Madonna's official calendar sucks ass, but her Celebration DVD set is pretty fantastic—it offers 18 of her videos that have never been released on DVD and 47 videos overall (she's only had about 55 total). The entire tracklisting of the DVD + a confirmed (and slightly modified) tracklisting for the 2CD and UPDATE for the 1CD UPDATE are after the jump.
Don't get your hopes up for that rumored director's cut of "American Life"—despite it being probably her best or at least most interesting video of the 2000s, she's still too chicken to revisit that era...
Yikes, please spell-check! "Paper Don't Preach"??? Also...why chronological if the CDs aren't?
Otherwise, a great offering. Aside from "American Life," I think her most glaring omission is "Oh Father," and "Bad Girl" really was another brilliant, cinematic video. Both are findable elsewhere, though, so we can get over it. The inclusion of "I Want You" is stunning (yay), and it'll be nice to see "True Blue" and "Who's That Girl" on there. "American Pie" shocks me, and "Love Profusion" is so bad I wish she'd have left that off!
There were some shifts from the previous rumored final tracklisting, including the very smart switch of "Revolver" and "Celebration"—both songs now flow perfectly from the discs they end. The other changes are very slight, but sensible—"Live to Tell" now follows "Take a Bow," which solves the previous mood imbalance on disc two, and disc one sees "Everybody" following "Holiday" instead of "Into the Groove," which also feels right.
UPDATE: I'm told this is the 1CD tracklisting (I hate single parens, but for consistency...):
