Too funny that we both picked "Nothing Fails" AND placed it at #10.

I originally had "Holiday" on my list, but switched it out for "Deeper And Deeper."

I'm looking at everyone's lists and thinking, "oh, I should have included that song!" and "Dang, I love that one, too!"

Dissy... it's too cool that you love "Dear Jessie" (have you ever seen the video?) and "Keep It Together" (the single remix is the best version of that one).

Jason... "Love Don't Live Here Anymore" rocks. Another one I should have/could have easily included.

This was difficult -- I needed to do a Top 20!

Yes, I love that video! The video for "Bedtime Story" is my favorite, though. That's a great one.

Looking at my list, Erotica must be my favorite Madge album (but I like her nineties stuff better than her eighties stuff). I put it in last night before I went to bed and it's so hot. I burned a copy of it with "Justify My Love" tacked on to it, too. :laugh: And I actually had that video when I was, like, 12 or 13 and my mother went ape**** when she found it.

vermicious knid 08-17-2005 08:13 AM

1) Vogue nothing will ever top this. Not only Madonna's best song, best song ever!
2) Little Star Beautiful - I wish it had been a single
3) Bedtime Story Hypnotic

5) Material Girl

SapphireSister 08-17-2005 01:40 PM

Growing up I was a HUGE obsessed Madonna fan, way before I even knew Stevie existed. It's funny my childhood was all about Madonna and adulthood Stevie. I wonder if a lot of Stevie fans have loved Madonna? It's seems like quite a contrast, like you'd really love one or the other. I always say "Madonna has my heart, but Stevie has my soul". Now of course there is no comparison, I'm a Stevie girl all the way and it's hard to imagine I was ever that into Madonna but trust me, I was. It's so weird picking favorites of someone other than Stevie!! Oh this is sad lol. I'm way too tired and hung over to pick 10 so here's my list of favs in no particul order: (ok I picked 10 and put stars by them)

White Heat
Keep it Together
Promise to Try
Oh Father
*Burning Up
*Physical Attraction
Holiday
*Live to Tell
*Open Your Heart
*Express Yourself
Cherish
*Drowned World/Substitude for Love
*Frozen
Power of Goodbye
Something to Remember
Secret
Erotica
Ray of Light
*Don't Tell Me
What it Feels Like for a Girl
*Where's the Party
Human Nature
*Who's that Girl

Dark Angel 08-17-2005 01:41 PM

Ten? This is going to kill me. :lol:

1. Take A Bow
2. Rain
3. Into The Groove
4. Secret
5. Erotica
6. Bad Girl
7. Express Yourself
8. Like A Prayer
9. Promise To Try
10. Vogue

Honerable mention to: Holiday, Where's The Party, Angel, Borderline, Open Your Heart, Frozen, Little Star, Till Death Do Us Part, Justify My Love, etc.

I'm not sure if I could pick a favorite Madonna video. That one would be very near to the top of the list though.

That's a STEAMY video! And Tony Ward is so damn hot. *growls*

Most of her '90s stuff is definitely her best. With 'Like A Prayer' being the pinnacle of her '80s material.

I always hated the song true blue. Like a Prayer happens to be one of my favorite albums evah! I would say Like a Prayer and Music are her 2 best albums. I had front row center seats to The Reinvention tour in Los Angeles last year (Got them the day before the show on TM) and she postponed the show till the next day because she was sick. Unfortunatly I was leaving on a plane to see my family back east that morning so I missed the show! I'm still not over it. Apparantly she's touring and putting out a new album next year so I'll just have to wait but it wont be another greatest hits tour. Call the wambulance!! :( :(

Serrart 08-17-2005 02:30 PM

SapphireSister 08-17-2005 02:46 PM

I think Live to Tell may just be her best song ever. Such a beautiful song and very underrated IMO. Anyone agree?

:laugh: :laugh: I was loath to come into this thread because there are so few that I like. Now I see I'm not alone. I think it would be hard for me to think of 10 that I like, much less a top ten. But I would say those two you mentioned as well as "Open Your Heart," "Beautiful Stranger," "Take a Bow," "I'll Remember," and lastly, "Ray of Light," which I think is pretty good but not as good as the others.

I love it, even if more than as a single song I see it as an active part of the movie it was in, At Close Range, where both Christopher Walken and Sean Penn gave such great performances. It was the perfect tune for that movie.
