    I hate Girl Gone Wild. I have disliked Madonna tracks before this one but never as much as wanting it to be a person so it could be murdered then the corpse catapulted right into the sun so there will never be any trace of its existence anymore.

    Sorry, I don't care about the opinion of a fan who thinks Confessions is Madonna's worst album :-)

    Truly the follow up to Erotica??? She did Bedtime Stories because Erotica (a masterpiece) almost destroyed her musical career in USA. She did a 180º turn to avoid the disaster.

    Not really. Especially on MDNA, most songs were basically ready before Madge got her hands on them. Music, lyrics, production, everything was already in place more or less. All she and the producers did during the actual recording process was changing a word here and there or adding a few layers to the production. On MDNA, all songs except for Superstar, Gang Bang (same lyrics but entirely new production) and I‘m Addicted (where she most likely wrote the lyrics as her co-writers speak little English) were written and produced more or less entirely without her.
    On Hard Candy, we know that at least Heartbeat was more or less ready before she got her hands on it. Several other songs went through all different kinds of stages though as demos have proven so her input was definitely bigger here.

    Well, the only overrated thing about Music, is the Above & Beyond remix of WIFLFAG. Fact :-)

    I guess I'm the only fan who prefers Hard Candy to MDNA/Rebel Heart/Madame X. By far and by large.
    Hard Candy may not be her best, but it's still a good, solid, funny album full of bops, as well as some musical coherence from start to finish... it's not perfect, and the two ballads are way too similar to Timberlake/Furtado's ones, but I really appreciate Pharrell's production, in particular Beat Goes On and She's Not Me.

    Well, the single wasn't a success in the '90s, and on Spotify it's not even on her top 100.
    It's just overrated by the fanbase.

    Mmm... The thing is, Madonna authored, composed and produced all those songs—along with those producers and writers, but she did, so maybe that's actually what she wanted. I, for one, like the urban/rap/hip-hop element of some of Madonna's music.

    Very Well said. I mean it maybe not worst but it's just Not that good. I mean it's not even "not that great level." It is "Not that good" level.
    And i totally agree with you about Unpopular opinion!! I mean I really like human Nature video. But song itself it just meh... to me. I always surprised that Madonna and so many fans choose that song as one of her best.

    I somewhat agree.
    To me Bedtime Stories is good, but definitely not great.
    I guess its perception is helped by its great videos, but the tracklist is hit or miss; I love Secret, Bedtime Story, Sanctuary, Take a Bow, Survival, but the rest is... er... not that great.
    Don't Stop and I'd Rather etc etc are among her worst '90 songs, and I don't get the appeal of Forbidden Love or Love Tried To Welcome Me either: the production is not bad, but there's something that bores me.
    Unpopular opinion: Human Nature could be one of her best video, but the track itself is just fine, nothing else.

    Renato Iodice got a reaction from Voguerista in Madonna Songs You Hated Then Loved!   
    In 1990 I hated I'm Breathless 'cause I was expecting an album entirely produced by Pettibone, but after thirty years... well, I still hate it 
    To me, it's just a rushed album, a compilation of cheesy songs; never get the appeal.
    Back on topic. Pretender, Jimmy Jimmy, How High, Over and Over, One More Chance, I'm So Stupid, Celebration, Intervention, etc etc: I don't think they are all that great, but they are good/funny tracks anyway.
    And I still dislike almost everything from the last ten years.

    If you're able to appreciate bland songs such as Amazing and Runaway Lover (the worst tracks on Music), you should do the same with I Deserve It, WIFLFAG, and Impressive Instant, which are one billion times better
