On December 27 1986, RPM magazine published their list of the top charting singles of 1986 in Canada.
Here’s how Madonna’s singles stacked up in the year-end ranking:
- Live To Tell – #2
- Papa Don’t Preach – #13
- True Blue – #37
A stark departure from her earlier pop hits, Live To Tell was initially considered by her record label to be a risky choice for a single. Its success showed that programmers were willing to give Madonna some room to grow on radio.
There it is! Live to Tell-Best song of Madonna’s life!
