If I have to have a favourite Madonna song well I guess this is the one. I just love the start really just before she says "And you can dance" or something like that. Wasn't a big fan of Madonna in the Eighties but I think she made some great singles. I was playing in bands and DJing in sixties night clubs but now and again I'd get out to dance clubs and hear some different stuff. The mid eighties there was night clubs open every night. Monday night I'd be at the Underground. Tuesday some basement in the city. Wednesday Chasers. Thursday I'd DJ at a ska place. Friday Rubber Soul. Saturday Beehive. I didn't get to see many bands other than when I played myself.
A lot of girls dressed up a s Madonna. It was a nice change after a bunch of girls dressing up as Boy George. It was all a bit glamorous in the eighties. I think I even wore silver jacket a few times.
I even got to see Madonna live. At the MCG. Sitting on seats that slowly sank into the hallowed turf of football's home. And that's all U remember about it. I liked the records a lot more. Actually maybe "Like A Prayer" is my favourite Madonna song. Wait I think it's actually Material Girl. She had some great singles. This one went number one in Australia and in the US it was a b-side of one of her singles that failed to chart. And that's why I love the world of Pop.
