DrownedMadonna is pleased to share some tidbits with fellow fans, about HEY YOU, Madonnas Live Earth song.

To stop some speculation, we can tell you the song is NOT a Duet.

So far the song is NOT scheduled to be served to radios. It is NOT a commercial single. Its JUST for live earth.

IT is original and NOT a cover ( not the Pink Floyd song ). The song is about making a difference, loving yourself and others. It is a simple song, not at all like Confessions music. You can call it a Mid tempo beat.
