Like a Prayer #2 🫶🏻

The praise for Rosanne Cash's "Seven Year Ache" was nice to see. That song is magnificent.

The Message at #3 was  the most interesting and maybe the best in the top 10. alot of songs were missing and for some artists the wrong songs were listed.

No George Michael in the top 10, so I shan’t be looking further. 
 

Glad they put Whitney’s best song as her highest entry, though.

They recently claimed Bambi is the best Disney movie ever. Their lists are awful.

Kiss is a genius track and it's good to see it at number one. The fact that there are multiple Prince songs that could replace it is testament to his insane run of top quality singles/albums throughout the 80s!

 

Also amazing to see Like A Prayer at number 2! :heart:

Kiss is a flawless choice yeah! One of 80s best input :clap3:

 

I wish Madonna has several placements,it better be! I still didnt check the whole list

tbh I’ve never loved Down Under quite as much as Who Can It be Now? but I understand why ppl do! the lyrics stomp

 

personally I just prefer that euphoria at the end of WCIBN with that buildup with his vocals WHEW that’s some pop perfection right there :heart2::jonny5: I think that’s the kind of feeling that draws me to at least ten seconds in particular in all of the songs I’ve chosen
