Madonna is the highest selling female recording artist of all time with 335 million records sold worldwide. In the states she has 12 no.1 hit and a record 38 top 10 hit singles from a female artist . An absolute legend. You must do more reactions of Madonna. Next song you must react too is like a prayer another classic Madonna song

[@Shrykespeare]

I've just realized that of the four solo artists that effectively OWNED the 80s - Madonna, Michael Jackson, Prince, and Whitney Houston... Madonna's the only one still alive. She had legions of teenage girls dressing like her, talking like her, doing their hair and makeup like her. She performed without fear, without apology, and without hesitation. She was the definition of an icon.

[@mgeek1]

Fun Fact: Madonna, Michael and Prince were all born in the same year, 1958, coincidentally. Michael and Madonna were born just 13 days apart.

[@Shrykespeare]

[@Shane-Flanagan]

[@bentucker2301]

The early stuff is my childhood

[@queenqueen977]

bruh, 99 percent of madonna fans ARE men. you mean straight men arent into her. gay men ARE men, you straights seem to forget.

[@221b-Maker-Street]

Madonna is a gay icon. I'd qualify your comment by saying not as many _straight_ men like (or will _admit_ to liking) Madonna.

[@221b-Maker-Street]

@@Shane-Flanagan Until we reach a point in time when homosexuality ceases to be something that straight people (mostly straight men) look down on, we'll never reach a point where gay kids feel it's OK to come out and not live a lie and feel they hide who they really are. Why should men be _frightened_ of being labelled gay anyway?! I don't know any women who are 'frightened' of being labelled a lesbian. Toxic masculinity has a lot to answer for, sadly... 😔

[@pixelrancher]

Voguing grew out of the gay/trans scene of the 1920s and 30s in Harlem and was more-or-less confined to African Americans. Much like “rap battles”, each “house” (much like a gang) battled each other on the dance floor. A great movie about voguing is “Paris Is Burning”. Can’t wait to see Rob vogue!

[@pacio49]

Madonna was taken to her first Ball in Harlem in the late 80's and she immediately began to work with the Drag House Xtravaganza (still in operation today) who not only appeared in the video (not in drag) but choreographed the dance moves for it. If you enjoy the music, you should take in the version that Madonna did to perform Vogue for the MTV VMA awards. She was one of the first pop stars to really amp up the performances at the VMAs with Like a Virgin back in the day, writhing around on stage and helping MTV get its youthful, edgy reputation. Back then, Michael Jackson was the King of Pop and Madonna was the Queen. Take in her halftime show for the Superbowl as well when she came in on the backs of hundreds of bare-chested male models dressed as Cleopatra... right after Elizabeth Taylor died. :-)

[@kpoppapi1493]

Yes that is the history. They were all old classic Hollywood stars she was talking about. I suggest watching the tv series POSE it will give you an understand how voguing originated.

[@Scary__fun]

"There's no context" ... uhm, not if the viewer doesn't know what the context is. Doh!

[@ArthurSB73]

There is a live version from an awards show that absolutely rocks!

[@DavidMichaelCommer]

That's a major part of the unstated subtext of the song. I think because the song picks up and becomes a lively dance track, the opening lyrics are overlooked by almost everybody, but they relate to Paris Is Burning: "Look around Everywhere you turn is heartache It's everywhere that you go (Just look around) You've tried everything you can to escape The pain of life that you know (Life that you know)" Vogue dancing was performed primarily by gay and trans people of color who often were homeless or housing insecure, many of whom resorted to sex work to survive, and therefore many of whom were living with HIV or dying from AIDS at the time. Their lives were incredibly difficult and devastating at times. (Paris Is Burning depicts all of this.) The escape from the harsh real world was going to balls (community-based dance clubs) where voguing competitions would be held and people could feel like winners. So when Madonna opens the song with the harsh real world, she then moves into the world of vogue dancing: "If all else fails And you long to be Something better than you are today I know a place where you can get away It's called the dance floor Yes, that's what it's for So, come on, vogue! Let your body move to the music Come on, vogue! Let your body go with the flow You know you can do it." Like a lot of songs by both Madonna and Britney Spears, this one is about dancing being an escape and a place to find freedom and self-satisfaction, but vogue is rooted in a subculture that marks a specific place and time in the world, and it's a lot more interesting in that way than just a catchy dance song (which of course it is).

[@ChuckBrierton]

I'm a metal guitarist and this is one of my all-time favorite tunes.

