Madonna Survivor: The 90s (Round 1)

[RaspberrySwirl]

Lenny Kravitz moaning and groaning over a sexy beat is all the melody I need

 

[Vicky the Vole]

I'd go as far as to say it's my least favourite Madonna single ever.

 

[COB]

Quite easy to chop the duller ballards, the Evita stuff and the truly heinous Beautiful Stranger.

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

the truly heinous Beautiful Stranger.

This is hate crime and I will leave Moopy if it continues

 

[COB]

I've just NEVER GOT ON with it, I'm sorry! It's that dadadadada chorus, I really do find it horrible I'm afraid

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

It’s marvellous and I heard it and saw the video on the same day that I met the first guy I ever fell in love with, so it was a sign.


But then he wasn’t interested so it was a false sign but it stayed with me, and last summer twenty something years later he asked me out.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I'd go as far as to say it's my least favourite Madonna single ever.

Even over universally loathed shitty laughing stocks like Bitch I’m Madonna and GAYLUV?

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I've just NEVER GOT ON with it, I'm sorry! It's that dadadadada chorus, I really do find it horrible I'm afraid

I’m not the greatest fan of the original but there’s THIS

 

[Sheena]

It should retire from this game, together with Like a Prayer.

I don’t think it’s an obvious winner like Like A Prayer is

 

[Sheena]

I'd go as far as to say it's my least favourite Madonna single ever.

BAN THIS SICK FILTH

 

[Vicky the Vole]

Even over universally loathed shitty laughing stocks like Bitch I’m Madonna and GAYLUV?

I actually don't mind either of those 2 songs.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

It’s marvellous and I heard it and saw the video on the same day that I met the first guy I ever fell in love with, so it was a sign.


But then he wasn’t interested so it was a false sign but it stayed with me, and last summer twenty something years later he asked me out.

This clearly needs a Part 2. WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?

 

[Sheena]

Justify My Love is one of the greatest sex singles ever. It’s just utter filth from start to finish and the vocal makes it entirely.

It was also entirely unique at the time. Of course, she ripped it off herself afterwards, but its YEARNING ACHE has never faded for me.

WANTING.
NEEDING.
WAITING.

 

[Sheena]

Beautiful Stranger is another that was fairly unique at the time too- and again, she ripped that off with the terrible Amazing.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I've just NEVER GOT ON with it, I'm sorry! It's that dadadadada chorus, I really do find it horrible I'm afraid

I’ve just remembered what the dadada part is. Still better than GAYLUV though. Even being given a DAY TO LIVE is better than GAYLUV

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

This clearly needs a Part 2. WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?

Nothing, he’s divorced now with three kids and thought I’d still be in love with him.

 

[COB]

Beautiful Stranger also notably wasn't even the best single from the Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me soundtrack

 

[Sheena]

Poor is the man whose pleasure depends on the permission of another.

 

[Sheena]

Love me
That’s right
LOVE ME

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

Nothing, he’s divorced now with three kids and thought I’d still be in love with him.

I assume you weren’t? You could have had some nice days out at the zoo with the children

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

Beatiful Stranger was the best on the soundtrack followed by the above mentioned Mr Kravitz




God the summer of 99 will never be topped

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

I assume you weren’t? You could have had some nice days out at the zoo with the children

We had a lovely date, and I was doing it for 19 year old me who was so in love with him, but I still like him and we’ve talked about meeting more.

Sorry for ruining this thread.

 

[Sheena]

God the summer of 99 will never be topped

Whereas you are most weekends…

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

We had a lovely date, and I was doing it for 19 year old me who was so in love with him, but I still like him and we’ve talked about meeting more.

Sorry for ruining this thread.

Oh CARRY ON! I’d forgotten what the thread topic was

 

[Sheena]

This thread has made me pop on a double whammy of Erotica and Bedtime Stories and it’s splendid looking out on the sunshine over the sea so THANKS LOVES.

None of these are sunshine albums though!

Erotica: muggy summer day but mostly night

Bedtime Stories: cloudy autumn evening

 

[Sheena]

Bedtime Stories: cloudy autumn evening

Erotica isn’t sunshine at all, I agree, but Bedtime Stories totally is!

 

[lolly]

I Want You is in my top ten Madonna songs EVER.

I also think the video is one of her very best. It’s also her best acting performance.

I SAID WHAT I SAID.

LOVELY HAIR as well

 

[Funky]

Round 1 and I already hate everyone

 

[Funky]

I’m warmed by the love that the whole Ray Of Light album is receiving so far, but Justify My Love HAS to win this.

I mean the best song on this entire list is I Want You, but seeing as though everyone here is just a bunch of tone deaf savages, I’m not even going there.

 

[Funky]

Oh wait, I went there.

 

[BoysForSeles]

One More Chance is probably my least favourite single of hers ever.

 

[Funky]

Also @COB to stand trial for posting a Mel Beh song during a 90s Madonna Survivor. I cannot even.

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

I’m warmed by the love that the whole Ray Of Light album is receiving so far, but Justify My Love HAS to win this.

BUT THERE’S NO MELODIE!

 

[Vicky the Vole]

BUT THERE’S NO MELODIE!

There isn't. She just speaks the verses, and the chorus barely has a hook. I just find it a chore to get through.

Rescue Me, on the other hand, is one of the best things ever!

 

[The Unholy Ghost]

There isn't. She just speaks the verses, and the chorus barely has a hook. I just find it a chore to get through.

As always, it all depends on what you want from the world

 

[GinAg (39)]

90s Madonna is the best Madonna. I love some of some of her mid decade ballads, Take A Bow, I'll Remember, I Want You and You'll See are all gorgeous.

Bedtime Stories is easily in my Madonna top 5 albums. I loved all the singles and have the Bedtime Story CD fairytale book thing.

The Evita stuff is dull. I'm not a musicals queen, but I am remix queen so Argentina gets through on Miami merit alone.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Also I don't care for Drowned World. The other Ray of Light singles are top end stuff and anyone voting for them are probably sex pests.

 

[Funky]

I’ve just noticed that @POP! Has voted for Nothing Really Matters in the FIRST ROUND and as such I think he needs to step down from this competition and spend the next three weeks sitting a in corner contemplating his existence.

 

[Vicky the Vole]

The votes for Bad Girl and Rescue Me are the most disturbing to me.
