This tour represented Madonna at her most iconic: her career peak, the era when she was the queen of the airwaves, the dance floor, the box office and even the New York Times Bestseller list. Young people today probably don't realize just how big she was.
Actually not all young people. I knew her, like, 2 years ago, and it was a love at first sight. I’ve been following her since then. She has become my favorite singer, and Madonna really knows how to take me to a sweet state of ecstasy and help me to go through the bitterness of rough days.
Agreed...!!! When Taylor Swift can draw 1.5 million people to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro when she is 65. Like Madonna recently did at her latest concert. Then she can talk.
Gaga and the younger artists have taken so much inspiration from this woman. I remember this concert like it was yesterday! Nobody can top Madonna in her prime. The choreography, the outfits, the song catalogue....unreal!
I am one of those people who missed the Blond Ambition tour live. I have watched her live since but not this one. Blond Ambition takes my breath away almost. This may look like an insult but GaGa has been influenced without doubt by Madonna but Gaga often makes her videos and stage persona look cheap and thrown together without thought. In a hurry almost.
She will ALWAYS be the queen of pop. Nobody can touch her even now at 65. When Taylor Swift can draw 1.5 million people to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro when she is 65. Like Madonna recently did at her latest concert. Then she can talk.
Madonna was untouchable as artist, a cultural icon, a business woman, a brand, and she infused theater, music, dance, creativity everything in this concert. To me the best concert tour ever.
She did all of those things and she did them well. The only thing I can say probably being a little bit older than a lot of the responders here is that the first performer to actually do concerts as a combination of theater, concert, Dance, costumes and a set of backup singers,( The Harlettes,)who were always part of the show; All that, with comedy too was Bette Midler. One of the three or four best live performers of this century. She also had a regular character in her shows, Dolores del Lago, who was a mermaid in a wheelchair who did choreographed shows with her Harlettes were also mermaids in wheelchairs. Always a hysterical part of the show.
She paved the way for people like Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, etc...But what's amazing is she can still draw a crowd. Like she recently did when 1.5 million people came to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro for her latest concert. When you can still do that at 65 that's saying A LOT. A record for the largest audience ever for a stand-alone concert by any artist in history....!!!
She set the bar as to how concerts should be done. She was the first live performer to have a concert like this with all the dancing and story telling.
Absolutely. She was ground breaking in so many ways. She was my absolute idol and I didn't care one bit that she sang along with a tape. I think she was even ground breaking for doing that haha. It was never an issue for me. She was a phenomenal artist.
@barbieflannigan3957 There may have been artists before who used costumes, choreography, dancers... but Madonna was the first to create performances with themes, interludes, where the whole show was connected to itself and not just singing random hits.
I was there in the third row from the stage at the second show in Toronto. My seat was further back on the floor, but i jumped over a barrier and the fans in the third row let me squeeze in with them. We stood and danced through the whole thing screaming oh my god to each other as each song unfolded. There were no setlist spoilers i had no idea about anything i was about to see. Didnt know about expressv yourself being the opener or the stairs rising out of the stage. Imagine how that would have been at age 20 having flown to Toronto from Nova Scotia by yourself. Now multiply that by ten. Thank God I saw this show live.
Chris Ciccone: "Umm...Madonna.. the police are here. If you do the masturbation scene you will be arrested!" Madonna: "What's considered masturbation?" Chris Ciccone" "When you stick your hand in your crotch!"
I paid the $4200 for the VIP show also at The Toronto show 😊!! Met her and felt like I was at a Beetles concert back in the 60s, crying and so nervous. I was ACTUALLY meeting her. She was like, " Awww honey, come here," and hugged me. I asked her to sign my upper chest, she dud ( upon a photo we'd taken) and immediately went to my tattoo guy home, awoke him, and insisted he tattoo this NOW! HEY, I brought him a Tim Hortons coffee and a half hour to wake up at 3:30 am. as the VIP access gave us time back stage with her. I informed her I was an exotic dancer, and she gave me 2 sets of her pasties that she wore on stage. And yes, as we got photos, when I did my show, I showed everyone in perv row the pic, making me more money. Lmao
You're so lucky. I got to see her at both her Toronto Jan 11/12 shows and was blown away. I was too young to see her at the Blonde Ambition tour even though I asked my parents they said no. That's why this time around, I went to see her twice and no one could stop me😊

For me this is her Best tour. Song after song are only hits well known. Almost 100%live with the exception of 2 songs I guess, no screensavers un the back, only a live band, backup singers and danxers, and a delighted crwod only enjoying the show, no cellphones filming. Pure art at it's Best.