[@shawnclay241]

She's got some great songs. La Isla Bonita, Live to tell, Like a Virgin, papa don't preach, material girl, the entire soundtrack to Evita, like a prayer, are but a few.

[@carlsmith4878]

Yes! Evita sound track! You will get real music and actual singing. Her pop stuff is okay but she's a better singer than pop allowed her to be.

[@kathybwell]

Papa Don't Preach!!

[@paulamelnyk986]

Material Girl gets my vote.

[@eleven-hopper]

Get Into The Groove as well!

[@guillermoguerrero1951]

I was going to suggest the songs as you but more La Isla Bonita simply because she included some Latin flavor.

[@sleepbananas]

I always liked "This Used to be My Playground" because of the movie A League of Their Own.

[@RachelRenee-sq5pk]

The stars she’s talking about in this song are Iconic stars of the 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s . If you ever get a chance watch All About Eve with Bette Davis . Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers were not only actors, but accomplished dancers and singers. I love our silver screen icons 💕

[@ravenpoe7093]

And Bette Davis and just passed away a couple months before song was recorded so got the “We Love you” as a tribute. Whenever i see Rita Hayworth tho i wanna say “gave good face”

@@ravenpoe7093 I am old enough to remember going to see that film when I was a kid and Bette and Olivia appeared at the theater to promote the movie.

[@bsanderfer]

I mean, there are so many songs to choose from when it comes to Madonna: "Borderline," "Lucky Star," "Like a Virgin," "Material Girl," "Papa Don't Preach," "Live to Tell," "La Isla Bonita," "Crazy For You," "Like a Prayer," "Cherish," "Express Yourself," "Take a Bow," "Ray of Light." Probably didn't even come close to naming all the hits, honestly...

[@quinny6920]

Madonna knew how to reinvent herself every few years. She has so many hits I couldn’t even recommend one! Well maybe “ Live to tell” is one of my favs!

[@minusyou1]

That's why I hope they explore her music more. You can't just listen to a song or 3 and go "OK, I get what she's all about." Almost every song is its own thing while staying within pop. On a personal note Vogue is at the bottom of the list of her hits for me.

[@cheyenneburgess9717]

Ooooh, good one.

[@florenciaalvarez3213]

Agreed QUINNY definitely “Live To Tell”.

[@princessxera]

Live to Tell without a doubt, La Isla Bonita, Like a Prayer... but my favorite is almost completely unknown "Pray for Spanish Eyes"

[@MrsBungle78]

There’s something about Madonna at the top of her game...& she was for loooong ass time! I love Dear Jessie, Crazy For You, Oh Father... I could go on & on! * Oh! & Hanky Panky! That was a great tune!

[@oschvelez1]

She has SOOO many amazing songs. I feel like the earlier the recordings the better. Examples in my opinion: Borderline, Papa don’t preach, Live to tell, and definitely Into the groove!

[@jenniferwilliams4517]

Her whole album "Music" is powerful, I used to listen thru it while driving

[@stephm.3407]

Madonna's first album, released in 1983 self titled 'Madonna" coincided with MTV 's music video boom, and she set everything on fire, we had never seen anything like her before. Literally millions of girls in high school and junior high dressed like her (many people who think of 80's dress think of neon, this look was a HUGE part of the 80's - if you ever go to an 80's party, this is the look I would go for), I'm sure I still have lace gloves somewhere. Her first popular songs were "Holiday', 'Lucky Star', "Burning Up', 'Borderline', her first album (and subsequent albums of course) was one hit after the other. I think any of those songs give a much better flavor of how she started. Vogue was in 1990, and as an artist, she had already evolved quite bit by then. Check out her early stuff.

[@christinemeadows8789]

I completely agree her earlier stuff was totally awesome.

[@sanigirlmpls3732]

Yes. Do her early stuff. I was 10 when those came out and my favorites were Madonna--Prince-Michael Jackson.

[@theodoreritola9758]

VOGUE Yes BUT Vogue Came out in 1990

[@AmandaPaige71]

I still have my lace gloves too!!! I used to wear them to the skating rink on the weekends when I was in middle and high school!! Great memories!!! 🤗💗🤗

[@Y_.R]

I had strips of lace in every color to use as headbands with all my outfits. I had the short permed hair she had in the Like a Virgin video. She changed style completely!

[@selat2]

Like a Prayer is probably one of her best tracks that unfortunately caused so much controversy because it dealt with race and had a non-white Jesus. Got her fired from a major Pepsi endorsement. Amazing video!

