Revenge has a great topline melody but the lyrics are so... just a bunch of cliches grouped together. She did better with this concept on other songs. And of course the production sounds very bare as it was just a demo.

I kind of follow what you're saying, but I think an even better idea would be if they digitally reissued and remastered 'Celebration' with all the correct single versions and made sure they were all merged so they counted towards streams.
So rather than remove it, use it and provide a higher quality product.
I also love It's So Cool! 

I always felt one of her best live vocal moments came from this tour.  The emotion she put into this performance is just so impactful as well.
 

It was an American Life Tour in disguise (the album's themes are front and center through out the show, let's face it) but they used her hits (hence the name of the tour) to sell the show. Very clever if you ask me.




Also, Re-Invention was the best hair she had on tour, it looked great from start to finish, usually the last act her hair is all messed up. 

The first tour I followed, I remember thinking the setlist was a fever dream!

I think it's a perfect show, still. Sleek, almost minimal with a great emotion arc and catharsis. Amazing backdrops, I still think her best tied with Confessions Tour (winning on some days for me) and on top of that the collaboration with Stuart price is *chef kiss*.

Too bad we only got IGTTYAS officially, Jonas' footage of it is great, imagine the whole show!

There was a Qobuz tag change years ago for the celebration album with all the right tags but it hasn't been updated on the other platforms.
What a shame, maybe asking her team for the tag changes they can put the right ones

Madonna finally has over 8 million followers for the first time ever on Spotify.

This is my favorite thread right now. I love reading every word. What great memories! It had to be one of her best tours for costuming as well! Everything and every detail was just off the hook!

WTF have this topic turned into? FFS............

Yes, and both are terribly bad edited versions.
This version of Express haven't even reached 50M and I'm sure if her people request they can merge it with the 7'' Remix, Remix/Edit, or whatever other version.

The least they could to is tag the songs properly. (Video Mix Edit) or (2009 Edit) and of course (Q-Sound Mix) for the Immaculate versions, but they can't even upload the actual Lucky Star and Borderline versions on it, so...

Celebration was cursed from day 1 and stil haunting us after all these years. 
The running order, selection of songs, the poor remastering, the lack of cohesiveness of the chosen versions, botched edits... a nightmare. 

Keep Celebration and Revolver as singles, delete the rest from existence and make a cronological playlist with the single edits/versions instead, I'd say.

Awww thanks for the mention. DITTO!! Unforgettable  @Adonna! So many great many great memories! Thank you!  I think this was my absolute favorite tour (but I seem to say that about all of them on a different day lol)!  But seriously, I literally freaked out for the way she performed "Nobody Knows Me" with the moving side to side cat walk. Indeed a huge highlight. I was DYING!!  The whole show was just fire, but, then she came out with all the Bag Pipers for the last act. I'll never forget how the whole arena VIBRATED! It was such a powerful moment. I loved her Music performance as well in the last segment. So quirky and electrifying. What a perfect and magnificent way to end the show. I could go on and on. Just unforgettable!!
 

2024 marks TWENTY years since The Re-Invention Tour.  I know many fans loved this tour.  I know I did!  I attended three shows with my very best friend @Voguerista  We had a BLAST!!  I recall one show we were approached by the venue for better seats near the stage.  We jumped at the chance. I still remember how I felt when Madonna was performing "Don't Tell Me" and she was staring and pointing right at me.  Of course, she could have been pointing at anyone in my section, but I still felt like I locked eyes with Madonna.  What a moment to have!  So let's share our favorite moments from this tour and feel free to take the poll I provided here, sharing your favorite segment from the tour.  Feel free to share other fun tidbits of your memories from this tour.
