The American Pie cover being ranked higher than Erotica is nasty work.

It was a huge hit in Europe and still weirdly remembered.

I'm surprised Take A Bow is nowhere to be found.

Isn’t t that the song that ended her UK top 10 streak? Meanwhile it was one of her biggest hits in a while in the US 💀

When the celebration tour was announced, every channel in the uk done a piece about it in their news shows, and the most recently released track on all five stations was Vogue.

Yes - it looks like it did end the streak. None of the singles from Bedtime Stories made this list. 💀

This ain't the USA. She had 21 Top 10 hits in the UK during the 80's and then 24 top 10 hits during the 90's in an even more competitive market than the 80's...and even 15 top 10 hits during the 00's...you'd think specially her 90's material wouldn't be this forgotten. The fact she has always paid dust to those tracks on tour and stuff like that hurt her tbh.
