Hapertje Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Every sunday of this tour, Madonna skipped the medley! Even if she didn't have to hurry (like in Antwerp, when she had to be in Germany the next day. Even they got the medley!). What's up with that???
Starman Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I think she just got bored of it and to have to change her outfit after only 2 songs (lfl and la isla). Its a shame but maybe u are right about the sunday reason
Guest bluejean Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 1. The medley is boring 2. The medley outfit is Grandma appropriate 3. The LFL matador outfit is LIFE 4. Like a Prayer is the Madonna WORLD ANTHEM and should be performed on every show she ever plays. The end.

Guest bluejean Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Maybe she cut the medley on Sundays because she has to get home before 12 and read The Zorah?
VogueMusic Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 The medley is not boring. It's one of the true highlights of the show. If it wasn't, then why does it get one of the biggest responses in the whole show. The crowd goes fucking nuts after it. It's wonderfully colorful, a real celebration, with a medley of classic songs (and we know she doesn't do a lot of medleys in this vein...)...like a big classic stage musical number. What's there not to love?

Well it's my opinion, I find it to be one of the low points in a jam packed show and I wouldn't miss it terribly if she cut it. And I love Dress You Up and Into the Groove but something about this version doesn't do it for me. It's also pretty lengthy. The backdrops are cool though, I am sure we will still get it on the DVD.

Guest Rachelle of London Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 The medley is not boring! It's brilliant. At every show I've been to its brought the house down. It contains 3 of her most loved songs and visually is a treat. What's not to love?
Creepy Insane Person Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 She better not remove the medley.

From 3rd row (with her back to me) and from the heart I wasn't feeling it.
Nora Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I love that medley and I'm kind of sad that I didn't see it live, cause she cut it at my show! Of course the show was still amazing without the medley, but I wish I'd seen it live too...
Yang Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 It's not boring but fun and cheering. I just don't like the outfit much, esp the hat, which makes her look like a farmer, not a 60's diva (according to Gucci)
MCHL Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Every North American show had the medley I wonder if she is going to start cutting it when she's back here in January
Guest bluejean Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Probably. By the time she gets to Australia this'll be the setlist: "Iconic" "Bitch I'm Madonna" "Holy Water" (contains excerpts from "Vogue") "Devil Pray" "Messiah" (video interlude) "Body Shop" "HeartBreakCity" (contains excerpts from "Love Don't Live Here Anymore") "S.E.X." (video interlude contains elements of "Justify My Love") "Living for Love" Human Nature (Acoustic) "Rebel Heart" "Illuminati" (video interlude) "Candy Shop" "La Vie en rose" "Unapologetic Bitch" BYE BITCHES!!!
HavenHigh Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Hmm interesting find... She did cut Dress You Up from three non-Sunday shows though plus she performed it in Edmonton on October 11th, that's the lone exception... I would also prefer her to axe it from the show completely, we'll see if it's still in the Asian or Australian leg...
jonski43 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 It's visually stunning with all the dancers, the video and everyone singing along. It works much better live than on a crappy youtube clip. I think the outfit is one of the highlights. It fits perfectly in the show. I would have been disappointed had this part been missed out in B'ham.
TrueBlue Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 Those of you dissing the medley are seriously nuts!!! And I adore her dress, it's not grandmalike its fucking couture Frida Kahlo!!! I'm so grateful I got to see it live, sounds amazing, looks amazing.
TrueBlue Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 It's a performance art piece, celebrating three early gems (four at first) blended with the life and vibrancy of Frida. Dressing us up in love, colour, art and music, I won't accept any complaints!!!!! My only guess to its being cut at times must be logistical, the costume change. I can't think of anything else, as Madonna truly hinted to it in her instagram of Frida prior to the tour, as well as hinted Dress You Up. And we all know her enduring love of Frida, don't we? It's exceptional to own such important works as Madonna do.
karbatal Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 I loved the medley!!! Didn't know she had skipped it so many times!

Nikki Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 the outfit is beautiful. love the style and love to frida kahlo

Must be a superstitious thing. Like how she does the prayer circle before every show (sorry, I know not everyone thinks of prayer as a superstition...but I'm too lazy to find a synonym).

Playing Candy Shop is also a superstition thing