@@nicolasmerlin91 express yourself only the version for the turh or dare documentary I guess.because in the yokohama and barcelona shows You can listen her breathing between lines...
Madonna is the blueprint for every single female pop stars today, she set the standard, during The Blonde Ambition Tour Madonna was the biggest female in the world
Oh whatever...she was 90% live..and even if it was less, I dare any of you to dance and perform like this woman did in her prime. She is the QUEEN for a reason. This concert is IT!
Absolutely agree! Not to take anything from vocalists you can "just sing" and command the stage for 90+ minutes, but Blond Ambition showed us what a concert could be. And Madonna never looked back.
Just for the sake of clarification, and facts. Pink has a four octave range, and sings and swings from a trapeze, and does gymnastics; all without missing a beat. She does this to give the best to her fans, as well as proving all the "singers" who claim one can't sing and dance simultaneously. Broadway performers do it all the time. Furthermore, they do it every night, and twice on Sundays. Having said that, I saw Madonna during her first three consecutive concerts. When I was a teenager I saw the Virgin tour, and I was blown away. I saw the next two consecutive tours, including this one, and each one was better than the last. And I was close enough each time to see the sequins on her clothing. Lol! Singing is not her strong suit, but that's not what she's ever been about. She is one hell of a performance artist, and social commentator. To say that singing and dancing at the same time are difficult, is true; however, they can and do happen all of the time!
She only did a complete lip sync on 3 songs ; Express Yourself, Where's The Party and Vogue. Open Your Heart, Papa Don't Preach and Into The Groove only the chorus part, the rest total live.
this and Confessions on a Dancefloor are hands down. 1000%. her best live performances. She is able to blend different genres and create completely new tunes to her music and still make them iconic.
I worked in the Radio business in 1990 and was visiting a client station, WGN, in Chicago. The night before my meeting, another client station KSTP AM/FM in Minneapolis had brought in contest winners and some of their advertisers to attend the concert, and invited me and my coworkers to join them, with amazing seats. We were very lucky: Madonna caught the flu and only performed the night that we attended, and had to come back months later. But you wouldn't know from her performance, which was flawless. Constant motion, and precision, for an hour and 45 minutes. I have never been in a crowd so crazed with excitement as that night. I remember it as if it were yesterday.
I don't think people realize how athletic madonna is. Like she has muscles and her energy is beyond this world. Wasn't she in her early 30s here? She is a true star and has massive stage presence as well!! Nowadays, she has nothing else to prove. I do hope that she releases another album that succeeds and has longevity on the charts. I think that she needs to not try too hard to be "hip" but stay true to how we fell in love with her in the first place. We love her catchy songs, ballads, groovy melodies, and choreography! We want to see her having fun and being free again! Especially, in this time when there is so much depression and deadly viruses going around.
Being 31 or 32 is still young, as it is not middle age. It's not like she was pushing 50, like at Coachella in 2006. She was live, real, had no fillers or surgery and looked and sounded amazing! I don't think Madonna ever needed any work, she was beautiful as she aged.
Madonna may reference her music but she never really goes back. She’s experimental and is no longer doing fan service or needing to do a cash grab. A true artist makes music that’s inside them and it’s up to us whether we like it or not. I haven’t loved everything Madonna’s created, but I love her risk taking creatively and socially and politically. Her newest album, Madame X, is among her best work, honestly.
I had never seen these performances. I watched this last night and I am absolutely shocked at how amazing this is. “Like a virgin” is phenomenal. She’s singing that from her soul. The theatrics. The aura she had. Madonna was IT.
