Celebration


I've been wanting to review this to give my view point on this.

Celebration by Madonna.

If I had to give it a star grade three and half out of five.

What I like about this song most is her return to her natural beginnings. Most of her early music consists of these high paced beats with her singing, or talking, more slowly than that beat. I love that about her early work. As she progressed she moved away from that and starting doing new things with her abilities. I love Paul Oakenfold's work on this song as well. The bass is pumping and the progression of the electric whirs and zooms is brilliant.

What I dislike about Celebration? It's not new. It's not fresh and intriguing. She's done this before and she is not breaking any rules. "I guess I just don't recognize you with your clothes on."? That's not risque for her. I miss her breaking boundaries and doing things that people don't expect of her. Even with Ray Of Light she broke ground.

This should have been a gift to her fans for the last 30 years of support, but over all it comes off like an album b-side remix.

But I wont deny it... put this song on when I'm at a club and I'll still be dancing my ass off.

LDI.
