My HMV trip was VERY Madonna cheer.gif As I walked in the album was blasting out in the store. It was also on top of the shelves as you walked in and in the display near the door ohmy.gif Steps were there too and the other new albums so they were getting a good push. It sounded good hearing the album in the store and singing along to it biggrin.gif i am loving the collection!

I am totally in love with the Music era section on the collection - I think that's my favourite part of it all. wub.gif The run of Music - Impressive Instant is brilliant.

I'm wondering if anyone knows what the differences are between Like a Virgin (7" Version) + Material Girl (7" Version) on this album, in comparison to the original album versions? Or are they just the album versions? I can't tell, but maybe it's something obvious that somebody here can point out to me!

I've only heard a few tracks so far but the remastering sounds fantastic!

That's what the leak is showing! Aitch #3 and bound to overtake Madonna with streams throughout the week.

I must say i've never heard Physical Attraction and Keep It Together before...

Were they really number ones over Cherish? The Power of Love?

Physical Attraction was on You Can Dance compilation which went to #1 back when albums could chart on the dance charts so the song represents that album. Everybody also didn’t reach #1 but replaces Causing a Commotion as that was released as part of a Record Store Day exclusive.

Number 2 is an excellent outcome for a remix album.
Madonna could hold a Top 3 placement.

1,017 - Downloads
645 - Streaming

There's no other Madonna album in the Top 200 mids. Makes me wonder if Finally Enough Love is taking streaming units away from Immaculate Collection, or if it's a temporary mistake. Bearing in mind that Immaculate Collection was #92 on Friday.

That’s a healthy streaming number….isn’t the rule that the biggest selling compilation collects the streaming points for all versions each week? Not sure exactly how that works with remixes but many of the big early hits on FEL are similar variations of the versions found on the parent albums.

Yeah I think 'Finally Enough Love' has taken the streams from 'The Immaculate Collection', no way has 'Finally Enough Love' managed as much as 600 streaming units itself. 'The Immaculate Collection' manages 1k-1.1k each week with most of those sales coming from streams, so 600 streaming units for that seems reasonable at this stage.

I did wonder if this might happen. If it is a mistake, it'll probably be fixed by the Wednesday update, but there's been instances before where remix albums have collected up streams from greatest hits or it could be that her label have requested all streams be allocated to 'Finally Enough Love' (as aeroco pointed out, it was the case that the most purchased compilation of the week gets the streams but I think it may have changed to the label being able to request which album).

I'm absolutely thrilled at 11.2k sales so far - I didn't even expect that much for the week! Top 3 should be on lock.

FYI, Madonna sold 854 on Sunday, Aitch sold 947 and Steps sold just 375.

From what I can find, the 7-inch releases of those songs featured the album versions so yes looks like they're the same versions.

Thanks Liam! It's interesting that this remix album has some single/radio versions. A bit of a stretch for them to be considered as remixes. I suppose for Like a Virgin and Material Girl, those album versions aka 7" versions are all that contributed towards achieving the Dance Club Songs #1s though.

The first three songs are album versions which really does not make sense.

They could have used the Holiday remix from You Can Dance.

LAV and MG also have club mixes but not edits. They could have made new
edits but didn't bother.

I guess the purpose of the album was to celebrate Madonna’s 50 dance #1s rather than specifically just be a remix album, plus remixes didn’t really exist in the way they do now back in the 80s. As vibe says, they could have done edited versions of the extended dance versions of Like a Virgin and Material Girl and an edited version of the You Can Dance remix of Holiday.

I’m not that fussed though. I’m quite happy we’ve got the video/single version of Open Your Heart and Vogue.