[@niceguy5976]

She got fired by Pepsi, but she kept the 5 million dollars!

[@marig9236]

[@asalvats]

Take a bow fue grabada en España, es una canción preciosa. Altamente recomendable.

[@todddepue681]

The thing with Madonna is you'll never really "get" her with just one song. And I promise whatever you hear next and whatever video you see next will make you say "is that the same artist?" And the same with the one after that and even the one after that! Her work is often multi layered with meaning beyond the surface. Often ironic, sometimes witty, always so damn smart. Drawing inspiration from art, film and literature and presenting it in a compelling, visually stunning way. Recommended: Express Yourself, Ray of Light, Don't Tell Me, Like A Prayer, Borderline, Live to Tell, God Control, Take a Bow, American Life

[@novalis]

Well said 👏

[@marggie4129]

I feel old when they thought those iconic stars were just fashion models.

[@Shane-Flanagan]

[@KayeWhye]

With a degree in broadcasting, I'd like to offer some audio advice. I love how excited you two get, but the volume of the playback needs to be the same as y'all's mic. I keep having to turn up/down the volume whenever y'all go from the song to speaking. It's a small thing really, but it would help folks enjoy your videos more. I offer this advice out of love, not to cast shade. I enjoy your channel, and I hope that it continues for a long, long time. Hell, if y'all reacted to just the music I know, at 3 videos a day, I could watch y'all till Luka graduates high school!

[@anthonybardarama]

It's not a small thing. The volume for the music needs to be adjusted so one can hear it without adjusting the volume ever time. The videos are great. I've loved Madonna since Everybody. It amazez me how the younger generation are not familiar with her. Lol I thought she was familiar to all. :)

[@kennmceachern4260]

The names she lists are "Old Hollywood" Icons, People who were known to be Flawless in their looks and style back in the day. Suave and Chic sums it up best

[@jamLP]

Vogue is about being yourself and not being afraid to put yourself out there. And she always had dancers of different races in her videos. She had a positive message for a lot of her songs. She doesn't get enough credit.

I’m not a huge Madonna fan by any stretch but Vogue is fire and it’s such an intelligent song too. The understanding of the fashion and beauty industries at work in the music and lyrics are top notch.

[@VicEclectica]

Watch enough Madonna and you'll see where Lady Gaga came from. Madonna's live concerts are amazing because of how physical a performer she is - if you liked the part where she was dancing, then check out some live footage. Always on the cutting edge, always pushing to claim power as a woman without the hypocrisy of guilt. Gotta love it.

[@cleverlilvixen]

I just have to recognize and give a "I'll second that!" to your comment... I just saw the video of Beyoncé at her 1st Coachella performance and (after being thoroughly impressed by her performance) my first comment when it was over was "Madonna was able to generate just as much energy and WOW in her shows with just her two back-up singers and a few dancers..." (Sorry B-Hive...)

Not disagreeing but Dam Lady Gaga has some serious talent. She is not just a mad meat hanger. She has some skills.

[@agneskurzaj]

Check out "Paris Dupree"to see the 70s and 80s newest interpretations of Voguing. Also the Harlem Ballroom Scene 1920-1935 and the Harlem LGBTQ Black and Latino history of Vogue dance battles mimicking Vogue models, and Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs. 1980s House Dance and Voguing was re energized by the Ballroom battles that Dupree put together in New York Drag scene and Madonna's song could have been influenced by the Ballroom Battles. I was fortunate in the late 80s and early 90's to watch this dynamic scene play out. The performances, and artists were in a word, FABULOUS. Canadian Grandma. Lori.C.

[@christamarch947]

The people she was listing were mostly famous actors, actresses and dancers from the 40s and 50s, except Joe DiMaggio who was a famous baseball player and married to Marilyn Monroe at one point. They are all considered icons of the 'Silver Screen'. This may be why she chose to film this in black and white as an homage to that classic movie style. Try her song 'Like a Prayer'.

[@cagnazzo82]

[@dalee72]

^ Into The Groove 😘

[@tltatt]

It's hard to pick, but my favorite Madonna song may be "Into the Groove" and my favorite Madonna video may be "Material Girl". I love how the "Material Girl" video is a call-back to Marilyn Monroe in the movie "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes"(1953) when Marilyn sings "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend". The official video for "Into the Groove" is scenes from the movie "Desperately Seeking Susan"(1985) and IMO doesn't really fit the song. YMMV.

