I know it’s only rock and roll
Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that Madonna does NOT play rock and roll? Silly question, I know, but the Rock an Roll Hall of Fame seems to be a bit confused. No disrespect to Madonna; she has done some amazing, albeit controversial, things in her career, but I can’t remember any great rock and roll songs being among her accomplishments. Papa Don’t Preach? Hey, I’m not preaching, I’m just saying that, as I’ve read on several other blogs, there are many bands and artists, such as John Mellencamp or Styx or Rush that deserve to be there much more so than she does. I would consider her for the pop or possibly the R&B Hall of Fame, if they ever decide to branch out and create a another wing to the building. Come on, though, lets stick to the rock and roll. Don’t put Madonna up there with the Stones; that’s sacrilege.
