Graves Posted January 24 Posted January 24 The intro to Papa SLAYS my soul every time it comes on. Not Madge insisting on a string accompaniment every time this song plays on the radio, I- 1
Quicksand Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Papa Don't Preach SCREAMS lead single so it's always shocking to me how it was the second single from True Blue
PokiTails Posted January 24 Posted January 24 "Madonna bribed Billboard with microwaves in the 80s" vibes due to the lack of comments lol 1
Ewan Chaos Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Erm I know Better the Devil You Know is still in (deserves to win highkey) but I legit can't even think of what its competitor is

Live To Tell was more like a movie song that got upgraded to album tracklist iirc. Both slays tho. The other girls wish. 1
Quicksand Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Genuinely thought you all were joking when you said Janet didn't make top 10 cause I thought there was no way. But you guys were serious 1 1

PokiTails Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Oh okay I see the edit now hehe. Quote poki: "what's-her-face hates this track apparently so I can see why Cher is always mad at her" I forgot I wrote this LMAO 2
blown away Posted January 24 Posted January 24 I'm team Whitney for the win. I'm Your Baby Tonight is THAT song, both the US version and the European version. Better The Devil You Know is still an A-class song as well. Pop brilliance.

But you guys were serious It was her chance to sweep To me I had no doubt it was the best album of the bunch. 2
Graves Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Looks like I'm fatal, it's all on the table And baby you hold the cards You got the magic and I gotta have it I don't want the pieces, I want every. single. part. I'll be your angel, I'm ready and able Whatever you want is fine~ Whenever you're ready, just call on your lady I'll BE YOUR BABY TONIGHT 3 1
Saddy Posted January 24 Author Posted January 24 #2 Better the Devil You Know Score: 9.17 High score: 11 @Mariya Takeuchi@GraceRandolph@Ewan Chaos@KillingYourCareer@Quicksand@jacklovesyou1@madonnas Low score: 1 @sparrowblue Comments: Ewan Chaos: "One of her best songs, and gave us a fun meme moment with those old ******* watching her perform this with the angriest faces ever" blown away: "Pop perfection. The chorus is pure heaven." poki: "This album has no ballads because Celine stole all of them and left Kylie with all the oontz oontz stuff but joke's on her because this album slaps" Madonnas: "Realistically speaking, this is in the top 5 songs ever, its probably still the best thing Kylie has ever done" #1 I'm Your Baby Tonight Score: 9.23 High score: 11 @ChooseyLover@Soda Pop Queen@Quicksand@jacklovesyou1 Low score: 6.5 @creativity. Comments: allforyou: "The american version is the best one." Ewan Chaos: "Banger." blown away: "Love this one. The sass and the delivery make this song, along with the bouncy production. One of Whitney's best songs. A shout out to the Yvonne Turner remix as well, that one is almost as good as the album version." poki: "Oh yeah I heard this before. Very memorable chorus." confide in me: "The Yvonne Turner mix >>" GreatestLoveofAll: "she was following where pop music was going and excelled at it effortlessly like only she could" 1 2
blown away Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Both immaculate songs and a very worthy winner. Thank you @Saddyfor hosting. Thank you guys for the entertainment, despite my fumes about the Janet slander I had a lot of fun 2 1
Saddy Posted January 24 Author Posted January 24 That's all, thanks everyone for participating. it was fun tbh I think that for now we need a little break from the diva rate BUT the next rate I'm gonna host (approved my Ace) it's Britney discography, so if you want to participate in this one too, let me know and I'll tag you when I'm gonna open the thread. 4 1
ChooseyLover Posted January 24 Posted January 24 The Top 5 was super refreshing tbh. Maybe we didn't do quite a bad job, Janet sabotage aside 1

Quicksand Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Was rooting for Kylie but I can't even be mad cause I gave Whitney an 11 too Whitney also kinda deserves the win for the fact that she laid down the vocals for this song quickly so that she could go to the mall before it closed 1 3

Graves Posted January 24 Posted January 24 Rhythm Nation 1814 and Like A Prayer definitely need to be rated together sometime tho. Maybe with different competition. Some other divas. What was Prince doing around that time?
