She just released the Celebration Reissue which is a huge deal. Why are people complaining that there is no release for Record Store Day and no Album reissues. Clearly we are still getting all the promises on a regular basis even during the tour. Be grateful for the good stuff we are getting. Yes, we always get a RSD (or almost always) and I wanted something good but let’s appreciate the Celebration reissue.
Babe a vinyl reprint is in fact NOT a huge deal. Taylor Swift has released five studio albums and four re-records with a slew of re-recorded bonus tracks in the same time Madonna shat out Material Gworllls and that TikTok on Hung Up shite. Let’s not pretend mother has been slaving away for five years. She’s done a bit of co writing and a tour.
Thats nine Taylor records for her fanbase.. and we got some dusty old maxis uploaded and a couple of 12”vinyls and remixes reissued. I don’t expect Mom to have the same work ethic but she’s certainly ground to a halt somewhat.

To think that even these expanded/remastered will ever see the light of day, the discussion will not end because the mastering won't be good enough, the versions won't be the right ones, the booklets won't be exactly the same font...just...what is already being said for the digital singles...
That's also kind of a commercial angle that the record companies take. Not just with historical releases. Many artists release cd/ vinyl / tape / digital releases with different tracks on different variants to keep money rolling in.
Warner giving us everything we want?

I do love the idea of The Virgin Years but my only issue with lumping the first two together is that the Soundtracks songs and the premadonna stuff would be left out. The more defined the eras are the more chances of stuff we don't know about being included.
If there were six or seven tracks that remained in the vault for each era it would be an absolute gag.
I mean imagine if she's going one the Taylor Swift route and re-recording demos from that era with modern producers (or even pretending those demos were from that era (like Taylor swift has). It's also very possible she has gone back through her own diaries and song writing notes to work on new stuff that is housed round old song, melody or lyrics she's written that never got completed. Just because the Warner data base doesn't have stuff on record it's highly likely she has books worth of ideas and songs that just weren't the right fit. Many many many artists work like this.
Beyonce's Thique from Renaissance was from the Self Titled ten years earlier.
Liberian Girl from Michael Bad was written in 1983 for a Jacksons album and appeared four years later on Bad
Princes Strange Relationship from Sign O The Times in 87 was originally written in 83 before Purple Rain some four albums before it appeared.
George Michael has a few examples of this too.
Prince and Michael did this a lot.
If we must continue down the looking back route for the next five years I'd be much happier with this type of approach. Somehow it feels quote Madonna too.

Live To Tell was for Seans film and that has personal Madonna stuff in it.
This Used To Be My Playground the same.
Die Another Day is full of Madonna messages too.
I don't think we need to think so linear here. It's not how art works, it's very un madonna and not how artists think.
The lyrics very much sound like her response to The Poison Penns and some of them just don't seem to relate to the character of Landon. "Then we can keep our love alive" doesn't really relate to a couple who just fall in love at the end of the film to me but hey. They do sound like the words of a woman saying to her partner we dont have to fight all the time, it doesn't matter if you win or lose. You met your match when you met me etc.
The Look Of Love - "All the books I've read" Nikki Fin never read a book in her life.

1. Express Yourself
2. Vogue
3. Material Girl
Were talking Iconic here and I think those three are it.

I don't believe it has anything to do with her failing marriage. I think the real association is that it's the same title of a poorly received film. It's too bad though because I think most die hard fans still adore the film, even though we all pretty much agree it was ridiculously over the top and not a great film. Still, I love the movie and Niki Finn is one of my favorite movie characters from her.
Didn't she say the video for Rescue Me was made up of the Caio Italia footage because she felt it was a time in her life where she felt she needed rescuing? Anyways Either way the songs are fun and The Look Of Love is actually her most overlooked 80's single. It really was a window in to her work on Like A Prayer. It has the same DNA as Oh Father / Spanish Eyes and would not have sounded out of place on that album at all. Perfect after Til Death Do Us Part.

She needs to try some god damn new producers. She’s always going for new young artists why not branch out producer wise.
Tired cycle of Orbit, Mirwais and now potentially Stuart again. There’s only one man she should ever go back to and it’s Pat.
I’ve won the thread shut it down. -
Who’s That Girl was very much Madonna at her lowest point when her marriage was not going well and the relationship, which only lasted two years and she filed for divorce Dec 87 a few days after The Look Of Love was released. The marriage was in its baron wasteland. She withdrew and tried for another year in 88 while her career was sorta on hold and the divorce went through early 89 before Like A Prayer. The whole era probably feels too painful. Causing A Commotion has always been about her relationship with Sean.

A late day video and single release for a stale old cover version album track from the last decade?
is this what it’s come to?
Fuckin miss me on that one. Lord a mercy

To be fair, "Rebel Heart" gave us 25 official released songs and "Madame X" 18. That's worth 3 albums of her 11-12-13 tracks standard pre-"MDNA".
And "MDNA" gave us 16!
But yeah, a new single is due already. If she's not ready for the album she can go the singles route like everyone else.
Travel but the business model has changed. Plenty of songs on MDNA Rebel Heart and Madame X would have been left in the vaults before the streaming generation hit so her productivity has remained the same but more of it was used than before.
-
We’ve had one album since Rebel Heart which is a decade next year. And I thought 1988 was a bad year.
I honestly don’t need some huge laboured project I need more regular old style albums from her. 89-2005

anything Ukranian is not by chance right now.

A surprise album drop for Madonna would be a disaster. She's been away for five years I need 3-4 singles released before a sniff of the album. I need an era and her eras have been shorter and shorter for nearly 20 years now. 3 singles and out. At least we got a few more vids for Madame X but it's my least favourite campaign from her. I wish it had been Rebel Heart that got six videos.

It's one of these things
- The tour book
- A guest feature at Rio
- A second leg of the tour
- The first box set announcement
- A new single (probably for a new greatest hits now everyone has bought Celebration I fear)
but most likely Celebration tour being either PAY PER VIEW or screened in cinemas too like Pet Shop Boys Taylor & Beyonce.

I'd like the Hard Candy LP to be reissued again soon.
I call it Bitter Pill.
Which I always thought was its true meaning. Meaning the realisation that the fight, (boxing theme), for her marriage was over. A bitter pill (hard candy) to swallow. -

Fab but gutted that Into The Groove wont have its own release with the video edit and movie version.
Feel like it's a bit of a coup that we got the radio edit though. That's a real win. Nice little EP actually but the Burning Up alternate would have been perfection.
-
I think that random 3:51 version on streaming on the Madonna album is the best one anyway. If they replace that with the original album version when they do the Deluxe I'll be bothered. Its weird that on WIKI is says the 7" is 3:50 under the record cover but then all the track lengths say minimum of 4:10 on the formats.

True Blue is Iconic as fuck but there's just something about the simplicity of the debut and Madonna looking square on straight into your eye that is so powerful and beautiful and perfect.
I whole heartedly agree with it winning.
