Madonna fans got a preview of one of her new Confessions II tracks this weekend courtesy of Martin Garrix. “Bizarre,” a song that will appear on Madonna’s imminent album release (street date: July 3), had a surprise debut during Garrix’s performance at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, Saturday night (June 13).
Garrix played “Bizarre” set to a pulsing dance beat and amplified with a light show in pink and purple, the apparent color scheme of the Confessions II era. His June 13 gig was the third of a trio of nights at Barclays on his Americas Tour.
On Sunday evening, Garrix shared a video featuring the song sneak peek from Saturday’s concert on Instagram.
“Who knew love could be so bizarre?” Madonna’s heard singing on the track’s hook. “Only love could be so bizarre.”
“Bizarre” is track 10 on Madonna’s 16-song collection Confessions II, and the fourth tune to be teased ahead of the July release of her 15th full-length studio album. She first released album opener “I Feel So Free,” followed by the Sabrina Carpenter collab “Bring Your Love,” in April. “Love Sensation” arrived in early June.
Confessions II, the sequel to 2005’s Confessions on a Dance Floor, has her reuniting with producer Stuart Price and is the first album she’ll release since her return to Warner Records. It Madonna’s first new album in several years, following the 2019 Billboard 200 chart No. 1 Madame X.
Madonna recently unveiled CONFESSIONS II – The Film, which premiered at Tribeca Festival in New York City and is now available to watch on YouTube. In early June she also performed a surprise pop-up show in celebration of Pride Month in Times Square — marking the official launch of the new venue The Square on Broadway and 47th Street.
