Without question this is the most gracefully stylish music video ever made.

The dancers including Madonna were doing the dance! Everyone at that time was doing the dance and break dancing!!! The song was everywhere on the airwaves!!! I huge hit for Madonna establishing her as a "Diva!"

Vogue just earned the official title as Madonna's biggest single, 3X platinum. thats saying something with her catalogue! & vogue was literally an 'add on' at the last minute, & was not intended or expected to become THE song of 1990. it was released as a b-side 🤦‍♂ such a HUGE smash worldwide coupled with the equally huge Blonde Ambition World Tour '90 ... it was the summer of Madonna & it shot her past every other star on the planet. she was at her most powerful here. the most famous woman in the world bar none she told dick clark on american bandstand 6 years earlier that she wanted' "to rule the world" by this point, shed achieved that (& you might be surprised with the im breathless soundtrack. there are some brilliant cuts on there! she pulls off 40s jazz pop as only Madonna could! she can literally handle almost EVERY musical style. thats why shes the Queen.)

18th century (1700s).

Moving their hands a lot IS part of the dance. "Vogue" refers to the high fashion magazine (which still exists) and "voguing" involves striking poses that you might've seen in the magazine in the 80s.

As a classic movie buff, I have to wonder how many of the stars referenced in the song are familiar to young people like yourself: Greta Garbo and Monroe, Dietrich and DiMaggio, Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean on the cover of a magazine. Grace Kelly, Harlow Jean, Picture of a beauty queen. Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers dance on air. They had style, they had grace. Rita Hayworth gave good face. Lauren, Katherine, Lana too, Bette Davis. We love you. FYI, their full names are: Greta Garbo, Marilyn Monroe, Marlene Dietrich, Joe DiMaggio (but he was an athlete, not an actor; AND he was married to Marilyn Monroe), Marlon Brando, James Dean, Grace Kelly, Jean Harlow, Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Rita Hayworth, Lauren Bacall, Katherine Hepburn, Lana Turner, Bette Davis.

YESSSSSSS. One of the best performances ever!

Voguing is striking poses. Some of it can be exaggerated posing to simple subtle ones. It's an attitude. The documentary "Paris Is Burning"(1990) highlights the late 1980s early 1990s voguing dance seen like no other. When the song Vogue came out, it introduced the masses to that form of expressive dance style and it's housey music. It played on prime time MTV a LOT. Madonna has performed the song on her concert tours in many different ways. Each version is completely unique and shows how the song can be remixed to fit new eras. Definitely worth checking out.

It was a MONSTER!! It was everywhere. It filled the floor for years. Only problem is that voguing was meant for one or two dancers on the floor just voguing their patooties off (in a competition) When you have 200 people with their arms swinging around it can cause a lot of injuries. When someone came out and you could tell they knew what they were doing you stayed out of the way. Many people were happy that she made this song and many of the people in the video were queer people of color who were among the first to vogue in the ballroom scene. I remember seeing her in her Blonde Ambition tour perform it and for probably 10 years I had her VOGUE performance from the MTV awards on VHS tape that I would watch from time to time. If you want to learn more about the ballroom scene watch "Paris is Burning".

Madonnas best

my favorite Madonna memories are from when she first entered the scene with Material Girl. the world was highly influenced by her unique music AND attire -especially the clothing industry. the style and accessories were duplicated and available E V E R Y W H E R E. A total blast!!!

Madonna is one of my all time favorites. She came on the scene during my most formative years and I have followed her music ever since. Probably the most evolutionary musical artist I've ever seen. Please, PLEASE, please! Keep going on this journey. I want to recommend you start earlier in her career but I always recommend "Get Into the Groove" & "Human Nature" first. lol There is simply far too much to listen to with Madonna... but some great early songs are Holiday, Lucky Star, Borderline, Material Girl, Like a Virgin. But the MTV live performance of Vogue is also a must see. I would probably watch the live version of "Like a Virgin" before that one though (also MTV performance)... it was the first of its kind and when she put the world on notice, officially, she'd be breaking many barriers.

This was HUGE!

