You're right, nothing is really added to the song, but I just love the new arrangement with the house interlude included in the extended intro and part of the chorus being moved ahead of the first verse. The song in its original form has enough room to breathe anyway but extending that further in this version works too.

So I'm just minding my own business and listening to 'Confessions' on Spotify and I am SHOCKED to discover that the alarm clock sound has been erased from the beginning of 'Get Together'.

That's the unmixed edit for you! I agree it's strange hearing 'Get Together' without the alarm clock!

I like the edited version for the sake of playlists and listening on shuffle, but there should really be two versions of the album uploaded. Or maybe on the edited version, there could be a way of adjusting those transitions so you still get the full song that you're listening to without the other song fading in?

I'm listening to Ray of Light this evening. I do love the album but I've always found the ordering of the tracks a little out in places, especially as the title track just sounds amazing after Drowned World as an intro. I've found myself listening to it quite a lot in this order now:
01 Drowned World 02 Ray of Light 03 Sky Fits Heaven 04 Candy Perfume Girl 05 Swim 06 Frozen 07 The Power of Good-bye 08 Skin 09 Shanti / Ashtangi 10 Nothing Really Matters 11 To Have and Not to Hold 12 Little Star 13 Mer Girl Not too many changes but I just find myself enjoying it far more like that for some reason. |

I like the way 'Swim' fades out into 'Ray of Light' but 'Drowned World' does the trick just as well. I've had no issue with the ordering of the tracks but I'll check out your altered version and see what I think!
Speaking of 'Ray of Light', I'm loving this extended version of the track: I remember Madonna, or maybe it was Orbit, saying in an interview that the original version of the track was 10 minutes long but that they had to cut it down - I wonder if '10 minutes' was a slight exaggeration and that this was the version they're talking about? They described it as going completely bonkers towards the end so the description fits. |

On the subject of extended mixes, I've been obsessed with an extended mix of 'Hung Up on YouTube. Now, just today, I've discovered that it's an official mix and is on Spotify!
Added to my Madonna playlist! |

Stumbled across this mash-up of 'Ray of Light' with Gaga's 'Stupid Love' and it works really well!
 Both are suitably bonkers and fun, fun, fun. Love the extended outro, are there some new vocals that aren't in the finished version?

I have had 'I'm Breathless' on repeat this past week
 The survivor polls led me to it, and i've decided to properly give it time  Some of the tracks are pure trash but there are a handful of nices ones (and 'Vogue' ofc), so it's not totally a lost cause!

It’s all about side B for me as I have a soft spot for every track in the second half |

The first half has all the real stinkers :/ |

Fresh from the AF Idol thread I listened to the first half of Celebration because I had NO IDEA Holiday was by Madonna
It turns out I'm actually a secret Madonna fan... so secret in fact I didn't even know it. So there's a rough rate of the first disc CD 1: 01) 06 Hung Up - I knew this song but I've never been a big fan, it's okay but I'd rather just listen to ABBA 02) 08 Music - I've heard this in passing before, not the most memorable though tbh but I'm a fan 03) 08 Vogue - I KNEW THIS WAS MADONNA! I actually quite like it as a song, if it's not something I listen to very often. 04) 09 4 Minutes - Great song, I've always liked this as a Justin Timberlake song 05) 10 Holiday - Banger that I ONLY JUST FOUND OUT WAS MADONNA 06) 08 Like A Virgin - Another one of the few songs I knew was from Madonna although ngl I knew it from Pitch Perfect first  07) 06 Into The Groove 08) 09 Everybody - I really like it on first listen 09) 09 Like A Prayer - I knew she had a song called this but never knew it was this song!! 10) 10 Ray Of Light - I love this song, but again did not know this was Madonna... Such a banger I can't believe I just didn't know I feel the same way I felt when I found out Believe was by Cher11) 08 Sorry - This reminds me of the Scooby Doo theme song 12) 08 Express Yourself - Once again had no clue this was a Madonna song 13) 06 Open Your Heart - See the above, except I like this much less 14) 06 Borderline - Never heard this before 15) 05 Secret - Or this, I feel her voice gets lost in the song here a bit it sounds like a demo that got lost 16) 06 Erotica 17) 05 Justify My Love - Similar to Secret imo 18) 07 Celebration |

Welcome Dexton !
Always pleased to welcome a new fan . During lockdown I have taken the time to listen to Kylie whom I have never given the time of day to before. Is it due to your age that you didn’t know these songs were from Madonna ? |

Moved these posts here, hope you don't mind
 DEXTON Is this your first Madonna forum post? WELCOME xo Good to see you discovering new music today. Celebration as a collection is a good place to start because it has some of her more recent hits, but avoids the very recent ones which are extremely divisive, oop~I am most shocked that you didn't really know much of 'Like A Prayer' as a song before this! It's one of (if not the) most impactful pop songs of all time!! There's the super deluxe double disc version of Celebration too btw, just mentioning  Stick around in the forum - we don't bite! |

I'm the same with regards to Kylie tbh, the odd song of hers I've enjoyed but I can't say I know any more about her music than I did Madonnas! I think so primarily yeah, I know a lot of the songs from hearing them out and about but that's about it for the most part. I'm not generally someone who only listens to newer music though in fact most of the time I listen to older stuff (older being mostly 90s - mid 00s ). Although saying that Madonna had plenty of material in that time period so who knows why she slipped through the cracks for me plus I look at her latest releases now and there's collabs with Swae Lee and Maluma of all people so shes obviously at least trying to keep up with the times!

I think it probably is my first post here! Well this is my second now. I've doubled my post count in the forum already in one day the posters chart won't know what hits it I actually quite liked Living For Love when it came out but never thought to listen to anything else from her at the time, whether that'll change now or not I don't know - I do plan on listening to more from Celebration though I had quite the enlightening experience I do know Like A Prayer but aside from hearing it in passing I never thought much of it tbh, and even now listening it is a good song but why is/was it so huge? |
