3. "Oh, Father" (Like A Prayer)
4. "Nothing Fails" (American Life)
5. "Into The Groove" (You Can Dance)
Top 11 Song Intros
1. Vogue - "What You Lookin' At?" + those classic finger snaps
2. Borderline - Pure innocent pop intro. Intro's the great beat and then kicks up it's heels
3. Into The Groove - "You Can Dance. For Inspiration" Has their ever been a greater opening lyric?
4. Live To Tell/Crazy For You - Those classic synth intros are irresistable
5. Ray of Light - From 2 to 11 in a microsecond. Up loud it just blasts outta the speakers
6. Papa Don't Preach - Those strings make a perfectly melodramatic entry to a perfectly melodramatic song!
7. Like A Prayer - "God?" She practically screams "Are you interested yet?"
8. I'll Remember - One of my favourite tunes of a Maddy song, starts brilliant and doesn't stop
9. Hung Up - "Time Goes By. So Slowly", That beat getting ever louder and then BOOM
10. Frozen - Strings again, and again, perfectly sets up the song
11. Sorry - "Sorry" in multiple languages with that increasing beat again with "I've Heard It All Before" on a continuous loop. Brilliance.
That's all I can be bothered doing now...

You must have the bit from Live To Tell in there somewhere. You know the "If I ran away, I'd never have the strength to go very far, how would they hear the beating of my heart?"
That's a classic!
