Talk about starpower: I'M BREATHLESS features the club classic "Vogue," which many consider to be Madonna's greatest song, and three tunes by Broadway composer Stephen Sondheim, including the Academy Award-winning "Sooner Or Later." But because "Vogue," which is also available on THE IMMACULATE COLLECTION, doesn't quite fit in with the rest of the album--a collection of novelties and show tunes that live up to the subtitle "Music From And Inspired By The Film DICK TRACY"--and because the rest of the album doesn't quite fit in with Madonna's more familiar work, fans might be tempted to pass up I'M BREATHLESS. That would mean missing out on an essential, oft-hidden side of Madonna as well as missing out on vocal performances that critics agree rank among her best. With tracks like "I'm Going Bananas" and "Hanky Panky," I'M BREATHLESS may be a Madonna oddity, but it's an oddity fans will want in their collection.
