Untitled

Celebration will be the third greatest hits album from American singer Madonna, and the closing release under her contract with Warner Bros. Records, her record company since 1982.[1] The release will follow her two previous greatest hits albums, The Immaculate Collection (1990) and GHV2 (2001).[2] A compilation DVD, entitled Celebration - The Video Collection, will also be released to accompany the audio version.

Background

On March 18, 2009, Madonna's publicist Liz Rosenberg announced the plans for the release of a greatest hits package by September.[3] She also added that Madonna had plans to go to the studio and record new material for the album.[1] The next day, Madonna's manager, Guy Oseary, asked fans on his Twitter for input regarding the tracklisting of the greatest hits album.[1] It was later confirmed that she wrote three new tracks for the album, with Paul Oakenfold being confirmed as producer for two of the new songs. [4] Attitude magazine reported in an interview with Oakenfold that the tracks he produced with Madonna are called "Broken(I'm Sorry)" and "Celebrate". He stated that the new music is "lyrically classic Madonna with an edgy modern sound."[5] Her official website also confirmed the presence of the track "Revolver", featuring rapper Lil Wayne, when they announced the final tracklisting for the CD and DVD on August 26, 2009.[6]

Spanish MSN website initially reported that the album was going to be out on September 22, 2009.[7] However, on July 22, 2009, Warner Bros. Records officially announced the release date as September 28, 2009 and confirmed the name of the album as Celebration through Madonna's official website.[8] The compilation will be available in a case of two, as well as a single CD.[8] The songs on the album were re-mastered and chosen by Madonna and her fans, and cover the whole expanse of her career.[8] There will also be a DVD released simultaneously. Titled Celebration - The Video Collection, it will include several music videos of Madonna that have never appeared on a DVD. It includes unedited and never before seen footage of "Justify My Love", as well as the completed video of the single "Celebration".[6][8] The cover for Celebration was created by street pop artist Mr. Brainwash who is best known for "throwing modern cultural icons into a blender and turning it up to eleven."[8]

Celebration was made available for pre-order on iTunes on September 1, 2009 to conincide with the music video release of "Celebration". The standard and 2-Disc Deluxe editions are available, as well as an iTunes exclusive Premium Edition which includes each track available on the 2-Disc Deluxe Edition, as well as a new track entitled "It's So Cool", and the DVD collection.[6]

Singles

"Celebration" was confirmed to be the first single from the compilation. A first preview of the song was added on the performance for "Holiday" on her 2009 leg of the Sticky & Sweet Tour. It was to be released to radio stations on August 3, 2009[8] however, the single leaked on to the internet, so the date was changed to July 31, 2009. The digital download was also released on this date due to the leak.[9] Remixes of the song were released to dance clubs on July 24, 2009.[10] On Madonna's official website it was reported that a music video was filmed where "die-hard fans" showed up in Milan, Italy on July 18, 2009 for the filming of segments of fans dancing and "being themselves".[11] A similar shoot took place later in Barcelona.[12] The video was directed by Jonas Åkerlund.[8]

Tracklisting

Madonna's official website Icon confirmed that 2 disc deluxe compilation will have 36 tracks proclaiming it as "The Ultimate Greatest Hits Collection: 34 Songs That Changed the World", plus two new tracks.[13][6]
