When Madonna hit big in 1984, all the girls in high school began to dress like her and do their hair like her. For a brief time from 1984-1985, little Madonna clones were running all over the country and they loved her and her fashion. It was a sight to behold, especially as a teenage young man in my Junior Year of High School.

[@skbwolverine]

I was in 9th grade at the time. My school was flooded with Madonna clones (including me to a certain extent-I just loved her accessories 😬😂).

This video is based on a great Marilyn Monroe movie called, “Gentleman Prefer Blondes” - definitely worth a watch! The song “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend” is basically the same set, choreography & dress as In this Madonna video. So, there is a lot of old Hollywood movie/ storyline behind this song/video. In the video, Madonna’s movie character is materialistic, but as she shows at the end, that isn’t her. I’ve heard an interview where she said she hates being referred to as “the material girl” - she’s never been able to shake the nickname due to this famous video/song!

[@emdusha5590]

This is Madonna before voice lessons. During “Evita” she began real lessons. Her sound was forever changed.

[@danalyntuthill1538]

That's right. This is autotune Madonna. Her voice became so much better after "Evita" and her voice was pretty good on "Ray of Light". Better, richer sounding. Two of my favorites are "Frozen" and "Tell Me." And you should consider "Evita" for your movie channel.

[@PlumbPitiful]

[@bogdog999]

@@danalyntuthill1538 She sounded better than this in the preceding "Shining Star". This is just the result of music engineers going overboard with audio effects. Fortunately this was her only hit song that was processed so. "Beautiful Stranger" demonstrates how sexy her real voice can be.

[@Amandahugankiss8888]

"La Isla Bonita" is my favorite Madonna song. Found out the other day it was originally written to be done by MJ but he passed on it. Can't imagine his voice doing it she was destined for it.

[@grecofit]

This was from 1984 off the Like A Virgin album - her second album and it was such a scandal at the time bc of the lyrics BUT you see at the end that she falls for the humble approach - it's a very tongue in cheek song that she had fun with ❤️

[@urbanurchin5930]

Madonna's early career music had a more "pop" sound. She was constantly re-inventing herself to stay one step ahead of what everyone else was doing. As she became more and more popular, her vocal range, subject matter, and song structure became more and more sophisticated. Madonna and Michael Jackson ruled the air waves in the early 80's. Ironically, I am / was the same age as both of them........

[@randykerchmar5296]

You were born around the same time, and you stay about the same age. How do you derive irony from this? Kind of the opposite.

[@PDC1987]

The notion that Madonna only ruled in the early 80s is hilarious. Vogue wasn’t even released until 1990!

[@LivingHistorysMysteries]

"Papa Don't Preach" was another huge hit for her in the 80's where she had that iconic higher range..Great song with a great message.

[@gem3614]

Madonna's voice in the 80's is different than anything in the 90's and after. She took vocal lessons for her movie Evita and you can hear the difference in her music.

[@GradyBroyles]

Bedtime Story is ... on another level. One of my top 3 fave Madonna videos. But you can never go wrong with her debut LP.

[@jlilley73]

One of my personal favorites of hers is "Cherish". Not one of her huge hits, but it's really sweet, and swinging at the same time -- great beat. "Papa Don't Preach" is a great song, one of her earlier serious songs. And for her very early provocative days, "Like a Virgin" is a must!

[@momD612]

True blue was pretty big!! 😍

[@kellyp136]

Cherish is an all time favourite

[@fnjesusfreak]

You might like Donna de Lory's (one of Madonna's longtime backup singers) "Just a Dream", which is basically a Madonna song from the Like a Prayer days.

[@carolki1315]

i used to dress like madonna during this time. check out 'angel', 'la isla bonita', 'into the groove', 'who's that girl'. she dominated the 80s!! we had so many artists that did amazing in the 80s.

[@moleman1976]

I'd recommend "Crazy for You", "Live to Tell", "Rain", "Open Your Heart", and "Into the Groove" as some songs that were big hits, but aren't as iconic as some of her other songs. Crazy for You is my favorite Madonna song - it's a beautiful love song that she sings wonderfully! Madonna was one of the true icons of the 80's (with hits into the 90's, but I'm talking about defining a decade). She was one of the first, along with MJ, to take full advantage of the power of MTV at that time, and define (and redefine) herself through the videos she put out. This was her "Material Girl" phase, and it (and "Like a Virgin") launched her as a megastar. Her later songs were completely different, from this and from each other. There's no doubt that she captivated the popular audience for well over a decade, and still resonates with fans today. That's a hell of a career!

