Lady Gaga has Just Dance, Poker Face, MAYBE Bad Romance
Katy Perry doesn't really have any. She has big hits but no classics.

Katy has none? FIREWORK is a classic anthem + TEENAGE DREAM is a pop classic. ROAR maybe new but it is shaping as one of pop music's classic.

classics are hits people recognise from all ages. like household names. the song everyone knows.
rihanna has umbrella
britney has hit me baby&maybe topic and oops
taylor has none. but shake it off is a contender.
mariah's christmas song. that's it.
janet has all for you. and what have you done for me lately. that's it.
gaga has poker face & bad romance. maybe btw.
katy has roar and maybe i kissed a girl
bey has single ladies & crazy in love
madonna has classics in her whole discography. like mj. they're one of a kind. none of those pop girls' music comes even close. a lot of artists just have one or 2 songs everyone knows and can sing along to. real worldwide singalongs basically.

It's between Tay and Gags, they both have zero real classics.

Mariah has multiple and even if AIWFCIY was her only classic it is still more iconic than all of Madonna's classics combined

but i think taylor has the least classics. her new album gets played outside of the US and there's some hype, but aside from teen girls i don't think anyone cares or knows about her music kinda like janet and mariah in the 90s. US only

Yeah, Katy has 0 classics, but Firework just blew up into Top 100 on iTunes USA just like every year, California Gurls is the biggest summer song and Teenage Dream is still charting on Billboard 200. 
Britney > Katy = Rihanna > Beyonce > Lady Gaga > Taylor Swift.

All of the bolded ones are forgotten and you know it. Considering Madonna's entire discography is streamed much less than Mariah's, it's clear who has the more memorable singles to today's generation
And your shade is always so stale lmao. "The Christmas song" has sold more than double any single by your fave has + it charts in the ww top 20 every year. It even sold 1m copies in Madonna's biggest market, the UK, while she has yet to do that with a single herself  Oops

how many times do we have to explain this? warner & co deleted all of her music videos a few years ago. 4 minutes had the record views for any music video @ the time. they deleted it when it reached 70 million. (50 million was a record in 2008 or 2009)
a lot of videos are also not viewable outside of the US
you can't even find some of madonna's videos. like beautiful stranger.. try. you can't find it. when a fan uploads it they remove it. ITS NOT THERE. lol. and it sold 530k in the UK
a lot of fans have to upload her videos and the very few videos warner uploads (so its not even on madonnas account or vevo) are low quality
and hung up is the song with the most #1s worldwide. a guinness book record. everyone knows the song.

Considering in 2015 BR is getting roughly the same amount of views per week as Unfaithful, I'd say that's a lie

I agree with one of the first posts that it's not really fair to consider tsylor since her first few albums were country and intended towards a different market. Then again, Love Story and YBWM were off her second, and I could consider them huge and ones that everyone would still remember. So for her, maybe those two and IKYWT? It's too early to say recent songs, though I think SIO will definitely be a classic of hers, and remembered. BS, probably not
People shouldn't confuse #1s with classics.
As for Katy, being unbiased as possible, her classics: IKAG, HNC (probably safe it include), CG, F, and then R and DH certainly will be classics. I want to include TD, and it may be highly remembered, but I'm not sure if it will be a classic. Maybe? I hope!
Gaga has PF, BR, BTW. She had a couple other bits, but none that will be widely remembered. She's more like a cult classic kind of girl

katy perry
every single gaga released from The Fame is a classic (just dance, poker face, lovegame, paparazzi, even starstruck and that wasn't even released) and then you have bad romance, telephone, born this way and the edge of glory
