Top 10 singlova svih vremena

Obožavatelji su mogli glasati na web stranici medijskog portala Digital Spy za svoju najdražu Madonninu pjesmu. Glasanje je završeno i kreirana je top 10 lista! Sami vrh liste je zauzeo klasik 'Like A Prayer', a slijede ga 'Vogue', 'Hung Up' te ostali veliki hitovi.

10. 4 Minutes
Album: Hard Candy (2008)
UK chart: #1 US chart: #3
Produced by R&B super-producer Timbaland and featuring vocals from Justin Timberlake, this hard-edged urban pop song became Madonna's 13th UK No.1 in April, placing her fifth on the all-time list. It's not one of her most melodic moments, but the urgent, horn-driven '4 Minutes' grows in stature with every spin.


9. Crazy For You
Album: Vision Quest OST (1985)
UK chart: #2 US chart: #1
Taken from the soundtrack to long forgotten eighties flick Vision Quest, 'Crazy For You' is the only real ballad in our top ten. "I never wanted anyone like this," Madonna swoons on the chorus, proving that when she isn't trying to shock or draw attention to herself, she's actually capable of being a bit of a softie

8. Like A Virgin
Album: Like A Virgin (1984)
UK chart: #3 US chart: #1
She didn't write it, but 'Like A Virgin' suited Madonna to a tee, its playful, suggestive lyrics giving her plenty of scope for grabbing headlines. That she did with some style, writhing around onstage in a wedding dress while singing it at the MTV Awards in 1984. And we all know what happened when she homaged that performance with Britney and Christina in tow nearly 20 years later.


7. Papa Don't Preach
Album: True Blue (1986)
UK chart: #1 US chart: #1
An early example of Madonna's willingness to tackle taboo subjects, 'Papa Don't Preach' tells the story of a teenage girl who gets pregnant by her high school lover and vows that she's "keeping my baby". The lyrical content isn't quite so controversial today, but 'Papa Don't Preach' still sounds urgent and full of drama - just as long as you block out Kelly Osbourne while you listen.


6. Into The Groove
Album: Like A Virgin (European reissue) (1985)
UK chart: #1 US chart: #5
This dance-pop classic, featured in her hit film Desperately Seeking Susan, became Madonna's first UK No.1 in August 1985. Its drum sounds may seem a bit weedy in the cold light of 2008, but 'Into The Groove' is so joyous and so convinced of music's ability to "set you free" that it still makes for a terrific listen today.


5. Ray Of Light
Album: Ray Of Light (1998)
UK chart: #2 US chart: #5
Based on 'Sepheryn', an obscure track by 70s duo Curtiss Maldoon, this techno-pop floor-filler is one of Madonna's most energetic, thrilling singles. Memorably performed by the pop queen at the Live 8 and Live Earth concerts, and given a rock makeover for her Confessions Tour in 2006, 'Ray Of Light' has earned its stripes as a latter-day Madonna classic.


4. Frozen
Album: Ray Of Light (1998)
UK chart: #1 US chart: #2
After her Golden Globe-winning turn in Evita, Madonna returned to the cutting edge with this gorgeous, haunting electronic pop song. Combined with a memorable video in which La Ciccone turned into a flight of crows and a Doberman, 'Frozen' proved unstoppable, giving Madonna her first UK No.1 since 'Vogue' eight years earlier.


3. Hung Up
Album: Confessions On A Dancefloor (2005)
UK chart: #1 US chart: #7
Madonna wrote personally to Abba's Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson to clear the sample from 'Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight)' that underpins 'Hung Up', her biggest hit of this decade. An irresistible combination of pop exuberance and disco drama, it reached No.1 in a whopping 45 countries.


2. Vogue
Album: I'm Breathless (1990)
UK chart: #1 US chart: #1
Inspired by a New York dance craze in which clubbers would strike a series of angular, model-like poses, 'Vogue' was originally conceived as a B-side. Realising she had a hit on her hands, Madonna quickly added it to the Dick Tracy soundtrack album and it went on to reach No.1 on both sides of the Atlantic. Probably the definitive example of her ability to bring underground trends into the mainstream
.

1. Like A Prayer
Album: Like A Prayer (1989)
UK chart: #1 US chart: #1
'Like A Prayer' is the quintessential Madonna single because it blends the three fundamentals on which she's built her career: an unforgettable chorus, a generous helping of controversy and oodles of ambition - well, who else would try to do something like this? The lyrics could be about sexual love, religious love or both, an ambiguity that the video capitalised on to Pope-baiting effect.
