Sooo I heard her debut today. It's phenomenal.

Fuck. I like Madonna.

[cshadows2887]

I was in denial for a loooong time. First full Madonna album I've ever heard.

[cshadows2887]

Eda can you rank True Blue, Like a Virgin and Like a Prayer? I want to know where to go next.

Though, as I said, I adore Confessions on a Dance Floor too.

There's a lot of her newer singles I know I don't really love, so I think I'll start with her 80's stuff, see if I develop a taste for her music and then try and tackle the later ones.

that said, ray of light is a hugely underrated album and i still listen to it regularly. fantastic production value.

I didn't want to like Madonna. My musical tastes are androgynous enough already.

I think music is genderless, too. That's just not the consensus.

I'm starting to think I'd agree with you.

Thread is getting major love.

Favorite songs (so far):

[cshadows2887]

Wow...so Like a Prayer is freakin' spectacular, huh?

[cshadows2887]

There's a motherfucking Prince duet! How did I wait this long to hear it?

[cshadows2887]

Finally heard True Blue. Not sure there's an artist I've had to eat my words on harder than the Material Girl. What a fuckin' record.
