I want S.E.X. to be played at my funeral

Yeah Cherish is pretty meh and its placing between Promise To Try and Dear Jessie is so weird.

Dear Jessie is the only other debatable song on the album. The rest is flawless

I agree completely.

THANK YOU. I've always felt like Cherish was the elegant refinement of True Blue's throwback, girl group, love song aesthetic. That second verse alone takes me into the stratosphere.

See I just use True Blue ha title track tbh.
The only Cherish is use is the mercifully shortened TIC version. Sugary sweet songs like that should be short tbh.

With taste like that, you don't deserve a funeral. The album version > anything else.

If you don't use Open Your Heart, there are going to be BIG problems.
And yes, I only listen to the single edit of Cherish. But it's STILL resplendent.

Also, I saw the Wildest Dreams video from Taylor Swift and thought of you. Not because I pictured you standing in a white dress, staring at the sunset. Watch it and you'll see what I mean.

Cherish gives me an "emergency generic single" tea. They probably slapped it on there just in case LAP's overall sound didn't go over well and they needed a TB sounding smash to sell the album.

Thank God it only peaked at #2! It would have been her worst #1 hit otherwise.

For every good track on True Blue there's a dud.

I really only prefer the choir/acapella intro. The groovier production can come in after the first chorus and the congregation will be lit

[conatus]

The good songs on True Blue (the singles + White Heat) are all amazing. The bad songs are just offensively bad/awful/unlistenable. It really messes up the balance.

I'm assuming that in this alternate universe where Cherish reached #1, Who's That Girl doesn't exist?

Fallen down on the way.
Many hearts, many years have unravelled,
Leading up to today.

6 great songs/3 duds.

Hmm... Okay. I guess that's forgivable. But still the broken and chopped electric guitar intro and lights shutting down sound effect in the album version >>> lives.

Aw thanks bae.

I saw it and I hated it the way I hate everything Taylor Swift does and is. Next question?

One of the best non-singles on Music along with Gone. In fact, those are 2 of the only listenable non-singles along with Paradise.

Fixed.

[conatus]

Not when Where's The Party is an abomination of a song.

[Humoresque]

Anyway....

My other forum has been holding megarates for each Madonna decade, and it's the only reason I'm sticking around there now that I've jumped ship to the mighty ATRL.

They just did a megarate for 00-07 (so that the final one could also have three studio albums and not be totally off-balance), and Get Together was voted the best song of this period.

Thoughts?

No.

Great:
Papa Don't
La Isla
Open Your Heart
White Heat
Live To Tell

Duds:
Where's The Party
True Blue
Jimmy Jimmy
LMTWGR

5/4. Throw in The Color Mix of True Blue and it's equal

Well this is nonsense. The only bad songs on Music are Nobody's Perfect and What It Feels Like For A Bottom.

Tell them not to sign up to ATRL when registration opens again. There's enough bad taste clogging up this forum as it is.

True Blue is her second worst album for me, aside from Stale Candy.
