[denise]

The opening of the "DW Tour" with "Drowned World (Substitute For Love), is pure magic!

"Thief Of Hearts" is still one of my fave from "Erotica" !

"I'll Remember" : I so wanted this to hit the top in Usa :evil: !! Great ballad!!!

"Keep It Together" : The album version is ok, but I remember I truly fell in love as I bought the remix: the 12" Remix above all: I litterally consummed that vinyl back at the time!!

[jio]

It's the 12'' remix which is charting here actually

I think it's amazing how similar to her 1985 self looks at the picture at #59 (which was taken in 1998)

[denise]

At seeing the alltime fan favourite so low......that makes your top 100 more interesting anyway

"Candy Perfume Girl" : Madonna should go more into rock stile: I'd love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"You'll See" : Oily buttery lyrics, so predictabe the moves to continue the project started with "Take A Bow" for the video.....all in all it's not among my Madge fave!!!

70.Swim (1998)
67.Pray For Spanish Eyes (1989)
66.The Look Of Love (1987)
Was a lot better than Causing A Commotion.
65.Frozen (Stereo MC's remix) (1998)
^Original i love (bolded), not remix. Though it's good.

63.I'll Remember (1994)
62.Drowned World/Substitute For Love (1998)
61.Keep It Together (12'' remix) (1990)
60 You'll See
Wow! Some heavyweight ballads all knocked out early.

59 Candy Perfume Girl
58 Like A Prayer
Don't like that Live8 version though. And the IC version is inferior, too - the original should never have been changed.

[jio]

I like both remixes more than the originals. Although I loved the album version of "Like A Prayer" when it first came out, I got so sick of it by some point that whenever I was putting that cd on I was skipping it. It would have been faaaaar lower had it not been for this lovely remix she was performing for a number of years (and unfortunately she abandoned in favour of that mess mash-up/destruction of two great songs with Felix's "Don't You Want Me"). And I believe she has never performed the album version, right?

P.S. TIC version is not bad, but it sounds too plastic and dated and I got bored of it before the original lol. In general I like "Act Of Contrition" more than "Like A Prayer"

I remember when I bought the single and for the first time I heared AOC, I was like : what the fuxk is that,not in a negative way but more because it was not Madonna style at all at the time and I remember too all the fans went in panic fearing that the whole album could sounds like that, lol; while the casual listner were like : what's this Shit, I felt like I was the only one who really liked that song!

As for "Like A Prayer", the album version remains for me the best one, way better than all the other version has been done during the years! I was pretty shocked to see they replaced it with that atrocious version in TIC! I'm glad at least that the song hasn't been touched in "CLB"!!!

[NothingFails]

Okay, going to start on this, going to start with #63 since there's so many.

#63. I'll Remember
a nice ballad that was huge but a lot of people forget. The song actually was the first step back to the public's good graces after everything from 92 to early 94.

62.Drowned World/Substitute For Love
Easily my fave off ROL besides Frozen

61.Keep It Together
Forgotten compared to some of the other titans from Like A Prayer, but I always enjoyed it, especially the Blonde Ambition version

60 You'll See
Everyone who says that Madonna sounds worse than Ke$ha and Rebecca Black need to hear this for exhibit A to prove them wrong.

59 Candy Perfume Girl
It's alright but not a fave, above Drowned World?

58 Like A Prayer
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too low. But then it does have the overplayed factor that I can see would make some people sick of it. But to me, its something I can never got bored of, small spoiler but it will be in my top 10 of all time.

[Blondini]

Lucky Star is a lovely early classic. Like A Flower is nice. Inside Of Me is OK.

[Tiger]

57 Like A Star

Nice 80s song
