I've gone for Hollywood and Material Girl. The latter is pretty iconic I guess but I don't revisit it often at all compared to the others on the list.

I've gone with 'Material Girl' and, probably controversially, 'Borderline'.

Why do people dislike Causing a Commotion so much? I love it!!
The Blond Ambition performance puts it head and shoulders over half the list on its own!! This post has been edited by CJK: 22nd February 2021, 08:25 AM |

Oops. IN MY DEFENSE it was a very close decision between a few songs and 'Borderline' was unfortunately the one I've returned to the least recently, plus if I were to be picky then the vocal pitching is a tad grating.
I'm acting in the spirit of the song that's currently sitting in the lead with SEVEN votes. |

Only messing but I am more shocked by it because I feel like I should have known your thoughts before this, so my bad! The vocal pitching is what makes it so whimsically nostalgic and retro for me; it's a great example of how not being perfect is actually a good thing because the fact it isn't over-produced or refined makes it more honest and raw for me if that makes sense. I mean I don't think the song will be leaving any time soon, so not panicking yet but it's genuinely in my top 3 for this series alongside the Ray of Light era singles! |

It's still like an 8/10 for me, it's beautiful song in terms of melody and lyrics for sure! I'd have picked something else a few months back and would probably a few months down the line.
