Madonna Celebration Cd & Dvd Package Set Video

madonna's run at the top of the charts lasted so long, longer than almost any other star, it's almost impossible to squeeze all the hits onto one collection. And so it is that Celebration, a double-disc, 36-track set that also has a companion single-disc condensation, misses a few songs, hits as gorgeous as "Rain" and as goofily camp as "Hanky Panky," but truth be told, they're not greatly missed on this parade of pop genius that's hampered only slightly by its non-chronological order. Out of order, it does emphasize Madonna's consistency, and the bigger problem with the collection is that it mixes up album mixes, single edits, Q-Sound mixes pulled from The Immaculate Collection, and a couple of stray odd edits and mixes. This is a mess, but not quite enough to dilute what is one of the greatest bodies of work in modern pop -- even in this mixed-up confusion, these singles are a joy to hear. [A deluxe edition was also released.] Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide. The first release from Madonnas upcoming Greatest Hits package leaked today ahead of its August 3rd radio premiere, begging the question; is radio really is as relevant as it was ten years ago, when people used to sit for hours waiting for a radio DJ to play their exclusive, often towards the end of their show after having waited hours listening to their awful playlists? No matter, but I am sure Warner Bros. arent especially pleased about a high quality mp3 spinning through the internet at lightening speed, taking almost all of the steam out of the upcoming single release. Based on my first listening to Celebration (which aptly shares the title with the greatest hits CD/DVD)
