Speaking for probably a lot of people, your post did come off as if it was something serious.  Like @Prayer, I was baffled by what you were talking about.  I knew it wasn't serious, but I can see how it came off really confusing to many.  I know people use "Emily" to further joke, but I personally wish people wouldn't because the way people post about this imaginary person, it comes off to a lot of people as if this person is real.  People just joining in on the conversations, don't know the backstory of why "Emily" is used and it really starts confusing those who are genuinely here looking for facts and updates on what is being actually released. 

Thank you for actually addressing it and not writing some random messages saying I'm mocking someone without further explanation

"Nothing Really Matters" official confirmed 9-track tracklist:

Midnight everywhere.

[Madant 658]

Glad the mixes are out digitally

Sad it's only a digital replica of the US maxi

At least, the order of the tracks is slightly different

i have the OZ single. Had bought it for the Mixshow Mix and the Vikram Remix before the US maxi came along

Sadly, the Vikram mix is the regular radio remix that clocks in 7:41 though it says 8:37 on the sleeve

I think the 8:37 version is a better edit than the 7:41 version, though nothing trumps the glory of the cybercut, they should have released all three digitally

Bah, it's easy to do things correctly. I think that it doesn't take a lot of effort to put together all the versions

[Fabiolous 4,808]

Are there maybe licensing issues? After all the promo mixes were never released commercially. What if getting the green light for all of them caused some problems so they thought it'd be better to simply release the previously commercially available ones?

I'm so sad by all these releases to streaming, they're so disappointing lately 😭

[subversive 961]

I'm going to enjoy them, but you have one job, Emily

[MPowered 3,311]

I really don't understand why they suddenly backtracked from releasing the promo only mixes.

Also, in retrospect, Finally Enough Love was such a shitty thing to do. The version on the maxi single is now the 2022 Remaster and the rest are the original masters.

No way and mixes that were released officially worldwide are being left off.

They are just being lazy.

If it were promo only mixes only missing, I might think it to be the case, but officially released mixes like the Club 69 Mixshow Mix are being left off while Love Don’t included the promo only Hot Mix Radio Edit.

Just look at the Bedtime Story and Frozen EP’s. Lots of Promo Only mixes included.

They are just messing everything up now. Bummer. Back to carting my external HD’s with me in the car and to gatherings lol

[Jackie 5,746]

I agree -  not sure what’s changed - I’m grateful they are out - but not including the promo stuff is disappointing to me -

New little update - useless but cute:

The "Ray Of Light" album now has an animated cover on Apple Music:

https://music.apple.com/nz/album/ray-of-light/952887

It's better if you see it on the mobile app.

Animated covers are a little marketing tool some labels use on Apple Music, so this comes directly from Warner.

It's crazy that they always want to go for the latest remaster while I think it's more important to have a cohesive (consistent?) sound for all the tracks of a release.

I never liked any of the Nothing Really Matters Mixes apart from Vikram mix which is Brilliant.

They all took the joy out of the song when they needed to be more uplifting or beautiful. Its quite a delicate song and those circuit synths did it no favours. I was hoping for another Sasha & BT mix as I think they'd have done it justice.

love the avant garde remixes!

So happy to see what was originally released mostly world-wide is seeing the light of day on the streaming and digital platforms.  I never heard of the Mix show until today, but I see that was included on the Australian and Japan versions which didn't include half of what the rest of the world got.  Not a big deal to me.  Since listening to it, earlier, it sounds like a variation of the other Club 69 mixes.  The important thing is that her team is updating her catalog with the majority of her mixes.  I'm excited to see what comes next.

I do wonder in the alternate reality what a Victor Calderone remix of NRM would sound like, interesting she skipped over him for this and TPOG

Sometimes they aren't even remasters just trashy masters made to fit little Timmy's crusty iPad 4 audio system
