January 18, 20223 yr I'd have preferred 'Where Life Begins' over 'Words' to have made the Top 3 but not too surprising given how low it was appearing in people's ranks. 'Survival' placing second for 'Bedtime Stories' is definitely a shock, I'd have had 'Love Tried to Welcome Me' in there and, failing that, 'Inside of Me' (which was nearly last place!). I do like it though, I agree with CJK that it sets the tone nicely and sums up the message behind the album really well. Didn't know so many others had the same dislike of Love Song. I think, for me, it's that two of the biggest stars in the world at the time - Madonna and Prince - came together for a collaboration and that was what they came up with. You would think that if they were going to release something together it would have been in consideration for a single, maybe even the lead... but I would imagine the record company would have though, "Nah... album track." Apparently there were several tracks that they collaborated on but were abandoned as there wasn't much connection between Madonna and Prince. Makes sense given how limp 'Love Song' is, certainly says a lot that it was considered the best of the bunch.

January 18, 20223 yr Awww 'Sooner or Later' not making it. :( Granted, the Oscar performance version is far superior but the original is still good. For the first time too, we have songs not receiving a single point :o 9. I'm Going Bananas ~ 0 9. Cry Baby ~ 0 It's what they deserve.
January 18, 20223 yr Author I had Something To Remember first, followed by He's A Man and then Back In Business so again very happy with the results :lol: I'm not too fussed on what has missed out either but I am glad those two horrors have both scored 0 points each :rofl:
January 18, 20223 yr Sooner or later was left of the list !! Cry Baby and Im Going Bananas deserve nothing! To think IGB made the girlie show setlist !!
January 18, 20223 yr Any of the top 5 would have been worthy additions, Sooner or Later is still a brilliant song so shame it didn’t make it, but so thrilled for He’s a Man.
January 19, 20223 yr Author Next up, here are the results for Madonna's 7th studio album Ray of Light. After a distant top 2, it is VERY close for that final 3rd spot and the rest of the tracks performed very consistently... What is the lucky 3rd track to make it? Here are how the songs performed in round 1: 1. Sky Fits Heaven 45 2. Skin 36 3. Swim 21 4. To Have and Not to Hold 17 5. Little Star 13 5. Mer Girl 13 6. Candy Perfume Girl 11 6. Shanti/Ashtangi 11 Well done to the three songs for making it! :cheer: Do you agree with the order they have appeared in, and the songs that have qualified for the next round?
January 19, 20223 yr Author This was a very interesting one to track. The top 2 are miles ahead, but then literally any of the remaining ones could've made it with a slight push! Very close :drama:
January 19, 20223 yr Swim wouldn't have been my choice for 3rd place but so be it... the top 2 are both exceptional :wub:
January 19, 20223 yr Author Yeah agreed. I'd have preferred To Have and Not to Hold (and then even Little Star next) to be 3rd! :cry:
January 20, 20223 yr Again, top 2 for Ray of Light - but my third fave was Candy Perfume Girl, so surprised to see that score so low. Swim was my fourth, so still happy that's made it through.
January 20, 20223 yr Author Next up, here are the results for Madonna's 8th studio album Music. We have one of the most clear winners yet and also.. the closest race for 3rd place too!

Gone ~ 18 7. Nobody's Perfect ~ 14 Well done to the three songs for making it! :cheer: Do you agree with the order they have appeared in, and the songs that have qualified for the next round?
January 20, 20223 yr Author That lead for Impressive Instant!! Also so so so happy I Deserve It has made it (and in 2nd place too! :wub:) Now the third place... I am really gutted Runaway Lover hasn't made it, but I do like Amazing so it's not the end of the world. But I feel like Runaway Lover is a big loss and I thought it was a lot more loved than these results show :o
January 22, 20223 yr Author Next up, here are the results for Madonna's 9th studio album American Life. 6 tracks this time so half are in and half are out!

I'm So Stupid ~ 11 Well done to the three songs for making it! :cheer: Do you agree with the order they have appeared in, and the songs that have qualified for the next round?
January 22, 20223 yr Gutted Paradise didn’t make it, Music isn’t a very good album and that’s the main standout other than Impressive Instant and Don’t Tell Me
January 23, 20223 yr Author Gutted Paradise didn’t make it, Music isn’t a very good album and that’s the main standout other than Impressive Instant and Don’t Tell Me Ummm... what??? Is this new information because I can't believe I've been your ally for this long knowing you have this viewpoint.
January 23, 20223 yr I never thought Music was that good as an album. But I was comparing it to Ray of Light, which was her best. Then came American Life, which I considered really quite poor.
