I can't believe we're getting rid FINALLY of the bloody "Sorry" BLOND:ISH remixes EP on her Latest Release spot on Spotify and Apple Music.

Since August 16th 2023 there. Torture.

Good for the company trying to give "Popular" a final push.

Love blondish remix.....i am the only one?!

[Brendanlovesu1 12,010]

maybe they couldn't get anyone to remix it?

[cyberrage 405]

Odd that its not been capitalised on (but consistent). Has Madonna even mentioned this track, would have made a great tour interlude or reference considering the multiple Sam Smiths

[Leona Helmsley 9,418]

I hope to have a mega EP full of remixes in the near future..... Would be amazing..... And i'm sure  the streaming would go very high.

Remixes are not free, doing this type of release is. No cost and profit and exposure for the song. Plus they're simply following the pattern The Weeknd used on his last single last December:

Like I said, no cost and all profit.

I know are not free but  are better and people always love them

I'm so glad that Popular finally gets some different versions released. If only they released it last week, it would of made the top 10 in the UK.

Now, let's get some fucking remixes and a video out.

I looked this up, as I’m sick of seeing it too. A new release stays there for six months.

So glad we’re finally getting a ‘Popular’ push. Fingers crossed it will help it reach the top ten in the uk.

I love the Sped Up version of Popular, I'm not keen on the Slowed version, Madonna sounds like a man 😂

[animalinstinct 2,049]

She sounds great on the a Capella version.
I didn’t realise she laughs after the webcam line and you can hear her sing more verses alongside the weeknd after her verse

[Bjonkers 1,575]

Love the acapella. However, I still can't figure out if it's Abel or Madonna who does the opening spoken bit....

I think it's Madonna or is it Abel just pitched up?

Not only no cost but far more likely to get engagement from the gp. If they’re lucky the sped up version could kick off a whole new wave of tiktok engagement. Nowadays remixes are way more niche and really only for fans.

I know some folks on here are pining for remixes but they should prob let that idea go. This is Abel’s single and dance mixes aren’t really his style.

Plus remixes in general seem to be increasingly less common. Whether it be cost or trends or both, plenty of massively successful singles come and go w/no remixes. Or at most one or two.

The days of 4-6 track remix eps being the norm seem to be in the past. These sped/slowed eps are all the rage these days.

It’s a weird trend. I’m pleasantly surprised they didn’t include sped/slowed versions on the Material Girl ep considering how much tiktok engagement it gets.

Now watch them start rolling out sped/slowed compilations as part of the reissue campaign 🙃

[Michael_Py 234]

I genuinely love “Popular” and now the Instrumental and Acapella are repeat thanks to this release. 
 

its so weird she didn’t even added the song as an interlude in the Celebration Tour. 
 

Her Spotify numbers are great thanks to popular.

she's on there as a featured artist so technically it counts as a Madonna release

Was checking The Weeknd last singles and albums and he's not really an artist with remixes, except for versions re-released featuring other added artists (Ariana Grande, Rosalía, etc.) or... Mike Dean remixes:

So our best bet would be a Mike Dean remix of "Popular", which makes total sense really, since he's close to Madonna as well and should care to do a good job.
