T-Heads never this aggressive. Closer to mutant disco.

wau @ WIFLFAG beating both "music" and "don't tell me"
that's a disapproving wau btw

Another vote for album over single version.

It's better than either, so I'm not terribly surprised.

great image

lol'ing at the acronym
"La Isla Bonita" was my #5, in part reactively against the haters
― Euler, Friday, 8 March 2013 19:06 (thirteen years ago)
i love the WIFLFAG video but find both video and album versions of the song a snooze, it was a real disappointment after the two great singles off that album
― r&b morcilla (lex pretend), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:09 (thirteen years ago)
as I said upthread, I think WIFLFAG is her best single of the 00s
― "Bellini." (DJP), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:14 (thirteen years ago)
(and it still scraped onto my ballot at #20)
― "Bellini." (DJP), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:15 (thirteen years ago)
"La Isla Bonita" is on the same level as "Hanky Panky" and "Masterpiece"
― ferreira rocher (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:18 (thirteen years ago)
Like a Virgin is really low. Not to diss Everybody but the fact that it placed higher than LAV is kinda perverse

25. "FROZEN" from Ray of Light (1998) [18 votes, 381 points]
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 8 March 2013 19:23 (thirteen years ago)
J admire Frozen without er warming to it
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:31 (thirteen years ago)
I guess no one has much to say about Frozen. I like it, but I think most of its impact was being the first single from Ray of Light in 1998 and being so different audio-visually than anything she'd attempted in the past, especially among her singles (and ESPECIALLY among her lead-off singles). Daring.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 8 March 2013 19:39 (thirteen years ago)
"Frozen" is still one of the prettiest Madonna singles. I would have voted it in my top 10, except that I forgot to vote.

yessssss
but also tooo lowww
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:42 (thirteen years ago)
I voted for Frozen. Still my favorite from Ray of Light, although I remember when I first heard it, preferring a remix. Not sure which one it is at this point. Trying to sort through the mess of youtubes.
― how's life, Friday, 8 March 2013 19:43 (thirteen years ago)
I love Frozen but I can't remember if I voted for it. Loooooove the video
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:46 (thirteen years ago)
Damn, so sad to see I forgot to vote and seeing all these great songs show up way too low. One of the greatest pop ballads of all time, and still her longest reigning #1 in the US.
― justfanoe (Greg Fanoe), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:46 (thirteen years ago)
i think 'power of goodbye' is my fave single from rol but i think that's the one album where actually i do prefer the album tracks to all the singles

― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:48 (thirteen years ago)
"take a bow" is a beautiful, stately, classic pop tune. but as her goodbye songs go, "the power of good-bye" crushes it.
― fact checking cuz, Friday, 8 March 2013 19:48 (thirteen years ago)
Otm balls. I head straight for "Swim."

"Swim" rules so hard
― "Bellini." (DJP), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:49 (thirteen years ago)
Take a Bow is really nice, and too easy to take for granted. It's so unspectacular that its easy to overlook its craft. Tellingly, it didn't Mae my ballot.

Listening to 'Music' on the spotify list --- didn't like then, still don't. It's not terrible but it feels more facepalm than anything
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:53 (thirteen years ago)
"Swim" is amazing!! I actually was wondering if "Frozen" would place at #1; I am stunned it is this low (not bcz it's my fave but bcz it seems like total ILM bait)
― ferreira rocher (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:55 (thirteen years ago)
i was gonna say lex otm about "what it feels like for a girl" but you know it always surprises me whenever i listen to it, there are so many small things going on at once
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Friday, 8 March 2013 19:56 (thirteen years ago)
"Don't Tell Me" really suffers the horrible unison on the doubled vocals

and I'm SOOOOO glad that Til Death Do We Part placed so well -- it's such a gorgeous song

yeah i'm happy it's at least this high. massive hit but no video so it's a deep single now. boy as double a-sides go (deliberate or eventual) i'd put this up there w/ 'hello goodbye'/'i am the walrus' if not 'penny lane'/'strawberry fields forever'.
