That was just after the album "Music".

Wow that is one of Pink's best songs ever

Thats because Madonna is not that vapid as Linda assumed she was. And certainly not during those times. And Pink gave it a fun twist since she's so anti popstar or whatever and she was still very young then. Love that song though. It went to the right person.  Linda herself has an off putting energy, so that never would have worked anyways. Where as Pink seemed to worship her.

Wow, would have been interesting to hear M sing this one!

[A. A. Aardvark 5,173]

Meh !
I'm Coming Up.... is a not so subtle 'e' reference ?
Which makes this gals version 'funny' if nothing else......

It was good for Pink at the time but I cant imagine Madonna singing it at all.

I saw George Merrill & Shannon Rubicam [Boy Meets Girl] on TV saying that they sent 'How Will I Know' to Janet Jackson first, "...and she passed on it...".
Lulu sent 'I Don't Wanna Fight' to Sade who handed it to Tina for her movie.
This sorta thing happens all the time.
Shirley Bassey said she turned down 'Don't Cry Out Loud' b4 Melissa Manchester/Elkie Brooks depending what Side of The Atlantic your on.
And Patti Labelle was offered 'Rush, Rush' first but you know who got that !

I agree that I can't see M singing this one. Definitely was a great choice for P!nk early in her career though.

[Madame Madonna 4,109]

I usually like pink's song but that one is one of meh~ pink song for me.

It feels like Madonna's B-day song.

How about ‘La Isla Bonita’ going to and being rejected by Michael Jackson first?

That was only an instrumental though.

I think I’m the only one here that could have seen Madonna record this song.

Well, still...

I see why she rejected it kind of similar to music

It was a totally different 'song' I read.
