On December 16 1989, Billboard magazine’s dance music section reported that Madonna had written and recorded a new song with Shep Pettibone titled Vogue. The article noted that the track was set to appear on the b-side of Madonna’s next single, Keep It Together.
These plans would soon change when it was decided that Vogue had too much hit potential to be released as a b-side, and it would instead be issued as a single in its own right once Keep It Together had run its course on the charts. In Europe, where Keep It Together was not promoted as a single, it would in fact be used as the b-side to Vogue.
Vogue would go on to become the best-selling physical single of Madonna’s career.
Vogue-a happy and friendly Madonna smile that flashed around the world!
Which one is her best selling digital tho. 4 Mintes or Hung Up…
4 Minutes is her best selling digital single in U.S., while Hung Up is her best selling digital single worldwide.
Fantastic tour rehearsal video. The precision of the choreography is really highlighted, with little distraction from fancy camera angles that the live shows have. It’s a good video to learn the moves from. Thanks for sharing. I hadn’t seen that before.
Glad you enjoyed it! I agree, it’s a great clip! 🙂
