  Holiday (Madonna song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Madonna has performed "Holiday" on each of her tours thus far (with 2006's Confessions Tour being the only exception) and is considered one of her signature songs.
"Holiday" was Madonna's first true hit song, and the one that would begin to establish her as an artist in the public's eye.
The song, released along with Lucky Star as a double-A side single on the dance chart, spent five weeks at number 1 on the club chart and spent a total of seventeen weeks on the chart, tying "Music" as the Madonna single that has spent the most time at number one on the dance charts.

 Madonna VS. Mary J. Blige - Screen-Gems
According to some reports, Madonna is pissed and has filed suit against Mary J. Blige (along with Dr. Dre, her collaborator on this particular project) over her song "Not Today" from the Barbershop II sound track because it sounds far too much like Madonna's classic dance anthem "Holiday".
Lawyers for Madonna are claiming that a song by Mary J. Blige on the soundtrack of the film Barbershop 2 is remarkably like Madonna's song "Holiday."
