Madonna

Something To Remember

Fabulous collection!

Review Score:

(10/10)
This is, in my opinion, Madonna's greatest compilation thus far. Granted, Madonna's vocal range is rather limited, but that is what makes this collection near perfect. She may not have the chords of Whitney or Mariah, but they aren't known for emotional performances. But, that is where Madonna delivers: her emotional performance. What she doesn't have in range/octaves, she more than makes up for with the emotion that she consistenly evokes into her music, most noteably, her ballads. On another, more cynical, note..

Yes, I gave this collection 5 stars, but there are a few mis-steps regarding the song selection. For instance, the inclusions of the inspid "One More Chance," the thrown together "Forbidden Love," and the useless instrumental of "I Want You," are rather wasteful, when more, meaningful material such as "Promise to Try," "Spanish Eyes," and "Love Tried to Welcome Me" could've easily outshone the former, respectively.

But, as a whole, this is a great collection for anyone that appreciates emotional, and meaningful pop music.
