Madonna is, like, her second-best '80s album.

Can you guys give your top 3 (or 5) albums + tours?
I'm so curious

Albums:
1. Like A Prayer
2. Ray Of Light
3. American Life
4. Bedtime Stories
5. Rebel Heart

Tours:
1. Confessions (perfect visuals, setlist, looks etc.)
2. Blonde Ambition (iconic.)
3. MDNA (amazing visuals, the MDNA songs did not deserve this tour treatment though)
4. Who's That Girl (her peak as a performer. Flawless vocals and dance moves)
5. Drowned World (flawless song selections and visuals but she looked tragic)

I love all of her 80's albums except LAV

Like A Prayer >>>>>> True Blue >> Madonna >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Like A Virgin

I'm not here for The Girlie Show being snubbed though.

It's v cute, it just suffers from the same fate as the album. I didn't like it at first but it eventually grew on me as well. The somewhat cheap production kinda works for the aesthetic she was going for.

Anything that serves this level of cultural appropriation slayage deserves respect.

Because she looked 73 and didn't move as rigorously and fluidly as her previous tours.



Re-invention remains the piTs though.

I actually love Erotica, but my fave albums are:

1. Confessions on a Dancefloor
2. Ray Of Light
3. American Life

I've always enjoyed Madonna as kid growing up but I never really payed attention
Except for a couple of singles, I don't really know much about her older albums ('80-late '90) so I really need to get into that!

I think you may be thinking of The Sticky Tour tho.

[Kid A]

fav to least:

Music
Erotica
Bedtime Stories/Madonna
Ray of Light
True Blue
Confessions on a Dancefloor
Rebel Heart
Like a Prayer
Like a Virgin
Hard Candy
American Life

I feel like I'm forgetting one.


EDIT: Oh yeah MDNA between HC and AL I guess

[conatus]

Hm... Bedtime Stories > Ray Of Light > American Life > Confessions > Erotica > Music > the rest in any combination > True Blue > Hard Candy.

[Frozen99]

I cannot do these album ranks... my top 5 would be likely RoL, AL, BS, COADF and Erotica and then Music... likely in that order tbh

In terms of tours, Confessions plays the supreme.

Is Madonna still delivering good live vocals on tour? Her vocals in the Confession tour are so good

[Alongoria13]

All this Hard Grammy snubbing.... plus Sticky and Sweet shade, you can all have your pretty little pink Confessions Tour

I wouldn't be too sure. Confession is 10 years ago and her live performances on tv have been pretty wack vocally this era

I take it you haven't seen the MDNA Tour yet then.

"Turn Up Tha Radiauntil tha speakers blAUGHHHH!!!! " will forever be iconic.

[ELECTRAHEARTPOP]

All the tour DVDs from the past decade have been edited DiaryOfG, so look fir fan videos on YouTube.

No one ever went to a Madonna concert for vocals anyway.

I've noticed that tour dvd was heavily auto-tuned

Ok.

[ELECTRAHEARTPOP]

White Heat is her most underrated song of all damn time. No arguments.

Even Beautiful Killer?



And Best Friend is cute but the 1 afternoon garageband production SUCKS.

I'm pissed that the bitch actually had a good track like Beautiful Killer and has the nerve to make me switch discs.

I have to do the same to listen to Beautiful Scars, and I thought Madonna didn't repeat herself

Is Confessions on a Dancefloor M's best album? God it has been slaying me for the past weeks

Originally posted by conatus

It's fourth-best.

Originally posted by Tutankhamun

ha 8th best I think

Originally posted by GarageGlamorous

It's her most accessible and a very good album.

It's kinda overrated tho.

Y'all better not do History (Land Of The Free) and Super Pop wrong during this proposed Essentials rate!

Confessions On A Dance Floor is my stan album, so I'll drag for filth anyone who wants to come for it, it was a perfect era tbh.




Second best is Music, and we're not having another Music dragging so soon. They tried it last week.

Madonna is underappreciated. It's one of her best albums and y'all pay it dust.

Its up there with Music and Erotica.

I mean, almost the entire album has had amazing longevity and gets radio play. Even songs like Physical Attraction and Everybody don't sound that dated compared to songs off True Blue and Like A Prayer.
