The top two are almost inseperable. La Isla Bonita was a week out from being No.1 the day I was born (but was No.2).

Madonna's #1s are actually a very good representative of her discography! Everything down to 'La Isla Bonita' is a 10/10 for me. From her #2s, the ones I'd really have liked to make it would be 'Live to Tell' and 'Ray of Light', plus 'Holiday' is such a major classic it probably should have made it as well.

This was quite tricky and I think it’s changed over time too! I listen to the top 7 here quite a lot and even my 8-11 I’d say I listen to a fair bit. I feel quite mean putting Into The Groove that low but it’s more that everything else is so strong (so here for more of her hits getting chart revivals though!).

True Blue the song I’d say feels like an under appreciated gem for me of her 80s tracks. I think a fair few of her non #1s are likely more remembered but I’ve always loved that song and video a more cutesy side to Madonna but one I like!

The top 5 here I think are all major cross generational smashes though. Frozen feels like it’s one of her fan favourites and one what my generation are more aware of too. What strikes me at this list too is just how versatile and how different these songs are. Thinking the Madonna of Into The Groove would produce something like Vogue who’d go onto so something like Frozen!

Agreed, so many top tier songs and it feels wrong to put some of them in the bottom half. It is such a versatile list and a really good representation of her discography and the songs that are remembered today (compared to Kylie where a lot of her #2s represent her better than some of her #1s).

'True Blue' was actually her 14th most streamed song overall in the UK as of 2023, which placed it as her 9th most streamed #1, so it is still fairly popular! I do find it mad that it had two weeks of 100k+ sales back in the 80s, something the likes of 'Papa Don't Preach' and 'Like a Prayer' failed to do!

Like a Prayer is my runaway fave

4 Minutes my least.
