I'm not sure if I could pick a favorite Madonna video. That one would be very near to the top of the list though.

That's a STEAMY video! And Tony Ward is so damn hot. *growls*

Most of her '90s stuff is definitely her best. With 'Like A Prayer' being the pinnacle of her '80s material.

I always hated the song true blue. Like a Prayer happens to be one of my favorite albums evah! I would say Like a Prayer and Music are her 2 best albums. I had front row center seats to The Reinvention tour in Los Angeles last year (Got them the day before the show on TM) and she postponed the show till the next day because she was sick. Unfortunatly I was leaving on a plane to see my family back east that morning so I missed the show! I'm still not over it. Apparantly she's touring and putting out a new album next year so I'll just have to wait but it wont be another greatest hits tour. Call the wambulance!!

I think Live to Tell may just be her best song ever. Such a beautiful song and very underrated IMO. Anyone agree?

I was loath to come into this thread because there are so few that I like. Now I see I'm not alone. I think it would be hard for me to think of 10 that I like, much less a top ten. But I would say those two you mentioned as well as "Open Your Heart," "Beautiful Stranger," "Take a Bow," "I'll Remember," and lastly, "Ray of Light," which I think is pretty good but not as good as the others.

I love it, even if more than as a single song I see it as an active part of the movie it was in, At Close Range, where both Christopher Walken and Sean Penn gave such great performances. It was the perfect tune for that movie.

I could listen to that song all day and not get bored. I really love Madonna's ballads. Probably a lot more than the fast 'disposable' pop songs she's more famous for.

I noticed Little Star on a couple of the lists. I've NEVER been able to get into that song. I'd say it would be on my bottom ten.

Her dance songs are fun, but I love her ballads. She really has some great ones.

Because it would require her to sing alone and on key

Seriously, I like the song.
