Which melancholic synth ballad of the early 90s do you prefer?

Edited June 5, 20251 yr by Taylor fanboy

Had to go with Janet... sorry Madge, Janet's self-titled era is legendary. More so than the Bedtimes Stories.

Take A Bow

TAKE A BOW 

Take a Bow (Rihanna)

Take a Bow wins this one but 

 

Janet. > Bedtime Stories easy

Rihanna's Take A Bow tbh. 

I think Again is so boring and I say that as a hardcore Janet stan.

 

I have to be in the mood for Take A Bow but it's a pretty song.

I love Babyface's songwriting so I can't help but leaning towards Take a Bow. Both are my favourite albums from them though so it's difficult.

Take a Bow. Again is overrated. I prefer Every Time. 

Madonna for this one 

going with Again though Take A Bow was one of Madonna's best 90's songs. 

Sorry miss Janet, but Take A Bow devours. A 90's Babyface production can rarely be topped for me.

Madonna takes this

Take A Bow ofc

Take a Bow is gorgeous

not even in the same league as the other 2

Take a Bow

Rihanna

Madonna's take a bow is a classic. Babyface did not play when he helped her with it.

That song sounds like every slow R6B track from 2007 / 2008. It's not even on the same level as the other 2 lmao.

Take a Bow is so lush.

TAB

I thought this was Rihanna.

 

voting for Madge tho
