Guest Borderline Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 A “Celebration” Of Madonna Music - The Ultimate Greatest Hits Collection September 28th Release July 22, 2009 - For Immediate Release (Burbank, California) Madonna, who has racked up a record 37 top 10 hits as well as seven No. 1 albums (including her last four) on the Billboard Pop Charts, has given her fans yet another opportunity to “celebrate” her musical achievements. Today, Warner Bros. Records officially confirmed the September 28th release of “CELEBRATION” – the ultimate compilation of Madonna songs. The songs on “Celebration” have all been remastered and selected by Madonna and her fans. They cover the expanse of the Material Girl’s extraordinary career of hits including “Everybody,” “Express Yourself,” “Vogue” and “4 Minutes.” “Celebration” will be available in a two-CD set as well as a single CD. There will also be a “Celebration” DVD released simultaneously which includes the video visionary’s best videos including several that have never before been available on DVD. “Celebration,” the CD will also include two new songs that were recently recorded in New York City. The first single, also titled, “Celebration,” co-produced by Madonna and Paul Oakenfold, will be released August 3rd. A video for the single, which will be included on the “Celebration” DVD was just filmed in Milan, Italy and was directed by long time Madonna collaborator Jonas (“Ray of Light”) Akerlund. Several dance club remixes of “Celebration” are headed to the clubs on July 24th. The song will also be available on CD and vinyl maxi. Radio will receive the “Celebration” single on August 3rd. The cover for “Celebration” was created by street pop artist “Mr. Brainwash” who is best known for “throwing modern cultural icons into a blender and turning it up to eleven.” Madonna, a multi Grammy award winning singer, writer and producer has had over 12 No. 1 singles and has a record-smashing 39 No. 1 singles on Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Songs Chart – by far the most of any artist in the over 30 year history of the list.

HolidayGuy Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Not me- I rarely complain here. She just doesn't have the best writers for her press releases, is all. I closed the other topic, as all discussion should go here now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickens Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I just wish they would give us a tracklisting (for both versions). Surely that has been finalized by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lymon Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Wow it looks like Warners/Madonna are putting some effort into this GH! Finally Madge will have the GH she deserves!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt420 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 The DVD is a nice surprise!! Can't wait. It all sounds fantastic. I guess they are taking a more comprehensive approach to the set since Everybody is on the CD. and July 24th is TOMORROW!!! So hopefully at least a club mix will leak.

Guest Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I wonder what songs "have never been on DVD"? Perhaps Erotica, ITG, HU, Sorry, 4M, JML? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightshade Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 FINALLY! September 28 sounds good. On the 29th (in the U.S. I am assuming), Streisand and Nelly Furtado have albums coming out too - although Nelly's is an all-Spanish affair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed-still Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 O M G! I can't wait for the dvd and the new songs! And they're remastered--which means the Like a Prayer songs will pop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightshade Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 There will also be a “Celebration” DVD released simultaneously which includes the video visionary’s best videos including several that have never before been available on DVD.

GimmeSomeMo Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Great news about the DVD and the single disc (will appeal to more casual fans) and nice to finally have concrete news. Let the Celebration era begin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svperstar Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 EVERYBODY But why oh why are they bothering with a single-disc edition? Might as well just flush her catalogue down the TOILET, Warners. Stick to the damn 2-DISC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I wonder what songs "have never been on DVD"? Perhaps Erotica, ITG, HU, Sorry, 4M, JML? "Don't Tell Me" wasn't on DVD either, right? It was on the enhanced CD single -- but unlike "Music" and "What It Feels Like for a Girl," the video did not get a DVD release. AND -- although this would probably not be the vehicle for their release -- let's not forget that NONE of her tour videos ("Paradise (Not for Me)" - "Bedtime Story" (Re-Invented Remix) - "Future Lovers / I Feel Love" - "Die Another Day " (Sticky & Sweet) - to name a few) have ever been released on DVD. They appear, but they're usually intercut with the onstage action. Wouldn't "Erotica" and "JML" cause the same problem that we had with the 92:99 video collection (which became 93:99 after the removal of "Erotica")? Parental Advisory?
