Madonna - CelebrationThe cover depicts her as a 21st century Marilyn Monroe. Madonna’s legend is still evolving, but this 2-CD set—with 36 hits spanning three decades—makes a strong case for her iconic status. From early classics like “Like a Virgin” and “Material Girl” to such recent dancefloor favorites as “Music” and “4 Minutes,” the collection proves Madonna’s knack for catchy pop and includes two new numbers: the Europop title track and “Revolver,” a thumping duet with raspy rapper Lil Wayne that features a sexy twist.
