(Image via video still/AllAboutMadonna.com) Madonna's “Vogue,” one of the best singles of the past 50 years, is 30 years old today, March 27.
It remains a huge part of her legacy, and — increasingly, over time — reflects a shining portion of a greater American-music and queer legacy as well.
One thing I love about Madonna is her references. Some, with little imagination, call them rip-offs and try to argue that she's stolen, as if every artist is not beholden to their inspirations.
