Nessie Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 i must say my fave moment of the CT is whem she is rising on the cross. beggining of Live to Tell and of course the Music fever dance at the catwalk! sure the yoga-vogue pose is the greatest iconic moment of RIT and for SS i agree, the Vogue intro takes the cake. it really is super iconic! the CANDY intro whem she is at her throne is also a moment to remember.

Phantom Pain Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Was she wearing a shiny silver suit when she did the robot walk? Because I remember her walking like a bad ass S and M whore ready to make your ass feel PAIN and pleasure... the best CT moment for me is the opening , when the disco ball opens and she comes out of it just...

IsaacHarris Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 the best CT moment for me is the opening , when the disco ball opens and she comes out of it just... ^That was Pretty Cool. So Dramatic! My Top 3 (for now) #1 Sticky & Sweet Tour: "She's Not Me" - When she took off those red shorts! I WAS SCREAMING! THE WHOLE AUDIENCE JUST WAS LIKE "WTF?!" i loved that part, SNM was one of the highlights Live. #2 Girlie Show "Fever" looked so Sexy. The part when she falls back & the Asian Guy catches her WHILE She puts that leg into the Black mans arms! #3 Reinvention Tour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neutrocks Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Actually, it's hard to just name one from each show, but here I go... "Gambler" from Virgin Tour ("Dress You Up" Ties) The whole medley; "Dress You Up, Material Girl, and Like A Virgin" was fun from WTG. "Like A Virgin" from BA (Holiday was just as great) "Everbody/Everybody Is A Star" from GIRLIE SHOW (Like A Wirgin was awesome as well) "La Isla Bonita" from DW "Lament" from RIT (this performance just blows everything else away) "Like A Virgin" from CONFESSIONS TOUR (I love this updated version) "Like A Prayer" from S&S (though the whole Spanish section was awesome with YOU MUST LOVE ME) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pud Whacker Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 She topped that 5 or 6 times during the show itself. well, yes but that first moment, in the audience waiting for her to come on and then you got those hard drum crashes and wow...she descended from the stairs like a goddess coming down to the common people.

nobody_knows_me88 Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Unfortunately I have only been to Sticky and Sweet. My favorite moment of that show was Miles Away. I had never really been a huge fan of the song until I heard it live. 2nd would be Candy Shop. From footage I have seen, I would most like to have been able to see Like a Virgin from CT and Nobody Knows Me from RIT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Okay, what the fuck is going on with her hair here? She takes the wig that she rips off one of the other Madonna-mannequins during "She's Not Me" and puts it on her head. As "Last Night a DJ Saved My Life" plays she crawls back down the catwalk. As "Music" starts, she takes the wig back off and then I think she changes costumes slightly. (Adds the purple shorts.) She also usually put the BAT jacket around her shoulders while she crawled. Not sure if that was a quasi-James Brown thing or what. I'm not sure if it's all an explicit reference to something I haven't seen or not... It plays like it might be, but her "SNM" performance is so thrilling (vocals aside) that you kind of need the moment to catch your breath before she busts into "Music."

HolidayGuy Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Mucho enjoyable moments in all the tours, but these stand out for me: Virgin Tour * Dress You Up: Great intro * Before "Everybody": "Every lady's got a box- but mine's different from other people's- mine makes music... but you have to turn it on..." * Burning Up: Smokin' hot performance Who's That Girl * The Look of Love: The dramatics on the treadmill * Papa Don't Preach; All the political/serious imagery during the instrumental bit * Like a Virgin: a rather silly (but fun) segment, but the highlight is when she segues into "I Can't Help Myself" * Who's That Girl: The haunting repeats of WTG at the end * Holiday: Love the "rock" rendition Blond Ambition * Entrance/Express Yourself * All of Act 2 (LAV/LAP/LTT/OF/PDP) * Holiday * Keep it Together Girlie Show * Why's it So Hard * Like a Virgin * Justify My Love * Holiday Drowned World * Entrance/Drowned World * All of Act 2 (Paradise/Frozen/NP/Mer Girl/SFH) * Lo Que Siente La Mujer * La Isla Bonita Re-Invention[/b} * Vogue * Nobody Knows Me * American Life * Express Yourself * Like a Prayer * Into the Groove * Crazy For You Confessions * Future Lovers/I Feel Love * Like a Virgin * Live to Tell * Isaac * Let it Will Be * Music Inferno * Hung Up (she looks very hot strutting down the runway in that leotard) Sticky & Sweet Could change when I see the show in high-quality DVD, but from what I've seen on Youtube: * Vogue * Into the Groove (jump-roping looks cool) * Borderline (if only because she sang it for the first time in 23 years) * She's Not Me * You Must Love Me * Like a Prayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pud Whacker Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 virgin: dress you up until over and over. the encores i dont care much for anymore. back then it was perfect live in person. wtg: the entire show is flawless. blond ambition: great sections. bad sections. great live in person. the girlie show: the one i never saw live. love it from beginning to end. best vocals ever. she blows express yourself and holiday out of the water. drowned world: save holiday, its perfect. one complaint is the controlled vocals but i understand as she matures she cant let it rip ala wtg or she will lose it completely. reinvention: same as BA with brilliant videos. plus she mastered her wtg conveyor belt. confessions: her tightest show. the drama of drowned world fused with the fun and sexy of virgin. sticky and sweet: perfection.
