loomer Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 I tend to think of Vogue as being 80s in some way... her last 80s hit that capped off that decade in style, it was recorded then and the video presumably shot very early 1990 with that hair transition. JML was the first 90s Madonna record sonically, more forward thinking and had nothing to do with her past and set the tone for what was to come (Erotica). Either way 1990 was the biggest year of her career Supernatural: I guess it was. Maybe a cheeky reaction to Inner City badmouthing her at the time?

elijah Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 A court rules that "no reasonable audience" would find the sampled portions of a 1976 composition significant "nor would they recognize the appropriation." A lawsuit claiming that Madonna and producer Robert "Shep" Pettibone illegally sampled a tune on her 1990 international hit "Vogue," has been resolved with a ruling favor of the defendants. our editor recommends The original lawsuit was filed in July by VMG Salsoul, the copyright owner of a 1976 composition called "Love Break." The plaintiff alleged that it was only through new technology that the "deliberately hidden" sampling had been detected. PHOTOS: Top 10 Legal Disclaimers in Hollywood But a U.S. District Court judge in California has ruled on summary judgment that sampling of the Horn hit was "trivial," in that in could not be recognized. "Having listened to the sound recordings of Chicago Bus Stop, Love Break, and Vogue, the Court finds that no reasonable audience would find the sampled portions qualitatively or quantitatively significant in relation to the infringing work, nor would they recognize the appropriation," the ruling reads. "The Court finds that any sampling of the Horn Hit was de minimis or trivial." Says attorney Richard Busch, who represented the defendants: "We are thrilled with the decision, and believe it is absolutely the right result." http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/madonna-music-producer-win-vogue-657052 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsaacHarris Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Lovebreak is a staple in the ballroom scene; you can hear it all up & through Paris is Burning. The horn stabs are similar but I wouldn't consider it plagiarism... thats reaching a bit.

He was basically sampling himself since he re-used his own remix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raider of the lost Ark Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I thought Aisha had written Vogue, just as every other song Madonna claims to have written. Poor girl will never get the recognition. By the way, where is she? In an asylum? Haven't heard of her in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
