chairdriver Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 As much as I love RPG music (The FFVII soundtrack will always have a place in my heart), you cannot beat this performance of Future Lovers. I just love how it builds up to the I Feel Love bit. You can imagine her being an anti-hero in an RPG screaming "I'm so unbelievably ready to fight you in a battle to the death!!" Madonna, for her 7 minutes of loveliness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoDesiato Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 The Chrono Trigger theme was surprisingly good. The Madonna song dragged on too long and got boring fast. I'm also not into her weird horse-SM fetish. So Yasunori Mitsuda gets my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paj! Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 I love Future Lovers as a song, it's akin to having sex with a synthesizer. But with the I Feel Love euphoria, it's a multiple orgasm. Madonna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I'm voting for Yasunori Mitsuda, because I absolutely fucking despise Madonna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 I'm voting for Yasunori Mitsuda, because I absolutely fucking despise Madonna. It's song vs. song. The point is NOT to bring biases into it, when voting. If you've done that, and your vote is still that, that's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've done that, and your vote is still that, that's fine. That doesn't matter. One of the reasons why I abhor Madonna is because her music is cack, which that song happens to be. Hence my vote.

Dyson Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 I'm voting for Chrono Trigger, I do love it when that theme kicks in in the game. Got a good vibe to it too. Amazing what you can do with MIDI compared to overproduced Madonna rubbish, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roostophe Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Some of her music is 'undeniably good', you say? Well, now THIS should be interesting. Please, enlighten us of this shocking revelation. Which of Madonna's tracks are in the "undeniably good" category? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chairdriver Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Well, my favourite album of Madonna's is American Life (no one else seems to like it though), and this is my favourite song: Isaac - Madonna I'm not that big a Madonna fan though.

Paj! Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 I generally prefer her 90's stuff, with a more hip/trip-hoppy sound to it. However, she has made some of the greatest classic (non-cheesy) pop songs of the last century too. Here's a few...don't have to listen to them all.

Slaggis Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Frozen, Human Nature and Die Another Day are rather awesome. I really have a soft spot for Die Another Day, I think it's fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you tell me you first head Human Nature because of Britney's appearance on stage during it, I'll hit you.

(in a friendly, yet still really disapproving way) Haha, I've not actually seen that performance. I have the album it's on and I thought it was alright - but seeing the video for the first time it's turned the song into something else. Rather like "Single Ladies", if you see what I mean.

Bedtime Stories is excellent, definitely Madonna's most underrated album. While Human Nature is good on it's own, it needs to be understood that it was her talking back to the media, who had fucked her around during her last album (Erotica, ironically only featuring 2 sexual songs), and the Sex book. The fact that the response song's video is what it is just sums her up for me! Sticking to her guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zell Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Chrono Trigger. It's amazing how much you can do with MIDI, this is probably one of the best examples. Madonna was actually a pleasant surprise, though not up to CT's brilliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
