Is the 3CD Set of Finally Enough Love limited? I see it's sold out on her US site.

I don’t believe so - they’ve probably just sold their CD allocation. FEL50 is the main version - only the vinyl was limited to 6000 copies.

What??? Can't be limited!
Probably they sold out what they had to ship now.

Thankfully it's probably selling better than they expected

[MadNuno]

The 3CD edition is now at #02 on Amazon US best sellers (and Vinyl at #37).

Hopefully all these pre-orders will be enough to give Madonna another TOP 10 album in US.

The 3CD edition is back at #01 on Amazon US Best Sellers and vinyl is on #33

No. Weird... But I checked the Rhino Store and they have it there. Amazon US too.

Maybe it's temporary ,cuz it's her bday. People probably got more excited to get it today

[madgikman]

Yes, they talk about this on her facebook

Glad I bought an extra copy. I'm probably going to gift it. I bought an extra copy of the single disc too. Can't wait for Friday!

They did a promotion on her website today, that explains why it's sold out there. But the 3CD version is not limited, the 6LP version was.

I'm curious to see how much the promo 5 track sampler will sell on eBay. Would've been cool to get, but I pre-ordered a while ago.

It was the first song I played today (still Aug 16 for me...)

[Madone1983]

This album will do well because Madonna has ALWAYS primarily been a disco artist

She was fortunate because when she hit in the 80s disco was now called dance music but had she released the same debut album in 1978 instead of 1983 she would have been gone quick as she would have been labeled a new disco act and been part of the big anti disco backlash that happened in 1980

Her live versions are almost always better than studio recordings. Although admittedly her vocals vary in quality a lot more.

Next you’ll be telling me you don’t sing Vogue over the intro to Holiday!

I don't. As her vocals vary in quality live (like you say yourself), I never listen to them. I did watch them a lot in the past (especially the early ones). But I'm not interested in watching live shows on YouTube. So therefor I haven't seen her live shows much the past years.
Back in the day I played the albums over and over and over and over again. So the album versions are most stuck in my mind. And these days I have favorite versions that end up on my playlists, so those are the ones that get stuck in my mind now. None of them are live versions.

I was reading about the Whitney biopic yesterday and at the same time realized it was Madonna's birthday (both of them August babies!) And that made me think about the titans from that era that are gone. Madonna is still here, and I'm so grateful she is still creating and contributing. Happy birthday, Madonna!

The saddest part is knowing they self destructed. MJ, Prince and Whitney by rights should still be with us.

Elvis died on Madonna’s birthday too, and it’s madness to think that he could still be with us in 2022 if he hadn’t gone down the same road (he’d be 87 if he were still around).

Madonna once said that the most controversial thing she’s ever done is to ‘stick around’ and she’s right. She has never allowed her personal life to interfere with her work, she has consistently released music and toured the world, and managed to stay on top into her fifties. She’s never taken a career break, never hidden from the world and even in her sixties, people are still questioning her career choices and passing judgement.

She might have slowed down in recent years, she might take more holidays than she once did, but she’s always cooking up something new… even if something new is really just something old (remixes, re-issues and biopic).

We are lucky to have her, no matter what we think of her. Just look at the retrospective project: she’s personally putting her house in order, finally looking after her legacy - things Prince, Michael and Whitney sadly never got the chance to do.

She continues to know what is required of her, showing she still cares and is committed to being ‘Madonna’. She is an artist, painting her own canvas, creating her own work - and we are all free to look away at any time but no one ever does.

So Madonna, if you’re reading this (I know you visit) drop something new. I’m desperate here and I just kissed your ass pretty well writing this post

[Artoo]

I don't.

Back in the day I used to celebrate her birthday with my sister and cousins. We'd play a lot of Madonna's music, hold a quiz and make invitations to the party.

Awww that's so cute

That's what I admire her for. Her everlasting drive and evolution and perfectionist. She controlled her own path and life and career.
some kind of ignorant teens or haters come out of nowhere and say she is one hit wonder on youtube. Thats the most studpid and absurd thing i ever heard in pop. No education whatsoever.
I do think their favorite artists could stay and keep up with their career as half long as madonnas and get some mental treatment.
What an artist she is!

[autumnwind]

I hope Nikki and Donna come back for her someday
good old days.

She's absolutely right. People hate being confronted with their own mortality and I think they see that with Madonna. Unfortunately, I feel like we see that with a lot of celebs.

I do think Madonna is aging differently though because she continues to challenge and perhaps people thought she would mellow out in her 60s. When the sad day comes, which I believe won't be for decades, her impact will be appreciated. I'm just glad most of us here are smart enough to appreciate it while we have it

Yes, I agree. Madonna’s ‘mistake’ was mellowing in her forties and backtracking in her fifties, into what many would probably consider an unconventional life.

For all intent and purpose, Mrs Ritchie was a refined, somewhat eloquent, sexy but non-sexual and uncontroversial woman. But when she divorced Guy, she became a pariah for rejecting all that.
