but there's nothing from erotica on it. :(

surely people remember true blue as an album, given how many of its songs were singles? and standards, at that.
always got the impression that like a prayer was the consensus ::canon:: favourite, with a smaller but significant minority of critics/fans (most of whom are pretty hardcore madonna fans) repping for erotica.

(the erotica backers are, of course, correct.)

til death do us part is my favorite madonna song at this point. It's just utterly irresistible. That dry-ass chicken clucking against the liquid guitar splashes and that melllooodyyyy, oh heavens help me.
Every time I play LAP all the way through I like it more and more as an album too. Might be my favorite Madonna album as a whole now.

i listened to this album yesterday and 1. i don't think i voted for "cherish" in the madonna poll 2. i think it's my favorite madonna song now? 3. it's at least the closest she came to recording a scritti politti song. that instrumentation!

'Till Death Do Us Part' is perfection, one of my Top 4 tracks on the LP along with the title track, 'Dear Jessie' and 'Oh Father' ... I've been listening to Like a Prayer a lot recently. Excellently produced, almost every song is fantastic and it has Prince on it!

Wait, how come Erotica has been polled twice and Like a Prayer hasn't been polled at all?
(Not counting the artist poll, of course)
