peter Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 ^ I would laugh, too, except Warner Bros. HAS been known to have some typos in their time. (Although, I imagine it is probably not genuine...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carta Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Is it released in New Zealand on the 18th? If not, Australia will be the first country in the entire world to have "Celebration" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Bitch Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I'm anticipating five star reviews for the single disk version and three and a half/four star reviews for the double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Danny86 Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I'm anticipating five star reviews for the single disk version and three and a half/four star reviews for the double. AS IF 4 non hits are a reason to give 1 and a half stars less. If anything, the 1 CD will have worse reviews because you can't make a proper Madonna compilation on one CD.

It's more to do with the media predictability and the fact that they'll say things like 'despite the odd moment of glory, she's never managed to equal her 80s output'. Warners are pandering to it really with the commercial which is heavily 80s weighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roma Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Is it released in New Zealand on the 18th? If not, Australia will be the first country in the entire world to have "Celebration" Yes l can't wait to see the response in Oz. Madonna and Australia are not tracking well at the moment and not even a physical release for the single. The music press in Melbourne are ignoring her.

I'm serious, and those bitches at JB-HiFi can die (I have my own problems with that place). Anyways the shipment of CD's is still wrapped up in storage, this is what I've been told.

Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 If it is in JB HIFI, they won't put it out till Friday the earliest, MAYBE even Thursday night in the city locations.

debord Posted September 16, 2009 Author Share Posted September 16, 2009 I can't believe this is out in a matter of days and there still hasn't been a single review!

There's no physical single in Australia because Warners Australia doesn't issue physical singles for *any* artist any more. The *only* Warner single in the Top 50 on the physical sales chart this week was released over six months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infiniblue Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 i'm honestly shocked at revolver not being released illicitly... they've done really well at keeping ONE SONG under relative security, aside of the preview clips being posted up early. i hope it's not like that at live nation, or else we'll never see gems like "liquid love" that were album-excluded see the light of day from here on... then again, that did take awhile. i'm still hoping for "across the sky" and "alone again" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loomer Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Mirror review http://blogs.mirror.co.uk/the-ticket/2009/09/album-review-celebration---mad.html This 36-track, double disc, definitive career- encompassing compilation conveniently follows Madge's recent expensive divorce. The stark reality though is that, as a cultural force, she peaked in 1989 with the superb Like A Prayer. Thereafter it's her image manipulation and media savvy that impress - far more than retro confections such as Hung Up. 3/5 OUCH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knocka Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Rolling Stone: 4 Stars “What? No ‘Hanky Panky’? Is this some kind of joke? Given how obsessive her fans are, it’s a thankless task for Madonna to assemble a two-CD hit collection. But from the opening one-two of ‘Hung Up’ and ‘Music,’ two of her best ever, Celebration kicks off with pure bliss and never lets up. It’s a dizzying, nonchronological spin through the Madonna years, years it makes you feel lucky to be living through. Her hitmaking genius is unmatched and—with the new Eurocheese blast ‘Celebration’ and the Lil Wayne duet ‘Revolver’—undiminished. It’s almost enough to make you forget that they left off ‘Angel,’ which is just plain crazypants.” —Rob Sheffield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
