The Sticky and Sweet tour is less than two weeks away and we’ve learned that everyone is working hard on the rehearsals.
A few weeks ago, MadonnaTribe.com exclusively and for the first time reported that “Holiday” and “Dress You Up” are going to be two of the new songs in the 2009 setlist. Today we have heard more related news.

• As previously reported a rock version of “Dress You Up” replaces “Borderline”. The new arrangement keeps elements sampled from the original version but it’s played on a rock track that recalls a lot The Knack‘s classic song “My Sharona“.

• On the other hand, “Holiday” that replaces “Heartbeat“, contains sampled elements of “Everybody” and the new song “Celebrate“. We’ve been told that the song is not such a spectacular reinvention and it’s being rehearsed at the moment with a vocoder effect on Madonna’s voice.
