I can rememeber in high school, we had a copy of her first record and it just sort of sat there unplayed until Borderline hit big

I do give her props for her vocal training for Evita. She really worked her ass of for that.

Yes, she did for Evita. And, I liked the softer, almost sweet, version she portrayed. I think she knew she could never do Lupone's brilliant guttersnipe version, so she made it her own.

Well, he's already given beak in public and appeared with a necktie on his head

BELTING being the key word.

Seriously, you have a fantastic voice!

Not at all! But I know some that wouldn't mind.

Madonna: Alternately good and bad, just like our favorite friend. Cept madonna tries to act. Which our friend had the good sense never to do.

LOL - I can put it out there - that's for sure

But, thank you for the compliment. I think I have a recording of me doing Ray of Light somewhere, though it may have been lost awhile back when my other comp. died. If I find it, I'll post it

I wasn't crazy about her at first. Felt she was overplayed. Especially annoying was that one of our local channels had a weekly music video program (this was before our cable company got MTV), and "Borderline" was the number 1 video for the ENTIRE summer.

I was annoyed because I wanted Cyndi Lauper to win!

By the time "Into The Groove" came out though, I was hooked.

"Only when I'm dancin' can I feel this free... at night I look the door where no one else can see...."

Best movie ever!

Doris: Hey Mae, Mae, your date's here.
Mae: How do I look?
Doris: Where'd you get that dress?
Mae: Borrowed it.
Doris: It don't fit you, Mae, it's too tight.
Mae: I don't plan on wearing it that long.
Doris: Ohh. I don't know why you get dressed at all.

Mae: What if at a key moment in the game my, my uniform bursts open and, uh, oops., my bosoms come flying out? That, that might draw a crowd, right?
Doris: You think there are men in this country who ain't seen your bosoms?

Almost as quotable as Mommie Dearest!

Into the Groove was sooo much fun -- as was Dress You Up, esp. dancing with her while watching the video and doing those up and out forward arm movements

Yeah, it's fun, but that in no way detracts from how insanely bad it is.

I remember one of the reviews I read when it came out said something along the lines of: "On the abysmal title track, Madge attempts to rap like Debbie Harry about nannies and lattes...and fails miserably." I always thought that was a riot.

There's just something about Madonna singing "I live the American dream" that makes me want to throttle her.
