Talk:Into the Groove

message: I remember reading that Madonna had originally written this song for another singer, but at the last minute Madonna decided it was too good and kept it for herself. Maybe this could be incorporated into the article. -- Andrew Parodi 06:59, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I have noticed that someone appears to have adjusted all of Madonnas (or nearly all) 80s singles total weeks on the UK chart to take into consideration the top 100. The OFFICIAL chart for this period was in fact the top 75, and all of these weeks should ideally be reverted back to reflect that. The Guinness book of hit singles uses the top 75, and the source for the current totals, whilst fascinating, and not necessarily a *lie*, is not reflective of actual official data.Turdalina (talk) 20:21, 15 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: The OCC website posts only the positions inside the top 40, the UK Chart extends upto Top 100, and re-extends to Top 200, though that one is not official. We cannot ignore top 100 positions. — Legolas (talk2me) 03:09, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

message: Should the back cover of "Angel" be uploaded? --George Ho (talk) 01:19, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it belongs to "Angel" article and is already present there. —Indian:BIO · [ ChitChat ] 08:28, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

text: Why wouldn't? It wasn't released as a single in US, but was a single overseas. Its as clear as daylight that the cover art used is that for the song's single release and no ounce of B-side usage should even be present. —IB [ Poke ] 08:11, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

message: I'm glad the chart performance section discusses the song's absence from the Billboard Hot 100, although there are some key issues not addressed. Presently, the article states that "Into the Groove" was ineligible to chart on the Hot 100 and its component sales chart (Hot 100 Singles Sales). This is sourced to a 2003 Fred Bronson book and a 2013 Gary Trust article in Billboard, neither of which actually state that the song was ineligible from appearing on the Hot 100 Sales chart, although since I do believe this is true, I'm not going to delete it. I'm curious though about the fact that the song was also apparently ineligible from charting on the Billboard Hot 100 airplay chart. My assumption is that at the time, Billboard wouldn't chart a song on its Hot 100 Airplay chart if it wasn't available as a commercial single--even if it was getting significant airplay. "Into the Groove" did chart on the similar Top 40 airplay chart published by Radio & Records. On the R&R top 40, the song debuted on May 24, peaked at #6 on June 28, and spent 11 weeks in the top 40. Given that there was substantial overlap at the time between the Radio & Records top 40 and the Hot 100 Airplay chart, its absence from the Hot 100 Airplay chart must have been an intentional omission due to Billboard rules. Curiously, these rules must have changed sometime before 1988, since early that year, Madonna did chart on the Hot 100 Airplay chart with a single that was not available commercially, "Spotlight" (peaked at #32 on Hot 100 Airplay, and similarly, at #31 on the R&R top 40). I've never found any sources though that explain these '80s-era rules, although I continue to look for them. Ww adh77 (talk) 13:10, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
