The Thurston CarteCelebration Tour is not just a commemoration of Madonna’s 40 years of pop superstardom, but a reminder that no matter how many follow in her path, she remains the queen.

Her 79-show tour – postponed from a summer run after she battled a serious bacterial infection – finds Madonna performing more than two dozen hits for more than two hours. Many songs, including “Justify My Love,” “Everybody” and “Live To Tell,” haven’t been played regularly in decades, but she’s dusted them off for this seven-month run.

Madonna, 65, launched the North American leg of the tour with a three-night stand at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center starting Dec. 13. She and her 24 onstage performers will hit cities including Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Las Vegas, Atlanta, Phoenix and Houston through an April 26 finale in Mexico City.

Here is a rundown of the songs you can expect to hear on The Celebration Tour.
