Dress You Up/Material Girl/Like a Virgin! They're all fun, light, catchy pop songs and this is the first album where you can really see Madonna coming into her own. It's not one of my favourite albums of hers but the highs are really high (all three of these would probably be in my all-time Madonna top 10 wub.gif)

1. Into The Groove
2. Dress You Up
3. Like A Virgin

This was a lot harder than the debut album.

My number 3 could have been Over and Over or 😇.

01 Into The Groove
02 Material Girl
03 Like a Virgin

Or maybe I should have put Dress You Up at 03, ne'ermind. The rest of the album is absolutely terrible.

...actually only Into The Groove is essential on the whole thing. :/

1. Angel
2. Love Don't Live Here Anymore
3. Dress You Up

'Love Don't Live Here Anymore', 'Into the Groove' and 'Dress You Up' (albeit the Celebration edit) for me.

Like a Virgin improves on her debut; it's got a glossier, poppier sound and I agree with Josh that it seems Madonna is starting to come into her own. I love the introduction of her classic, strained, emotive vocal, particularly prominent in 'Love Don't Live Here Anymore'. I know 'Shoo-Bee-Doo' was voted one of her worst here last year, but I think it's really sweet!

Yes same her, Material Girl is just cringeworthily materialistic whereas Like A Virgin was just a shock track because of the risque lyrics and title. I don't know any of the others on the album.

1. Into The Groove
2. Like A Virgin

I voted for Dress You Up & Angel as they're just gorgeous.
And then I didn't know whether to go for Into The Groove or Material Girl. I think Into The Groove has the edge....but it was never on my vinyl LP back in the day, and I only found it on (remastered) CD a couple of months ago and I was surprised to see that it isn't on that either - and so must be punished by giving my 3rd vote to Material Girl.

Over & Over
Love Don't Live Here Anymore
Material Girl

Pretender, Stay, Angel, Dress You Up, Like A Virgin all sort of equal 4th

'Material Girl' is satirical. rolleyes.gif

Yeah, I thought everyone, today at least, was aware 'Material Girl' is satire. 'Like a Virgin' is tongue-n-cheek too.

Posted by: WitchHaus 16th October 2017, 04:05 PM

Dress You Up, Into The Groove and Material Girl for me. Like A Virgin and Love Don't... are cute but apart from that there isn't much I go back to on this album sad.gif

Posted by: WitchHaus 17th October 2017, 08:34 PM

Joe accidently null voted but i've added in his votes: Materical Girl, Dress You Up and Like A Virgin biggrin.gif
