From "Veronica Electronica" (Ray of Light) to "Veruca RnB" (Hard Candy, the musical equivalent of crabs) to hanging in the loo with Suzy Guerra at her local equestrian club, the peaks mostly soar and 1983-2000 left absolutely every other pop star in her snail trail, from Gina G to Tracy Shaw. Madonna off the pedestal is problematic - the creamy smooth pop icon goddess now sounds like a bad case of glandular fever at best, and yet when proper care is given the results are still singy wingy deluxe.

:D Actually maybe I will transpose that and Hard Candy given that American Life has approximately THREE good songs (Nothing Fails which actually I LOVE, Easy Ride and American Life)

I just found American Life a bit lacking after Music TBH

I was actually quite excited about MDNA (nice cover, fun name, Queen of Pop, etc.) and forced myself to like it for a bit before I infamously tore the booklet in half, stamped on the CDs and used the case for something else
 
Oh go on then...

I'm ASTOUNDED that only the lovely @jivafox has Confessions... in his top three so far. I know I'm a bit of a production queen but Forbidden Love ALONE is enough to bring on absolute hysteria and the segue into Jump never fails to violently throw me into a GAY COMA!

Oh ABSOLUTELY - the whole album is a MARVEL.

Ranking is difficult though. I know it will make me sound like a LOON SUPREME, but with the exception of MDNA and Hard Candy, I would genuinely say that I LOVE all her albums.
 
SIDEBAR: "Girl Gone Wild" has just come up on the This Is Madonna Spotify playlist and I am losing my shit. It has AGED so WELL :D :manson:

You GOT me in the ZONE
DJ play my FAVOURITE SAWWWWWWNNGGGGGG
(Turn me on)

An anthem for BASIC GAYS* the world over!


(* over the age of 35)
:disco:
 
Oh it's just SO EROTIC! :disco:

In adjacent news I'm now SHAKING AND CRYING to 'Forbidden Love' AS I VERILY TYPE! :disco::disco::disco:
 
Just one KISS
Just one TOUCH
Just one LOOK
Just one LOVE

:disco: to the point of INTERNAL ORGAN EXPLOSION!

I do love it when Suedey slags Madonna stuff off and can’t bear to so apologises for it, but then says how much he loves it...
 
Re-assessing Girl Gone Wild as we speak.

It sounds better than it did at the time, which at the time popped next to Titanium and Starships was FUCKING HIDEOUS.

The tour finished me off. I know a lot of fans rave about the art and stuff but was a slog . And I never thought I’d say that.

Head for the Offer Nissim Club Mix for extra :disco:
 
GGW is ok- it’s not a terrible song, but has awful, cheap production...

It sounded like the type of BASIC SHIT that Cheryl Cole wouldn't have shat out at the time.

And yes it still sounds dated and CROXTASTIC but it is really fun.

There's an instrumental of the video with some outtakes etc. on YouTube which I really REALLY enjoy...
 
LINK PLEASE!
This has the video outtakes but seems to use the slightly remixed MDNA Tour version. There was a nice one of these clips with just the instrumental which highlighted even further how CHEAP and GENERICTASTIC it was and I LOVED IT :disco:

Someone once said to me that they just turned the video round to make it look like she was doing magic tricks on the wall. Some people are just so bitter :(

Also, OLD GAYS who can barely get out of the armchair without aids and adaptations. We all know what THEY'RE like!
 
I'm having such a marvellous drunken time creating sexy routines to Madonna classics (Revolver, etc.) that I thought I should pop in to apologise if she's ever been upset by my unpleasant comments :)

Although it's not MY fault if the wretched wench insists on being so DISMALLY DISAPPOINTING!
 
Also, can I just say that if you're a REAL FAN, you would never, ever refer to her as MADGE :manson:

MANNERS PLEASE! (The horror of the last three albums notwithstanding :tongueout:)
 
01 ray of light - hands down her best
02 confessions on a dance floor - great but has a couple of duds
03 erotica - ditto

04 bedtime stories - shamefully my first non-greatest hits madonna album, sentimental value i guess
05 music - loved it at the time, but i never want to hear the singles again
06 madonna
07 like a prayer
08 true blue
09 like a virgin

featuring a couple of decent tracks

10 american life - it's dated awfully for me