[@gregorymoore2877]

Well... she can certainly sing and dance. Whether she can act is debatable. Never-the-less as a fan in the 80's I tried to watch all her movies: Shanghai Surprise; Desperately Seeking Susan; Who's That Girl; Dick Tracy. I thought her best acting job was in Dick Tracy. (I never saw Evita, but the song "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" from that movies pretty nice.)

[@cleverlilvixen]

@@gregorymoore2877 lol, you spoke my mind for me.... Though, I liked her Evita... She improved with each movie role she played, and (really) what more can you ask of an artist? And it's hard to find a real "triple threat" outside of Broadway since the fall of the studio system

Voguing came from the ballrooms that was shown on the tv show Pose. Jose Extravaganza is the gentleman with the facial hair in the video. He was a voguer in the ballrooms and was a member of the House of Extravaganza. He joined the house in 1986 and that style of dancing started to become mainstream in 1990. Jose is shown in the movie Paris is Burning and is shown voguing in competition. In 2012 he became the House Father for the House of Extravaganza. He also choreographed this video

I love when you guys discuss unfamiliar aspects of a song and make guesses as to what they represent. I really smile and laugh. Not at you, just with you. It really is entertaining. I find myself wanting to talk to you and give you the answers. LOL. So cute. Songs to hit that represent the different eras of Madonna's career: "Holiday", "Into The Groove", "Like a Virgin", "Crazy For You", "Open Your Heart:, "La Isla Bonita", "Papa Don't Preach", "Express Yourself", "Take a Bow", "Frozen", & "Music". Oh, and the people she mentioned in this song were fashion icons and actors from the Golden Age of cinema... Greta Garbo, Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Joe Dimaggio, Marlon Brando, James Dean, Grace Kelly, Jean Harlow, Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Rita Hayworth, Lauren Bacall, Katherine Hepburn, Lana Turner, & Bette Davis. All, except Joe DiMaggio, were actors.

"Just Like A Prayer" is her best video and a great song. The video was very controversial back in the day, but it tells a great story and it will literally take you to church.

[@SHOVELCARD]

my favorite madonna song of all time. good choice!

[@edwardnezuh7384]

I'd love to see them react to Like A Prayer. Prince plays some guitar on it, too.

[@60sbaby456]

Like a prayer video was too far, evil

[@sometimes1035]

Next Frozen by madonna!!!!

[@ganglion101]

You should really do some of her early stuff. Watching her evolution as she got more control over her music is interesting. Her early stuff is really poppy and sweet. Watching her style and sound evolve is just fun. To be honest I was more of a rocker but Madonna was everywhere, you couldn't help but see/hear her. She was/still is captivating. Like a Virgin. Pappa don't Preach. Just find something from early-mid 80's. Work your way up from there.

[@MrMADONNACOLLECTOR]

How old are you guys ... like 21-27? You mean to tell me you've NEVER seen this video before ... at all? What ROCK have you been living under!?

[@robinmeltzer9024]

A brilliant reaction! So much fun to see someone react to this for first time. Also, as someone who has loved Madonna since I was 10, in 1987, I’d say it’s best to ignore people who say that Madonna’s earliest hits are her best work - those people have failed to grasp the most extraordinary thing about her which is the sheer longevity of her career and that she has never been a legacy artist. She is constantly reinventing herself and every single era of her 40 year career rewards exploration. Her most recent tour finished in early 2020, literally just before the pandemic, and was one of the most commercially successful tours of the year, by which time she was in her 60s. She’s a phenomenon.

[@markstukel7477]

Try golthika buy WASP!!! That one you will realy appreciate. it will not disappoint you.

[@bakilacat1]

Ray of Light is a later one by Madonna that’s pretty cool.

[@kelstwin3176]

YES! I love Ray of Light!

[@annother3350]

Yes. I was playing Beautiful Stranger the other day too - sounds great!

[@sewdesire]

I really love the song Zephyr (I hope that I got the name of this song right) from the Ray of Light album/cd.

[@bakilacat1]

@@sewdesire that whole album is good. I named my Ford Escape zephyr.

[@bufordt.justice6741]

Nice but why don't you guys do some Kylie Minogue???? She's the Princess of Pop and now the Queen as Madonna is past her prime but Kylie is killing it to the max with Tension and Padam Padam off her new album Tension. Check her out and try All the Lovers, The One, Get Outta My Way, and Love at first sight. Kylie is AWESOME!

