I’m Breathless yellow vinyl Barnes & Noble exclusive – pre-order now (link available)!

A collection of songs featured or inspired by the comic-book-turned-movie Dick Tracy, I’m Breathless is essentially Madonna‘s take on popular music from the ’40s, particularly big-band pop. Although her singing shows a surprising amount of range, the material tends to be nothing more than cutesy novelty numbers, like the double entendre-laden hit “Hanky Panky.” I’m Breathless approaches greatness only on “Vogue,” a hit single tacked on to the end of the record. Featuring an endlessly deep house groove and an instantly memorable melody, “Vogue” is a detatched, affectionate celebration of transcendent pop and gay culture and stands as Madonna’s finest single moment.
