This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

1. Is it well written?

   A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:

   Question: Is the "H" in "Him" supposed to be capitalized? Same section, is this sentence ---> "Musically 'Angel' consists of three chord ascending hook", suppose to read like that? At the moment, it reads very odd. In the Composition section, this sentence is a run-on sentence ---> "The lyrics continuously repeat the angel-like image of Madonna's saviour and vocal harmonies are added beneath the main chorus". In the Live performance section, "Though performed as part of Madonna's 1985 The Virgin Tour. It was the fifth song of the setlist", combine those two sentences, very strange to have them separated.

   Normally referring to angels and God, we capitalize the prnouns, also it was present in the quote in that way. Clarified the rest. --Legolas ^(talk2me) 13:59, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

   Just checkin'.

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

   In the Background section, link "Like a Virgin" once. In the Chart performance section, "Angel/Into the Groove", those are two different songs, right?

   "Angel/Into the Groove" charted together in some charts. Though I clarified this. --Legolas ^(talk2me) 14:01, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

   Check.

2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?

   A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

   B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):

   C. It contains no original research:

   D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:

3. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:

   B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

4. Is it neutral?

   It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

5. Is it stable?

   It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

   A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:

   B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

7. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:

   Not that much to do. If the statements above can be answered, I will pass the article. Good luck with improving this article!