[@calisasilvertail]

A Madonna song similar to this, but hits harder is "Express Yourself." For a storytelling song, I'd go for "Papa Don't Preach." For controversial, "Like a Prayer." For funkadelic vibes, "Music." For heavy emotions, "Live to Tell." For something that your daughters might like, "Dear Jessie."

[@mattjohnson9054]

LOVE Dear Jessie!!

[@jacquelinemoody1643]

Y'all should watch Marilyn Monroe perform Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend from Gentleman Prefer Blondes. Then watch Madonna's video Material Girl.

[@DaedBoi]

Alanis Morissette - Uninvited. The live version with the full orchestra will change your life!

[@mrrandywatson925]

U gotta do "Papa don't Preach" Madonna. Great song💯

[@BlackCatAlley888]

Want something a little faster paced- try Madonna songs Ray of Light, Hung Up, Hollywood, American Life, Erotica, Secret, Justify my love, Frozen is a trippy video, or journey through old 80’s Madonna- In to the groove, Causing a commotion, Sidewalk Talk, Dress you up, Crazy for you, Like a Virgin, Like a prayer, really you can’t go wrong with Madonna, and if you start your movie KZbin channel definitely put some movies on your list with Madonna in them like, Desperately seeking Susan, Who’s That Girl, A League of Their Own , Four Rooms and of course the one she won awards for Evita

[@John_Chu]

Madonna’s earliest hits are her best work: Burning Up, Lucky Star, Holiday, Borderline, Material Girl, Like A Virgin, etc. Funky, smooth, danceable, lots of fun.

[@robindavisduckworth8992]

Ya, i like this song least

[@discoduck2288]

Don’t forget “Everybody!”

[@StevenLAllen]

Great stuff...Want horns...Blood Sweet and Tears...lots of horns in all

[@joiedevivre2005]

One of my favorite Madonna songs is one of her lesser known songs, "Love Don't Live Here Anymore". I felt it truly showcased her vocals.

[@claudeghanimeh1728]

I like your honest and natural REACTION🥂

[@sallysharp3845]

Madonna is the forerunner of today's female artists. They have basically modeled themselves after her. Frankly she was 40 years ahead of her time.

[@tranquilityseeker581]

Voguing came out of the Gay Balls in Harlem. (Paris Is Burning film) Madonna took what they did and made it her own. One of the original Vogue dancers is in the video! Enjoy!

[@theidajawho]

"Material Girl" and "Like A Virgin" were the two that put her on the map start Rob there. If you begin at an artist beginning then the growth they is much more evident and enjoyable. START WHERE THEY STARTED! Easy Right! If you do that with EVERY artist then the order of their catalog will make more sense as well. It is a Win, Win, Win, Win, right. TY for reaction guys!

[@ADayInPR]

Why can't most people just make it this simple? But, I wouldn't say that for all artists.

[@theidajawho]

@@ADayInPR it was how we came to know the artist. Their big hit first, that would snag us. Even though some bands their first album is not the best it was the song that broke on the radio or MTV that started it.... ie. White Zombie

[@breebree9319]

Very true

[@robertshepherd7855]

You ain’t never heard a Madonna song?????????? 😢😳 Chile!

[@arten]

I don't know if someone else has already said this, but the list of people in the song are all classic movie stars known for their beauty (male or female) and grace. Many were stars of musical movies and thus famous for their ability to dance and look amazing.

[@miriamswellspring]

OK so voguing started in the 1920's-1930's by black and latino queer folks during the harlem renaissance. In the 70's and 80's vogue competitions/battles happened at drag balls. It is definitely a LGBTQ POC dance that Madonna brought to the mainstream with this song. That's why you see mainly gay black men dancing in the video. Madonna has been a huge icon for the queer community.

[@moanman1776]

Iconic. Stylish. Seismic. Artistic AF. So she did not invent Vogueing. She certainly brought it into the general public & America's living rooms. So props on that, "Maddy." Arguably, this is one of Madonna's very best videos.

[@sheryljoel5052]

Got a suggestion for an Iconic 80's song - band is Tommy Tutone, and the song is "867-5309/Jenny"

[@marikka9347]

Some Madonna you should both like: Don't Tell Me Beautiful Stranger The Power of Goodbye Into the Groove Material Girl (channeling Marilyn Monroe)

[@michaelasay6140]

Good taste

[@jair8804]

Madonna is the greatest artist the world has ever known. Long live the Queen! Like a Prayer, Hung up, La isla Bonita, Borderline, Ray of Light, Frozen, Music, God control, Express Yourself, Into the Groove, Material Girl, The Power of Goodbye, Take a Bow, Justify my Love, Erotica are all of them a must see.

