    I've said it before and I'll say it again: Stop staring blindly at anniversary dates. You're only setting yourselves up for disappointment.
    Lots of landmark albums by other artists were not reissued on any anniversary:
    Howard Jones: Dream Into Action.
    Originally released on 11th of March, 1985. Deluxe box set released on 30th of November, 2018
    George Michael: Faith.
    Originally released on the 2nd of November, 1987. Deluxe box set released on 31st of January, 2011
    Bruce Springsteen: Darkness On The Edge Of Town.
    Originally released on the 2nd of June, 1978. Deluxe box set released on 16th of November, 2010.
    The list goes on and on.  
    The fun little EP:s that Madonna releases, Who's That Girl 35th Anniversary, and the 20th anniversary remix of American Life is not the same as putting a big deluxe edition together. 
    Now IF Inside The Groove was correct when he said that Madonna worked on the reissue project a few months ago, that tells me that it's cooking, but not ready yet. Or maybe it's in pre-production? Who knows?
    Some say that she's had years to put everything together, but it's not like putting together a mixtape. Just look at the Prince boxes. There is ALOT of work behind them, and it took a LONG time to get them done.

    Agree, and also I feel the Like A Virgin video is one of her sexiest visuals. Mary Lambert really knew how to shoot her in general, but that clip in particular is something else. The hazy, soft focus, her sultry, slightly mysterious coquettishness are just otherworldly.

    I remember when I bought this LP.  It was the reissue with Into The Groove, but my favorite song was Over And Over.
    I couldn't stop listening to the album, and I still think that the cover is the most beautiful picture of a woman I've ever seen. 
    The popular Swedish pop magazine OKEJ wrote in an early September issue (#18, 1984) that they had an early promo of the album, and they thought that the best songs was Material Girl, Over And Over, Dress You Up and Stay. 
    They thought that the choice of Like A Virgin as the first single was a so-so move, since they thought that it was the weakest song on the album!
    Dress You Up would, according to OKEJ, have been a much better choice.
    One of the journalists from OKEJ was in New York in early July, 1985, and was offered the exclusive chance as the only Swede to meet and interview Madonna at Live Aid.
    He had to turn it down. The Military Service was waiting for him back in Sweden, and he HAD to do it.

    Anniversaries can be very off these days, you know that. 
    Twisted Sister's album Stay Hungry was released on 10th of May, 1984, and the 40th anniversary is coming on 4th of October, 2024, so... Exact dates are apparantly not important in the record business.
    With the risk of once again upsetting Debbie Downer (It'll never happen, you're dreamers, bla bla bla) I still think the deluxes are coming when Madonna think they're ready for it.
    Inside The Groove said not too long ago that Madonna worked on the deluxes last summer, but Rhino/Warner has to have a say in the matter too, and then there are probably a thousand small details we're not aware of that Madonna and Rhino/Warner picks apart. We all know how important details are to Madonna.
    With that said, I agree with some here. It's too late for an announcement this year. First we have the rumoured Bedtime Stories remix ep, and then we have Christmas. 
    Something might happen in February, when Christmas is over, and we have money again. 
    Unless Record Store Day..? No, shut up @Celebration. You're upsetting yourself now.

    It's in the Silver Screen Mix too. 
    It's taken from the Color Mix of True Blue. I was quite surprised the first time I heard that.
     
    So Causing A Commotion is one of my favorite maxi-singles with Madonna, and I'm so happy that it's finally on-line.
    By the way: Rhino is promoting it with a short clip where they use... the LP version to promote the remixes!

    I often think about donating my collection to a place that preserves historical items like records, videos, and so on, before I pass away. I want to make sure it is preserved for future generations. However, where I live, I’m not sure where to do that—there’s only a small library.

    The dance mixes match both the yellow cd and my German 12". The dub is 7.03.
    The Silver Screen Single Edit is 4.00 on my German 7" pressing, and according to discogs, the same remix is 4.06 on the Holiday Collection cd, which explains why I always thought it sounded a bit slow compared to the 7".
