OH WOW!  THERE IS GOING TO BE SOME CONTROVERSY

FOR THIS COUNTDOWN...

 

But FIRST, let's review those songs that only got one vote or none at all:

 

FIGHTING SPIRIT:  1 VOTE (MINE)

THE FUNNY SONG:  NO VOTES

FUTURE LOVERS:  1 VOTE

HEY YOU:  NO VOTES

HISTORY:  NO VOTES

IT'S SO COOL:  1 VOTE (MINE)

LIKE A VIRGIN/HOLLYWOOD MEDLEY:  1 VOTE

LIQUID LOVE:  NO VOTES

RUNAWAY LOVER:  1 VOTE

SING (W/ANNIE LENNOX):  NO VOTES

X-STATIC PROCESS:  1 VOTE

YOUR  HONESTY:  NO VOTES

 

BUT the rules for the game have changed (in two different ways):  

1.  There will only be ONE trivia question per session (I will choose from the songs that are in the bidding    - - every five numbers - - and whoever gets back to me first with the CORRECT answer gets to move a song or replace a song

2.  YES! even the songs above are for grabs; if you are the one who voted for one of these songs and you love it so much, you may move it.  Of course you may choose from a song that IS in the countdown, but either way you only get to replace one song with another outright, or move one song all the way to the bottom, therefore moving everything else up one.  NOW, to be fair to me (and I am on EASTERN STANDARD TIME), if someone does not respond to me by 4 pm every other day (the days of the trivia) with the CORRECT answer, then I get to move or replace one of my babies.

 

AS I SAID BEFORE, ALL KINDS OF COMMOTION

IS GOING DOWN IN THIS COUNTDOWN,

I CAN JUST FEEL IT!!

 

And, one reason that I say this, is that EVERY OTHER single song is on the countdown.  There are no numbers beyond 30.  If the song got more than one vote, it's there and that's because we have A LOT of ties (one number even has a quadruple tie).  Can you imagine if a player takes that quadruple tie and replaces all 4 songs with one of their "babies"?  Harsh!!  

 

SO...NO MORE WORDS, LET'S GET STARTED!!

 

First Clue:  Two songs were put together, coming up with one danceable track, that was performed with Missy Elliott and used to promote the label GAP.

 

Remember, to send me your answer (the name of the song and the year it came out) by tomorrow 4 pm EST.

Fourth Clue:  Esta es la versión en español de What It Feels Like For A Girl, que apareció en uno de los maxi-singles. Los aficionados españoles no estaban muy entusiasmados al respecto, ya que la traducción al español parece ser bastante pobre.


 


Remember, to send me your answer (the name of the song and the year the album it came off of came out) by tomorrow 4 pm EST.

Fourth Clue Answer:  Lo Que Siente La Mujer


 


Fourth Move:  angelamanda623 with switching the places of "Push" and "Time Stood Still", therefore


 


Original List:


11.  Push* (13.00)


 


lightyears1981 got the answer correct, but took too long in deciding what to do with the game


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"Deliciosa, labio suave y rosa, baby/Piel de miel, dulce y silenciosa"


15.  from 'Drowned World Tour':  Lo Que Siente La Mujer* (16.00)


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"Girls can wear jeans and cut their hair short/Wear shirts and boots 'cause it's okay to be a boy"


14.  from 'Music':  What It Feels Like For A Girl* (14.67)


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"I'm in love with you, you silly thing/Anyone can see"


13.  from 'American Life':  Nothing Fails** (14.25)


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"Selling out/Is not my thing"

Fifth Clue Answer:  Cyberraga


 


Fifth Move:  nada; LikeAMelody got the trivia correct  :Madonna010: , but has not told me what to do,


so I will be leaving the top 10 alone, straight up to the Ultimate Top 10 shortly


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"Just one kiss on my lips/Was all it took to seal the future"


10.  from 'Confessions On A Dance Floor':  Forbidden Love (12.00)


not on my top 30; this song has a great message underlaid beneath, the performance at Confessions was excellence,


just slid barely out of my top 30


 


 


 


 


source.gif


 


"It's an illusion/There's too much confusion"


09.  (tied) from 'Confessions On A Dance Floor':  Get Together** (10.50)


#8 on my top 30; this song could have been easily overlooked because of its simplicity,


but it's a fan favorite because it gives us that treasured moment with our Queen


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"Now I can tell you/About success, about fame"


09.  (tied) from 'Confessions On A Dance Floor':  Let It Will Be (10.50)


not on my top 30; I get why you all love this song, it's good,


it just doesn't make the top 30 for me


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"Ohm sri guru bjor namaha/Hare Ohm"


08.  (tied) from 'Music':  Cyberraga* (10.00)


#11 on my top 30; let's be frank I don't understand most of the words, but I don't need to:  


I understand the beat


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"There are too many questions/There is not one solution"


08.  (tied) from 'American Life':  Love Profusion (10.00)


not on my top 30; the video is cute, but the song, yeah not so much


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"There's only so much you can learn in one place/The more that I wait, the more time that I waste"


07.  from 'Confessions On A Dance Floor':  Jump** (9.25)


#6 on my top 30; this song has a great meaning, and a great meaning,


a lot of you want to diss the video but, for me, the only thing that needs to get lost is the wig


 


 


 


 


giphy.gif


 


"I can't remember/When I was young"


06.  from 'Music':  Paradise (Not For Me)* (8.67)


#13 on my top 30; how can you deny this song?  hell, even my husband-not a Madonna fan-likes it,


and the way that she kicked it at the Drowned World tour, watching that video live was the *shit* for me
