  1. I might be, but that should not affect my capability to judge music Some kind of songs can be appreciated much more after a hit from the bong I mean, you can even make smoke rings and let all yourself be carried away by the music I can tell you, LAP is not even top10 best albums. Btw, the n.1 is Ray of Light, OBVIOUSLY.
  2. No way. It is one of her worst albums. Said that, Like A Prayer is my fav Madonna song of all time so I'd like to join the celebration!
  3. 100% agree with you! It's a great song and an anthem for Human Rights
  4. omg I had to update my top 15 cuz I totally forgot about that forgettable boring song named This Used To Be My Playground
  5. In chronological order: Angel - It peaked at #5 both in the US and UK but it gets overshadowed by the more iconic '80s singles. It's time that she gives a rest to Material Girl or LIB and brings back to life this great bop! Til Death Do us Part - It is one of her best album tracks ever and it would be a nice way to commemorate the LAP era. Again, she can give a rest to Express Yourself and let this bop shine ! Rain - Beautiful song that needs to be remembered. Why It so Hard - As the op says because it is the song that the world needs to hear RN. Secret - A big hit that she hasn't been performed in a while and it can pay justice to the Bedtime Stories era. Nothing Really Matters - Another big hit that would be nice to see performed again. Sky Fits Heaven - One of the best album tracks ever that was performed only during the DWT. It would be nice to see how she reinvents this song on stage. After all, she did a great job reinventing Candy Shop. Skin - Amazing song that deserves to be performed live at least once. To Have and Not to Hold - A beautiful song that would add a magical vibe. Die Another Day - It is one of her greatest bops ever and I'd love to see her dancing to this song again. Sorry - Another colossal bop and a worldwide smash hit. It is also my fav song from COADF and I believe it's time that it makes its return. How High - a rare gem that gets stacked in the head after the first listening and can easily let the crowd dance as if there is no tomorrow. Miles Away - This beautiful song can do justice for the HC era and showcase her always-improving guitar skills. Beautiful Killer - It's a great bop that worked extremely well with the crowd at the Olympia theater. It is perfect to make the crowd jump! Best Night - One of the best RH songs and it deserves justice for being ignored last time. Moreover, it would work well next to Skin because both song require the presence of sitar, which would be really dope to have on stage.
  6. yeah but Madonna song is different cuz she does not show egos or vanity but rather self-irony; and the message is very empowering cuz everyone can say to be Madonna to find strength against the oppression of rules and society.
  7. I wouldn't mind this set-list Revolver Beautiful Killer She's Not Me Forbidden Love Skin Sanctuary To Have and Not to Hold Pray for Spanish Eyes Nothing Fails Devil Pray Sky fits Heaven Paradise (Not For Me) Isaac Why’s it so Hard Impressive Instant Best Night Where Life Begins Secret Garden Devil Wouldn't Recognize You Nobody Knows Me How High Til Death Do us Part Over & Over Easy Ride Rescue Me
  8. I'd like to know where the hate for Superstar comes from. The lyrics are simple but they carry a great message and the Ooh la la hook is so catchy. I also think that the production is great and I wish it had been promoted as single not only in Brazil but worldwide wdym Madonna is arguably the most famous person alive and everyone can relate to Madonna, while only few know who is Mok. I mean,love Lou Reed but him singing "My name is Mok" is not exactly the same as Madonna singing "Bitch, I'm Madonna". Lyrically speaking the two songs deal with different subjects. On top of that, they sound like nothing alike. BIM is a very experimenting song in which Madonna introduced dubstep to pop music
  9. As serious as the effects of climate change. It's such a boring song that I always struggle to hear it till the end. The lyrics are very basic and her vocal performance is so weak. Never understood its appeal ngl Btw are you serious about Skin ?? oh wow, really? It's Madonna sexiest song since Erotica imo. I love the presence of the sitar...it's such a hypnotic and sexy sound and the sample of justify my love fits so well...what's bad about it? The hook is also catchy af Ooh la la even worse than Auto-Tune Baby?
