Re: "The Official" Madonna Thread
Great writeup Jen! I was going to respond at the time it was made but I spaced it!
I actually like later Madonna to and "Ray Of Light" is my favorite Madonna album. After that she wasn't bad but I think that's the album where she peaked and went down after that! 
Madonna! My all time favorite solo performer. She is the very earliest musical memory for me. Mom says I used to rock back and forth in my crib when I was a baby to songs like Lucky Star and True Blue.
What, no mention of her FABULOUS 90's work?My favorite Madonna is 90's Madonna. Like I stated before, Vogue was my earliest clear musical memory along with Express Yourself.
Anyone remember the live performance of Vogue at the VMA's? Always stuck in my mind and I was so in awe and flabbergasted when I saw it. She was so fabulous, still is!
She is the epitome of creativity and reinvention, in my opinion, and she's made a career off of developing her look and sound and transforming herself album to album, single to single. She's also a pop icon in every sense of the word, the female counterpart to Michael Jackson.
My all time favorite Madonna album is definitely Ray of Light. It was a completely different sound/era for her, with trance/electronica infusions and a little but of eastern influences (sort of reminds me of a pop version of Kashmir, with the international elements).
Favorite from the album:
My post is becoming too long so I will stop there, but I could go on forever. She is my female Led Zeppelin.
