I also don't have too much of a major issue with the tracklisting even though I can see some parts of it are jarring. It's also my go-to compilation album because it features a lot more of her discogrpahy than her others do. As the title suggests, it's a great explosion of celebrations as it opens and for a good 14 or so tracks, it doesn't let up with that celebration! In fact 'Secret' is probably the only song on the first disc that isn't an overt celebration of some sort - for that reason I can see why they have gone for this order.

I'd say these were all significant enough hits to appear on the album:

Angel
True Blue
Causing a Commotion
Hanky Panky
This Used to Be My Playground
Deeper & Deeper
Rain
I'll Remember
You'll See
Don't Cry For Me Argentina
The Power of Goodbye
American Pie
American Life
Give It 2 Me

If you were to have a third disc with all those, I'd also add these to take it up to 18 tracks:

Oh Father
Rescue Me
Nothing Really Matters
What It Feels Like for a Girl

Then I'd say 'Miles Away' wasn't significant enough to have been on the album, 'Everybody' and 'Burning Up' are there merely for the fact of them being her first two singles and I'd rather 'Revolver' just didn't happen, so I'd take them off and include these fan favourites:

Bedtime Story
Human Nature
Get Together
Jump

I was starting to wonder what was happening with this! I think I'll hold off buy this for a while, £54 is good value for four vinyl but it's a bit too much for me to spend right now.

Same for me! I hope it becomes available on Amazon/HMV and that it’s not too limited.

Now available to pre-order on HMV! Still no sign of Amazon UK going live with it.

I am oddly not fussed about this. The package doesn’t look that special really and the format emphasises the odd ordering of the tracks

#29 in the midweeks! Unsure if this is just from the vinyl release or whether the streams have been allocated to this collection instead of Finally Enough Love.

Oooh!!! (I still need to get hold of the vinyl)

Because this is probably the best selling now, have streams automatically transferred to this again? I think it's time it did because ain't no-one listening to those remixes still :')

Agree - this is definitely the better strategy from here on it. They've done their job manufacturing a decent run for Finally Enough Love but now it's time for a true greatest hits to take over again

Labels can also choose which compilation gets the streams allocated to it which is what has happened with 'Finally Enough Love' as 'The Immaculate Collection' has long since been the best selling (currently #69 on the download chart).

I'd welcome 'Celebration' getting the streams from this point on though; as mentioned, 'Finally Enough Love' has achieved a very respectable chart run and a Gold certification, plus it would mean 'Celebration' would pass one million chart sales in three years or so.

Re-enters the top 100 this week at #79.

Hopefully this does now get the streams ahead of Finally Enough Love as I imagine Celebration is actually what people are steaming anyways rather than the remixes.

I think if the label were to give this the streams it’ll set up a new healthy chart run and rack those weeks up in no time.

'Finally Enough Love' is #90 on the streaming chart so no such luck, I'm afraid!

#11 on the sales chart and #6 on vinyl. I imagine it passed 2k which is pretty good going considering the vinyl is like £55. Would have been Top 40 if it had streams added to it.

cry.gif I wish they’d revert back to Celebration as the album that represents her hits being streamed.
