Im very happy to have the singles on streaming. I just didn't realise they would repeat the exact release schedule from 40 yrs ago to finally get them all on

She's really pushing this Deadpool Like A Prayer tie in. hmmm something feels like home. Cherish coming next week The silver Like A Prayer release ...There's a hint of patchouli in the air.... ....GOD?....

Those links just take me to her Spotify page. I am confusion.

I need at least five PreMadonna songs for the new film soundtrack. I really think Stuart could be the guy to re-record a whole album of PreMadonna stuff with her. Think the I Love New York demo and some of the Blondie moments in Confessions era.

I don’t mind if the reissues are shelved just give us something else. A new album! It’s been five years for gods sake. Three years since the deal and two years since her last compilation. The sporadic nature of digital singles, the decline in effort there and the random one off 12 inches with such little appeal. For the greatest female artist of all time. It seems like a real missed opportunity is all when it seems there was a real effort to boost her streaming numbers , presumably to bolster a new album. The reissues would have been a great thing to tide over her baron creative period. Let her have a rest with no pressure. We’re just so in the dark I suppose. My bet is we’re not getting anything til the biopic has boosted her international presence now so these will be 2026 at least.

Did she tell you she got your email but it was a long time AFTER the fact ?

Russel Tovey for Guy Ritchie. Muscled cheeky English lad. Perfect fit if a bit tall. Stuart Price cast as Ingrid.

The silver editions are utterly pointless let's be honest. It's exactly the kind of thing Warner were at liberty to do BEFORE resigning with Madonna. Ain't nothing to see her. If anything they take the element of something new out of any actual expended box set releases. "oh another one" etc.

“Madonna is reissuing LIKE A PRAYER this summer to celebrate the acclaimed album’s 35th anniversary. Pressed on opaque silver vinyl, it will be the second release from the Silver Collection, a series of limited-edition vinyl reissues celebrating 40 years of Madonna’s illustrious career. The Silver Collection debuted last year with True Blueand will continue to spotlight other Madonna albums in the coming months.” Madonna has worked particularly hard for months personally curating just the right colour of silver for the vinyl. Prison Bar Silver "you can't get that shade anymore"

I can only Imagine Dress You Up is being saved for the 40th Anniversary of Madonnas debut tour The Virgin Tour which is April 10th 2025. In fact with Madonnas tours being a huge part of her legacy it wouldn't surprise me if they launch the beginning of the entire reissues series around this time. Quarter four 2024 will likely be devoted to the Celebration Tour audio and theatrical release. I honestly wouldn't be mad if they based the reissues around the tours they supported. Bit of a damp spot for Bedtime Stories admittedly. Now the singles are all digitally released I can't see any reason for them to be reissued on a deluxe CD or whatever but I know some of you would like that for a Super Deluxe perhaps. I personally would like shelved mixes, unreleased and maybe even new remixes. The live tour audios however: I wonder if the hold up with some of the re-issues is Madonna going back over all the many archived professional recordings of her previous tours and fine tuning the audio and maybe even re-editing the concert footage for a new experience. I can't imagine she would want some of those early tour vocals re-issued to the world. I love the rawness but I imagine when watching them back she has other thoughts. They probably lead with the landmark main album of the era (Like A Virgin, True Blue, Like A Prayer, Erotica, Ray Of Light) but it would be a good way to get the other less headline albums housed in an era. A three punch release per era would be quite the flex. Tour & Two supporting albums. The Virgin Tour - Like A Virgin + Madonna Who's That Girl - True Blue & Who's That Girl OST Blond Ambition - Like A Prayer & I'm Breathless The Girlie Show - Erotica + Immaculate Drowned World Tour - Ray Of Light & Music could throw Bedtime in here too technically. Warner has recently been tying Prince releases in with Live Shows. Diamonds & Pearls. 1999 and Sign 'O' The Times Who knows. And are they considering landmark albums as the ones that sold the most or the ones that were cultural touchstones. Sales wise from 2017 (7 years out of date) True Blue - 22.5 Like A Virgin - 21.2m Ray Of Light -16m Like A Prayer - 14.2m Music - 10.7m Madonna - 9.6m Confessions - 9.3m Bedtime Stories - 7.5m Erotica - 6.8m I'm Breathless - 6.7m WTG OST - 5.4m Hard Candy - 3.6m American Life - 3.3m MDNA - 1.8m Rebel Heart - 0.9m Makes me lol when fans try to big up Hard Candy. Coming after Confessions it should have absolutely smashed. Instead it sold the same as her biggest flop American Life. Anyway..just thoughts while we wait.

Anyway that all looks very Lady Gaga to me.

Hmmm Intersting the France connection. Didn't David just say Joan of Arc was his favourite song of his moms and just perform it?

If Like A Prayer has a moment with the Deadpool soundtrack then it would make sense for the Like A Prayer reissue to come first.
