Talk:Burning Up (Madonna song)

message: I notice that it says in the article that the music video for Burning Up was only ever released on the Madonna video EP... but shouldn't some mention be made of the fact that the video is available on iTunes? 70.157.21.139 (talk) 09:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

message: How Can Burning Up have been performed in that costume as the encore to the Virgin Tour when the costume described is the one she wore for the initial 'act' of the show? Turdalina (talk) 18:07, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Encore outfit?

message: For Burning Up, Madonna wore black leggings, long black gloves and black cropped top as seen in this live video of the song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-MmA-tMy14
It was not part of the encore either. That was just Like A Virgin and Material Girl in the final white wedding outfit.

thread_title:  Edit request 

message: I noticed on this page, as well as many others, that the genre is not always specified nor is it always correct. Burning Up is a Punk Rock song. It is also a dance song but it's punk rock nonetheless. So why is it not classified as such? Just as Everybody was considered an R&B song at the time wouldn't it be considered an Urban Pop song? Especially if she was being portrayed as a black female at the time?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.181.61.49 (talk) 00:00, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

message: The statement that Burning Up "failed to do well commercially anywhere, except the dance chart in the United States" strikes me as unfair. I don't think Sire Records intended Burning Up as a release for a mass audience in the U.S.--I think their promotion was geared solely toward a dance audience. First, the fact that they only released it as a 12" single, indicates to me that it was marketed toward dance music fans, and not mainstream pop music fans, who, at the time, would have been buying singles on 7" vinyl records. Second, the promotional record sent to radio stations for the single only had Physical Attraction on it (on both sides of the record). So Burning Up wouldn't have received much airplay. For these reasons, I think the song was only intended to promote Madonna on the dance floor, and not at radio or retail. That it managed to reach #3 on the dance chart is a sign that it was a success in this regard. The push to give Madonna mainstream recognition came with her next single, Holiday.Ww adh77 (talk) 18:32, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
