Posted July 20, 200717 yr Crazy For You sdkzWbSWZq8 In 1985 Madonna made a cameo appearance in the movie Vision Quest: she's seen as a singer in a club. She performs the song Crazy For You. This lovely ballad became Madonna's second #1 hit in the US (after Like A Virgin), which was certified Gold. It also reached #1 in Australia and Japan, and #2 in the UK (the #1 was for Sister Sledge's 'Frankie'). While the single scored high, the movie didn't. That's why the movie was released in Europe with the title "Crazy For You". Because of the huge success of the single a second Madonna song from the movie was released: Gambler. In 1991, the track was re-released in the UK to promote Madonna's first greatest hits album, The Immaculate Collection and had to settle for a #2 peak again. The video, directed by Harold Becker, shows parts of the movie Vision Quest. We see how wrestler Louden Swain (Matthew Modine) falls crazy in love with Carla (Linda Fiorentino). Meanwhile Madonna sings about their love in a night club. Crazy For You was performed for the first time live on the Virgin Tour. It was the only slow-tempo performance of the show with Madonna mostly sitting on the stairs, naturally making it the best vocal performance of the concert. Crazy For You @ Re-Invention TourIt took nearly 19 years before it was put back on another setlist. During the Re-Invention tour, Madonna dedicated this song to all her fans who had stuck by her for 20 years. Standing on a higher side stage, she stood close to the crowd and sung this beautiful ballad to her fans. At every "crazy for YOU", she pointed at the crowd, while the fans - many of them full of emotions - did the same and pointed at her. It was a very sweet way to thank us for all those years... http://www.madonnashots.com/vt243.jpg
