I will say, though, this is one of my favorite songs:



I still love plenty of Madonna stuff though; Like a Prayer, especially.
damn Beard, gracias senior, I had forgotten how great that song was. she had her own unique deal going on, "you could see I was no debutante" So Joplinesque of her.

I always loved female vocalists who didn't rely on fashion model looks like Joplin, Bonnie Raitt, and that overweight daughter / mother country duo whom name escapes for the moment. but actually, I think Blondie is pretty hot. Women in the music bidness that are talented solely on their music skills has always been a turn on for me.

the thing I like a lot about Madonna is that she had that Colonel Parker aspect of being a good looking white person who could sing with the "black" voice. many of her songs leaves the listener questioning if the vocalist is black or white. Elvis Presley had it big time and he's one of my all time favorites. that's why the Colonel latched on to him.
