GroovyGirl Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 It's less than 2 weeks til the album is with us so SURELY the reviews should be imminent?! Post them in here as and when they come out! this is the only kind of "reviews" we'll see for celebration: "2 CD edition. 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. 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." :vanitybonet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carta Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Wait... Doesn't it come out on the 29th? How is that less than 2 weeks away? Only eight days to wait for Australians....it hits shelves on Friday the 18th here, so it will be out at least eight hours before those few European countries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debord Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Well I don’t know about other countries but the music press in the UK always reviews greatest hits albums, and such a high-profile one will definitely be reviewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasori84 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Well I don’t know about other countries but the music press in the UK always reviews greatest hits albums, and such a high-profile one will definitely be reviewed.

Braby Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Music reviewers are usually alcholics and complete delusionals, but even the most warped wouldn't be stupid enough to rate this compilation lower than a NINE. They might disagree with the tracklisting, versions used or the general composition of the package but the CONTENT of Celebration will surely garner spectacular reviews. The next issue of Q is out later this week so there should be a decent review in there, though major STUDIO releases will probably feature more prominently.

Doesn't Q usually come out on the 1st of the month? They have a separate section for 're-issues' anyway (which this would come under) so I imagine it would feature prominently in there.

loomer Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Some spaccers on Amazon have already reviewed it. Well yes, we KNOW the songs, but they're remastered so you should wait to hear it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayGuy Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 The Immaculate Collection received glowing revieews, so with this containing 20 TIC-era tracks, I'd expect a pretty good reception. Tack on some other goodies, and bingo. There are some tracks that weren't exactly ACCLAIMED hits, that could weight it down a tad (i.e. "Hollywood," "4 Minutes"), but neither was "Take a Bow." Entertainment Weekly's review of TIC was supberb (I don't recall a GHV2 review in the magazine, though), so hopefully it will review Celebration.

loomer Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 4 Minutes is FABULOUS I expect Die Another Day to be highlighted as a low point in the reviews. I had a look at the monthlies and have the new Uncut and Mojo, unsurprisingly no reviews yet.. we'll have to wait a bit. Looks like they didn't go all out with the promos early.

Guest Danny86 Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I expect Die Another Day to be highlighted as a low point in the reviews. Don't you mean "Erotica"? This GHV2 review is my favourite, probably because they call WIFLFAG the worst song on it, rightfully so. http://www.slantmagazine.com/music/music_review.asp?ID=116 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolidayGuy Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 "Die Another Day" fared better than "4 Minutes" on year-end lists and such. Same for "Erotica"- but none were critical smashes. TIC is one of the most positively reviewed/acclaimed compilations ever, so Celebration has some mighty shoes to fill on that front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw that review before and I like Slant. Not sure about some of it though Don't Cry for Me Argentina gets a B+? and is "easily one of Madonna's greatest vocal performance to date" Even "Human Nature," Madonna's defiant retort to critics who tried to "silence" her, has been ironically self-censored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
