I feel like the people discounting the "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World" should hear the vastly superior album version
It's much, much better than everything on Diamonds and Pearls which I pretty much hate aside from "Gett Off"

"Money Don't Matter 2 Night" is much better MOR Prince than "TMBGITW," but I actually kinda like both of them.

xp yeah they only opened it up recently, like within the past few months
― dyl, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 16:55 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, that bottom 40 is WAY better.

i remember these polls that matos used to do: Billboard Hot 100 New Entries, December 2003
he polled new hot 100 entries for every month from jan 2000 to dec 2003, it was p fun
― dyl, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 17:04 (nine years ago) link
Wow, I totally missed all that.
― Small Town Pizza Lawyer (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 17:13 (nine years ago) link
Voted "Whatta Man," but big love to "I'll Remember" and "Gin & Juice." Of the many terrible covers, I'll take the 10,000 Maniacs one, even though Natalie Merchant could drain the sexiness out of a sex swamp. I had happily forgotten that Richard Marx and Michael Bolton were still charting into the mid-'90s. I respect the Bruce song more than I love it, "Bump n Grind" suffers from knowing too much about R. Kelly.
I think in my mind I had fused the Big Mountain version of "Baby I Love Your Way" with the Will to Power version, to the extent that I remembered them as the same song.
― something of an astrological coup (tipsy mothra), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 18:35 (nine years ago) link
lol I didn't even notice it was the Big Mountain version. I just glanced and thought it was Will to Power and briefly thought "wasn't that from earlier than 1994?"
― Small Town Pizza Lawyer (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 18:38 (nine years ago) link
Hint: Will To Power is way, way better.
I'm surprised by all of the positive mentions of "I'll Remember" because, personally, I'll remember "I'll Remember" as the second blandest hit Madonna had had at that point (after the drippy "This Used To Be My Playground").
― Honey Mustard On My Tunic (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 18:43 (nine years ago) link
lol 1994...I'll Remember is on a soundtrack with Mudhoney's Run Shithead Run.
― Small Town Pizza Lawyer (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 18:45 (nine years ago) link
"Playground" does nothing for me, but I love the melodic turns in "I'll Remember" (basically, I love most Patrick Leonard-Madonna compositions).
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 18:46 (nine years ago) link
that'll be the With Honors soundtrack, also home to Kristen Hersh's "Your Ghost"
The keyboard bedrock of I'll Remember is absolutely lovely.
― Small Town Pizza Lawyer (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 18:47 (nine years ago) link
I saw With Honors at least a couple times, but never really looked at the soundtrack. It's absurd and great at the same time.
― Small Town Pizza Lawyer (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 21 April 2015 18:48 (nine years ago) link
I love that the bassline starts below the root on each repetition. I love those backwards strings in the bridge. I love the patient undulations of the synths. It's perfect balladry.
― Eric H., Tuesday, 21 April 2015 19:02 (nine years ago) link
How many fucking versions of Baby I Love Your Way can there be?
― pplains, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:13 (nine years ago) link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby,_I_Love_Your_Way
3, apparently?
― DJP, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:15 (nine years ago) link
Had to have been a UB40 version in there somewhere. Had to have been.
― pplains, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 20:33 (nine years ago) link
Lol Alfred I was talking about the song, my bad
Really stoked about the love for I'll Remember after its somewhat lackluster performance on the Madonna poll; it was def top 5 on my ballot though. Def in the running for me, tho Snoop Dogg, Crash Test Dummies, "Dunkie Butt" and "All that She Wants" are also huge for me. And I dont remember Player's Ball making top 40
