And, wow, having Rita Ora in your video. A low point for anyone's career.

70. Give It 2 Me (ft. Pharrell)

I can't lie, I bopped a bit in 2008, and I bop a bit now. The production is awesome, but I'm really not a fan of Madonna's voice or lyrics on this track.


69. True Blue

Not only is this the first twentieth century track to fall out, but I'm jumping all the way back to 1986. True Blue has never clicked with me - it's overly cheesy, and too slight to go any higher for me.


68. Ghosttown

Ghosttown is fine, but it really falls behind when compared to Madonna's more memorable ballads.


67. Dear Jessie

A cute, novel track, but I can't justify placing it any higher.


66. Beautiful Stranger

I listened again today, and I bopped a little. It's typically late-nineties for M: good production, clean vocals... It just hasn't quite clicked with me.

Human Nature better be top 10! An anthem :clap2:

Eddie. 06-02-2019 05:09 AM

Not the Die Another Day snub!

That's one of the Madonna songs I listen to the most...

RileyH 06-02-2019 06:33 AM

Give It 2 Me / True Blue / Beautiful Stranger robbed

Alf 06-02-2019 08:59 AM

You'd better like Hanky Panky.

TomC 06-02-2019 09:18 AM

65. Nothing Fails

There's potential here. It's better than Love Profusion, but doesn't compare to Hollywood.


64/63/62. You Must Love Me / Don't Cry For Me Argentina / Another Suitcase In Another Hall

Madonna's vocals in Evita are sublime. Sadly, I'm not a huge fan of the soundtrack itself, and so I'm quite happy to discard these three in one go.


61. Who's That Girl

I find this track a wee bit annoying. Certainly underwhelming compared to the other WTG singles.

TomC 06-02-2019 09:28 AM

60. Everybody

Ahhh, M's debut single. It's a pleasant little track, but not a lot more. It's my second least favourite on her debut album. I just find the chorus pretty repetitive and draining, and the refrain in the last chorus is really not great in my opinion.


59. La Isla Bonita

I can't deny that this is a thoroughly enjoyable and entirely iconic Madonna track. For some reason I just don't get into it as much as most of her other 80s/90s output.


58. Hanky Panky

It's nice to hear Madonna do something a bit different here. A fun little track.


57. Girl Gone Wild

Well, I bop. This track is SO 2012. It's probably the best imitation of the contemporary music scene Madonna has done in her career recently. It's my favourite post-Celebration single of hers, but obviously that doesn't say a lot.


56. Spotlight

I love the 80s sound here, but it's just not that memorable. It's kind of an inferior Lucky Star.

4 minutes, Like A Prayer and Papa Don’t Preach top 3

Nancy. 06-02-2019 09:48 AM

TomC, interesting rankings, but "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" and "One More Chance" should've gone ages ago, and I would've saved "La Isla Bonita" and "Who's That Girl" for the top 20. They are classic Madonna songs.

I think "Spotlight" sounds more like "Holiday" than "Lucky Star".

TomC 06-02-2019 10:25 AM

55. This Used to be my Playground

A lovely, emotive ballad.


54. The Look of Love

This song very effectively straddles being an heart-wrenching ballad and a BOP.


53. You'll See

Really beautiful. It's very subtle, and it works well.


52. Take A Bow

TAB is obviously very iconic, and a good song in its own right. I just find it a wee bit twee.


51. Crazy For You

That chorus! It is a blend of sexy and emotive. Unfortunately, it's never impressed upon me enough to crack the top fifty.


Wow, a ballad cull!

Who remembers this from 16 years ago?

A tragedy that the cameraman cut to Timberlake just as Madonna was kissing Aguilera.





TomC 06-02-2019 01:42 PM

50. Live To Tell

This song has incredible potential. The only thing that lets it down for me is that I'm not a fan of the 'a man can tell a thousand lies' segment of each chorus.


49. Justin Timberlake - 4 Minutes (ft. Timbaland & Madonna)

The world bopped to this in 2008, and rightly so. It just...it's not a Madonna song. It's so wrong that at least half the lyrics are sung by JT, and it has little semblance of classic Madonna.


48. One More Chance

Absolutely beautiful. So mellow. A tad forgettable perhaps.


47. Fever (single version)

I'm more well-acquainted with the album version, but this re-working of a cover is so...warm and sexy. It complements Erotica so well.


46. Bedtime Story

This is one of M's more bold singles, which really says something. I love what she was trying to do here, and the MV is art. I just feel that the production is a trifle underbaked, meaning I've never entirely connected with it.

aaah i forgot about this

TomC 06-02-2019 01:53 PM

45. Miles Away

This song is so warm and easy to listen to. It really takes me back to my mother having Hard Candy playing in the car. :dance:


44. Causing A Commotion

Such a gorgeous classic 80s sound.


43. Get Together

ANother song with huge potential that I feel isn't quite done justice with the production. It's a bit too slight and muffled I feel, so it only gets half way to full bop capacity.


42. Gambler

I love this. It's so in-keeping with M's self-titled/LAV sound.


41. Oh Father

Ugh, gorgeous. Her voice! :love:

My Top 30 is ICONIC so stay perched

I like Gambler.

Me and my sister used to have a dance routine to that song when I was a little nipper. I haven't always been cool.
