Madonna's Track List for Celebration Greatest Hits CD and DVD - What's Included and What's Missing

By , About.com GuideAugust 27, 2009

Follow me on:

The complete track listing for Madonna's upcoming greatest hits CD and DVD collections titled Celebration have been revealed. The album and DVD are due in stores September 29, 2009. The set includes two new tracks, the first single, also titled "Celebration," and "Revolver," a track recorded with Lil' Wayne. Celebration does include her early singles "Burning Up" and "Everybody" for the first time in a greatest hits set.

What's missing? Three major hits excluded from her earlier Immaculate Collection greatest hits, "Angel," "True Blue," and "Causing a Commotion" are again left out. "True Blue" and "Causing a Commotion" were included later on a UK released Holiday Collection EP. However, "Angel" seems to be always left out in favor of its single partner "Into the Groove." Among the later hits left out are the #1 smash "This Used to Be My Playground," the only US #1 pop hit missing, as well as "Deeper and Deeper," "Don't Cry For Me Argentina," and "You'll See." It is not a big surprise that "American Pie," one of Madonna's weakest recent hits is missing, but, personally, I would have liked to see "American Life" make the cut. However, when you have the embarrassment of riches in hits that Madonna has amassed, even when you include 36 tracks, there will still be great moments left out. The complete track list is included in the preview of Celebration.
