Madonna 'Hung Up' on new single

NEW YORK - Madonna has chosen "Hung Up" as the first single from her new album, "Confessions on a Dancefloor."

No release dates have been unveiled for either item, but both are expected in the Northern autumn via Warner Bros. Madonna told ABC's "The View" in June that the new album is dominated by dance music and will likely be supported by a tour in 2006.

The set will be the follow-up to 2003's critically maligned album "American Life," which debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200, but posted the lowest sales of any Madonna album to-date (657,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan).

Her official Web site says "Hung Up" was produced by Stuart Price, who previously served as the musical director on Madonna's 2004 Re-Invention tour. That outing will be the subject of a DVD due out near year's end.
