Posted Thursday at 20:013 days It's 40 years since the release of 'Papa Don't Preach'. Share your thoughts and memories below!
Thursday at 20:282 days It's peak iconic Madonna, both in terms of the song and the video. Also a really brave subject to sing about at that time!
Thursday at 20:512 days I first discovered this on Glee when the character Quinn was, of course, deciding whether to keep her baby Wow 40 years, such bold subject matter for the era indeed and I really enjoy the strings in the production too.
Friday at 22:061 day My favourite Madonna song of all time! From the second the beats start in the opening I am hooked in and ready to sing at the top of my voice "PAPA I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO BE UPSET!"It's really one of her pivotal moments that showed she was more than just a "pop" star, she could sing about important subjects and was going to push the boundaries from here on out.
Friday at 22:141 day It’s a brilliant song and deservedly made #1. Kicked off the True Blue album campaign perfectly <3
Friday at 22:201 day Thought this was the latest entry for King Rollo's 1986 number 1's rate thread for a moment there when I saw it on new comments!Good pop song indeed. Nice summery Spanish and synthpop production mix. She would explore Spanish influences moree in course in 1987.The chorus melody is strong, I found a comment online a while ago that said the chorus melody is very similar to Classix Nouveaux - Is It A Dream from 1982 and it is!

Named after her very first single.Soooo... without meaning to rock the boat, how do we feel about Kelly Osbourne's cover version? 😬
