    I don't know about you, but I expected this to just scratch the surface of the Top 20 from Day 1. While this autobiographical ballad (with a slightly pretentious production) is amazingly beautiful,  with hurtful power driving Madonna's pleasantly gritty voice. A true testament to her artistry during her Like a Prayer era, I would argue this is among, if not the, best ballad of her career.

    The underrated single of ROL. It had a really flawless video, and it's production is perfect. However, when I think of it's one performance, I think just that one was enough for this single. No live rendition will be able to match the fluidity of her studio voice or recreate the magic of the album version. Sorry about it. It made it as far as I expected it, and I'm ok to say goodbye to it here.

    This was NOT the one I expected go the farthest from Bedtime Stories. I love me some trance, so I fell in love with this song within the first three seconds. The fact it was written by Bjork made me love it even more. The video was triptastic, which was great, and the lyrics are all ethereal and Bjorky. Her voice is dreamlike here, and she managed to sneak this into an R&B led album flawlessly.

    @@devilpray has just cemented himself as my #1 member (I'm making a lot of judgments based on this rate, btw). Who doesn't love a good S&M romp? This song delivers all that and more. All the sex with the class S.E.X. lacks, for better or worse. I think the Erotica album as a whole is underrated, so I'm SO glad this song, with it's porny bassline and it's steamy vocals made it this far (should've gone farther, but whatever).

    A song I DEFINITELY expected in the Top 10, but I'm glad it's not. It's a great song, don't get me wrong, it's just not my favorite. I really like the innuendo of the whole thing, and it inspired awesome performances, but as a whole the song just isn't as memorable as some of her others.

    A song I DEFINITELY expected in the Top 10, but I'm glad it's not. It's a great song, don't get me wrong, it's just not my favorite. I really like the innuendo of the whole thing, and it inspired awesome performances, but as a whole the song just isn't as memorable as some of her others. Catchy as hell though.

    As much as I hate to say this, I don't think the talk-singing works as well as it does in JML or Erotica. I can understand the fanaticism behind this song, and the fact it didn't get a video is appalling. It's got a great attitude, and Madonna delivers it well. Glad it's not Top 20, tbh

    I don't get why Fighter doesn't like this song . It was the best lead single from her last three albums. I love 90's house throwbacks, and this gives me exactly what I want. There might be a demo or two that's better than the final, but the final is still fantastic. One of the best album openers, this is the electro-Like A Prayer, and I'm living for this love, dahling

    I was totally expecting this getting in the Top 20 like it deserves. I actually like the album version better than the remix. When the horns blare and the bridge kicks in that's when you know that this song is of the best quality. Madonna's 100% in it to win it here.

    I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but 

    @sidney78a obviously doesn't know quality when he hears it. I was very curious when I saw this title that hadn't leaked, and when I checked it out, I fell in love instantly. The production is fantastic, and the lyrics are her best in a decade. The video was slightly cheesy, but it was still nice to see all that effort. I'm definitely upset at it missing Top 20, but I guess @sidney78a just had to go and ruin everything.

    Madonna's best country-pop deliverance. The construction is unique, and still stands the test of time. It's a delightful empowerment anthem that still sounds fantastically fresh. Just shy of Top 20 feels about right, imo.

    I don't really know what this song means 
    HOWEVER I really enjoy it. It was an interesting change of pace from the rest of Bedtime Stories. The guitar is really organic and her voice is smooth. The funk elements added in towards the end were a really nice touch, but I feel like this is right where it belongs.

    Not that this is a bad song, but it's just not as great as it's always hyped up to be. A fun Latin fling never did any harm, but when it's performed on EVERY tour, it starts to. It's a fun song, but it's lost its spark thanks to overperformance. Meh.

    Ok, so I got really excited when I heard rumors of this being on the RHT setlist, but then it wasn't. This song is the shining moment of Bedtime Stories, and her best closer still. The production is sweeping and melodic, and her voice is smooth and sweet. The chorus in particular is the most memorable part of the song, and I'm sad it didn't make Top 20 .

    I don't know about you, but I expected this to just scratch the surface of the Top 20 from Day 1. While this autobiographical ballad (with a slightly pretentious production) is amazingly beautiful,  with hurtful power driving Madonna's pleasantly gritty voice. A true testament to her artistry during her Like a Prayer era, I would argue this is among, if not the, best ballad of her career.

    The underrated single of ROL. It had a really flawless video, and it's production is perfect. However, when I think of it's one performance, I think just that one was enough for this single. No live rendition will be able to match the fluidity of her studio voice or recreate the magic of the album version. Sorry about it. It made it as far as I expected it, and I'm ok to say goodbye to it here.

    This was NOT the one I expected go the farthest from Bedtime Stories. I love me some trance, so I fell in love with this song within the first three seconds. The fact it was written by Bjork made me love it even more. The video was triptastic, which was great, and the lyrics are all ethereal and Bjorky. Her voice is dreamlike here, and she managed to sneak this into an R&B led album flawlessly.

