    Well that’s what she said after the release, and it’s possible it was the original idea anyway but that doesn’t mean the soundtrack rumour isn’t true. 
    She said her idea was to have a Rebel side and an Heart side, basically what Beyoncé did with I Am Sasha Fierce. But Interscope rejected the idea.

    Not to be shady but if this is true it just goes to show how much of a mess Rebel Heart is.

    So I was waching the latest live episode of MLVC-The Madonna Podcast where they say that the reason that there were so many tracks recored for Rebel Heart was because Madonna was trying to get some songs on some soundtracks. The "sex songs" were intended for the 50 Shades Of Grey soundtrack and others like Messiah for The Giver soundtrack. Since the songs were rejected she decided to release them on her own album. 
    Now, I have a pretty good memory for rumours but it's the first time I hear this particular rumour. The latest soundtrack rumour I remember was about one of the Twilight soundtracks, since Guy Oseary one of the producer of the films (and I belive of the soundtracks too).
    Discuss!

    i thought the reason for that many songs was it was 2 albums? Rebel CD1 and Heart CD2 (i cant remember if they were supposed to be released at the same time or with months in between)

    "After a performance on American Bandstand in January 1984, television host Dick Clark asked Madonna what her dreams were. Her answer: “To rule the world.”
    The singer-songwriter was there to promote her self-titled debut album, which had taken over airwaves and dance floors the summer prior. This week marks the 40th anniversary of Madonna’s release — the eight track record that introduced Madonna to the mainstream and began her journey to pop superstardom.
    Before she was the Queen of Pop, Madonna was a budding creative looking for her big break. In 1978, she left the University of Michigan and moved to New York with just $35 to pursue a career as a dancer. She found work as a backup dancer, and even performed with the Alvin Ailey and Pearl Lang dance companies, before touring Europe with singer Patrick Hernandez.
    When Madonna returned to New York in the summer of 1979, she joined the new wave band Breakfast Club as their drummer. By the following year, she’d left Breakfast Club to form Emmy & The Emmys with musician Stephen Bray. However, after writing and recording a demo together, Madonna decided to promote herself as a solo artist.
    She regularly visited nightclubs to persuade DJs to play her solo demo tape. Her persistence paid off — Danceteria’s resident DJ Mark Kamins took a liking to Madonna’s music and arranged for her to meet Seymour Stein, the president and co-founder of Sire Records, who offered her a recording contract.
    Recording for Madonna began in the summer of 1982. The singer wrote the majority of the album’s songs and chose musician Reggie Lucas to produce the project. Unfortunately, Madonna clashed with Lucas when the tracks’ final versions didn’t live up to her expectations. She called in DJ John “Jellybean” Benitez to remix the songs — he also contributed the hit “Holiday” to the tracklist — before turning the record in to the label.
    Madonna was released in 1983 and straddled the line between dance and pop during the post-disco era. The use of digital instruments, like the Linn drum machine, Moog bass, and OB-X synthesizer gave the album its danceable, synth-pop sound. The polished production complemented Madonna’s bright soprano vocals as she sang tight, catchy refrains about romance, desire, power, and partying. The record peaked at No. 8 on the US Billboard 200, scoring Madonna her first top 10 album.
    The album spawned five singles and three of them — “Holiday,” “Borderline,” and “Lucky Star” — charted on the US Billboard Hot 100, peaking at Nos. 16, 10, and 4, respectively. Their accompanying music videos, supported by the rise of MTV, introduced Madonna’s star power to homes across the country and inspired young women to adopt her style.
    Madonna was a quintessentially ’80s album that pushed dance-pop to the forefront and set the standard for pop music in the decades that followed. As the world’s best-selling female recording artist and the most successful solo artist in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, her influence and impact cannot be overstated. Madonna’s subversiveness, attention to detail, willingness to break the rules, and penchant for reinventing herself turned her into a cultural icon and made her the blueprint for the modern pop star."

    Chris reacted to Donna in Record store day vinyls online   
    @DiieeegoFirst off, check Amazon to see if they have what you are looking for.  But if not, this is what I did, I checked out all the participating sites on the Record Store Day website.  Many have their own websites and allow you to order online from their stock.  Keep in mind, most sign an agreement to sell these items only AFTER RSD, but that's not related to what you are asking here. I only mention this because when RSD comes along again, these stores won't sell RSD releases online until at least the next day. 
    https://recordstoreday.com/
    Go to "participating stores".  There will be a long list of stores.  Some do not have online stores, but many do.  Many will ship even out of the country.  It might be a little time consuming, but it's worth it if you're looking for something specific that is hard to find even if it's not a Madonna RSD release you are looking for. Start with the big cities first, because they may have receive more stock and shipping probably will be quicker.
    Another source is Discogs, but beware that most are third party sellers, so there may be those misrepresenting what they have or scams.  But not all, just be careful.

    These are the three only official versions of this song. The others are local edits or edits done for various artist compilations (and most likely not official).
    Album Version (5:36) - This was released on the first few issues of the single, before it was replaced by Holiday as third single.
    Edit/7" Version (3:52) - Released on most of the later 7" issues of the single.
    Extended Dance Remix/New Mix/"New" Mix/US Remix Version/US ReMix Version (7:20) - Released on most of the later 12" issues of the single.
    _______________________________
    Q-Sound Mix (3:37) Shep Pettibone's remastered version from The Immaculate Collection
    Shep Pettibone Remix [2009 Remaster] (3:38) From Celebration, an alternate mix of Shep Pettibone's Immaculate Collection Version, probably made using his stems
    _______________________________ 
    TV Track (5:40) Leaked instrumental/dub version of the US Remix with backing vocals.
    Video Remix/Remix Edit (5:04) An edit of the US Remix used in the music video.
    Lucky Star (4:30) Brazil 16.272, a local edit from either the album version or the US Remix. It's hard to tell.
    Edit (3:54) from GoldDisc Various Artists Compilation, almost the same as the original 7" Edit but it has a false edit point during the intro. It's debatable whether this mix is official or not.

    idk but my first real contact was i think the song Music that was used in some game segment on the Ellen Show and i didnt like it (or so i told myself) cos i was a core Gaga stan at the time.
    then it wasnt until Living for Love's music video release that i gave her a real chance and loved the song and video.
    after that idk but i do remember listening to the itunes bonus track version of Celebration a lot and playing youtube playlists of her music videos
