well it's a great song. it's my boss' favourite Madonna song. another co-worker loved it, then she was really paying attention to the lyrics and said, 'omg. this is a sad song. i don't know if i like it as much now'

regardless of my opinions regarding her talents ........Congratulations

You're killing me today

I have such a love/hate relationshipt with the woman's music. Some days I want to listeno to NOTHING but her stuff, and other days the mere mention of her name revolts me.

And yeah, congrats to Madge!

Congrats, Ms. Ciccone!

Way to go Madge! I still say that "Get Together" kicks "Hung Up" ass from that album.

Here's hope for her retirement

Never liked her music but congrats to her.

I'm such a big fan of 'Gimme Gimme Gimme' that I never actually got into 'Hung Up'. I guess from the singles I like 'Jump' the most but nowadays when I listen to COAD I just skip the first songs... I usually play everything from 'Forbidden Love' on (although I do skip 'How High' sometimes... and I love the live version of 'Let It Will Be' but the album version is kinda blah

"Get Together" is my favorite song from COADF.I was hooked on it from the moment I heard it

"Jump" was my favourite for a while. loved it live. there's definitely an energy about that song.

i thought "Gimme Gimme Gimme'" was well worked around "Hung Up". i thought it was the perfect 1st single for the album.

this is one of those albums that my favourite song was different each week. lol

I'm all about "Like It or Not" from Confessions. Love it all, pretty much, though!

i remember you telling me about it when you heard it; and that i would love it. you were right too. then again, there's not a song of hers or Kylie's for that matter, that i don't like.

okay

she sounds dead sexy singing in that lower register. and the pulsating beat in that song definitely drives it to the core. the opening line alone couldn't have been sung by anyone else.

and let's not even get started on "Sorry"

Stuart Price should pat himself on the back. nevermind. he probably did. LOL

and he just helped Kylie be the 1st artist in history to have a #1 album in the 80's, 90's, 00's, and 10's.

so back on topic...

it really is quite an achievement considering her last album was a compilation of songs that most people already have. Madonna, 'like it or not', definitley has a niche for creating perfect pop songs.

I would say that my favourite songs from Madonna's albums are:

MADONNA: Everybody

LIKE A VIRGIN: Dress You Up

TRUE BLUE: Papa Don't Preach

LIKE A PRAYER: Dear Jessie or Pray For The Spanish Eyes

I'M BREATHLESS:Back In Business

EROTICA:Secret Garden, Thief Of Hearts or Erotica

BEDTIME STORIES: Secret or Sanctuary

RAY OF LIGHT: Sky Fits Heaven or To Have And Not To Hold

MUSIC: Paradise (Not For Me)

AMERICAN LIFE: Nothing Fails

COAD: Like It Or Not

HARD CANDY: Miles Away

non-album songs: Gambler, This Used To Be My Playground, Time Stood Still

PS As you can see I really missed her doing ballads lol
