"Joan Of Arc" is such a beautiful song. Yes and such rare vulnerability lyrics from M.

I'm in good company!! The lyrics are unusually vulnerable and gut-wrenching for Madonna in Joan of Arc, but the production sux ass. It either needed to be more sparse or bigger but instead it's this weird basic beat major key that sucks all the life and emotion out of the lyrics. And I don't understand why - she did understated and emotive songs so well on this album with Heartbreak City, Messiah, Body Shop, and Ghosttown as examples so it makes the flaccid production of Joan of Arc stand out like a sore thumb even more.

I can't find fault with production on this album because of what happened with leaks. It's probably the worst leaking incident happened to a major pop star in many years. Could it have been better? Yes, if leaks didn't happen. I hope we'll get a remastered edition in the future with Avicii Heart.

And so it comes down to the two songs with the lowest SDs. With 30 points, 12 #1s and 1 bottom-3 rank between them, the winner is...

I knew Ghosttown would be #1. It's a good song though. I do enjoy Living For Love and while it might seem kind of plain, I think it was the best choice for the album's first single. I forget what the circumstance was - maybe around the leaks and stuff, but it definitely should have done much better than it did. SUPER pleasantly surprised to see Rebel Heart make #3! I was expecting it to miss the top ten altogether! Too bad it's only on the deluxe edition and not even the regular album. No idea who made that decision. Thanks for participating! When I'm not in nearly as much agony, I'll open the next one. Love you!
