Some of her later stuff in the 90s was underrated.

Ray of Light.
Like a Prayer (made all the better by its pious denunciation by (I think it was) Barry Lang on The Beat Box on Sundays - he refused to play it because of what he called "the offensive nature of the video")
La Isla Bonita

Honourable mentions:
Cherish
Frozen
Open Your Heart
Take a Bow
Hung Up

I must say I found it very hard to narrow it down to 3. Her stuff was consistently good.

An odd one for me. IV was by some distance my favourite album for decades. But my older ears can't take too much heavy rock anymore. I can still appreciate their extraordinary genius, but just not for too long at a time.

Thinking about it this morning I can't really separate IV apart from one song, which to me is proof that if Page had gone down the folksy ballad route, Zeppelin would have been the greatest folksy ballad band of all time.
