  1. I actually hope tour#10 it's heavy on Rebel Heart tracks/non-singles. IMO she's at her best and her best tours are always those light on oldies and heavy on non single album tracks (Drowned World, Confessions, MDNA)

    Vogue and Like A Prayer should be given a rest in my opinion


    Same for Holiday, Ray of Light, Hung Up, Like a Virgin, Express Yourself, La Isla Bonita, Music, Human Nature and most recently Candy Shop. All those need to be left in the shelf for at least, the next 2 tours. Give other oldies a chance! Everybody, Burning Up, Angel, Who's That Girl, Causing a Commotion, Deeper and Deeper, Don't Tell Me, Sorry, Get Together

  2. The singles i wanna hear; that need to be dusted off:

    1.Everybody (we got Burning up on RIT, Lucky Star on Confessions, Borderline on S&S and Holiday on everything else. Everybody needs to be brought back as an actual song on the entire tour, not just a special performance on special dates)

    2.Angel

    3.Gambler (electric guitar version would be awesome!!)

    4.True Blue (I know it'll never happen but, hey, one can dream)

    5.Who's That Girl

    6.Causing a Commotion

    7.Cherish (Same as True Blue)

    8.Oh Father

    9.Keep it Together (She's cool with all her brothers now...right?)

    10.Rescue Me

    11.Deeper & Deeper

    12.Bad Girl (About time we get a live rendition of this gem!!!)

    13.Secret

    14.Take a Bow

    15.Skin

    16.Drowned World / Substitute for Love

    17.Nothing Really Matters (Same as Bad Girl)

    18.Beautiful Stranger

    19.Don't Tell Me (Hopefully the Miley performance was a sign this gem will make its comeback on tour #10)

    20.Impressive Instant

    21.Nothing Fails (PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! and an actual performance, not an interlude)

    22.Mother and Father

    23.Intervention

    24.X-Static Process

    25.Get Together

    26.Sorry

    27.Miles Away

    28.Give It 2 Me

    29.Heartbeat

    30.I'm Addicted

    31.Gang Bang

    32.Beautiful Killer

    33.Best Friend (Actual performance not an interlude)

    The singles i DON'T wanna hear; need to be put on hold for, at least, the next 2 tours:

    1.Vogue

    2.Like a Prayer

    3.Music

    4.Holiday

    5.Ray of Light

    6.Human Nature

    7.La Isla Bonita

    8.Hung Up

    9.Like a Virgin

    10.Candy Shop

    11.Express Yourself

    12.Frozen

  3. I remember reading in a old interview that Madonna's favorite song of hers is Live To Tell, but I'm not sure if that's still true today. Maybe she changed her mind.

    She once called Cherish 'retarded', that she came up with it on a whim, and no longer likes it. Can't say I blame her b/c I think that song is kinda crappy and cheesy myself.

    MADGE FANS --- Aside from those two examples, has she ever said what other songs of hers she likes and what songs she dislikes? Can someone list them and what she has said about each song?

    Also, has she said which is her fav and least fav album of hers?

  4. I don't know if this has ever been done or posted but I wanted to create this thread to share with you guys my all-time tour costumes. Of course I also wanna see yours. Here are mine, enjoy!

    Sticky & Sweet Tour - Gypsy Dress

    Sticky_Sweet_Tour.jpg

    Why do I love it? Because it shows Madonna as a real woman. Feminine and fragile though strong and sexy at the same time with a touch of latin spirit, what she really is. I love how natural she looks wearing this outfit, her hair wild and free, the colors really compliment her and she looked more beautiful than ever when I saw her live in this outfit. Plus she almost never wears a dress for her tours, so that made this one even more special. This one's nothing like anything else she ever perfomed in. And the accessories are also perfect, the lace gloves, the tigh boots and the little hat she put on for La Isla Bonita and the fringe jacket for You Must Love Me. Not to mention the long black gown which was covering this dress first and when she took it off you could see it was pink inside and it fall off her and revealed this tiny colorful sexy dress. It was so symbolic and spot-on for the theme of that segment.

    Confessions Tour - Equestrian Outfit

    la42.jpg

    Why Do I Love It? Because it showed Madonna as the strong dominant figure. The leash and the leather stick really show that side of her as the strong dominant leader, yet feminine and sexy and I really liked that. It was a really great choice to use for the opening segment of the concert. The horse them and all the dancers wearing S&M gear really managed to make this outfit a very sexy yet powerful outfit and I felt it really managed to capture the whole "Confessions" essence.

