cosmic_system Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Candy Shop 2008 It's called MEDLEY because there are elements of the Donnie Darko soundtrack in the intro and of other songs during the song, but it's not a new version since it sounds very similar to the album version. You can't say the same about, for example, Vogue 2008, Music 2008 or Like A Prayer 2008 because the instrumental has nothing to do with the original song.

Supernatural Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 some of these songs on the live CDs are starting to repeat now (like Vogue on both IGTTYAS and S&S) so they may want to label them as being different as much as possible for past and future live CDs.

Just containing a few 'elements' doesn't make it a medley - Candy Shop 2008 would be ok but by definition, it ain't a medley and would many of the songs she has done on tours would be medlies as they often contain bits of other songs.

Listen, I'm not saying it's right or something but this is the reason why they called the songs medley and 2008 on the this release. And really....WHO CARES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolidayGuy Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Yes- I meant sung elements of various songs, strung together. Anyhow, as said, not a major deal. I'll probably get it at Target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernatural Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 I don't think they wanted to label a song that came out in 2008 as '2008'. And this is currently #4 on Amazon, I wonder if she'll score a top 10 album with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 After seeing the UK performance, I doubts that it will even break the top 20 (as Confessions Tour did). Amazon.com now has the CD/DVD combo for $14.98. Wondering if I should just get it from there, and get The Best of Match Game DVD to get the free shipping.

rafter69 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 just picked up my copy. our best buy only had 2 copies when i got there. I'm sure they didnt have much more than that anyway. Kinda surprises me considering when Confessions came out, then ordered tons. they had quite a few single disc Celebrations, and a few Hard Candy and a few Confessions on a dance floor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonski43 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I remember HMV had quite a few. I think it was £15 so dearer than the supermarkets, unsurprisingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafter69 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 i already posted my report a few spots above, but i forgot the price...it was 16.99 at our best buy. about normal for this area. i think confessions was about the same. Only Gonna tell you a secret cost more. that was something like 22 dollars here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolidayGuy Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Don't be laughing at my Match Game love. It's one of the most ACCLAIMED game shows eva. As a reference, The Confessions Tour opened with 40K- maybe this will do half of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Topaz Scorpio Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Picked up the Blu-Ray at Best Buy today for $17.99. They only had one copy alphabetically in the Blu Ray section. There were none in the new Blu Ray releases area (and no tags for one) and none in the music video area. This one copy was stacked flush up against two other different DVDs which tells me this was the only copy they had and not one that was left after others had sold. How do they expect to move copies of this if stores have virtually none to sell??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to Target in hopes to find the Blu Ray version and none there either. So I just grabbed the DVD/CD version for $14.98 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadFan Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I went RED HUNTING *UP* and DOWN the FLORIDA COAST (well, just Toronto but it's a Golden Girls reference) for this fucker and found NOTHING.

Madfan58 Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Out of the 5 Best Buys in my area, only one carried the Blu Ray. I went to the store, had trouble finding it. There were only 2 copies. There were numerous copies of the CD/DVD format and they were in the new release section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
