Billboard Reviews Sorry

#1 Post by DazzerUKUK »

Billboard reviews 'Sorry'


Second single "Sorry" from the platinum No. 1 mix-style "Confessions on a Dancefloor" should keep fans hung up on Madonna's ability to create instant radio and club classics. She may sing, "I've heard it all before," but "Sorry" is neither a reinvention of her past hits nor of anything else on top 40 radio. A vigorous vocal and vivacious, swirling layers of addictive, arresting beats ensure that this is the right-on follow-up to Madonna's record-tying 36th top 10 Billboard Hot 100 single. Also give a listen to the smoothed-out remix with added vocals by Pet Shop Boys. Sounds like a smash no matter how you spin it; no need for apologies here.
And you say you never believed in luck

Billboard almost always focuses exclusively on material set for general commercial release. In light of this review, it sounds as if the PSB remix is indeed slated for some sort of commercial release. Great news! This would seem to contradict some of the other recent reports, which have suggested it would only be a DJ promo.

No, I hadn't seen that -- which is curious since I check the official site almost every day. But that item slipped past me. Thanks!

WOW. This is great news !!! Alas, I've been out of town, visiting my non-computerized, 87 year old Mother since last Wed, so I've been out of the loop for the last 4 days.
Dispite what the Official site says, US fans will have to wait until Feb 28 for this release, as our stores release new swag on Tuesdays.
I like it here ~~ wherever it is ...
