On July 16 1985, Madonna’s hit single, Crazy For You, was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipment of one million copies of the single in United States—the requirement for a gold single prior to 1989.

  1. Now this is more like it! Rock ballad Crazy for You is the sound of Madonna figuring out what to do and in her life shooting for the top of the rock tree of immortality and brilliance-and staying there for 40 years of her rebel life-and loving it!
