Game: + and - of Madonna Songs

[Halex 1,609]

Positive -  it's everything it's meant to be : light, fun, very refreshing.

 

Negative - it's totally underrated

 

Next : This used to be my playground.

[survivalartist 6,480]

This Used To Be My Playground

 

POSITIVE: Introduced "no regrets". Made my grandmother actually like a Madonna song. Theme to fantastic "A League of Their Own" one of her best cinematic offerings.

 

NEGATIVE: The movie version with additional recorded material was never officially released in the US despite the film and song being so popular.

 

Next: IMPRESSIVE INSTANT

[devilpray 2,387]

Impressive Instant

 

Positive: "I don't even know your name"

 

Negative: some parts feel like somethings missing, like the last chorus, it just needed a little extra something (the dwt version kinda adds it) 

 

Next: Push

[LZE 468]

push?

bush?

shoosh?

swoosh?

 

jump?

what?

[LZE 468]

wow there is a song called push on coad, had to search for it

 

positive: dark,

negative:forgetable.

 

 

next: Addicted

[survivalartist 6,480]

ADDICTED (The One That Got Away)Positive: God she sounds good with the guitar at the breakdown. The flirty under your spell tone of her voice is nice and innovative, not sure she does this tone on any other tune. Like she's stalking her prey.

 

Negative: It just doesn't work with the album. And a bit weird that theres an Addicted and an I'm Addicted. The One That Got Away would have been literally F-I-N-E without the seconds of "I'm Addicted" repeated at the end of the chorus

[survivalartist 6,480]

Next:

ADDICTED (The One That Got Away)The flirty under your spell tone of her voice is nice and innovative, not sure she does this tone on any other tune. Like she's stalking her prey.

 

Agree 

[madgefan 10,150]

Be Careful

 

Positive: It has an amazing bridge in which Ricky and Madonna's voices complement each other

Negative: The production sounds unfinished (for an Orbit recording)

 

Next, Get Up (from the Gotham tapes)

[MeantToBeIconic 998]

Jeez, guys. Stop doing older songs I haven't heard yet! It makes it hard for me to play!

[Halex 1,609]

That gives you an opportunity to discover them  

 

Get up 

 

+ : I like the message, and the rythm, actually everything about it !

 

- : well, the fact it never officially saw the light of day

 

Next : 

 

Shoo-Bee-Doo

[MeantToBeIconic 998]

Shoo-Bee-Doo (I actually know this one)

 

Positive: I love the bubblegummy chorus. So much fun to sing along with!

 

Negative: Such a fun title for such a... melancholy song

 

 

 

Next is Die Another Day

[survivalartist 6,480]

Die Another DayPositive: Another melancholy tune with an amazing orchestral. Analyze this.Negative: Hard to find a negative for a Bond theme.Next: Goodbye To Innocence/Updown Suite ⬆ï¸â¬†ï¸â¬‡ï¸â¬‡ï¸â¬‡ï¸

[devilpray 2,387]

Goodbye To Innocence

 

Positive: The sax part

 

Negative: It was never properly released.

 

Next: Forbidden Love (2005)

[Redha DBL 7,349]

Forbidden Love (2005) :

 

Positive: The production & the "feel" are brilliant, like most of Stuart Price's productions it's sophisticated. Amazing song.

 

Negative: The chorus is kinda "non-eventful", it flows with the rest of the song with no real difference Verse/chorus.

 

Next one : Supernatural

[unapologeticheart 872]

Supernatural

 

Postive: brilliant lyrics, and it's different from anything Madonna did. Imo it's better than Love song, but maybe it doesn't fit on LAP

Negative: The pre chorus is kinda weak

 

 

Next song: Mother and Father

[survivalartist 6,480]

Mother And Father

 

Positive: Disco guitars and lyrics about being let down by your parents.

 

Negative: "I cried and cried and cried all day until the neighbors went away" 

 

Next: Ring My Bell

[Redha DBL 7,349]

Ring My Bell

 

Positive: her singing in the verses (when we first met...)

 

Negative: those Christmas bells all along the song. Why on hearth ! and the chorus that instead of being catchier than the verses is way weaker and that is a huge no way in a song.

 

next one:

 

Everybody

[Halex 1,609]

Ring My Bell

 

Positive: her singing in the verses (when we first met...)

 

Negative: those Christmas bells all along the song. Why on hearth ! and the chorus that instead of being catchier than the verses is way weaker and that is a huge no way in a song.

 

next one:

 

Everybody

 

Ring my BELL, duh !  

 

Everybody...

 

+ : everything ! the UK 12" is life ♥ can't believe it's her first actual single, it's so perfect...

 

- : except the fact it hasn't been performed since 2005 (ah, the lucky ones at that MDNA Tour concert...) nothing is wrong with this song...

 

Next : 

 

Angel

[survivalartist 6,480]

Angel

 

+ = 80s SYNTH HEAVEN, the sound that Debbie and Tiffany and all the rest would've sold their souls for....

 

- = The remix is destroyed, absolutely decimated by "Madonna! Madonna! Madonna!" at the top. Velveeta-level cheese.

 

Next: Voices

[MeantToBeIconic 998]

Voices

 

Positive: I love the strings, and the "Who is the master, and who is the slave?"Negative: The bass sounds a bit fuzzy, if that makes sense? It distorts the song on the beats.

 

 

 

Next: Some Girls

[survivalartist 6,480]

Some Girls

 

Positive: Here's our girl back with an attitude kicking 50's ass and writing receipts.

 

Negative: A rock n roll remix was never released.

 

Next: Another Suitcase In Another Hall

[mikenmark 422]

Another suitcase in another hall

+ve: showed M's great vocal range

-ve: wasn't supposed to have been sung by Eva Peron, so I always imagine M going to Alan Parker in bitch mode.

 

Next:

Rather be your lover

[survivalartist 6,480]

Rather Be Your Lover

 

Positive: The 90s! I just want to put on my parachute pants and this tape in my Walkman and go to the mall. 

Negative: As much as I love Me'shell Ndegeocello she should've released the 2Pac version. Would have been legendary.
