nobody even plays it on the radio

First you discuss 100 million streams.

 

Then you mention it being played on the radio.

 

Which is it?

 

And for your information, Vogue does get recurrent play on the radio.

 

Are you joking?

It shows me 320m have you added remixes, other versions?

Other versions?

 

You do know other artists literally combine all versions of their songs on Spotify, right?

 

Why is Madonna getting called out?

Madonna's streams are scattered across different albums. The numbers I posted are genuine numbers. Shooketh a bit perhaps? :bird:

Wait, when did Madonna’s streams increase so much? Better playlisting I guess?

 

They used to be tragic but this is more fitting for the Queen of Pop :clap3:

In 2023 it's not a classic. Poll people and see how many people can name it as a Madonna song.

People don't suffer from amnesia. For those people for whom it was a classic, it remains a classic. Of course if you're gonna ask random people on the street, more people would name Gaga songs because they were released within the most recent generation. 

 

your poll didn't prove your point either

:rip: This isn’t a serious question right?

Still sh!tty playlisting overall tbh lol

 

Also, those were just a few from the first 15 years of her career since that's the topic of this thread :bird:

 

3/3 update 

 

Hung Up - 326,311,786 (+300,375)

4 Minutes - 253,813,157 (+275,812)

This is subjective, but the songs that I feel have had a certain level of continued cultural impact within that time period would be the following (fully understanding that this is an unfair battle for GaGa, whose most recent output has yet to be tested by time):

 

Lucky Star

Holiday

Like a Virgin

Material Girl

Into the Groove

Dress You Up

Papa Don't Preach

La Isla Bonita

Like a Prayer

Express Yourself

Vogue

Take a Bow

Don't Cry for Me Argentina

 

Just Dance

Paparazzi

Poker Face

Bad Romance

Born This Way

Telephone

The Edge of Glory

Bloody Mary

Shallow

Rain on Me

 

Honestly, for a thread designed to diss GaGa, she definitely held her own.

Some of y’all really can’t read. FIRST 15 YEARS…

 

anyway:


Holiday

Like A Virgin

Material Girl

Crazy For You (?)

Into The Groove

Papa Don’t Preach

Open Your Heart

La Isla Bonita

Like A Prayer 

Express Yourself

Vogue

 

v

 

Just Dance

Pokerface

Lovegame (?)

Paparazzi

Bad Romance

Telephone

Alejandro

Born This Way

Shallow

Rain on Me 

 

 

So Madge wins by 1 

I don’t know any Madonna songs other than like 3-4 (GP teas). Gaga has gay classics BTW/ROM then universal smash classic shallow like this may have set M up.

You don't speak for the GP. It's time you burst that bubble you've been living in for the last 15 years and go and educate yourself on pop culture and the meaning of real classics prior to 2008.

 

The answer is Madonna and always will be. Sorry liddos.
