The Playlist: Madonna's Forgotten Singles

madonna

Madonna’s spent most of 2014 teasing new tunes and posting plenty of selfies. Her 56th birthday rolls around this month and while Her Madgesty is busy with social media, and a forthcoming album that looks like it’s going to be super-orchestral, we’re celebrating some of the sometimes forgotten singles from her enormous cannon. Stream them below!

 

1. Everybody

Her firstever single is still a disco-stomper.

2. Burning Up Bratty

’80s pop magic from her debut album.

3. Cherish

A rare ray of sunshine from the darker ‘Like A Prayer’ era.

4. Rescue Me

Camp, anthemic and utterly Madonna.

5. Deeper and Deeper

‘Vogue’s’ older, sexier sister and just as much fun.

6. Human Nature

R’n’B-tinged kiss-off to the haters, the best song from 1994’s Bedtime Stories.

7. The Power of Goodbye

One of her best ballads ever, it was released as a double A-side with ‘Little Star’, from the Ray of Light album.

8. Love Profusion

Electro-folk gem from 2003’s American Life that’s frequently forgotten.

9. Miles Away

Melancholic but hooky Hard Candy cut.

10. Turn Up The Radio

A breezy bright spot on the otherwise mishandled MDNA.
