Madonna's famous 1990 song "Vogue" was my first choice to look at. I think this is definitely a hit that has stood the test of time for many reasons. It is one of Madonna's most famous songs, most people know what the song is after the first few bars, and it even spawned one of the most famous dances of the 90's by the same name.
While looking at "Vogue" I noticed that at about 189 seconds into the song, there is a dramatic element that really brings the entire song together. Madonna builds up the chorus, really singing her heart out, a dramatic pause occurs, and than the song continues.
Going with the golden section, the duration of the song is 290 seconds, with the dramatic element happening at 189 seonds making the ratio 1.53..a little too far away to be a true golden section song.
Also, this song does not conform to the fibonacci sequence because it does not fit into one of the times specified.
I'll keep you updated with my next song...
