No no no no no... It's the easiest thing in the world. Believe me. And we talk about best selling records woman of the world... Not Tori Amos or whoever who sold just a few a long time ago (sorry I just thought about her as an example...). Digital release require 2 hours of work for a record company such as Warner. Once again, it's not a little record company with 5 people working for it. I saw the process at Universal Music France and they add some music every week a global platforms and it's just a very simple and repetitive process. Regarding the so called remastering, digitalizing a mixed tape is $60 and a multitrack is around $200. Making a mastering of a song that was already released is very fast and one people is required.

Why couldn’t they upload the original 1080 master sent to broadcast?!?!?

You all simply don't understand They are going for Bedtime Stories vibes and teasing the first reissue by doing this!

i'm surprised she did not go with posting ALL the live versions available of Candy Shop in there.

100% on purpose, the slight key mis match/clash was part of their sound. I love it I read she asked them personally to remix Fever after she heard Liberty City's Some Lovin at the Sound Factory , which they produced

I am done.

I have to laugh at people making a screenshot of every single frame in a video 😂

she can't even afford real pearls so ...

Nah I suspect they are Swarovski crystals -she's tagged Swarovski -

She's a commercial pop artist and Warner are a record company. If you thought the campaign wasn't about making money, sorry to burst your bubble, love, cause yes, it's about that.

+ New big peaks today: "Material Girl" ("Celebration" Version): 335M "La Isla Bonita": 279M "Like A Prayer" ("Celebration" Version): 269M "Into The Groove": 98M "Frozen" ("Ray Of Light" Album Version): 67M

Since that insta reel she did with Candy Shop as background music, writing the titles of her most famous songs and asking which one we would like to hear, i'm 100% sure she's perfectly aware of our Candy Shop fatigue and she'll probably troll us with it in one way or another. think bout those "3 notes" Tony talked about...definitely the 3 repetitive ones from the intro (the signature of Pharrell on all his songs). I can hear the screams, the meltdowns, i picture that scene from "Death Becomes Her" when Goldie Hawn in group therapy wants to talk about Madeline Ahston again.

YES PLEASE, we need that candy background holographic/lenticular XDDDDDD

Yeah, I didn't pay attention to the tags, so very well pointed out. And you're right, just because one can afford it doesn't mean they always wear the real thing. On a side note, do you remember the Oscars 91 incident? She was wearing $20 million in Harry Winston diamonds, and of course, one of her earrings fell off into her hair. She tossed the earring off stage. Oh I am sure the Winston crew gasped in horror. LOL!

Is it that hard to understand that we're probably getting lots of little goodies but only one big release each year/every couple of years and that "Finally Enough Love" was the first big release, last year, and a year after the announcement was made? Just because you're not getting what you want at the moment you want it it doesn't mean the campaign isn't been going on for two years already.

People not only want but clearly buy them, how's that pointless? Especially for something like Hard Candy LP which is hard to get these days.

The 40the anniversary is in July. It was NOT 2 years ago. Let’s look AGAIN at what it was written: In 2022, when Madonna celebrates the 40th anniversary of her recording career (she first signed a record deal with Warner’s Sire Records in 1982), an “extensive, multi-year series of catalog releases will launch” -Who’s That Girl EP - Finally Enough Love -Erotica Picture Disc -Everybody -American Life EP And that’s what they did since last year. They NEVER said the first deluxe was going to be released last year. And we are still in fucking April.

It´s been 15 years since that Gem was realised. I think it´s an amazing album, and you know what? I love it. And what´s more, she loves it too, specially Candy shop, which I hope it´s on her next Celebration Tour, as it should!!

The HC15 tracklist - girl what is that? Those random live versions and remixes in place of the album mix

Received my copy today, and I can't stop playing it. Banger after banger. Definitely my favorite release from her since FEL!

She's just waking up from a fuzzy dream

“Re-releases take so much hard work and time to curate. These EPs and Vinyl releases are keeping me happy and fed. So much exciting content in the next 12 months” … NOTHING TAKES 2 YEARS TO CURATE She writes her damn original albums quicker than that

One of my favorites from the Hard Candy sessions is "Across The Sky". I've always been a big fan of it

I would die if she releases the Deluxe black cover edition with candies from 2008! "Original candies, do not consume" Bonus Tracks: 4 Minutes (Tracy Young Still Waiting Dub) Voices (Non Distorted Version) Candy Shop (Instrumental)

This looks awful.

WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING, They all are delusional at Warner

great topic! I have always thought so myself, cause the key variation between the instr and the vocals is quite evident...yet i find the remixes deliciously addictive, for sure in my top 10 of all of her (remix) discography

As long as these reissues are handled better than George Michael’s and Michael Jackson’s I’m happy.

People in here acting like uploading an EP in 2023 is hard work

Good guess… A lot of her fans like to believe they are expert audio engineers and prefer to clog their phones with their own mp3s/WAVs (or whatever) rather than to stream… 🙄😂😜

Exactly - it’s probably the easiest thing for record companies to do now - no production of physical media - the files are mostly already digital . All m has to do is say “ fuck yeah “ or “ fuck no “ so people stop banging on about this process being hard work please - it’s just the norm now - the streaming is only really trying to get new fans so they can just spend more time glued to their phones - the real “meat “ should be for die hard fans who want box sets …

Just bc someone can afford it doesn't mean they always wear the real thing. Coco Chanel once said wearing real diamonds was vulgar that's why Chanel jewelry, a high luxury brand, is typically the fake stuff. Plus @Jackie mentioned Swarovski, which is what I was thinking too.

Thank you Guram..................OH MY AGELESS Goddess!! That look TRULY chic!!!! I TRULY want to have that!!!!

Why would the reissue of FEL derail anything? Theres an emphasis put on vinyl because ip until this year it’s the only physical format that actually makes money and there’s a big demand for Madonna vinyl. And yes there’s a lot of work in putting these EPs on streaming. The songs need to be sourced, converted, tagged, covers need to be retrieved (even if the quality sucks), paperwork, royalties etc. it’s much more than you adding the songs to your iTunes library. And Rhino is in charge of many artists not just Madonna

Unfortunately it's a video taken from Instagram, I couldn't do better than this .. but since I doubt it will come out in better quality here it is: 1984.04 Molly Meldrum Interview- NYC Rockefeller Plaza *** Link Removed ***

I think because of the high demand of the FEL50 6LP, I think this is wonderful that Warner/Rhino is feeding the girls in time for Pride Month. The vinyls look so vibrant. :D

Made mine already.

And what did they do to her face in that still?!
