NEW YORK - Madonna has finalized the track list for her new album, "Confessions on a Dancefloor."
Producer Stuart Price tells Billboard the 12-track set, due November 15 via Warner Bros., is continuously mixed, flowing from one track to the next, and that closer "Like It or Not" was the perfect choice to conclude the album.
"Basically, it's Madonna saying, 'This is who I am. This is what I do. Take it or leave it,'" Price said of the track during a Q&A at the 12th annual Billboard Dance Music Summit in New York last week.
Price -- who was the musical conductor on Madonna's Re-Invention tour -- said the entire album, including the vocals, was recorded in his home studio in London. Apparently, he has a female neighbour who cries throughout the day and night. So, if you listen closely, "you may hear her on background vocals," Price said with a laugh.
The album's first single, "Hung Up," is currently featured in ads for the new Motorola/iTunes phone. The cut is available as a ringtone via MTV.com and VH1.com. Its accompanying video was to directed by photographer David LaChapelle, but he and Madonna reportedly had creative differences over its concept. It is unknown who has come on board to complete the clip.
Here is the track list for "Confessions on a Dancefloor":