[@kevincaulder9001]

Madonna has always channeled her inner Marilyn Monroe. Her video for MATERIAL GIRL does just that. The hands framed around her face are meant to act as a frame for the pose she is issuing or the image you would see on the cover of a magazine i.e. Vogue. Madonna has always been a fashion influencer and incorporated it in many videos. Her original look from '83 for the song LUCKY STAR was popular with youth girls and some boys for 2 years. Even though she had abandoned the look a year earlier. But you must watch her performance at the 1984 MTV awards as she writes andenrages parents at the time with her wedding dress in LIKE A VIRGIN. Her big money fabulous life skills are on display even as she was pregnant for the dance song, MUSIC.

[@janleonard3101]

Yes! The video for "Material Girl" was inspired by Marilyn's performance of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" from the 1953 film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.

[@jamesmccarthy2655]

How about trying Kylie Minogue?? As big as Madonna almost everywhere else on the world other than the USA!

[@walterpanovs]

This award-winning video was directed by David Fincher shortly before he became hugely successful with his film work (Seven, Fight Club, The Social Network, etc.).

[@cmfdrama2]

For a softer side of Madonna, I think you would like This Used To Be My Playground from the movie A League Of Their Own.

[@leannefinnigan209]

This song is about the drag queen world if you listen to the first verse. You should watch the show pose. This song is all about that world they battled on the dance floor like in this video

[@valogden]

The show was so good. I'm a big fan of Billy Porter's and he was incredible in it.

[@sarahholland2600]

Kind of astonished he wasn't that sure who Marilyn Monroe was! Madonna's look at the time she recorded Vogue referenced Marilyn. I remember she also did a photoshoot in a costume from one of Marilyn's films with her Monroe look. Madonna's 'Material Girl' is a homage to Marilyn's song 'Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend'. The pink dress she wears in the video is an almost exact copy of Marilyn's costume.

[@kkeenan536]

People she named were all famous mostly actors, actresses. She was/is a great dancer as well as her singing

[@bobmathis-friedman6742]

The namnes that Madonna rattled off are iconic actors, fashiponistas, musicians and sports figure from the Golden Age of Stage and Screen; look them all up on KZbin!

[@CGPOPPOOP]

Madonna is the best selling female artist of all time for a reason. What I love about her is that each album sounds like a completely different artist and she is so completely diverse. Like a Prayer is probably everyone's favorite track from her, which is from the late 80s, but for me anything from her 1998 Ray of Light album is golden. She was always known for her creative videos and intricate world tours that were like theater productions that always broke attendance records.

[@kelstwin3176]

AGREED!

[@scottwoodard2736]

Check out the Ballroom culture of Harlem where vouging started. It was like a duel or contest to see who was the fiercest queen.

[@leslapins7617]

Every Madonna song is completely diifferent of the other. An different artist in each song. Mainly people named by her were cinema icons.

[@meredithchandler73]

All but Joe DiMaggio.

[@ashleyholmes9876]

My favorite song of Madonna is This Used To Be My Playground.

[@kcw]

Madonna is one of the best (and often controversial) entertains of our era.

[@mnmmnm8321]

Vogue is, like like like like THE BEST

[@zortil]

I'm old enough to remember seeing Madonna on American Bandstand in 1984. A few years later, I went to her Vogue tour in Houston, and it was amazing! You should also try these Madonna songs: Into the Groove, Papa Don't Preach, Burning Up, Material Girl.

[@marsbearmcw3050]

I can’t fathom a person living in this solar system that hasn’t heard or know this song.

[@rodb9275]

I like most of Madonna's 80's stuff. Maybe a little of the early 90's stuff. I'm not sure what my fav song is. This is definitely top 3. I can't say I'm a big fan of her today. She is kind of ... eh, I won't go there. lol. Great reaction. You should do more of her stuff. Papa Don't Preach is a favorite of mine too. In To The Groove is another. ("You can dance.... for inspiration... come on come on... I'm waiiiiiting...) lol

[@juliannatemple-roberts4012]

Erotica & Justify My Love - check em out!!

[@giarogers]

❤🎵 NOT a Madonna fan - but relevant for the time. This is one of the better songs - Also, I did like the song " Material Girl" -- you got it Jordan - Strike the pose !! 😎😊