I was at this concert in Houston! It was surreal and by far her most ICONIC tour. Not only did she make her backup singers Donna De Lory and Niki Haris household names. She was the first artist who made her dancers famous as well...They were her posse during this time in history and I'm glad I was able to watch it through "Truth or Dare" and the Houston concert, which was the first city on the American leg of her tour. Thanks for the upload.
i miss the summit i saw during this video people where just sitting in their chairs. i saw whitney houston in 1987 in the summit we were on feet threw the concert
What I love about the filming of this concert is that there are not endless crowd shots. We actually get to watch Madonna and the show without the endless panning over the crowd you see in more recent productions. I wanna see those dance moves man!! ( which I memorised as a boy 30 years ago!!)
Right???? The HBO version I recorded on videotape and played it repeatedly until it wore out. Thinking back on her values and the country today, she was WAY ahead of society on so many levels -- diversity, women's equality, AIDS/LGBTQ issues, artistic expression/freedom of speech, cultural appropriation (no one said much at the time about the "Geisha" period), etc. etc. etc.
We know new New Jersey was professionally filmed but was replaced by nice and we know new New Jersey audio was leaked back in 2015 .......so the video exiats . The reels for new new Jersey was sold on ebay a few years ago for a lot of money.
Into the Groove. ...omg, insane ❣ Her male dance partner is incredible ❣ Havent seen this for many years and it gets even better from an older perspective. Want to go out now and rock it out, but its a freezing cold Wednesday evening in UK..my dog needs walking and I've got my grandson cominig at the weekend. 💕 So I will have to make do....close the curtians...and dance by myself.😂 That'll do very nicely ❣💕💕
Vickie just go for it!!!! We are over here doing the same!!! we were 17 when we saw this show, me & my best mate, nothing has topped it for us, so hell yeah we will be Vogueing our assess off lol!!!!
Madonna is deserving as Queen of Pop and Michael Jackson as King of Pop their moves,unique and graceful,they have their own style and on their prime shines brilliantly😍their music will live forever on our hearts😍😘
30 years ago. Jesus I feel old! Was the first concert I ever went to. Wembley Stadium July 20th. I was sweet 16. Still one of the best live shows I ever saw x
exactly!!! its the most iconic tour, i will never forget any of her shows i have seen, but this is still my favourite. She is a powerhouse of a performer!
For the empteenth time, I'm watching this and my eyes are heart shaped in admiration and love for this woman. I think Madonna has had so much influence on so many uf us out there and we're so lucky and grateful that she's still been sticking around. So sorry she gets so much bad critics for her body, but I'm sure she still has a few rabbits in her cilinder to show us in future. Long live the one and only Queen of Pop, Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone.
Fucking incredible. I saw her in DC for the first time in my life last night. I am so glad we have all these videos. I was born in 1980..and I remembered dancing as a kid to her music. So last night for me was a dream come true. God bless you Madge!
I was born in 1981 and I was obsessed with Madonna as a kid. My dad took me to her blond ambition tour when I was 8! He said I begged him. I remember a lady in front of us told my dad “isn’t she a little young for this” lol! Best memory.
I grew up ⬆️ with that amazing & tantalizing woman whom the world 🌎 will always know as Madonna~ I still remember going to see that movie~>>>> “Desperately Seeking Susan” That was a pretty kool flic back in the day… still is! I went to a drive in theater out in the valley with a friend & we stayed & watched it a second time … 80’s & 90’s were the best!!!!🤩 She was way past her time indeed~ She did her thing and still does to this very day~ SHE IS AGELESS! Better than the finest wine… superb and a one ☝🏼 of a kind yes indeed!! 😁😍😎😇😊 Thank you 🙏🏼 Madonna for making my generation so special~ and me a fan for life~ Please come back to The Great Pacific Northwest ~we miss you !❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️
Netflix tienes que serle un homenaje a Madonna en vida , realizando una serie extraordinaria. Ah la más grande diva de la música Pop. Madonna Ciccone. Te Amooooooo Diva¡¡¡😘😘😘😘
Madonna was a force to be reckoned with. Just a glimpse of her takes your breath away. I don't blame her for wanting to be youthful forever..just look at her!
Despite a few prerecorded sections, and looking back from the age we're in where everyone lip syncs or has a lot of digital tuning, this was a TON of pretty good live singing with this level of dancing and performing. Real excellence in performing here. Iconic time that no one could reach now, sadly. There's no digital live work on her vocals here at ALL, and I don't think most people know exactly how significant that actually is. She's also not got a ton of reverb, etc., if any at all. Just blows me away, her energy level at that time.
