mostly formulaic pop with controversy thrown in. notable exception of Ray Of Light album which is different league to the rest.

Ray of Light as it sounds like a dance version of Space is Deep...
Blackadder

This was a very difficult one to choose. Plumped for "Like a Prayer" in the end but there were many close seconds.

If anyone ever asks me how to get to Goodge Street, I always use that melody for the Northern Line.

One of the greatest female artists of our time, she really was a super star.
I saw the Blonde Ambition Tour and it really is a spectacular concert.

An early favourite was Angel, which completely bombed as a single, I think.
The only album I ever bought was Ray of Light and Little Star from that album always moves me, as it was about the time my kids were born and brings back some great memories.
In fact, this thread has made me pop the album on for the first time in ages. Love it!

No question for me. Papa don't preach. Absolutely stunning. I love Madonna.

Like a Prayer

Don't know many of her songs but voted Like a Prayer because it brings back memories of good times.
Living in Whitechapel back in the day there was a house party in our block of flats. From about 2am - 5am they did nothing but blast Like a Prayer and all sing a long in a drunken stuper. I couldn't sleep a wink but was too lazy to go downstairs and either join in or tell them to shut it, but now whenever I hear that song it takes me back to those good old carefree days living in Whitechapel with mates and all the crazy house parties we used to have in the area before all the twats moved in and ruined it.

Remember all that well too. Brighton clubs, even the Top Rank Suite, started playing Holiday in 1983 as a US import. My mates and I loved it straight away, as we did Borderline and Lucky Star.
Great memories.

La Isla Bonita is in my top ten all time faves. Terrific song, and Madonna’s own personal favourite.
It was originally rejected by Michael Jackson and she re-wrote it.
I’m a big fan of Madonna’s but having seen her twice in concert, I’ve come away both times disappointed at her set list.

Although my music tastes have changed a bit over the years, I never got Madonna, in fact if I ever hear any of her song on the radio, I change channel over.
Give me Tina Turner any day.

Ray of Gob - a mashup of Ray of Light and Pretty Vacant/God Save The Queen.
No idea how to download it onto here but if you google Ray of Gob, you'll find it. The fella who put it together is an absolute genius!

Had a Madge evening on Spotify before dinner, was rather good.
