This is a hard one. She's had too many good songs! "The Immaculate Collection, Madonna's first greatest-hits compilation album, was released in November 1990. The album was certified diamond by RIAA and sold over 30 million copies worldwide, becoming the best-selling compilation album by a solo artist in history."
"Like a Prayer" had multiple plays on my CD Walkman. I guess you can throw "Who's That Girl" and "La Isla Bonita" into the mix, too.

I'm not a big fan of Madonna, but I like "Borderline" a lot, and I think "Die Another Day" got a bad rap.

This one's easy. "Like A Surgeon".
...I was disappointed that she didn't play her accordion after she removed it from patient #27. Missed opportunities. *sigh*

Like a Virgin is definitely my favorite. Oh, and thanks for the rarely-scene Weird Al music video reference! I heard Madonna's 2012 album MDNA, which has that "Give Me All Your Lovin'" song on it, and I like it almost as much as her old stuff, but not quite.

Her eerie cover of "American Pie" is alright, too.

Not sure if loving Madonna or hating "Die Another Day".

Weird! I was going to start a Madonna thread! Good call!
Live to Tell is my favorite song. I just love the melody.
Material Girl is a great song. It's my favorite one to cover especially when covered by my friend King.

Probably the latter. People seem to love hating that song. I thought it was a pretty good stab at updating the James Bond Theme tropes.
Also, later in the day, I remembered that "Like a Prayer" was Madonna, so that's gotta supplant my prior choice.

I know I said "Like a Virgin" is my favorite, but I forgot how ambiently soothing "Live to Tell" is!

When I saw this thread title, "Like A Prayer" immediately got stuck in my head. That isn't to say that it's my favorite of her songs, because I can't stand it, but it certainly is what my brain finds the most memorable.
I guess I haven't really listened to much Madonna beyond what got overplayed on the radio in the late 80s/early 90s though.

I wasn't aware that Madonna had, like, actual songs. I though she just played a "repertoire".

Erotica. Only not while watching the decidedly unsexy video.

This morning, I was thinking about this series of DRCs and going over some of the choices i had made. When I got up to Madonna on the list, I instinctively said "Human Nature" then realized I had said "Oh Father". As much as I love the latter, my answer really should have been the former. I don't know why I had completely forgotten it that day but today, I remembered it like a reflex.
