What is the deal with the media mentioning it's been X years since "Song Whatever" (or "music video whatever") was first released? I've been seeing these the past two years or there abouts but never brought it up til now. I didn't realize it was going to be an on-going trend. If I had, I maybe would've started this thread a couple years ago. Here are recent examples of what I mean: "Crazy for You" Turns 30: Madonna's First Hit Ballad
Madonna’s “Vogue” Turns 25: Here Are 10 Other Songs That Were Hits In Spring 1990
I think in the last few months I recall seeing similar headlines for her other songs, but I don't remember exactly which ones - maybe Open Your Heart, Papa Don't Preach, Borderline? |

I think we're seeing this because it's the only way the media can create a headline about Madonna that can brag about her popularity. Since most of her recent material has bombed, they have to reach back into the past as a way to keep talking about her popularity or relevance. |

Just recently, the media began a wave about the 20th anniversary of Alanis Morrissette's Jagged Little Pill, which Madonna's Maverick label help break out. Back then, we thought the music industry as we knew it would last forever, never mind Madge's own self made cultural path. Bittersweet, ain't it? Nostalgia has to happen eventually when hope runs out. If there's too many sad fans & pundits who can't face life without Madonna now, imagine how they'll have to survive if she passes on before they do. |

I read about Vogue on wikipedia, and I didn't notice before: [...] with the release of the song, Madonna brought the underground "vogueing" into the mainstream culture. Before Madonna popularized the dance, Vogue was performed mostly in bars and disco of New York City on the underground gay scene. [...] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogue_%28Madonna_song%29 :-/ well, I thought Deep In Vogue, released few months before (almost a year) and maybe a minor success, did it first!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_in_Vogue |

I think it was written by Madge stan. They think she did everything first and brought to mainstream many things. Even when you point them out to be wrong they say people who did something before are unpopular, nobodies and it doesn't count. |

edit. Okay, I already pasted in a story above about Vogue, but I'm seeing these for the first time today, I guess they were just published today? -------------- There were two or three of these types of articles today. I'm only copying one. Madonna’s iconic Vogue video turns 25

Madonna's 'Crazy For You' became a number-one hit, 30 years ago ...
I liked some of the other songs put out under her name during the 80s, but I hated that one. Anyway, this is another instance of someone in the media pointing out it's been X years since Song Whatever by Madonna was released. |

...yeah I was never a big fan of that song either...apparently that song was already selected for a soundtrack to be sung by another female artist (don't know who) but m had her manager get them to give the song to her...another example of her ambition exceeding her talent...kinda like how she pushed her way into the movie version of 'Evita'... |

I had a "good" friend who fell in love, then ditched me for a better life. CFU was "their song". It's been classified as a country-inspired tune as well as a slow dance, for weddings or whatever else. Doubtless, the writer wants us to take comfort in slower & simpler times. But we had problems back then, too. |

Sorry Madge haters, I like this song. I just pretend it's not Madonna singing it. Some of my least favorite or hated Madge songs are: Oh father (Girl, Madonna just stop) Fever (The 1993 pales in comparison to the original), Vogue (she took the gay dance and.....ugh!) Everybody (she sounded like Mini-house on helium, yes she did), Rain (she sounded like a man) Open Your Heart (The video ruined it for me, she reminded me of this very bitchy popular girl in grade school). |