    Drowned World Tour - NeoPunk Outfit

    IMG_0355.jpg

    Why do I love it? Because it's FIERCE. Madonna was 43 at the time of this tour and she could pull off the rock chick image so perfectly and made it work. It almost never looked the same in two concerts, they used different tops, kilts and accessories, using flags as kilt on some concerts, but the general look was always the same (my personal favorite is the stripped one shown on the picture above. if she had only kept that same outfit and hair do for the DVD),. I love Gaultier's special touches on this, the torn plaid skirts, and I love Madonna and him got the idea of using kilts on this tour from Gaultier's personal style. It works for her too. This was a fashion statement in 2001 and had so much influence on everyday fashion.

    The Girlie Show - My Fair Lady on LSD

    gis66.jpg

    You know an outfit is something special when it was designed for only one perfomance and it's the most astonishing one of the entire show. I adore this one so much and I could write essays only about this outfit. It was used for her most scandalous song ever, at her most scandalous tour, which was the high point of her Erotica era, so of course most people would have expected an orgy on stage when she performs Justify My Love on this tour. But instead of that Madonna was inspired by probably the most sophisticated social event imaginable, the Ascot Race which is nothing short of brilliant To see where this is coming from (My Fair Lady).

    MDNA - Masculine and Feminine

    madonna_mdna_tour_vogue_performance_181b

    I'm sure this relatively new costume has easily become a fan-favorite. A new skeletal, re-invention of the original cone bra, managed to add the right amount of femininity to Madonna's androgynous outfit (hence the act's name). It also managed to bring 'Vogue' back to its roots: Glam, fashion & camp. It was also used as a gender-playing game: Madonna plays with the male & female stereotypes again. Like herself, many of the girls wear parts of a men's suit, often a vest over sexy female legs. The man, on the other side, wear dresses, feather hats and high heels.

    Re-Invention - French Baroque

    2552251161_14f9ae12d2_o.jpg

    Why do I love it? (LOL How can I NOT love it?!) Because it's a Queen's outfit and it is beautiful in every detail. This time Madonna herself was the inpiration and Lacroix managed to make the baroque inspiration work in such a unique and fresh way which fitted her so well. Madonna wasn't Marie Antoinette this time but she looked definitely royal in her own sexy way. I love the bow in her hair, the shoulder pad, and the arm band. Personally I love the blue corset more than the gold one. She looked like a Queen wearing it.

    Blond Ambition - Metropolis

    Madonna-Blond-Ambition-Tour.jpg

    Why do I love it? Because this one's a legend. This outfit IS Madonna. This is the outfit which made me a Gaultier fan for life like he's my number one designer for ever, because anyone who could think of something like that is a genius This corset is the perfect embodiment of the feminine strength and is sexy and stunning and Madonna is wearing it in such an admirable way. It was definitely designed for her. Gaultier's been making coned bras and corsets for years now, but they look most perfect on Madonna because there's no living soul on this planet who can wear them this well and making them hers. I have an obsession for this outfit, for this performance and for this tour and what only makes it more perfect in my eyes it's the curls (i know the look with the ponytail is iconic but I just love how she looked with the curls). Really lost its essence when she put on the colorful biker jacket for 'Causing a Commotion' and 'Where's the Party' but still I'm crazy about it, it makes this look whole which is my favorite Madonna look ever. This corset is a signature outfit for both Madonna and Gaultier, my two idols, that's why it ended up number one on my list.

    Can't wait to see yours :)

  5. Re-Invention is the closest she has ever gotten - and probably ever will - to a 'Greatest hits tour'. M herself has said in the past that she doesn't want to become a nostalgia-greatest hits act. So no, I don't think Tour #10 will be a Greatest hits one. Also I don't think she should include 'Like a Prayer', 'Vogue', 'Holiday', 'La Isla Bonita', 'Human Nature', etc. They are soooo overplayed.

  6. I had previously seen on UltimateMadonna that "Secret" was rehearsed for CT. Also I had read on a Brazil Fansite that the slow jazzy "Deeper & Deeper" replaced a slow jazzy "Fever" on RIT. Similarly "Take a Bow", after it was dropped from the setlist, was scheduled to be the interlude performed halfway through "Mother and Father" (replaced by "Intervention"). Also on RIT, "Nothing Fails" in favor of "Easy Ride", "Love Profusion" and "XStatic Process" (Thank God)
