Last one of these chart related ones, there might be one more to do. I was reticent to go beyond Top 40 but this section needed padding out a bit more because she was generally so darned successful that the other 4 Top 10 related categories were overloaded with choice. I’ll allow up to FOUR choices in this one. It was going to be 3 but I think there look to be 3 potential runaway ones here.
 
Is there scope for some kind of knockout or poll with the winners of each of the rounds?
 
Medellin, Masterpiece, Miles Away and Take a Bow for me.

Oh Father and Living for Love just missing out
 
Tough because Oh Father is an absolute 10 but was a TERRIBLE single choice, both at the time in the US and especially in the UK Something to Remember release.
 
I forgot all about 'Vulgar' - just horrible and awful.
 
I really love Oh Father now but wasn’t overly fussed back in the day and it being a single for STR was indeed ODD.
 
I couldn't hum 'One More Chance' - flop Madge fan

She was making Evita and pregnant at the time, of course, so they wanted something to keep momentum going and it had a video ready, from 1989, so I see the point, but it was a terrible choice and the package itself was rubbish. They threw out One More Chance without a video too and then finally she made a (cheap and one shot) video for Love Don’t Live Here Anymore when they decided on that as the US follow up to You’ll See.
 
Hmmm…One More Chance I’ve always felt is one of my least favourite singles she’s done. Not bad AS SUCH but there were so many other artists doing stuff of that ilk so much better.
 
“I planned it out so perfectly
So you’d never leave a girl like me”

:(
 
One More Chance is DESPERATELY BORING.

At least when she was shit in the 00s it was just SHIT.
 
I chose Lucky Star (I wish she’d opened the Celebration Tour with at least the intro), Oh Father, Love Profusion and Masterpiece. Living For Love was probably NEXT IN.
 
Part of me wants to throw Medellin a vote, but part of me also strongly suspects that I'd be grading it on quite a generous curve compared to the pre-Hard Candy stuff.
 
I'll never dislike One More Chance as although it is generic, she at least sounds really good on it.
 
One More Chance is up and running. Just Give Me All Your Luvin’ and Vulgar to go.

Oh Father is probably the only one there that is great for, albeit not a great single. But pretty poor selection overall.
 
I can still remember being in work back in the day and One More Chance was playing on the radio, and my cunty office manager at the time said “god, isn’t that a miserable song, that’s dreadful…” It made me hate her more, but sadly it didn’t make me love the song any more, I’ve always thought it was a bit of a DIRGE.
 
HANG ON, did Turn Up the Radio not make the top 100?
 
I'm Addicted should have led the mdna campaign followed by girl gone wild. If in need of a third single I suppose bonus track beautiful killer was right there. Give me all your lovin pretty much ended her chart career as a contemporary pop star

A shame Ghosttown only reached #117 (thanks streaming) as I’d have fired it a vote but there had to be some sort of numerical standards in place.
