Overall Album Score: 7.4 out of 10 Average Song Score: 7.8 Album Tilt: 7.5 Artist Tilt: 7.0 Link to the full review: Mad Donna's Cow Disease Like a Virgin (1984) MADonna's big ole '80s classic album. It's a shame there's only three hits and the rest is crapola... Overall Album Score: 6.3 out of 10 Average Song Score: 6.8 Album Tilt: 6.0 Artist Tilt: 6.0 Link to the full review: I Take My Oil Olive, Extra Virgin True Blue (1986) Madonna turns into a serious artist. Why that doesn't translate into better songmanship is something that only the Devil can adequately answer. Overall Album Score: 6.2 out of 10 Average Song Score: 6.7 Album Tilt: 6.0 Artist Tilt: 6.0 Link to the full review: I Listened to This Album Twice, and I Swear My Face Had Never Looked That Blue Since. Who's That Girl (1987) Madonna does the unthinkable: She makes a pop-rock soundtrack containing her bad songs and even worse outside contributions. Resist the urge of killing yourself. Overall Album Score: 3.8 out of 10 Average Song Score: 4.4 Album Tilt: 4.0 Artist Tilt: 3.0 Link to the full review: The Devil You Can Dance (1987) She has a nice idea to release more danceable versions of some of her songs, but the only great songs of hers she chose to include was "Holiday." Overall Album Score: 6.5 out of 10 Average Song Score: 6.9 Album Tilt: 6.5 Artist Tilt: 6.0 Link to the full review: No I Can't Like a Prayer (1989) A massive improvement --- it's a shame that it's not consistent or good or anything. Well, I'll take all that I can get, actually... Overall Album Score: 7.1 out of 10 Average Song Score: 7.3 Album Tilt: 7.0 Artist Tilt: 7.0 Link to the full review: It's More Like Praying to the Porcelain God, Actually I'm Breathless (1990) Raise your hand if you want to hear Madonna sing a bunch of derivative '20s style pop music? ... Anyone? Anyone? Overall Album Score: 5.6 out of 10 Average Song Score: 6.4 Album Tilt: 5.5 Artist Tilt: 5.0 Link to the full review: I'm Clueless Erotica (1992) Every time someone plays this album, a porn star's breast implant ruptures. Overall Album Score: 5.6 out of 10 Average Song Score: 6.2 Album Tilt: 5.0 Artist Tilt: 5.5 Link to the full review: Boringica Bedtime Stories (1994) Much more tasteful! ... But much more boring.

Overall Album Score: 6.2 out of 10 Average Song Score: 6.6 Album Tilt: 6.0 Artist Tilt: 6.0 Link to the full review: You Might Even Fall Asleep Ray of Light (1998) The four-year break between albums was a really good idea. Seriously. It probably should have been longer than that, but ... count your blessings, my son.