I remember at the time she caught a lot of flack for a few "pre-recorded" sections/tracks, too! Doesn't even begin to compare to today's auto-tune and prerecordings.
@@Camille_Anderson TBH -- NO, "EVERYONE" does not. Been to a Pink concert? Or Lady Gaga? Pretty sure Bruno Mars wasn't lip syncing when I saw him. Definitely not the Rolling Stones on their latest tour. -- Yeah, "EVERYONE" does not exempt anyone.
I consider myself supremely lucky to have lived in an era where I got to see Madonna's Blonde Ambition Tour and Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation tour in the same year. This is not meant to stir a comparison/fight between the two. Both women were just killing it at that time and I was glad I witnessed it.
En aquella época ella merecía todos los premios, toda la fama, toda la fortuna... Fue el pico más alto de su carrera artística. No había ni habrá nadie como ella. Es una completa Diosa! ♥️
3:53 The Queen rockin' the iconic Jean-Paul Gaultier cone bustier. Damn. This sh*t is epic-genius. From the dancing, to the performances, to Gaultier's designs..... Nice to see the pony tail before she switched to the curly mid-tour. The 'Express Yourself' entrance is amazing, and probably my favorite concern footage of all time. Just awesome. I miss those times.
@@s.e.landeros280 I think you mean "collaborated", unless you mean that they confirmed each other's story. ;-) But yes, the tour was absolutely sublime!
I was 15 yrs old when my lovely uncle and aunt maid me the surprise to see her on the the stage. It Paris at the Bercy stage. (I'm french) So much good memories and thank you for remind me that
I saw in it Los Angeles with Technotronic opening. Who opened in Houston? And how was the crowd? The L.A. crowd was electric. And if you Truth Or Dare, the section when the celebrities show up backstage was from the L.A. show.
You know MA I honestly don’t recall. I do recall we weren’t on time and just made it before she went on as we drove from austin. I can remember other openers like the breakfast club and the beastie boys!
Ladies and gentlemen the most iconic opening to a show ever! Madonns really is an artistic genious! I love watching old footage of Madonna live and still listen to her classic material from her early 80s up until 2005's Confessions album and that Tour just blows my mind today as does The Blond Ambition Tour 90 Nowadays her material is just ok and Madonna seems more focased on social media which is cool but she really was a force of nature and deserves her Queen Of Pop title. Simply an Icon! 👑
This will forever be Madonna most sublime concert! Madonna at her best, with the most marvelous dancers, backup singers, her brother's sets, the costuming, choreography and Madonna's beautiful voice, face and body, her total performance was breathtaking! The ultimate set list, The ultimate film to go with it,Truth or Dare! Blonde Ambition indeed! MADONNA! ✝
Madonna has lasted 35 years at the top of her game,,, no one can come close to what she's achieved,,, she paved the way for the famale artist we see these days,,,,, I seen this show at Wembley stadium London,,,, fantastic show
CHERISH in my opinion is among the perfect songs that have no weakness. Catchy melody, beautiful Vocal harmonies,Delightful music, Strong Chorus and with such depth!
Great concert! I went to both shows when she was here..Friday and Saturday nights....awe i was a freshman in high school then....good times . I was CRAZY about her. 🎶🎶🎶🎶👍
The final keep or together IS great! Blond ambition tour : A piece of art, the show girl at the top! Madonna is with Michael Jackson the biggest stars !
Great to watch the show again. I saw it at Wembley stadium July 1990. Shame her mic wasn't working all the time when she spoke it ruined it as she had some great banter. Still her best tour.
we were born the same year, all her hit songs from like a virgin,to material girl...even up to this date-2020 i consider this Blond Ambition tour the Best for me, especially the finale “keep it together”...Bravo Madonna😊👍❗️
Thirty years ago. I don’t feel old. I feel grateful to have had the opportunity to have the Blonde Ambition tour run through my veins. All of Madonna’s tours are epic. Blonde Ambition and The Confessions Tour are the top two. Blonde Ambition was about power. Confessions was about dancing. Power and dancing; there’s nothing better.
30 years after and I am watching the Blond Ambition Tour, 30 years after and I feel excited for this incredible show... Madonna knew exactly how to make pop and entertain people... She's the only one... QUEEN OF POP and still counting... thaks for the video! I appreciate!

