You are probably sick to death of single rates by different artists...so here is another one for you! :D Due to her insanely massive back catalogue, I've decided to split this Madonna Singles Rate into 3 rounds - 80s, 90s and 00s/10s - and a results thread will be revealed for each round. Once this is completed, the Top 3 from each results will be listed in a poll to which you vote for your favourite. Simple enough? Good, so first is the decade which gave us big hair-dos, strange fashion oh and some singer who happened be the biggest female singer of all time.

 

You have until the 18th August to post your rates (three weeks time). It will usually be 2 weeks, but my holiday interrupts that. Results threads will coincide with the next rating round, by the way. Also, do try to post rates for all singles - if you haven't heard one, please do take the time just to YouTube it.

Naturally LAP will win this as it always does but most of her back catalogue is amazing!

Someone's been expecting this! :P Yes, it's the main versions of the songs - I wasn't too keen on many of the versions used on The Immaculate Collection in comparison to the originals, particularly 'Express Yourself', I seem to remember.

 

I'm quite fond of that version of Express Yourself (indeed it has many of her best remixes I think - especially the Shep's 'Spressin Himself Re-Remix 1990 which despite the awful title is glorious). Beyond even the versions the hideous Q-Sound mixing makes it almost impossible to listen to much of the album for me. I stick to the single mix of Rescue Me which is mercifully not Q-Sound.

I feel like a proper Madonna stan and have overrated everything, but she just has such a fabulous discography. :wub: Especially the 80s - the single choices from True Blue were perfect! No surprise it is her best selling studio album here.
