HolidayGuy Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Sh surely can't have three songs each from American Life and Hard Candy- she just can't, even if she is Madonna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I can not WAIT!!! till the official tracklisting is revealed. I dont know if people will be "celebrating" or be in an uproar and start a riot. I guess we will have to wait and find out. Oh boy, that is def gonna take a while..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluejean Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 It seems like 'Celebration' is out way too early. Maybe they are planning on pushing 'Revolver' in the US when the album is released? That would makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherish Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 My bet would be that the only song from "Hard Candy" that makes the cut will be "4 Minutes". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed-still Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hey, I saw this on Drownedmadonna.com, an ad from WB for Celebration: ad Not bad, huh? Although it's a bit odd they didn't use more clips from different videos. (Sorry I don't know how to embed videos.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mightycomfort Posted August 2, 2009 Author Share Posted August 2, 2009 Right, here is my thoughts. The video shows songs that I don't think will be on the cd but will be on the dvd. I really cant see 3 songs off HC on this collection. However the words on the newspaper behind the images are ones that will be the cd songs - like inlay lyrics in the cd booklet? If that is the case - I think maybe these are definite sightings for the cd lyrics or confirmed by WB Evrybody Holiday Lucky Star Material Girl Live to tell papa dont preach whos that girl like a prayer express yourself vogue justify my love secret take a bow you must love me ray of light beautiful stranger music dont tell me die another day hung up 4 minutes miles away have i missed any?

bliss Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 This should've been a 3 disc set. She had so many hits. I have a feeling this CD and DVD will be along the lines of Ultimate Kylie rather than POPART. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Danny86 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 ^ I disagree about Sorry, it was one of her biggest hits worldwide! No it was not. It's her lowest selling UK #1 and just because it topped airplay charts of Europe riding the coattails of "Hung Up", it wasn't one of her biggest hits at all. In several EU countries "GI2M" did just as well as "Sorry". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In several EU countries "GI2M" did just as well as "Sorry". it was an airplay hit, it was all over the place when i lived in europe, it was a big hit in LatinAmerica. i dont know about chart positions or sales, but Sorry it was definitely one of the few major hits she has had in the 00's. i dont count the US of course.

Ciccone's Cheeks Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 while I think Gi2M was a better and bigger hit in terms of sales and quality, Sorry was #1 in the UK - (and came right after HU!), so that alone makes it worthy to WB Im sure. As for any Evita or Amerian Life song - NOT necesssary lol - no one would care lol, yet, I see that Warner feels obligated to gove some respect to those songs, or else its admitting officially those songs are utter shit lol. Anyways, I really hope Ellen or Kelly Rippa got a hold of Celebrate so they could pimp it out this week!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Danny86 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 it was an airplay hit, it was all over the place when i lived in europe, it was a big hit in LatinAmerica. i dont know about chart positions or sales, but Sorry it was definitely one of the few major hits she has had in the 00's. i dont count the US of course. I didn't say it wasn't a hit, but calling it as one of her biggest hits is a huge stretch. In fact the case of "Sorry" is exactly what some fans don't like about radio, that someone scores a megahit and then radio jumps on the follow up and plays the hell out of it, no matter what song it is. Just that it happened outside the USA (unlike something like "Shake It Off"). Songs like that these days can barely make an impact and I would not say "Sorry" is still remembered, unlike "Hung Up" or "4 Minutes". "Give It 2 Me" was a big airplay hit in several EU markets too but it's called a flop here because US and Australian radio refused to play it. "Miles Away" was a #1 airplay hit in Germany, yet it's perceived as her biggest ever flop, next to "One More Chance" & "Love Profusion". Also, because of Japan, "MA" sold more than "Sorry" even. I'm just saying that this should be consequent, if in one case being played a lot on radio is a hit, then why a flop in another case? Or if radio refuses to make something a hit, should Madonna be forbidden to include that single on a compilation, as if it was her own fault that in the 80s she released anything and that became a top 5 airplay hit, yet these days she's only allowed to score one hit per album? Of course most likely both "Sorry" and "GI2M" will end up on Celebration because Madonna likes to push her more recent work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just because radio decides to keep it in their playlist, it's already a CLASSIC and REMEMBERED? That's quite biased. By the way, I'm sure you know "GI2M" did even better in Belgium, it was in the top 3 forever. Is it also her biggest hits this decade then?

