At this song of all songs getting the biggest boost.

"Vogue" is Madonna's biggest selling physical single in the US, with sales of around 2.3 million. This was her only physical single to go multiplatinum here.

Into The Groove-sus

Her best selling song in the UK was never released commercially in the US. MESS. It would have been a no1 on the Hot100. It had and still has so much airplay.

They wanted to boost the soundtrack's sales.

yes @ her best song from LAV slaying the UK

It's weird because in 1985 sales of 12" singles counted towards Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Chart (by another name at that time), but not the Hot 100.

Therefore, "Into The Groove" actually peaked at #19 on Billboard's R&B Chart, aided by both sales and airplay, but was ineligible for the Hot 100 because it had no 7" single available.

"Into The Groove" was the B-side song of "Angel," but during this period of time, B-Sides were not allowed to chart, even if as in this case they were Top Five in Airplay and bigger than the A-Side, as was the case with "Into The Groove" (B) and "Angel" (A).

Less than two years later, the rules for the Hot 100 had changed. "Never Say Goodbye" by Bon Jovi was allowed to chart on the Airplay Chart without a commercially available single (Into The Groove wasn't even allowed there, though it may have reached #1), and "Deep River Woman," the Country B-Side Lionel Richie recorded with Alabama on the back of the A-Side single "Ballerina Girl," reached the 70s on the Hot 100.

The "Into The Groove" dilemma in 1985 at Billboard, where it charted on R&B but not Pop, was the top selling 12" single of the year) but excluded from the Hot 100 because "the song was not commercially available," and Radio & Records ranked the song on their Airplay-only based chart, whereas Billboard wouldn't even let "Into The Groove" place on their Airplay Chart, forced Billboard to reconsider some of the eligibility requirements for a song to place on the Hot 100.

That's why "Into The Groove" was such a smash in the UK but only an "unofficial" smash here in the US.

Incredible that her Top 10 biggest sellers feature songs from the 80s, 90s and 00s!!!