    @@devilpray has just cemented himself as my #1 member (I'm making a lot of judgments based on this rate, btw). Who doesn't love a good S&M romp? This song delivers all that and more. All the sex with the class S.E.X. lacks, for better or worse. I think the Erotica album as a whole is underrated, so I'm SO glad this song, with it's porny bassline and it's steamy vocals made it this far (should've gone farther, but whatever).

    A song I DEFINITELY expected in the Top 10, but I'm glad it's not. It's a great song, don't get me wrong, it's just not my favorite. I really like the innuendo of the whole thing, and it inspired awesome performances, but as a whole the song just isn't as memorable as some of her others. Catchy as hell though.

    I don't know about you, but I expected this to just scratch the surface of the Top 20 from Day 1. While this autobiographical ballad (with a slightly pretentious production) is amazingly beautiful,  with hurtful power driving Madonna's pleasantly gritty voice. A true testament to her artistry during her Like a Prayer era, I would argue this is among, if not the, best ballad of her career.

    The underrated single of ROL. It had a really flawless video, and it's production is perfect. However, when I think of it's one performance, I think just that one was enough for this single. No live rendition will be able to match the fluidity of her studio voice or recreate the magic of the album version. Sorry about it. It made it as far as I expected it, and I'm ok to say goodbye to it here.

    This was NOT the one I expected go the farthest from Bedtime Stories. I love me some trance, so I fell in love with this song within the first three seconds. The fact it was written by Bjork made me love it even more. The video was triptastic, which was great, and the lyrics are all ethereal and Bjorky. Her voice is dreamlike here, and she managed to sneak this into an R&B led album flawlessly.

    As much as I hate to say this, I don't think the talk-singing works as well as it does in JML or Erotica. I can understand the fanaticism behind this song, and the fact it didn't get a video is appalling. It's got a great attitude, and Madonna delivers it well. Glad it's not Top 20, tbh

    I don't get why Fighter doesn't like this song . It was the best lead single from her last three albums. I love 90's house throwbacks, and this gives me exactly what I want. There might be a demo or two that's better than the final, but the final is still fantastic. One of the best album openers, this is the electro-Like A Prayer, and I'm living for this love, dahling

    I'm still confused as to why this got above Sorry, tbh  This song will always be special to me because of that one time I was at Pride and I was the only person who knew the song. It's really great for dancing, and it's lyrics are awesome. I really like it's production, but I wish the video was a bit better.

    I was totally expecting this getting in the Top 20 like it deserves. I actually like the album version better than the remix. When the horns blare and the bridge kicks in that's when you know that this song is of the best quality. Madonna's 100% in it to win it here.

    I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but 

    @sidney78a obviously doesn't know quality when he hears it. I was very curious when I saw this title that hadn't leaked, and when I checked it out, I fell in love instantly. The production is fantastic, and the lyrics are her best in a decade. The video was slightly cheesy, but it was still nice to see all that effort. I'm definitely upset at it missing Top 20, but I guess @sidney78a just had to go and ruin everything.

    Madonna's best country-pop deliverance. The construction is unique, and still stands the test of time. It's a delightful empowerment anthem that still sounds fantastically fresh. Just shy of Top 20 feels about right, imo.

    I don't really know what this song means 
    HOWEVER I really enjoy it. It was an interesting change of pace from the rest of Bedtime Stories. The guitar is really organic and her voice is smooth. The funk elements added in towards the end were a really nice touch, but I feel like this is right where it belongs.

    Overrated, tbh. 
    Not that this is a bad song, but it's just not as great as it's always hyped up to be. A fun Latin fling never did any harm, but when it's performed on EVERY tour, it starts to. It's a fun song, but it's lost its spark thanks to overperformance. Meh. Sad to say, but this is probably where it belongs.

    Ok, so I got really excited when I heard rumors of this being on the RHT setlist, but then it wasn't. This song is the shining moment of Bedtime Stories, and her best closer still. The production is sweeping and melodic, and her voice is smooth and sweet. The chorus in particular is the most memorable part of the song, and I'm sad it didn't make Top 20 . Oh well...

    Maybe Madonna should check out this list when it's finished to see the songs the fans REALLY want to see her doing for her next tour. With such a vast back catalogue she has given some "oldies but goodies" repeated outings (candy shop, human nature, la isla bonita, music, like a virgin and even dare i say it Like A Prayer -my absolute favourite Madonns song) and ignored some (rescue me, bad girl, take a bow, nothing really matters) or sang them once many years ago (you'll see, cherish, what it feels like for a Girl, secret). Note to Madonna - I love you and all but please retire human nature and candy shop from your setlists for 10-15 years. Lol. Thanks.
