Beat Goes On should have been a single, is a very good song. Mer Girl is a masterpiece it deserves number one spot, although i don't think it had have any success in the charts. There are many other songs in her catalogue that deserved to be single. Among them, Sky Fits Heaven, I Deserve It, Skin, Beautiful Scars... and many others.

I'm making my list before referencing the article. In no order, for me:

Sky Fits Heaven or Little Star (Ray Of Light)

What Can You Lose (I'm Breathless)

Don't Stop (Bedtime Stories)

I'm A Sinner (MDNA)

Future Lovers (Confessions On A Dance Floor)

Honorable Mention: Where Life Begins (just a great ode to oral sex)

1. Incredible - Hard Candy. A nice edit of this track without the end breakdown would have been nice. It has a very melodic chorus and the lyrics are uplifting. The production is deamnding and aggressive and somewhat experimental.

2. I'm Addicted - MDNA. I am not sure why a song like "Give Me All your luvin" was even considered as an album track when songs like the engaging and irresistible track that harkens Confessions On A Dancefloor-like material exists on that album. I'm Addicted was also a great track performed on the MDNA Tour. A missed opportunity.

3. Body Shop - Rebel Heart. Again, "Bitch Im Madonna" gets a release but this indie r&b track gets pushed in the middle for some odd reason. This soulful and endearing track is ripe with melody and class. it is the "Something To Remember" - like Madonna we know and love. The lyrics are sexy but not shocking like Holy Water. The song was also performed on the tour and deserved a video.

4. Til Death Do Us Part - Like A Prayer. While I think they picked the right singles for LAP, Till Death would have been a great performance on the Blonde Ambition Tour. I was not a big fan of Dear Jessie. However this track struck a nerve with me. Its dark lyrics about spousal and emotional abuse over a lighthearted pop beat stopped me dead in my tracks.

5. Shoo Be Doo - Like A Vigrin. I think they picked the right inslg eoff this album too, however this track solely written by Madonna is such a great Motown sound gem hidden at the later half of the album. The soul and lighthearted lyrics about new love is cheesy, but fun. I play this song very often. It was liked enough by the company at least to appear as a B-Side to Dress U Up.

Future Lovers is a great song.

Good choices, Body Shop is good as well as Til Death. Unlike you, i love Dear Jessie is very Jackson- ish lyrics and music. Another one that is good is Best Night, it seems to me there is a lot of intimacy and vulnerability in her performance.

I think these are some of Madonna's best non-singles....

"Falling Free" (from MDNA)

"To Have and Not To Hold" (from Ray Of Light)

"She's Not Me" (from Hard Candy)

"Til Death Do Us Part" (from Like A Prayer)

"Words" (from Erotica)

"Inside Of Me" (from Bedtime Stories)

"Gone" (from Music)

"Push" (from Confessions On A Dancefloor)

"Beautiful Killer" (from MDNA)

"Beautiful Scars" (from Rebel Heart)

Shoo be doo be doo ooh la la come 2 me baby . Love that 1.

I haven't looked at the list yet, but if they aren't counting "Into the Groove" as a single, that'd be my #1 pick. I fully agree with paisleypark4 "Til Death Do Us Part" is a GREAT song. Also "Words," "Push," and "I'd Rather Be Your Lover." But there are so many more that could be mentioned.

"Secret Garden" from Erotica. Ahead of it's time.

Thats the jam right there. "A petal that isn't torn, a heart that will not harden"

I was about to say the same. A great song, it's a very obscure gem in her carreer.