[@stevebrien1041]

Crazy for You is a great love song

[@teresajarrell452]

❤️❤️❤️ LIVE TO TELL !! 👍😃❣️

I would say Into the Groove is one of her most iconic hits, definitely in the top 5. The others I agree with, especially Live To Tell.

Madonna delivers so many personas. This was pure 1980s materialism. I loved her early songs Burning Up, Borderline, and Lucky Star. Live to Tell and La Isla Bonita are the two in which I most enjoy her voice.

[EDIT to correct my error] It’s ok, guys! She’s playing a character! Hang on to the end. One of her best videos, which is based a musical number In a Marilyn Monroe movie called Gentleman Prefer Blonds and the song is “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend”

[@poetinmyheart94]

She was an actress playing a 'material girl'. At the beginning of the video, she was in the dressing room on the phone to a girlfriend talking about how some guy thinks he can buy her with expensive things. She wasn't impressed. The 'director' in the video gave her flowers after she'd finished filming and took her on a date in his truck. She was after a man who could give her the things that money can't buy. ❤

[@odonnelly46]

This song was a huge hit! Also, near the beginning of the video, they have her talking to a friend where she makes it clear that she is NOT a material girl, and asks her friend if she wants the diamond necklace she was given. The "song" in the movie was her acting like she was, but just playing a part.

[@tdub102]

Madonna has really had a variety of sounds over the years. "Material Girl" is from the 80s, then you got something like "Take a Bow", and "You Must Love Me" from Evita, to "Ray of Light"... she's keeps recreating herself

Amber and J, Keep this in mind in the 1980s we had an economic surge also known as the age of decadence. Parties, cocaine in abundance and people charged everything on credit cards for the first time… the Reagan Years 40th president of the United States from 1981 to 1989. I believe she wrote the song to reflect our culture of the time.

One of her first hits was “Crazy for You”, a very slow song and a much later hit was “Don’t Tell Me”. Both are very different than anything you’ve heard from her before. And both are excellent songs. She really does reinvent herself over and over.

[@loramacrae-lopes6293]

Madonna has had so many good songs, seemingly reinventing herself each decade. Her earlier pop songs are fun and catchy, but my favorites are “Live To Tell” and both absolutely incredible hits from Evita, “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” and “You Must Love Me” which won an Oscar and really show her true vocal talent.

[@tebindack]

Madonna was in her artistic prime in the ‘90s. Ray of Light (‘98) is one the best pop albums ever recorded (even better than her outstanding ‘89 release, Like a Prayer). Check out masterpieces “Rain,” “Take a Bow,” “Ray of Light” and “Frozen.” The songs are incredible and the videos are visually stunning. If you want something smokin’ hot, take a look at “Justify My Love,” “Erotica” and “Human Nature.” 2005’s Confessions on a Dance Floor is Madonna’s third best album and also top-notch with “Hung Up,” “Sorry” and “Jump.” Enjoy!

[@matthewtemple3902]

Tongue and cheek with a wink and a smile. It's all in the eyes, movement, dance, and the music. I still can't believe you had never heard these songs before but so happy you have now, and the true fan comes with repeat viewings/hearings and consuming everything. Good luck. Catch 'Lucky Star' her 2nd video, and then 'Like a Virgin' but they are all so good.

[@joiedevivre2005]

Madonna has the uncanny ability to transform herself into almost anything she chooses at any given time - kind of like David Bowie did. My favorite Madonna song is one a lot of people don't think of when naming her songs - "Love Don't Live Here Anymore". It was on her "Like A Virgin" album, but she also put it on her 3rd album & released it as a single then. I think it really showcases her voice & has that 70's soul feel to it.

[@doloreswitkowski5578]

I love her version also. However, Love Don't Live Here Anymore is not her song. She was not the writer or the first person t0 record it. It was Rose Royce who wrote and recorded it in 1978. You should check it out.

