    Make me think that there is a point to all this;
    
    Madonna (the LP)
    	I beg all of you who hate Madonna because of her past efforts, to
    listen to this.  Honestly, it's intelligent and you can feel what she
    feels when she sings these songs.  Okay there are a few commercial
    orientated tracks, the ones they've released, by the rest is
    unbelievably good.
    
    	If you do give it a try, you'll have already pursueded yourself
    that you will still hate her music afterwards.  Please take my word for
    it.  Even my Dad likes it and he's into Folk music.