This was nothing short of a tsunami in the clubs of 1990. One of my best friends ( of 40 years now ) did a fantastic mix leading into Vogue with Keep It Together- which Vogue was supposed to be a B side for!!

One of Madonna's best videos, when she was at the top of her game. One that I think is as good is the "Express Yourself" video, inspired by the Fritz Lang silent-era sci-fi move Metropolis.

The freaking Queen! #GOAT

Madonna is the best selling female artist of all time, the one and only Queen of Pop, the original trendsetter. God save the Queen!

this song hit me like a bomb and entered my bloodstream like a virus 34 years ago. yeah they are all definitely vogueing. two of her dancers are from the House of Xtravaganza, which is one of the most legendary houses in the NYC vogue/ballroom scene.

"Paris is Burning" s a great movie as an introduction to vogueing as well as the FX show "Pose".

Update: it’s been certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 🇺🇸

I bet you would like her video for "Music".

I had no idea that the Vogue video was directed by none other than David Fincher! Zodiac, Fight Club, The Social Network, Se7en, Alien 3, Gone Girl...the list goes on.

Yes enchanting song

Yes - they are indeed Voguing :-D EXPRESS YOURSELF by Madonna would be the natural follow up to this reaction

Vogue was the first song that brought the then underground music house to the top of the mainstream global charts. Vogueing which was originally created by queer people of ballroom scene in NYC Harlem, imitating and improvised by the poses from fashion magazines, like Vogue, in dance stand offs. Madonna also brought this unseen, underground art into the mainstream in the middle of the AIDS pandemic when queer people were literally accused and blamed for the spread of the disease. Her MTV performance was an homage to the ballroom scene where she was the mother of her house and with her children, they performing Marie Antoinette realness. The costume Madonna wears for that performance was the exact one Glenn Close wore in Dangerous Liasons that won the best Oscar for costume that year; designer Phlipps has been Madonnas show designer ever since. Most recently for the Celebration Tour which was absolutely spectacular. This song still is the blueprint. Arianna Grandes Yes, And is just a rework of Vogue. Beyoncé s Break My Soul is heavily inspired by it. Just two recent examples from the last 3,5 decades. Madonna is the one and only. ❤

The album title, I'm Breathless refers to her character, Breathless Mahony in the movie, Dick Tracy.

In short... House was something underground that was born to be enjoyed in alternative clubs and improvised venues as a devotion to dance, as a group communion to enjoy the moment. The origins are usually placed in Chicago and Detroit, but soon its expansive wave reached New York, London, Europe and the rest of the world. The major record companies saw the business opportunity, of course, and their biggest artists released songs with the most commercial side of the style. Soon variants emerged, such as Latin house, vocal house, tribal house, funky, minimal, tech, hard, dark, etc. Moreover, "voguing", especially adopted by the LGTBI+ collective, was a kind of staging of fashion magazine poses, taking its name from the famous Vogue.

the song is madonna's tribute to hollywood movie legends,i guess, talking about those iconic stars from the 20's to 50s, whom she was influenced.

So for Ken it's beach, for Madonna it's Vogue.

Best video of the 90s

OMG, memories. The bar that I went to in university used to have a Vogue contest each weekend. I won once---ahh, to be young again. If I tried to vogue now it would probably end up with a visit to ER:)))

For my money, her last absolute killer song. She had a great run there.

I loved this song so much I parodied it ("Rogue") on my other channel. 😁

Madonna was the biggest but not the first to bring Vogueing from underground to mainstream, check out Malcolm Maclaren's " DEEP IN VOGUE", to learn what " Vogueing is really about! It was actually created as a challenge dance! Think of models having a rapid "pose off" to music for "Vogue" magazine, and that might help you to understand what Vogueing is! The TV series " Pose" was about the underground ballroom scene, the characters and the talent that come from it. There's also a documentary called " Paris is burning"! There was also a competition show called " Legendary" that showcased Vogueing competitively for a few seasons!

Welcome to House!

