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.
