great list couldn't agree more with having diamonds and pearls in the top 5 sign o times purple rain 1999 are by far prince's 3 greatest albums

Skips for Impressive Instant and Paradise??? Whaaaatttt??? Lol. Well, sis, I gotta disagree there. Those are absolute bangers and she’s done amazing live performances and remixes for these… check them out and you may appreciate the songs more.

Glad you said what you said about impressive instant… it is my least fave too… everyone else seems to like it… don’t get it

impress and paradise is my fav

I´M ADDICTED FILLER??? That´s one of Madonna´s best dance songs since forever. You dont like experimental electronic and european dance scene.

IMPRESSIVE INSTANT is my favourite, GONE and PARADISE, NOBODY´S PERFECT

IMPRESSIVE INSTANT ❤

This album is not even in my Top 10 Favorite Madonna albums but I adore the "Music" era with passion - it's style, sound, videos, lyrics, visuals. Beyonce was definitely inspired by it while making her Cowboy Carter album. I love all the singles here. Runaway Lover is my favorite non-single. Can't believe Madonna fans usually dislike it

The Queen of Pop

Great video review as always, although for me, Impressive Instant and Paradise are the real gems on the album. What it Feels like..., Gone and I deserve it - skip, skip, skip. Can not wait to see your favorites and least favorites from the Ray 🙂

Paradise (Not For me) is a masterpiece. Such a beautiful song and definitely the most unique Madonna songs out there. The fact that Madonna made songs like Human Nature, Erotica or Vogue and then make this song. How was that even possible. And she looks stunning in the video. 11/10. And I really like impressive instant too

1. Erotica 2. Ray Of Light 3. Confessions 4. Bedtime Stories 5. True Blue 6. Like A Prayer 7. Madonna 8. I'm Breathless 9. Rebel Heart 10. American Life 11. Music 12. Like A Virgin 13. Madame X 14. MDNA 15. Hard Candy

Excellent ranking. I agree with most only i would have rated Confessions higher but its very astute recommendations here.

Yes it is the best song on the album! It was great at the Confessions tour!

Hard Candy is the fucking worst. RAY OF LIGHT is The Empire Strikes Back of all studio albums by Madonna Ciccone.

True Blue and Like a Prayer are overrated? Are you fucking kidding? I was around in 1986 and 1989 and without those two albums, Madonna Ciccone would never ever become the Superstar that those two albums made her. Especially since after that came Erotica, and the years-long Backlash that followed. I remember all of it.

В чём прикол?

American Life has become my favorite album after COADF

Buy what you like don’t buy thinking your going to buy so thing that’s going to go up in value everything gets reissued and usually reissues come in better quality

Micheal Jackson a legend, his music was outstanding but a shame about the accusations towards him.

Her first Album is her Best & “Rebel Heart” is her Worst.

1. Ray of Light 2. Erotica 3. Bedtime Stories 4. Music 5. American Life 6. Confessions 7. True Blue 8. Madonna 9. Like A Prayer 10. Like A Virgin 11. Rebel Heart 12. MDNA 13. Hard Candy 14. Madame X 1992-2006 madonna is my absolute favorite. Just flawless musical output back to back and the peak of her artistry and authenticity

I loveeee the album cover for madonnas MDNA 😍

mdna was great

I think u, Sir, r now my Favorite Ranker. I TOTALLY agree w/ u on "Ray of Light" being Number 1 on a Chart. NEVER bought ANYTHING AFTER Confessions, though there r SOME Hits... It shall NEVER Surpass Ray of Light. The Debut Album is & STILL is one of my favorite Abums, thugh "Like a Virgin" gets a Higher Ranking. Music was the LAST Album that i purchased in the Early 2000's. I would PURCHASE Something 2 Remember OVER, say, Rebel Heart or MDNA. OK... THE LAST Album i purchased was "Finally Enough Love".... I love practically EVERY Track on thet. Thanks 4 hearing me Ramble on, lol!!

ROL, bedtime stories and true blue are my absolute faves... erotica too!

Its so crazy how different peoples opinions on music can be, in general, not the album. I Love New York is one of my absolute faves. Hollywood is my number 1 but i had seen someone claim that as her worst

Love Prince

Love Madonna older Albums

Mine would be 15. Madame X. Great concept, bad execution, the moments of music exploration are offusced by the commercialism, copy and paste of music genres. 14. MDNA. Fun but simple, there's some really strong tracks but also a lot of bad ones, creating a mixed experience. 13. Like a Virgin. Iconic songs, but the material isn't really that strong as a full album, it's carried by the singles. 12. Hard Candy. I love the direction that she goes on the sound here, some bops, but to many fillers, should have been 8 more focused songs as her debut. 11. I'm Breathless. Great performance and vocals on the very specific genre tracks, it does what is supposed to do with taste but bring nothing groundbreaking. 10. Rebel Heart. It's clearly unfinished, worst production of her career with some of her best lyricism. 9. American Life. It could be better, the outtakes are superior and more emotional and political, some of those songs are more of a point then a song, and the political message is lost in the tracklist. 8. True Blue. Strong 80s pop, Latin instrumentation, bubblegum synths and a lot of attitude, simple but great stuff. 7. Bedtime Stories. A much better mashup of genres then MX, hip hop, rnb, alt, trance and pop under a great low-key approach. Some tracks worked better then others, she was also still developing lyrically. 6. Madonna. Simple lyrics that work so well, goditer post disco production, surprisingly one of the best debut albums of all time, it gets overlooked by most people because of the lack of historical moments and complex lyrics, but it sounds amazing and detailed. 5. Like a Prayer. Strong concept, strong execution, unique and powerful. It just gets unserious at certain times taking you out of the baroque anti religious fantasy that the album puts you in. 4. Erotica. Her greatest drums production, most ambitious concept, incredible vocal performance, well suited lyrics, unique atmosphere, I would just say it's maybe a little too long sometimes? But only sometimes. 3. Music. Her underrated Bible, pioneering pop, electronic, experimental and even county production. Probably her most influential album in many fronts, top tier production, a lot of music after this followed its rulebook in secret. 2. Confessions. It suited her voice so well, god production exploring many genres of pop, dance and electronic music, super ahead of its time making everything like a DJ set, also her best album to listen on LSD. 1. Ray Of Light, god tier exploration of so many genres and ideas, her peak lyricism and subjectivity. Created a unique sound pallet and a unique moment in pop history, what if one of the main figures in commercial music showed a heart? A brain? A new groove. Explored many topics and sounds unseen and unrivalled on pop music.