You would really like the movie Truth or Dare, the first behind the scenes concert full length feature film to be played in movie theaters. The tour it was about - The Blond Ambition tour in 1991 is widely credited as creating the standard that all major pop concerts have had to live up to since. Also credited with being the first major example or what we today call reality television. I'm not 100% sure it still holds the record but as of a couple of years ago it was still the most successful documentary in history. I mention it because it came out at the same time as Vogue. For me and many other gay men of my generation, it was also the first time that we saw gay men portrayed as real human beings on the screen rather than caricatures, the butt of a joke or in a negative way. She is so ahead of her time in so many ways and more than any popular entertainer, IMO, has pushed our society outside of our various limiting comfort zones and towards greater tolerance and personal freedoms. I mean, she's right up there with the Beatles and Elvis in terms of commercial success and popularity which is mindboggljng considering how she has consistently been either vehemently hated or absolutely adored with little in between throughput her career. Then again, major disruptive forces to society always spawn such intense reactions depending on whether we are ready for or resistant to their message. Anyway - sorry for the novela. Great video.

love madonna music. vogue only in usa sold over then 3,000.000 copies

Strike a pose.

This was a movement, not just a dance song.

Not exactly the first House music song, as House had its roots in the Chicago underground dance music scene of the early-to-mid 1980’s. However, it WAS the first House music-influenced song to top the Billboard Hot 100, and it played a big role in bringing that music genre into the mainstream.

At last - someone finally gets to Madonna ❤ Love Floyd, Yes, Genesis, et al. Then there’s Madonna. This one’s a winner for me 😊 Love it. She was sued (or some sort of legal action) by Rita Hayworth’s family for the line “Rita Hayworth gave good face,” proving they had no idea what it fairly innocently meant. They lost IIRC. “Express Yourself” is, for me, her very best.

🔥🔥🔥

I was too young to hit the clubs when it came out, but I certainly remember that is was being played everywhere. I appreciate it more now. It's very well done. Popular music seems bland these days compared to this, but that might just be a product of my age

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Express Yourself is a huge Madonna hit. Check it out.

madonna would go and visit the underground New York dance clubs where all they would dance. They showed them dancing that way. That is she found those dancers voging and wanted them to be in her video.

Now that you’ve started some Glee reactions, I suggest reacting to their version of this song!

Maybe this is crazy maybe not. I was about 10 or something when this came out. I was a fan of the Dick Tracy movie and Madonna was basically the hottest woman alive…. Just as I was figuring that out. Anyway, this song was so dope. And I found out later that really enjoying the freedom and moves made scared folks assume things about me. But for me, it opened a lot of doors as far as there being no reason to fear people who were (in the 80s & 90s) seen as ‘different’ - though I had to let go of some friends, I got better ones and had a great time living. Some things don’t change but once you see how scared haters are, you can’t unsee it. For my part, this song’s still got it.

ocupas verla en los mtv de 1990 eso es otro nivel de experiecia con el sonido

Vogue originally appeared on the movie soundtrack I’m Breathless from the movie Dick Tracy . Once it was released as a single it exploded. The song was inspired by Love is the message from the group MFSB .

You should chek her VMSs performance of this. The performance feeld like watching an alternative video

I think the first Voguing song was kzread.info/dash/bejne/gZtnstqYZ9OyZqw.html by Malcolm McLaren so Madonna just following along.

Easily in the top 3 videos ever played on VH1. Played every 20 minutes for 10 years lol . That, take on me and sledge hammer

Vogue was a form of dance that started with the black and Latino kids. The movie Paris Is Burning shows the roots of voguing. It’s important to say Madonna spoke out for the gay community. The dancers, except one, in this video are all gay and toured with her in 1990. They were all in her truth or dare documentary. If you were a gay kid in the 80’s and 90’s, madonna was your god. Your only god. No other artist championed gays or empowered them. Now all artists do it but she was the first. The gay community owes her a lot. She also spoke out about AIDS but that a different story for a different time.

Speaking of dance music, have you reacted to that ear worm ‘It’s Raining Men’ by The Weather Girls? (Co written by Paul Schaffer from the David Letterman show)

this still is on every dancefloor, at least every gay party...

It's called house music.
