The Glamorous Life VS Holiday?

Which song is better and why? I think they are both very catchy tracks, that hook people on the very first listen.

Madonna "Holiday" VS Sheila E. "The Glamorous Life"

Let the debate begin...

For me, it's definitely the Glamorous Life. I love the rhythm... One of my favorite Prince drum-patterns.

The Glamorous Life. ESPECIALLY the ext'd version. Just more complex musically. it DARES you NOT to move. Haven't heard Holiday since the 80s (when Madonna got R & B airplay) and don't miss it.

Glamorous life, but just barely. Shiela E.'s voice is so weak in that song lol it makes Madonna look like Patti Labelle.

"The Glamorous Life"

For reasons I can't really explain, "Holiday" is one of my least favorite Madonna hits.

holiday! I can never get tired of that song (though I did for some time)

glamourous life is also fabulous, but it's way too repetitive, while holiday has changing harmonies and is more singable

Agreed.. That version was better than the wax version of Holiday. Of course, Shelia's work on percussion on Glamorous Life can't be touched or matched.

how about Blond Ambition Holiday vs. Family Jamm Glamorous Life?

i was listening to that version of TGL yesterday before this thread, and positively LOVE it. Sheila's vocal was the best i'd ever heard it that night.

Glamorous Life.....never really cared much for Madonna. A few of her songs are o.k. "Holiday" just doesn't grab me like "Glamorous Life".
