[Loki 227]

Let's be honest, if she had released the demos, it would have been an interesting album. But the final product is just tragic, a really mess; it doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it, simply lots of songs are not my cup of tea. 

That's my Rebel Heart tracklist (random):

Living for love (demo with chorus) 

Ghosttown

Joan of Arc (acoustic demo) 

Messiah

Heartbreak City

Heaven (demo) 

Tragic Girl (demo) 

Never Let you go (demo) 

Nothing Lasts Forever (demo) 

Devil Pray

Queen

Wash All over Me

Please, don't boo me

[nito84bcn 2,734]

I love the album as it is. Best album of her in 2010's.

I don't understand why we have to change something that she wanted that way... 

[RebelMe 3,130]

Well, we can all agree that Avicii Heart is a bop

[jtrover 261]

I LOVE half the album, and am meh with the other half.  And there's a few I like, but I want to choose my favorites. Plus, the hell with bonus tracks. I think albums should just be albums with a standard tracklist, no more than 13 with the best songs (the way it used to be decades ago).  I also, naturally, have my preferences of mixes (but I'll only mention those if they're significantly different than album versions). 

 

Everyone's gonna HATE my choices, but this is how I organized it for myself years ago. Please don't hate me, lol.

 

MADONNA - REBEL HEART

01.Addicted 

02.Illuminati 

03.Devil Pray

04.Ghosttown

05.Hold Tight (Demo with MNEK mixed in with the album version as I love both)

06.Borrowed Time (Demo)

07.Living For Love

08.Wash All Over Me (Full Dance Demo)

10.Rebel Heart (Dance Demo)

11.Never Let You Go 

12.Inside Out 

12.Beautiful Scars (Demo)

13.Joan Of Arc (Acoustic)

 

* And I would put the "Joan of Arc" picture as the front cover, with the bloody heart in the hand picture on the back cover. I'd promote the album with the medieval aesthetic throughout the album. That picture with the face tied up I would burn it, so nobody could ever see it.

if she didn't release the demo versions it was because her fans leaking half of the recording session <3

I know it, I know it. It was a cursed project, 'cause potentially it could have been really interesting.

[gafuller 1,653]

I’m still considering a good disc 2 and EP of some of the demos but here my disc 1 I just listened through and liked:

Living for Love (Single Two)

Ghosttown (Single One)

Bitch I’m Madonna (Single Three)

Hold Tight (Single Four)

Joan of Arc

HeartBreakCity

Devil Pray

Holy Water

Bodyshop

Inside Out

Beautiful Scars

Rebel Heart

 

I like some of the other versions of some songs here but when it comes to listening to the whole album, I like the official stuff. I think this is a tidy song order and selection. I honeslty leave HBC and Inside Out off a lot but they make sense in the album as a whole. 

[Copenhagen Ciccone 134]

I wouldn’t change a lot - just take out the weakest tracks: Iconic, HeartBreakCity and Holy Water and put in the Avicii version of Rebel Heart + his version of Wash All Over Me as a bonustrack.

1. Living for Love

2. Devil Pray

3. Ghosttown

4. Unapologetic Bitch

5. Illuminati

6. Bitch I’m Madonna

7. Hold Tight

8. Joan Of Arc

9. Body Shop

10. Inside Out

11. Wash All Over Me

12. Rebel Heart (Avicii Version)

13. Bonustrack: Wash All Over Me (Avicii Remix)

 

Singles:

1. Living For Love (February 2015)

2. Ghosttown (April 2015)

3. Bitch I’m Madonna (July 2015)

4. Devil Pray (October 2015)

5. Rebel Heart (January (2016)

6. Wash All Over Me (Avicii Remix) (May 2018 as a tribute to Avicii following his tragic death)

[PaperFaces 5,610]

Of every choice she has ever made that I cannot pretend to understand, the decision to not go with Avicii Heart as the official album version (or at least releasing it as a b-side) takes the crown as the choice of all choices.

She had an anthem on her hands. 

With Warner, this wouldve been the first single from that album.

I do hope we get it properly some day (mastered, and as some commercial release).