Yes, that's how it works...but there's no point in comparing her newer material 2 the stuff from her golden 80's era..the market is different..her audience is different etc.. . You can bet ur ass 'Sorry' sold her a lot of COAD albums in the EU...That song was everywhere & people loved it. ----> Hit By the way, I'm sure you know "GI2M" did even better in Belgium, it was in the top 3 forever. Is it also her biggest hits this decade then? No, 'cuz GI2M sold less than 'Sorry' in Belgium & it did virtually nothing 4 the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bluejean Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 'Sorry' was a bigger hit than 'Give it 2 me,' there is no dispute. As for 'Miles Away,' please. Who are they making this CD for? Japan or the world? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SuperPop Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Sorry was a huge hit over Europe and it is one of Madonna's biggest hits over 00s...the fact that COADF had sold so many copies over holidays hurt some of the sales of the second single... no one remembers GI2M which was a moderate hit for Madonna's standards..the fact that it sold almost the same copies as Sorry in the UK is simply because the singles market has explode since then...Sorry was released during the lowest selling period (February) when the UK single market was facing its worst phase and the album had sold bucketloads.. so there isn't any comparison between Sorry and GI2M...

songkaiwen Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 Based on the UWC, Sorry had 5.1 million points, half of which is sales. While GI2M Had about 2.9 million, half of which is sales. Don't get me wrong, I really love GI2M, but Sorry was the song that got me into Madonna in the first place, and it IS a big hit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I really love GI2M, but Sorry was the song that got me into Madonna in the first place, and it IS a big hit! The UWC is not an official chart. "Sorry" got that high there because a UK sales and airplay #1 gave it a lot of points. You can't know how much of it is sales. But "Sorry" is not a worldwide million seller anyway, it sold less than 200k in the UK. As for radio creating classics, so what about the arguments from certain chart fans here, who say Mariah has no classics and radio keeps shoving her stuff down on people's throats, but that doesn't mean they actually like them? And surely HolidayGuy will remind all of us that none of the ROL singles receive notable airplay in the USA. This whole "remembered" and "classic" thing is very subjective and obviously everyone is giving excuses for the songs they are fans of. Especially because radio is not able to hold most of Madonna's songs in their playlist these days. I wonder what will the reactions be when "Celebration" is dropped after October, after it most likely reached #1 on every European airplay chart.

Mattress Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 UPDATED with "Erotica" and "La Isla Bonita" (8/3) Okay, so between the press release, the lyric sheet on madonna.com and the official teaser ads, we have: Everybody Holiday Lucky Star Like A Virgin Material Girl Into The Groove Live To Tell Papa Don’t Preach Open Your Heart La Isla Bonita Who’s That Girl Like A Prayer Express Yourself Cherish Vogue Justify My Love Erotica Secret Take A Bow You Must Love Me Frozen Ray Of Light Beautiful Stranger Music Don’t Tell Me Die Another Day Hung Up 4 Minutes Miles Away Celebration Revolver That makes for 31 of the 36 tracks. "Borderline," "Crazy For You," "Dress You Up," "True Blue" (I know, I know) and "Deeper And Deeper" are the others I would like to see. The handling of this release has far exceded my expectations!

Guest Danny86 Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 ^Yeah, only 7 are unconfirmed, but I think "Borderline", "Crazy For You", "La Isla Bonita" are 100% there and "Dress You Up" is 99%. So 3 places left but still several contenders: - This Used To Be My Playground - something from Erotica - You'll See - a third ROL song (otherwise same amount from ROL as HC) - American Pie - Sorry (otherwise 1 song from COADF, like AL) - Give It 2 Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
