Absolutely horrid song with an ugly video. Ugly hair, ugly eyebrows, ugly backup dancers, ugly car and and an ugly backdrop. Oh, and the lyrics are ugly too almost as cringe-y as Hey You's.
TRUE BLUE, BABY I HATE YOU!

What kind of hate? Hopeless...
Sorry I haven't posted for a few days, the Wi-Fi in my area went out for a little bit. 111 will be up in a sec

110.
She's Not Me - 6.616071
Highest: 10 x1 (ClassicMainstream)
Lowest: 0x1 (Andre)
Actually, contrary to the general consensus made by ATRL, this song is flawless, one of her best of the 00s. Too bad the MDNA performance tainted it.

I'm pressed that this made it further than the flawless Voices. It's a good song but is probably a minute or so too long.

She's Not Me isnt a terrible song, but I'm fine with it being out of the top 100.
EOG Could you do 110-100 today?

108.
History - 6.652000
Highest: 9 x4 (FameHooker, Strangergab, GarageGlamorous, DrownedWorld)
Lowest: 3x1 (Andre)
This one is very interesting. IIRC, it's about world peace? Either way, it was the B-side to "Jump".

Where's The Party - 6.712500
Highest: 10 x2 (Georges, skyler)
Lowest: 0x 1 (Strangergab)
This one is actually pretty good. Shame, only the singles minus TB are left.

 Really? If the demographic of ATRL was 20 years older this would be top 20.

''Where's the Party'', ''History'' and ''Candy Perfume Girl'' deserved more.

''History'' was written in the aftermath of the ''American Life'' era, you know, the time in her career when half of the US boycotted Madonna because of her supposedly anti-nationalist video and song?
It was the first time in her career she really felt like she regretted her actions and she wanted to soften up her image. ''History'' is a great example of that, just take a look at the lyrics:
Quote:
How many tragedies
Will we see before we come together? Uh, huh
It's easy to forget
We have the power to make things better, uh, huh
I have a dream
But dreams are not for free
We all need to change
Or just repeat history
|
Look at the stuff she's referencing. It's the complete opposite to what the previous era represented. ''History'' represents the ''Confessions'' era much better than half of the stuff that actually made the album. It's a shame it was only a B-side, quite some tracks on the album are ultimately inferior to this one.

Hmm, that's really interesting. Even though it's not like I listened to "History" to know the lyrical meaning of it, I had the thought that the only COADF era songs that were possibly inspired by the AL backlash were "Like It Or Not", "Fighting Spirit", and maybe "Super Pop". So the COADF era was lighter because Madonna wanted it to be lighter, unlike Bedtime Stories?