What difference does it make concerning her age?
@@josemanuellavado70 This is actually one of the few dates when she sings it live with the track at a low volume on the background.

She is one hell of a performance artist, and social commentator. To say that singing and dancing at the same time are difficult, is true; however, they can and do happen all of the time!
She only did a complete lip sync on 3 songs ; Express Yourself, Where's The Party and Vogue. Open Your Heart, Papa Don't Preach and Into The Groove only the chorus part, the rest total live.
Right! Her dancing alone is extremely difficult plus singing! There’s nobody like her today.
@@michaeljensen5020 she is a performer, not just a singer, when you learn the difference you can give your old stupid opinion

@@ivansantan9301 It was all a scam ! YOU GOT SUCKERED.
I miss this Madonna 🥺😭
I miss CHER from 1973 so; I hear ya !
2020 and She is the only one forever♥️♥️♥️
It's amazing because we can hear clearly the voice of Madonna. She's not lip syncing in Express yourself here. Madonna deserves more credit.
With the vigorous dancing of the number, a backtrack was used in the background but yes, here she uses all her vocals!
And wheres The party too😳
this and Confessions on a Dancefloor are hands down. 1000%. her best live performances. She is able to blend different genres and create completely new tunes to her music and still make them iconic.
could not agree more. was front row at her confessions tour and just marvel at her artistry and her reinventive powers.
Confessions was a good show but like 75% of it was lip synched. Yet, more of Sticky and Sweet was sung live than Confessions.
Yep I do agree
EXOTICA is to date my favorite of her later compilations. I flew to Australia in '93 to see it. She made 92 a great year for Madonna fans.
@@OriginalSilver416EXOTICA????
Nicki and Donna made her songs sound full and rich along with Madonnas voice.
I worked in the Radio business in 1990 and was visiting a client station, WGN, in Chicago. The night before my meeting, another client station KSTP AM/FM in Minneapolis had brought in contest winners and some of their advertisers to attend the concert, and invited me and my coworkers to join them, with amazing seats. We were very lucky: Madonna caught the flu and only performed the night that we attended, and had to come back months later. But you wouldn't know from her performance, which was flawless. Constant motion, and precision, for an hour and 45 minutes. I have never been in a crowd so crazed with excitement as that night. I remember it as if it were yesterday.
What Madonna liked was her dancers, who are always on point and on top of their technique .ruclips.net/video/1eGSV4v1fI4/видео.htmlsi=YGu7EtJUmDXtK7kx
her most iconic tour
.TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU.
the game changer for everyone
Demonic
@@EdjeMr1975 artists are here to disturb the peace
Can we just RESPECT her bangin body.? Sis was the absolute fittest and gorgeous as EVA!
I remember watching this live on HBO in 1990. The transition from Like a Virgin to Like a Prayer shock me big time and even scared me a little.
This HBO special was legendary at the time...EPIC. I remember it like it was yesterday. The WORLD was watching!
I don't think people realize how athletic madonna is. Like she has muscles and her energy is beyond this world. Wasn't she in her early 30s here? She is a true star and has massive stage presence as well!! Nowadays, she has nothing else to prove. I do hope that she releases another album that succeeds and has longevity on the charts. I think that she needs to not try too hard to be "hip" but stay true to how we fell in love with her in the first place. We love her catchy songs, ballads, groovy melodies, and choreography! We want to see her having fun and being free again! Especially, in this time when there is so much depression and deadly viruses going around.
Mike BlueT You do realize she has a new album out right now, and has been touring up until corona shut down her show??
#madamx
She was 31/32
Being 31 or 32 is still young, as it is not middle age. It's not like she was pushing 50, like at Coachella in 2006. She was live, real, had no fillers or surgery and looked and sounded amazing! I don't think Madonna ever needed any work, she was beautiful as she aged.
Madonna may reference her music but she never really goes back. She’s experimental and is no longer doing fan service or needing to do a cash grab. A true artist makes music that’s inside them and it’s up to us whether we like it or not. I haven’t loved everything Madonna’s created, but I love her risk taking creatively and socially and politically. Her newest album, Madame X, is among her best work, honestly.
Shes very athletic indeed!!
Madonna. One of the best Entertainers during my teenage years...Getting older is strange.
