Summary: 4 Minutes Too Long
Comment: Geez, I'd heard SO much about this so I decided to order the single. That was, perhaps, a mistake. The first two mixes--DEFINITELY the only from Dirty XL--are fine; after that, it's all downhill. I will have to agree with one other reviewer, Tracy Young's mix is just tired and Peter Rauhoffer's isn't much better. I expected so much more from them and was very disappointed in their inputs; neither delivered. I had hoped for a remix by Offer Nissam but that wasn't to be.
I'll wait for the release of the CD/album--whatever you want to call it. I just hope that if there are other songs remixed from it, they turn out better than the majority of these. Not worth your money except for the remix by Dirty XL.

Summary: 4 Minutes
Comment: I only rate this 5 stars due to the original mix itself. These mixes are a major disappointment. I don't think this song can really be remixed. It's perfect just the way it is. Timbaland did his job, and did it well.

Summary: Madonna needs some new Spicer remixes
Comment: Madonna's remixes lately have been very dull to say the lest,the remixes that where made commerically available for her last few cd-singles was very boring and annoying,typical "floor killers"
"hollywood" and "get together" are more recent ones that come to mind.....but there is hope in this group of floor movers....the best are "peter saves paris mix"
and "the bobsinclar space funk mix",....with a retro techno touch
but all in all great if your a die hard fan but not good for the casual listener..... i'll also recommend getting your hands on "Ashlee simpsons"
"Promo mixes" for "outta of my head"...their awesome party starters,quite wicked
dare i say it.....their actually better than madonna's "4 minutes remixes"

Summary: Good Remixes Salvage a Mediocre Track
Comment: I'm not a huge fan of the album version of this song. Thankfully, we have some talented remixers that make this song quite a bit more appealing by stripping out a lot of Timbaland's original production. The mixes are all quite different from each other too, ranging from moody and deep to classic club wreckers. Recommended.

Summary: 4 Minutes to Pass Time
Comment: Madonna's fascination with time...tick tock, waiting and hesitating (words that frequently appear in her lyrics). New single featureing Justin Timberlake is a slice of urgent urban pop with Timberland's signature big horns and beatbox and Timberlake's Michael-Jacksonish falsetto singing "We've got only 4 Minutes to save the World." The album version is addictive, all that tick-tocking.
On this maxi, Madonna uses several remixers including old-timer Tracy Young who already sounds uninspired and tiresome. Junkie XL does a decent job here with the remix which starts off with loud dance beats that eventually simmers to a slower groove about 2 minutes 40 seconds into the mix where Madonna starts singing verses over and over. The other worthy remix is the Rebirth Mix which when played in a club, is a sizzling anthem. Peter Saves Paris Mix is just a long regular remix which is nowhere as good as his promotional New York Mix. Bob Sinclair's remix is well, despite its title, hardly futuristic. It sounds more retro and dated. Even the Verizon exclusive remix of 4 Minutes by Timbaland himself sounds better than most of these mixes.
The problem with Madonna remixes now is that they are rather forgettable as Warner opts for safe remixers rather than cutting edge ones. (B-)
