I'm glad I voted for Open Your Heart, I thought it would've been underrepresented compared to something like Papa Don't Preach, it's my favourite True Blue single at the moment, glad it's here.
Secret is the first single from Bedtime Stories. The stripped back R&B tune is one of Madonna's best forgotten hits in my opinion. Luckily, Madonna's stans didn't forget this song and it almost made the top 15. Many speculate the song reference transgendered issues.
SECRET YEEEEES! A forgotten gem.
Probably my favourite single by her. Thanks to all for supporting it too Gave it my highest rating but didn't expect it to end up so high on the list.
Drowned World is the first song on Ray of Light, and a song dedicated to Madonna's child, Lourdes. It's has a slow, but effective build up and is possibly one of my favorite Madonna ballads ever. Good job Ray of Light!
Phew. Madonna stans love this one so much I thought it was going to end up at the Top 5. I'm glad ROL will not dominate the Top 10 that much this time.
I actually think this one should've been higher... but Live to Tell is above it, it seems. See Clump?
Another classic Madonna ballad leaves us. I was hoping this would be top 10, and its my 2nd favorite single from True Blue, and the first ballad where critics took Madonna seriously. Great stuf.
The third ballad out in a row. This is definitely one of my favorite Madonna ballads. It's seemingly personal, yet the lyrics are most likely about bukakke. Probably the most produced, and least "gritty" songs on Erotica. It shines like a heavenly beacon in the sky.
