I’m assuming that different suppliers would have sold out at different times? It was actually around for a while. Initially it sold out on her official stores in hours and then they added a new batch that lasted a day or two. And then they were also made available in Canada and Australia for a few days. And finally they were available from Japan for a couple of weeks or so. Also her store added really small batches a few times that sold out in minutes Tex20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real fans are missing out unfortunately. Some stores are more ethical and whenever something limited is available they only allow one or a small number of copies per person. But of course Madonna and Warner don’t care. madgefan and Tex20 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to their own. I am very happy to have a big vinyl box set with lots of different remixes. Is it perfect? No. Compilations never are as the selections are based on personal preference. Even TIC had complaints that the songs were remixes and that Who’s That Girl or Dress You Up were missing. Surprisingly I know a few non Madonna fans that jumped to buy this album, and even the 6LP version. And I also noticed that non fans love the yellow cover art musicman, Madgerules, Aiwa08 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do feel though there are many people even Madonna fans who just don’t really like remixes also. So it’s not for everybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDRA 4,275 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The more I listen to FEL 50, the more out of place Keep It Together is. OK, it reached no 1, but it's a second tier song that means nothing to the general public, just like Causing Commation. Since she took to many liberties with the first 10 tracks, I wouldn't have minded if there was something else more iconic instead of it. Burning Up (Remix Edit)?

steady75 10,349 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Causing A Commotion was an internationally released hit from a well promoted film. It sold loads and was top ten in most countries and deserves its place here hand over fist when companred to Keep It Together which was an amazing closer on Blond Ambition but was a 5th single with no video that was only a minor hit in the few territories it was released in. I'm still glad to have it on this collection. I love the single remix too. Not mad about this slightly frankensteined mix. I like how there are some wild cards on the collection though. Can't argue with Billboard I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markdonna 692 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) Ugh… my amazon silver copy was stolen as it arrived early with little warning. So dealing with that. Yay — LA Apartment living. Listened to the entire album on my iPhone last night on the plane. So much fun stuff. My fav of the previously unreleased stuff is Impressive Instant which remains Instantly Impressive and I last heard it out at the clubs a bazillion years ago. My main quibble is SPOTLIGHT would have been a much better pick than Physical Attraction in my humble opinion. I love Love LOVE SPOTLIGHT and it is the classic Madonna message and it’s long lack of love baffles me. This would have been fun on oh-so-many tours. Oh dear me — when will I ever be able to say FINALLY, ENOUGH SPOTLIGHT?! But other than that — I think M chose a lot of fun remixes. I was a Maxi-single Fanatic way back when so many of these were fun to hear again and I often agreed with her picks as far as which remix.

I don’t get people who complain now about missing out and the secondary market prices. I feel like there were many opportunities to snatch a copy at retail value.
