5 January - 1800 TOP 40: MADONNA Madonna's blonde ambition was born when she was still a brunette living in Detroit. Her desire to "rule the world" drew the dancer and fledgling musician to New York's East Village, where she became a fixture on the early '80s punk scene. Those who knew her back then recall that she turned heads with a sexy ragamuffin look that would eventually spawn a world of wanna-bes. Always leading the pop zeitgeist, Madonna's music has evolved from dance-pop to earthy R&B to balladry; her latest album Music puts a soulful spin on French techno. From club scenester to cultural icon to mother (her most satisfying role yet), Madonna's moves are endlessly fascinating. VH1 plays the best selling 40 records of Madonna career to date. Included are all her massive hits from debut effort Holiday to Austin Powers theme track Beautiful Stranger - but what will be top of the charts? Tune into VH1 to find out.