1. Debut album is a fun beginning but not particularly amazing anymore, still fun tho. 2. Like A Virgin is easily on the weaker side, the singles are (mostly) great, but those last three songs (Shoo Bee Doo, Pretender, Stay), literal filler. 😭 It would be SO much stronger if instead of those three songs it had Into the Groove (which later versions got), Crazy for You, and Gambler. 3. True Blue is already possibly the best album of the 80s, but if it lost Jimmy Jimmy, and instead gained the Who’s that Girl OST singles (the title track, Causing A Commotion, The Look of Love), as well as Spotlight and M’s original version of Each Time You Break My Heart, it would be 13 tracks of pure perfection that not even Thriller could’ve hoped to achieve. 4. The only weak song on Like A Prayer is (in my opinion) Love Song, but it contributed to the creation of Hung Up almost two decades later so I can’t hate it. 5. Erotica is perfect (I always go to the version without Did You Do It?, lol), 6. Bedtime Stories is great but I would’ve removed Don’t Stop and I’d Rather Be Your Lover and instead put Your Honesty, flows better in my opinion. 7. Ray of Light is perfect. 8. Music is perfect. 9. American Life is perfect. 10. Confessions is perfect. 11. Hard Candy is fun but not perfect. 12. MDNA is also fun (and MDNA is still her best tour imo, and yes I attended Confessions Tour in person). 13. Rebel Heart got a messy release, but if it had been organized better into a proper double album (the Rebel and the Heart sides) it would’ve been pretty damn amazing. The main problem is that it feels all over the place, but you can easily take 12 songs from it and create a more cohesive album that’s better than any pop album released by any other pop artist in the last 10 years. 14. As for Madame X, most people just didn’t understand it, but frankly I think it’s literal genius.

Ugh Ray of light so overrated frozen only really good song Best album’s Madonna… like a prayer erotica confessions bedtime stories true blue

So the first album is better than like a prayer? Come on...

1.True Blue 2.Like a Virgin 3.Ray of Light 4.Confessions 5.Music

Thank you, American Life is one of her worst albums.

Ray of Light is the best album Madonna has ever made. She won't top that.

My ranking 1. Confessions 2. Madonna 3. Bedtime Stories 4. Erotica 5. Hard Candy (I don’t care what anyone says, this album is lit) 6. I’m Breathless 7. True Blue 8. Like a Prayer 9. American life 10. Ray of Light 11. Music 12. Like a Virgin 13. Madame X 14. MDNA 15. Rebel Heart

Rate madonnas tours

I honestly like MDNA , in fact I listen to it frequently. I think is has some gems.

Luv this man, luv that u give rebel heart some luv. Most people are not fans and it is def in my 2nd as well after ray of light.

My top three albums are confessions on a dance floor MDNA Rebel heart

Love this album❤

Super Deluxe version of Rebel Heart, is my favorite ❤

Totally agree on Rebel Heart being underrated. I just love it. Madame X is by far my least favourite

1. Like A Prayer 2. Ray of Light 3. Confessions on a Dance Floor 4. True Blue 5. Rebel Heart 6. American Life 7. Music 8. Erotica 9. Bedtime Stories 10. Madonna 11. Like A Virgin 12. MDNA 13. Madame X 14. Hard Candy It still makes me so sad how Rebel Heart was so overlooked worldwide. Living For Love should have been Madonna's comeback anthem and should be one of her staple, iconic songs. Ghosttown should have ruled the airwaves and charts and award seasons. Granted, there are like 4 songs that should have never made it to the album and it probably would be one of her most perfect albums ever.

I like her first album best,

I also defend Rebel Heart like you fo and it's also my top 2 followed by ray of light

To me Like a prayer is the most versatile, most personal, musically complex artistic but pure pop masterpiece with great lyrics and visuals (Like a prayer, Express yourself, Cherish and Oh father are the best music videos ever). Also great messages. Ray of light is also a genius work and Erotica was so ahead of its time. My close second and third. And American life is her most underrated album ever. I give her the fourth place. The worst album is def MDNA 90% of the songs are trash, not even the tour helped ...

I'm Breathless is Madonna studio album! It has her name on it. It's not a soundtrack. The Dick Tracy soundtrack is something completely different.

My all-time favorite record of hers. Loved it from day one.