  10. All Madonna songs are great, but which are your less favorite ones? This is my top 15 worst Madonna songs ever released: 1. Auto-Tune Baby 2. Incredible 3. B-Day Song 4. American Pie 5. Champagne Rosé 6. Crazy for You 7. Love Don’t Live Here Anymore 8. Ring My Bell 9. Love Song 10. Me Against the Music 11. I'd rather be your lover 12. Amazing 13. I Rise 14. Soltera 15. Future I'm looking forwards to see your top 15
  11. yup, at least that's what I would call the best night of my life
  12. I can understand the superiority of Oh Father and Keep It Together over Beat Goes On and Dance2night, but it is beyond my capacity to make sense of the rest of your choices I mean, She's Not Me is perfection both lyrically and sonically and deserved a music video and single treatment. On the other hand, Cherish is quite boring lyrically and the only great thing about it is the music video, but lbr it did not deserve to be a single. Meanwhile, both Promise To Try and Miles Away are ballads with deep introspective lyrics. However, Promise To Try is the usual slow ballad that you are probably going to forget after the first listen and it's the kind of song that could had fit better a stronger vocalist like Whitney Houston (same for Oh father btw). On the other hand, damn it! Miles Away is that kind of rare ballad that rocks hard! It is generally downtempo with a sad/reflective mood but at the same time it's great to dance to it and sing it out loud. That is because the electronic beats are dope and the acoustic guitar is so pleasant to hear. On top of that the bridges are so powerful and the chorus is extremely catchy: an epic ballad that is impossible to forget. Finally, Devil Wouldn't Recognize You destroys Act of Contrition lyrically and its vibe it's way more suggestive and mysterious. Moreover, sonically speaking it's more experimenting as it starts softly with a beautiful piano and then becomes fast and catchy.
  13. The musical style of HC is very innovative as Madonna experiments different kinds of sound. The album blends with great mastery a wide variety of music styles and tastes, such as R&B, dance-pop, disco, hip-pop and trip-hop. Despite all its producers the album is very cohesive and Pharrell serves some of his best productions ever, like Give It To Me: a song/candy with a juicy disco center surrounded by a crunchy hip-pop shell. Overall each candy tastes differently (“Say which flavor you like and I’ll have it for you”) but they all wisely exposed next to each other and the album progression towards the end is great. Songs like Give It To Me, Beat Goes On, She's Not Me, Devil Wouldn't Recognize You or Miles Away are as experimenting and pioneering as any other Madonna classic.
  14. Actually I enjoy the discussion if there is respect for different opinions There is no point to discuss with you if you are so sure that LAP is the best album and whoever disagree with you must be trolling. Obviously, it is mainly a matter of music taste since music like art is kinda subjective. Nevertheless, if LAP got such great critical acclaim then why it did not win any Grammys? Personally, I tend to ignore the critical acclaim and make my own mind about the quality of an album. No to mention that the people who were thinking of Madonna as just a dull dance diva were totally biased. Dance music can have substance too. Take for instance Papa Don't Preach or Miles Away: great songs to dance to but at the same time very serious lyrics and strong message. Madonna proved to have artistic consistency and substance already with the LAV and TB albums. The cover alone of the LAV album is one of the most iconic in history. The title itself "Like A Virgin" next to "Madonna" is a punch in the eyes for all the closed mind Christian people. It sums up Madonna in a nutshell: the religion controversy and her fearless and seductive sex appeal. Finally, that hairstyle and "Boy Toy" look impacted the lifestyle of millions of people across the Earth who tried to emulate Madonna in the '80s (the well-known Madonna wannabe phenomenon) . You may like the LAP cover, but it did not impacted the Earth as much as the LAV album. After all, it's just some jeans and everyone wear jeans...it looks like Madonna was afraid to show her brunette hairs. I think you are reaching. You can obviously recognize the touch of Timberlake and Timbaland's dark beats and on both Cry Me a River and Devil Wouldn’t Recognize You, but the latter is a ballad with a totally different chorus and melody. Meanwhile, Miles Away and Midnight Fantasy only got a remotely similar chorus, but again it's a reach to claim plagiarism cuz the production and overall melody is totally different.
  15. Oh please, LAV is the album that made Madonna the Queen of Pop forever. After that she drastically reinvented both musically and visually with True Blue and by the end of the '80s her legacy and impact was already legendary. Both LAV and True Blue outsold LAP btw
