Corría 1990 y la Ciccone, aquella chica de Michigan, ya había cosechado suficientes éxitos como para considerarla entre los grandes de la música. Con Madonna en 1983, Like a Virgin en 1984, True Blue en 1986 y Like a Prayer en 1989 había cosechado discos de diamante y platino por todo el mundo, había vendido más de 70.000.000 de discos.
Aquel año coprotagonizaba junto a Warren Beatty la adaptación de la tira de Chester Gould en el Chicago's Tribune de los años 30 del detective Dick Tracy, película que cuenta con tres álbumes, uno de ellos I'm Breathles de ella misma. El single de lanzamiento de este álbum seria este tema originalmente compuesto para la cara B del sencillo Keep It Together de Like a Prayer e inspirado por la película, pero la fuerza del tema lo convertiría, discográfica mediante, en el single de su siguiente disco. Vogue es quizás el primera paso de una transformación continua, siempre sorprendente y hasta mágica (de pura brujería) de la eterna Madonna, que a sus cincuenta y pico años nos pega cien vueltas a todos en la pista. Su videoclip, uno de los 69 que ha grabado en toda su carrera, es otro hit de nuestra historia marcada por la siempre presente Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone.

Look around
Everywhere you turn is heartache
It's everywhere that you go.. look around
You try
Everything you can to escape
The pain of life that you know.. life that you know
When all else fails and you long to be
Something better than you are today
I know a place where you can get away
It's called a dance floor
And here's what it's for so
