Bad Girl

[Cerro de Casa]

Well I'm playing it right now and it's just so good.

Ugh.

The harmonies

The piano

The jazziness

The unexpected pause in the video version

The vocal modulations toward the final few choruses

The guilt-ridden lyrics

We've all been there love

*rinses underwear under the tap*

And yes it remains her best single cover ever.

 

[POP!]

Love everything about it, and the SNL perf:

 

[Loufoque]

I'm not happy when I act this way

... is a lyric that I just think sums up the gay experience. QUEEN.

That being said I relate to it less than I used to now that I have done years of therapy and these days I am firmly in my Ray of Light enlightened goddess era. Catch you in 10 years for the unfortunate late-40s

 

[RJN]

9 for the song (great but there's better on Erotica)

11 for that single cover

 

[Cerro de Casa]

That being said I relate to it less than I used to now that I have done years of therapy and these days I am firmly in my Ray of Light enlightened goddess era. Catch you in 10 years for the unfortunate late-40s

I'm definitely in my American Life era.

DO I HAVE to CHANGE my NAME
Would it GET ME FAR
SHOULD I lose some WEIGHT
AM
I
Gonna be
A STAR?

In fact I think we need a 'Which Madonna era are you in right now?' thread

 

[straightorbroken]

When Madonna's lows conjured nothing but immense highs.

 

[RS]

Everything about this is perfection; including the single cover.

 

[funky]

Probably my least favourite (excl. Evita) single of the 90s

And yet it’s still great

 

[Sheena]

10/10 but the beginning of the downturn…

 

[Devil]

Magnificent
