Are you serious?

[Honey Little 4,477]

I think we need to tell Guy that either she formally release Warning Signs or we will leak it.

Fantastic news we have got Papa Don't Preach. I know that there is a fade edit but I am not mad it's not included as the song is perfect the way it is. I have always used the full version in my singles collection playlist.

I thought it was all the black bustier nasty talk, I blamed Emily the one in charge of black bustiers, not the one in maternity leave

@MaDöner Kebab schöner, just remember there are two titles to your post that can be green now, viele danke in advance!

@norisk_noglory given @Jackie's having their well deserved sleep (that won't be lost as M's has been), I guess someone else could update the thread title, couldn't they?

So that leaves Let Down Your Guard as the only official b-side not on streaming right? I don't count Ring My Bell bc that's an album extra not a single extra.

My idol, much probably it's real. In less than around the clock we'll have some words from PopJusticers if it's legit.

I hope they'll release Let Down Your Guard somehow. It can't be skipped.

But it's only fan guessing or is there any real evidence or hint behind?

Yeah we're at the point where it's just basic uploads at this point with no effort. Oh well. The extras were nice while they lasted. At least the artworks will be there which is lovely. I'd have loved the edit but I imagine they're gonna keep some of these for future greatest hits collections. 

[steady75 9,921]

Not many left to drop now so I think we'll be done in 20 weeks / 5 months. Thank god.

This Used To Be My Playground - Jun 16, 1992
Who's That Girl - Jun 23, 1987
Dress You Up - Jul 24, 1985 
Causing A Commotion - Aug 25, 1987

Holiday - Sep 7, 1983 
True Blue -  Oct 9, 1986 (US)
Die Another Day - Oct 22, 2002 
Like A Virgin - Oct 31, 1984
Open Your Heart - Nov 12, 1986
 

Probably remain unreleased

• Into The Groove
• Live To Tell
• The Look Of Love
• You Must Love Me
• Oh Father

Then they just need the release dates and albums / singles sorted and her team can focus on something else. I think the video thing is dead tbh when the hell was the last one? Power Of Goodbye?

Last video upgrade was "The Power" yes but probably they weren't happy with it (it doesn't look that good honestly) cause it wasn't added to the HD videos playlist and has no HD tags.

Last official one was "Don't Tell Me" in November 2023.

June 2024 now... it's kinda tragic.

They've lost steam anyway. The release radar songs completely changed the game for her. 

• Bedtime Stories junior single mix - 640, 000 plays
• Deeper & Deeper Steps Classic 12" - 522,000
• Up Down Suite - 581,000
• Fever Edit 1  - 462,000

 

In comparison to

• Drowned World BT & Sasha - 34,000
• Angel remix edit -16,000
• Keep It Together - Single remix - 14,000
• Material Girl - Extended dance Remix - 20,000

Wonder where that change of strategy really came from, releasing them as "new" versus with their original release dates.

My bet is it wasn't Spotify (they really don't care that much about the music itself and the more streams the better), but Warner not having to take the effort to sort out the release date later. Or maybe she complained about it or whatever, but I doubt it.

But it's been so bad for her results with the old singles.
