For the time, and for a second album, pretty impressive. But pop's not really my thing. I doubt I'd bother listening to it again.
No it isn't. So far as I know, nobody on earth considers it her classic. You just dun ****ed up. I dig that album, but it's not even considered her classic 80s album, which would be Like a Prayer. If you want this entry to not be bull**** then you have to do Ray of Light. If pop were prog then Ray of Light would be Edge of the World.