This was released in 1984/5 and, yes, her voice was much higher at the start of her career. Madonna always cited Material Girl as her least favourite of all her songs, although she seems to have reclaimed it over the past decade and performed it on her last tour. The "materialistic" lyrics are a bit cringeworthy but I love that she undermines them in the video with the big star being won over by the handpicked flowers and the rundown truck. Very clever.

Vintage Madonna, before her brain melted

[@Pinkielover]

Definitely my favorite song by her, Actually the songs about material girls and how she doesn't want to be one... However, what is often missed is that Madonna was actually playing the role of an actress as a materialistic woman, and at the end of the video, she can be seen out of her actress role and getting into an old pick-up truck with the director, suggesting she is not actually wealthy at all. Indeed, the director pretends to be penniless as he realises that she has no interest in being showered in luxury gifts. In one scene, he amusingly hands Madonna a bunch of cheap-looking flowers in her dressing room. The song cranks if you have a good system in your car

[@michelleedwards2636]

Crazy for you is another awesome Madonna song

This is the one that gave her the nickname of the “Material Girl” in the 80’s. The more videos and music of hers you cover you will understand why they call her also, “the Mother of Reinvention”.

I was a teenager in 80's Britain, who went on to work in the greed soaked world of London Private Banking. This song, the lyrics, the imagery, the whole attitude, sums up that time in the 80's for me. Can I have a time machine please...........

This was still pretty early Madonna and she was still honing her vocal sounds. Her sound has definitely evolved.

[@MikeHorror67]

"Crazy For You" from the movie Vision Quest & "Live To Tell" from the movie At Close Range are both great Madonna tunes.

[@jonathangeraldrobinson720]

She did sing in a higher range early in her career. "Borderline," "Lucky Star," "Burnin' Up." To be honest, the only songs I ever really liked from her were "Live to Tell," and "Ray of Light."

❤️❤️❤️ LIVE TO TELL !! 👍😃❣️

I remember an old episode of VH1 Behind the Music said in her first couple albums the studio altered her voice to sound younger bc they felt her voice was too low for her age....and they wanted to appeal to the younger demographic

[@richardc8795]

@@manya623 This is true.

[@cristoferchanimak]

Madonna’s voice is low and soulful in “Express Yourself” and “Rescue Me” haha

[@princessxera]

Madonna made her mark with Material Girl, but to see her range of talent also listen to Live to Tell, Oh Father, This Used To Be Our Playground, and the almost unknown Spanish Eyes.

Another great some by Madonna. I’m almost 50 and grew up listening to Madonna for years, and I also have loved old movies and Love Marilyn Monroe. You guys should definitely check the movies, Gentlemen’s prefer blondes, Marilyn’s Diamonds are a girls best friend she sings in the movie is Wonderful! And this video is a take from that movie

[@janethernandez724]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Yes, one of the many popular songs from Madonna early in her career! By now you may have already read this video where Madonna is in this lovely pink dress that this scene is taken from the old movie "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" with Marilyn Monroe's singing a song called "Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend" Amber and Jay I think you missed the scene near the beginning where she receives a gift from a guy and it turned out to be a diamond necklace, she phones a friend of hers saying that “he is still trying to impress her with expensive gifts”, and she asks her friend “Do you want it” she not accepting it for herself, she is giving it away, remember he's a Hollywood director trying to win Madonna’s heart , and he watches her while discovering that, contrary to her song, Madonna was not impressed by money and expensive gifts, so he pretended to be penniless and succeeded in taking her out on a date, and I liked how he bought that truck from the old man near the end of the video! Enjoyed your reaction as always! ☮💕

This was also a nod to the 40s-50s musical movies. So much of the 80s style was taken from those decades.

[@SRGots]

I complain about being older all the time but it’s songs like this that make me realize how lucky I was to grow up in the 80s. It was so much fun. I was 10 when this was out and it brings back so many great memories.

Michael and Madonna set the tone of the early 80’s there were no stars brighter. You could never write a history of the eighties without these two setting the soundtrack on it’s course.

Originally when Madonna was shopped around as an up and coming artist, producers edited recordings of her voice higher to make her sound younger. This sound is present in Material Girl, Like a Virgin, and Holiday.
