A imporre un nuovo standard di cantante donna e` stata la ninfetta di strada Madonna Ciccone, nata (nel 1959) e cresciuta a Detroit (figlia dell'abbruzzese Silvio, rimasta orfana della madre a sei anni con sette fratelli), dove apprese i primi elementi di danza moderna.
Madonna e` stata comunque parte di un processo di revisione della canzone pop che ha mutato radicalmente stile, melodia, ritmo, arrangiamento e atmosfera del canto esistenziale, ponendosi come pietra miliare in quell'evoluzione che ha portato dai chansonnier parigini al cabaret berlinese e dai folksinger ai cantautori.
