Seriously, since when is Jump even that popular?
 
Don't Tell Me I never "got". But I agree with @VoR. Though it's personally 7/10 territory for me, it's a stone cold Madonna classic and objectively a 10/10 moment.
 
It's all about the STRINGS on Don't Tell Me. Especially combined with those distorted backing vocals and the looped guitar chord over the outro. *chefs kiss*

Speaking as somebody who really came of age during the Music Era, it was the last time she genuinely felt unassailably COOL. Even during Hung Up, the song was kind of undeniable but she still got a lot of (largely unfair) stick for being old/desperate/wearing a leotard etc.
 
if just two (2) Don't Tell Me HATEURS change their votes to Sorry we don't have to LOSE A CLASSIC.
 
I also can't @ people insinuating Jump is too basic when Sorry is the real basic bitch.

we learned our lesson form the start,
my sisters and me
the only thing you can depend on is your family
(MY SISTERS AND ME MY SISTERS AND ME) :disco:

I genuinely adore Don't Tell Me

BUT

A COAD exclusive final four? YES PLEASE
That whole era was almost perfection, dork lyrics aside

The lyrics are lovely, I choose to interpret the song as an updated Keep It Together.

But the fact that it’s the weakest song here remains.
 
Not even RoL was allowed to keep all its singles, why should CoaD?

Also:

Music >>> CoaD
 
Music is not better than COAD in ANY WORLD

But I have just had a Don't Tell Me moment and am immediately u-turning on voting it out. The moment the enhanced beat kicks in on the final chorus!
 
Love the verses to Jump, but I lose interest in the chorus. The less repetitious Don't Tell Me builds to a gorgeous orchestral climax - the squelchy bits are equally divine.
 
Omg I just remembered how they used to cut out the last part of Music's video on MTV (because it was so explicit? LOL!)
 
I've SEEN ENOUGH... "Jump" is OUT. The other four will advance to the final survivor. See you in the 2010s girls!
