I was discussing with a friend which is my favorite all around Madonna album that I could absolutely listen to from beginning to end. ....... but I wasn't allowed to say Confessions On A Dance Floor because he knows that's my go to album.
I was going to say MDNA........but then I remembered B-Day Song exists.
Music is criminally underrated amongst her fanbase I think. It might be my favourite album of hers. Every track brings something completely new to the mix (well okay except for Amazing) yet it feels very cohesive and more importantly void of filler, a quality that all her other albums minus her first, Bedtime Stories and Like A Prayer lack in my opinion.
Ray Of Light and Erotica are brilliant aswell but the former struggles with a hit-and-miss second half (Shanti/Ashtangi is hardly worthy of being a B-side while those three ballads at the end are nice but tiring) and the latter has aged a bit shoddily in parts (especially Why's It So Hard/Did You Do It/In This Life) even though I manage to look beyond that while listening.
(sorry for this unnecessary long thing I just love talking about her albums even though no1curr)

I curr
Shanti might be the weakest (for me it's Little Star) but I still wouldn't skip it.
I don't share the same feeling with the ballads
I forgot about DYD since I deleted it but Why's It So Hard ain't skip-able
·A court rules that "no reasonable audience" would find the sampled portions of a 1976 composition significant, "nor would they recognize the appropriation."

Music is one of her most innovative and yeah, it does get overlooked for COADF and ROL often. She helped pioneer folktronica. Avicii's Wake Me Up reminds me so much of what a blend of Music and Don't Tell Me would sound like.
