Taking Bronze place is the album's fourth and final single 'Jump'. It's lyrically straight forward but deals with an important, self-powering message that is a reoccurring theme in Madonna's more recent music. It encourages you to live for the moment, take risks, don't regret, explore the world, to travel your own path; life has its challenges so you must learn to stand up for yourself, although not to forget you have your family's support and they'll always be there to depend on when others come and go. Production-wise, it is one of my favourites on the album (I'm aware I've said this for most songs!) as the low-registered vocals and pulsing rhythm (reflective of the song's journey lyrics) in the verses build the tension for a huge chorus that is intensely joyous and sums up what was so incredible about 80s pop. It's one of Madonna's most club-ready hits that I defy anyone not to enjoy.

Round 10: Jump (11/20; 55.00%)
Round 09: Forbidden Love (04/08; 50.00%)
Round 08: Get Together (07/17; 41.18%)
Round 07: Isaac (07/15; 46.67%)
Round 06: Let It Will Be (06/15; 40.00%)
Round 05: Future Lovers (06/16; 37.50%)
Round 04: Like It or Not (09/15; 60.00%)
Round 03: How High (04/16; 25.00%, joint with 'Future Lovers', lost deadlock 08/13; 61.54%)
Round 02: I Love New York (04/16; 25.00%)
Round 01: Push (06/12; 50.00%)

"Hung Up" has to win, definitely the correct final 2 left. Such a great album and glad that "Forbidden Love" has done so well here. Although quite surprised that "Issaac" lasted so long though. Gonna be giving this album another spin soon, it's been a while since I sat down and had a really good listen to it.

It's probably the last great album, Madonna's ever done, as "Hard Candy" & "MDNA" weren't quite up to much. But "Rebel Heart" is very decent, apart from the odd misstep.

I went for 'Hung Up' because it just never fails to get me hyped and I've always considered it my absolute favourite from her. 'Sorry' is very close though so I'd welcome a win for that.

I am voting 'Sorry' (so 'Hung Up' to win). I'd place the former 4th in my overall ranking (behind the former, 'Forbidden Love' and 'Jump' in some sort of order) but it's an incredible song and does deserve its place in the top 2!
