Best From Artist 64 - Madonna

**paul** · October 20th, 2003, 01:33 AM

Yes, I like her :)
Yes, I think she's talented
Yes, she's a late comer to disco with hit's like Lucky Star, Holiday and Like A Virgin.
Yes, Vogue was past the classic disco era but it's my best from artist :D

Bit of a surprise for me to see Madonna here, but i'll go along with it.
Best Madonna dance track for me is still Shep Pettibone's remix of "Get Into The Groove".
A few other remixes worth mentioning are "Causing a Commotion" (silver screen mix) and the 12" dub version of "Open Your Heart".

"Music". Only song of hers I ever bought.

You know; when you think about it Madonna woulda made a helluva Disco Diva - she has everything required: talent,
flamboyance, she's innovative. Just got started 5 years too late.

'Physical Attraction' from her 1st LP has always been a favourite track of mine as it has that cool, anonymous quality that I tend to go for. I feel quite smug 'cos I bought this LP in '83 before most people had heard of her in the UK. I was very surprised when she achieved such huge success, not that she's crap, just that I thought she was just another disco diva who would be ignored by most people. How wrong was I?! :-?
'Vogue', 'La Isla Bonita' & 'Erotica' are rather good tracks too IMO.

I hated Maddona in the 80's...
At the time I was very much into KATE BUSH intelectual approach to music. Maddona meant the opposite.

As the years passed, having listened so many times to her early music, I noticed that it marked some of the best years of my life, to the point that I can say I miss her songs now. Things like
HOLLIDAY
INTO THE GROOVE
LIKE A VIRGIN
DRESS YOU UP
DEEPER AND DEEPER
WAITING...

I think her old stuff is much better than the new "clever" one which is tagged as "artistic". Maddona is trying to be now what KATE BUSH was then.

3.Borderline

5.Open Your Heart
6.Live To Tell
7.Who's That Girl
8.Justify My Love
9.Bad Girl
10.Rain
11.Frozen
12.Beautiful Stranger

Well, Madonna certainly belongs to post disco era although I like what's she's done.

Besides those lovely dancable tunes in her 1st lp, I'd say that a good post disco track is Deeper and deeper. It would make a good solid and even better disco tune with full seventies style orchestration.

"Live to Tell" - Best moment of "In Bed With Madonna".
"True Blue" - I hated "True Blue" but now I love it. A tuneful song. It's good.
"Sooner or Later" - Madonna sang jazzy music!
"Rain" - beautiful but overplayed (I feel it, it's coming...).

I'm a great fan of Madonna and i'm both surprised and pleased to see her in the now famous "Best from artist". Thanx Paul.

My all time Madonna favourite is Vogue, I was 8 years old when I first heard this song. It's the song that brought me into dance music later.

Holiday and Like a prayer are two wonderful songs too.

More recently her too latest albums in cooperation with Mirwais are really great too. Music is a great electro song and her recent "Hollywood" is a gem.

I LOOOVE MADONNA

PS : All members do me the favor to download the "hollywood" remix of Jacques Lu Cont from "Les Rythmes digitales". It's certainly the best electro track of the year
