Nervous for its chances but glad it is being used :wub:

It's getting some great love in the thread!

 

Was second in my rankings :D

I'm impressed at how well 'Ghosttown' is doing. It felt like a particularly tough round but it still holds it own against some huge forum favourites.

 

Not that it should even be in this round because it should have been bigger than it was, although equally thank God it did chart #76-200 based on our other choices lol.

I'm so happy with the love it is getting :wub: So deserved!

We got through! :cheer:

 

ROUND 7: A ballad album track

 

Pretty self explanatory, but just to be clear: no singles! It must be a ballad song included on an album. It's time for us to get emotional with this theme!

Ghosttown!! Proud of how it did <3

 

Next round is interesting - she has so many ballads to choice from!

Some possible choices:

 

Easy Ride

Gone

I Deserve It

Intervention

Looking for Mercy

Promise to Try

To Have and Not to Hold

 

All came Top 100 in the Ultimate Madonna Rate. 'Intervention' was top - would that be the best option?

I LOVE 'Intervention' :wub: Ugh this is gonna be a hard choice with so many options!

I love it too! :wub: Probably my favourite out of that list but they're all highlights!

 

And yes, very happy with how 'Ghosttown' did in the last round!

I’ll be on my own with this one lmao but I F***ed Up

Easy Ride or Gone

I could see 'Gone' doing well too, huge highlight from its album. :wub: Any further thoughts from anyone?

Easy Ride is amazing but idk if everyone will like it.

 

Is Promise To Try able to be sent in?

Promise to try is her greatest ballad it's stunning go for that one!

Promise To Try wasn't a single so it is eligible! That's a BRILLIANT suggestion tbh :wub:

'Promise to Try' is gorgeous but I just fear how her 80s stuff will fare in this competition, barring the obvious big classics.

What about Forbidden Love?

What about Forbidden Love?

I take it you mean the Confessions one? I think it might blur the lines of what's considered a ballad, plus it's a potential choice for a future round.

I was thinking the one from Bedtime Stories...I should have mentioned that in first place.

 

And only Madonna can have that privilege potentially sending two different songs with same title lol :smoke:

I’d definitely vote for that if you sent it!

 

Her best 80s ballad for sure!

 

She’s got a few tbh but I’d avoid the slower moments on MDNA and Rebel Heart tbh :lol:
