Watching MAX on Foxtel in Darwin where they are doing a top 20 of the 80s. Im debating with myself whether Madonna s 1989 Like A Prayer is in fact 80s or really a premonition of 90s synth-based dance focused music. Its certainly a progenitor of the style but I think it fits less in the 80s than the 90s despite its chronology. This relistening leads me to conclude that it is ahead of its time. Also I did not recognize Madonna... She looks very different now. The synth bass plus the drum programming and the clear block structure of the arrangement (including sections finishing in the late 4 rather than alighting on the 1) is key for me. Such is my evening. They are playing U2 now. I hate U2.
