It would be really cool if she did a surprise greatest hits tour or something ;) Isn't this tour a Greatest Hits tour? He's being cheeky. Most of the album, 7", and 12" versions from The First Album are on streaming across multiple releases. But a version that combined everything and some demos would be nice, IMHO.

T.B.F.- the original 6-LP was $149.98 retail, so this one is more- though I suspect you mean copies that showed up on eBay, selling for a lot more than that. :) August- indeed it would. Though, perhaps a reissue of the debut album will be announced soon.

Hard Candy was very underrated. My most played tracks were Candy Shop, Heartbeat, Dance 2Nite, 4 Minutes, Give It 2 Me, and Beat Goes On. Devil Wouldn't Recognize You would have made a great single.

^HC is eligible for a Platinum RIAA album certification, but nothing is ever done about her RIAA certs.

^she really looked so amazing in that pink dress in 2004. That to me was when she started rejuvenating herself. It was jaw dropping.

I forget if I posted this before, but this was Madonna's very first time on TV. It was January 1983 and she performed on a local dance show called Dancin' on Air. It taped out of Philadelphia and sometimes south Jersey Shore. It only aired in Philly and several other cities in the northeast. It went national in 1986 and was retitled Dance Party USA.
Anyway, here is Madonna performing Everybody. I love how budget it is and they are dancing using folding chairs.
Also, later at the end of 1983, she did a performance at Club NY Boston. This is one of the rare instances you can see her perform Physical Attraction. Her voice starts out shaky but gets more confident throughout the song. She also does Lucky Star, Burning Up, and Holiday. She messes up a little during Burning Up and she acknowledges it. The sound cuts out in the final part of the video so not sure if she performed anything else. It is rather sweet to see her doing this club date early in her career. Holiday was just taking off on pop radio and if anyone knew her music, it was probably from the dance clubs at the time. Lucky Star had been a club hit at the time, but did not get a pop release until a year later.
This is her performance on The Tube in the UK. This aired less than two weeks after her US National tv debut on American Bandstand (late January 1984). She does Burning Up and Holiday. She even wears the exact same outfit she did on American Bandstand. She is doing the 7" Remix of Burning Up. I recall reading that she hated this remix but the record company felt it would appeal more to the UK and European markets than the more electric guitar version on her album.
Finally, January 1984 was a busy month for her. She also performed Holiday on the UK show Top of the Pops. I love this performance. I love the fluidity of her dancing. It comes across like this is how she would dance when out in the clubs in the early 80s.

"Rescue Me" is played in the new Yellowjackets episode in a short scene. They could have picked a number of her songs, but I'm glad they choose this one.

It's a start, I suppose. :) Labels, I believe, can choose to apply SPS info to a studio album or compilation. Id think Warner would apply SPS to the studio albums rather than TIC, Celebration, etc.
The TB album was last certified in 1995, LAP in 1997 and LAV, 1998.
Crazy that there has not been a madonna era in 11 years, and she has loads of singles/tracks eligible for first or updated certs, and more albums in need to updates.

Some insider on Mtribe said her certs will be updated in conjunction with the reissues coming up. Some of those are just ridiculous.

I'm not surprised "Sanctuary" is the lowest, but I am a little sad. That song is so lush and beautiful.

"Love Tried to Welcome Me" and "Sanctuary" are probably its most underrated cuts.
