Madonna has made 56 music videos in total, but only 47 videos have made the cut. The nine music videos that did not make the cut are:
- Gambler*
- Oh Father
- Dear Jessie*
- Fever
- Bad Girl
- Love Don't Live Here Anymore
- Drowned World/Substitute For Love
- Nothing Really Matters
- American Life*
Of the nine music videos not in the collection only three have never been released before on a Madonna DVD collection.
- Gambler
- Dear Jessie
- American Life
I would have loved if Warner Bros. would have taken out three music videos that have already been released on DVD and included those three videos.

Bat For Lashes Likes 2 "Sleep Alone"
Bat For Lashes are set to release her third single from her sophomore album, "Two Suns" which was released back in April 2009.
The third official single will be "Sleep Alone" and will be released in the UK on September 7, 2009. The music video premiered back on August 16, but will not be going for radio adds until September 7, 2009.
This track is one of the stand outs from "Two Suns." "Sleep Alone" is a perfect choice for the fall. I hope she releases either "Moon and Moon" or "Two Planets" next!

"I Gotta Feeling," the second single from The E.N.D., sits at #1 on the Top 40 chart. Since its release seven weeks ago, "I Gotta Feeling" has sold over 1.95 million digital downloads.

In 2009, Estelle has started working on her upcoming third studio album with Ne-Yo, Missy Elliott, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, Keri Hilson, T-Pain, Lady Gaga, Mary J. Blige, Trey Songz among others. Production is in the works with The-Dream, will.I.Am.
Mariah Carey's "Obsessed" Promo Only
Mariah Carey released her first official single, "Obsessed" on June 16, 2009. It was in support of her 12th studio album, "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel."
Well since "Obsessed" has not done as well as Island Def Jam had hoped they are now back-peddling. Island has just announced that "Obsessed" is actually just a promo single for the summer to get fans excited for the new album. RIGHT.
Since the track didn't do well, Island and Mariah are now releasing a power ballad (in true Mariah style) that is supposed to echo "Vision of Love" which will now be the official "first" single.
I hate when record labels bull shit. When the chosen "first/lead" single doesn't do well, they always say "oh that track was just a sample/promo for the album, it's not the official single!" Well, if you call is "lead/first" single when it comes out, than it's the "lead/first" single. Just admit it was not the best choice to start a new era.
In other Mariah news, "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel" has been pushed back twice now. It was to be released on August 25, than September 15, now it is to be released on September 29. We'll see if it's actually released on the 29th.
Christina Aguilera Sees "Light & Darkness"
Christina Aguilera is set to release her fourth studio album, "Light and Darkness" in the first quarter of 2010.
Christina has worked with many new artists/producers on this album including, Sia, Ladytron, Goldfrapp, M.I.A. and Santigold to name a few.
"I know I can't let too much out the bag too soon," she said. "I just can't, 'cause I really want you guys to be surprised and to experience firsthand what I'm talking about or what I'm not talking too much about. Too soon in the game, but wrapping everything up now."
Aguilera noted that she's "in the final stages of the record, and I'm just so thrilled." She stepped out of her comfort zone to make a unique album, working with M.I.A., Santigold and Lady Tron, who she says she "respects and admires."
"I think I'm most proud of this work than I've ever been, just because I worked with so many amazing and incredibly talented people," she said. "[Sia and I] did a lot of work on this record together, and she's just a complete gem. She's truly just such a talented force to be reckoned with. And I so enjoyed her company, and I think we really created some super crazy magic together. I got a chance to sort of write with Santigold, M.I.A., Lady Tron — artists that I really love."
The album's sound, and presumably Aguilera's look to go along with it, will reflect the eclectic vibe that she's striving for on the album. "The overall versatility of this record is truly something special for me," she explained. "I experimented with so many different types of textures and sounds with my voice that I've never showcased and that I never really knew that I could do."
She added that "working with so many different people, I really kind of wanted to step into their worlds, them into my world and just get the best of both worlds."
"I really like to step outside of my own box," she said. "The result was just crazy magic. There truly is something for everyone to enjoy on the record. Lots of good stuff in store!"
