Dan Perry's gonna come on this thread and tell us how we're all wrong and drop some science he knows from choir and then he'll put "American Life" (blech) in there somewhere and tell me how three of the songs on my list are basically the same damn song somehow.

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Saturday, 29 March 2003 17:43 (twenty-two years ago)

where is the 'Fools Gold' sample in 'Frozen'????

'Impressive Instant' is better than loads of other Madonna songs

i wish i'd put 'Like A Prayer' in my 10 now tho dagnabbit

― stevem (blueski), Saturday, 29 March 2003 17:57 (twenty-two years ago)

the drumbeat in the "If I could melt your heart..." part of the song are a sample of the tail end of "Fools Gold."

― Evan (Evan), Saturday, 29 March 2003 18:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Wait, "Impressive Instant" IS the one that goes "I'm in a trance." in that high wussy whiny girly voice, right?

― Evan (Evan), Saturday, 29 March 2003 18:09 (twenty-two years ago)

yep, and has the excellent 'i like to sing-y sing-y sing-y like a bird on a wing-y wing-y wingy-' bit

― stevem (blueski), Saturday, 29 March 2003 18:10 (twenty-two years ago)

liberal use of the word excellent there but you catch my drift

― James Blount (James Blount), Sunday, 30 March 2003 01:21 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't have enough of the more recent full-lengths to do a proper top 10 in good faith, but I've got to up piscesboy for being the only person to list "Over and Over"!

Worst Madonna song would be either "Justify My Love" or "Erotica".

― Geir Hongro (GeirHong), Sunday, 30 March 2003 13:13 (twenty-two years ago)

In honor of Geir:

Only one slot necessary and it goes to "Erotica." Dark and lovely. (Honorable mention to "Justify My Love" for being the foreplay.)

one year passes...

'Deeper and Deeper' goes for the epic reach of 'Vogue' and achieves a greater, er, deepness. But it has none of the, er, grace.
