I'm so tempted to take part in this rate, even though my procrastination skills are on a professional level. There are so many (about 230) songs and yet I'm familiar with one album and her biggest hits only. But I can already sense how iconic a dive into her discography will be, and who knows how many gems are just waiting to be discovered, so why waste this precious opportunity. When if not now? I'm doing this.
American Life was the first pop album I bought that made me think and listen to the lyrics on a deeper level when I was younger. I only got to join in on the last rate last time so I'm excited to come in here. I went through the first album today for prelim scores but I will indeed have to do my homework because I'm not as well-versed in the Living Word as I should be.
Already made a playlist of my 10s to seperate the cute girls from the drop dead gorgeous. Deeper and Deeper... whew.
This is going to be difficult. I'll have to consider what criteria I'm using in my scores otherwise the list is going to look like binary code nn 1010101010
I've been a fan for almost 40 years (gulp) and I don't think I have ever had to ponder what an 11/10 Madonna song would be. So many worthy candidates. The challenge.
I'm going to have to do this rate! Immaculate Collection was the first CD I remember as a kid and have been an on and off fan since. Can't wait to discover some new album tracks!
This is a COMMITMENT but I'm ready for it, I need to finish the Kylie rate, then the Mariah rate and I was gonna do the 80s women rate, then this! Quarantine is gonna be busy! Also, I've no idea what my 11 is gonna be, though Into The Groove is UP there!
Alexa, what is a Sophie's Choice? "Choosing an 11 in the Madonna discography rate." Which do I choose? HELP!
If anyone torpedoes Spanish Eyes or Till Death Do Us Part or I'm So Stupid or Dark Ballet I will find you.
Can we all agree that this is not only one of her finest songs of the last decade, but her entire career? This needs to do well.
