Lourdes really looks like her mother in some ways, but I think the eyebrows are the key feature.

I'm not in charge, but it would be nice to see this as a two-part poll, with a second poll excluding all the songs that place in this poll.

I'll stop talking now

songs that are terrible: "material girl" "la isla bonita"
― horseshoe, Thursday, 21 February 2013 22:10 (thirteen years ago)
"La Isla Bonita" is not terrible, you are
― This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Thursday, 21 February 2013 22:11 (thirteen years ago)
Even better: 2nd poll excludes the top songs from the 1st poll AND the voters from the 1st poll.

i love you Dan but that song is so dumb

material girl is kinda terrible - sort of dead-inside, plodding
La Isla Bonita is awesome I will FITE you horseshoe

it's pretty much nonsensical but that rhythm GETS ME
if you want a super dumb popular Madonna song, you don't need to look any further than "Cherish"
― This beat is TWEENCHRONIC (DJP), Thursday, 21 February 2013 22:13 (thirteen years ago)
also La Isla Bonita is fun to sing!

"La Isla Bonita" has a killer bridge

YES

lyrics aside, I love Cherish, Material Girl, and La Isla Bonita but LIB is definitely the dumbest of those three. "When it's time for siesta" blah blah

also that part where says 'Where a girl loves a boy and a boy...dramatic pause....loves...dramatic pause...a girl'

i have to admit i kind of like cherish. at least what it's expressing seems relatable/real? not just cheesy exoticism that doesn't even make sense.

cracks me up every time
The 12" mix of "La Isla Bonita" is an improvement.

"La Isla Bonita" was written by Patrick Leonard and Bruce Gaitsch. The song was previously written as a lament for the mythical Spanish island called San Pedro and was offered to Michael Jackson for his Bad album, who, according to Gaitsch, turned it down.[1] While working with Leonard on the True Blue album, Madonna accepted it in Jackson's place and wrote the song's lyrics and melody, thus earning herself a co-writing credit.[2

look, it's not my fault you people can't understand the inherent romance of the mobile siesta

I didn't know La Isla Bonita was in Mobile.

that's all

LIB and Cherish are great! And Material Girl is a lot of fun at karaoke! (So are Like A Virgin and Like A Prayer)
