Madonna

It's kind of disappointing that there may be no deluxe reissue(s) before the tour starts or even during the tour. It would be the perfect time to release something.

I was listening to Celebration and it is a strong collection. The non-chronological order just reaffirms how bulletproof her singles are.

But it does lose points for me with no Deeper and Deeper (among others)...

I don't want Mother to tell Mike Dean to add some oontz oontz on the 12" Extended Austrian Drumapella Dub and get Aldo Diaz to add a brush font on the artwork.

That isn't the impression I get from that quote at all though nn

I´m absolutely sure there will be physicals. Madonna is one of those artists who always does very well with physical products.

Does anyone know if the Madame X Tour LP is happening, or were the photos of the cover just a hoax?

They are going to wait RSD before announcing new stuff.

Late, but I saw the MDNA tour the night Obama won reelection. I remember her asking the crowd right before Holiday asking people what was happening and then screaming "HE WON" / kept singing "I'm so happy". Then she came out for Celebration at the end wearing an Obama shirt ddd. It was the first time I was allowed to vote and it was crazy to experience such a historic event with her and I'll always cherish the memory. Joyous.

Feel ancient. I remember putting it into the CD player and being unsure what to think.

Have warmed a lot to it over the years and it’s a solid pop album with some great hooks.

Out midnight local time.

The Missy remix finally on streaming? I prayed for times like this.

JMRGBY · Apr 20, 2023

I wonder why they added some Die Another Day mixes to this?

LTG · Apr 20, 2023

Looks like that’ll be the radio edit on there too, as it’s still showing as unavailable and non-explicit.

The releases are mirroring whatever was on the american CD singles at the time.

That makes sense.

That was on the European single.

Looking forward the release of the Mixshow LP tomorrow. The back cover is stunning.

Oh that's quite nice!

Love the Oakenfold and Felix mixes, Missy is a miss and Peter also delivers (twice). American Life is a comparatively subdued album, but it's got plenty of prizes (Intervention being an all time Madge marvel if you ask me), remixes galore (Love Profusion, Hollywood, Nothing Fails), glimpses of underrated production (I'm So Stupid) and some really didn't come to life until being performed live (Nobody Knows Me). It's like the execution of it all is simultaneously off in places and yet totally rewards more patient listening. However, I do find some of the material that others rave about to be a bit of a bore (sorry Easy Ride and X-Static Process fans) and a big highlight for me, Mother and Father, gets it so right and so wrong at the same time it's impossible to know which. Perhaps because it lacks the sure-fire instant gratification of Music's side-splitting disco thrills, its more discreet direction and intentions passed me by a bit at the time. However, in 2023 I give the album a B+