I had never seen these performances. I watched this last night and I am absolutely shocked at how amazing this is. “Like a virgin” is phenomenal. She’s singing that from her soul. The theatrics. The aura she had. Madonna was IT.
It's not as slick as the later shows but it's so full of raw energy. The fact that she could dance like that and still hold a tune is amazing.
I was at this concert in Houston! It was surreal and by far her most ICONIC tour. Not only did she make her backup singers Donna De Lory and Niki Haris household names. She was the first artist who made her dancers famous as well...They were her posse during this time in history and I'm glad I was able to watch it through "Truth or Dare" and the Houston concert, which was the first city on the American leg of her tour. Thanks for the upload.
i miss the summit i saw during this video people where just sitting in their chairs. i saw whitney houston in 1987 in the summit we were on feet threw the concert
Thank you! I've been wondering for decades how her backup singers were called.
@@tsancio ficha técnica de todas as turnes tem os nomes das vozes de apoio.
@@thiagoaugustocoous Donna De Lory & Niki Haris
As they should be household names. They were doing most of the vocals and also quite a bit of choreography.
What I love about the filming of this concert is that there are not endless crowd shots. We actually get to watch Madonna and the show without the endless panning over the crowd you see in more recent productions. I wanna see those dance moves man!! ( which I memorised as a boy 30 years ago!!)
Right???? The HBO version I recorded on videotape and played it repeatedly until it wore out. Thinking back on her values and the country today, she was WAY ahead of society on so many levels -- diversity, women's equality, AIDS/LGBTQ issues, artistic expression/freedom of speech, cultural appropriation (no one said much at the time about the "Geisha" period), etc. etc. etc.
She had so much energy
This was her BEST TOUR! Her singers are amazing, her dancers are outstanding and she never sounded better ...She looked amazing!
I was in the audience that day in Houston.
This woman inspires me so much man
ICONIC HAIR, ICONIC OUTFIT, ICONIC DANCE, ICONIC MUSIC, ICONIC ARTIST 🥳
That energy this woman has, and still has! Amazing concert and performer!❌❌❌
Come on now it's the 30th anniversary of blond ambition tour we need to ve seeing something special this year.... Come on!!!
This is houston with dallas professional sound! I want new jersey!
@@feliciaroberts4880 absolutely agree we know the professional footage exists.
Love to see Wembley...looking by the pictures it was epic!
We know new New Jersey was professionally filmed but was replaced by nice and we know new New Jersey audio was leaked back in 2015 .......so the video exiats . The reels for new new Jersey was sold on ebay a few years ago for a lot of money.
@@feliciaroberts4880 BLOND AMBITION TOUR NEW JERSEY FULL VIDEO HAS BEEN LEAKED ON RUclips TODAY 😁
She doesn’t always have to move and dance…..she has good songs.
This woman gives everything in every show, pure energy and talented. She deserves the title of queen!
💖 "Wonderful music!!!I love pop queen 👑 MADONNA 👑 video!!!"💖
Into the Groove. ...omg, insane ❣ Her male dance partner is incredible ❣ Havent seen this for many years and it gets even better from an older perspective. Want to go out now and rock it out, but its a freezing cold Wednesday evening in UK..my dog needs walking and I've got my grandson cominig at the weekend. 💕 So I will have to make do....close the curtians...and dance by myself.😂 That'll do very nicely ❣💕💕
Vickie just go for it!!!! We are over here doing the same!!! we were 17 when we saw this show, me & my best mate, nothing has topped it for us, so hell yeah we will be Vogueing our assess off lol!!!!
@@Camille_Anderson 😅 🎶🎵 ✌ 💕...fabulous!!
Madonna is deserving as Queen of Pop and Michael Jackson as King of Pop their moves,unique and graceful,they have their own style and on their prime shines brilliantly😍their music will live forever on our hearts😍😘
30 years ago. Jesus I feel old!
Was the first concert I ever went to. Wembley Stadium July 20th. I was sweet 16.
Still one of the best live shows I ever saw x
THE mother of all pop concerts if not all concerts!
The best superstar and performance of all times
I was at this show. This brings back wonderful memories!!!
Jealous
What year was this?
@@MrTREYNA31 1990
The blond ambitions tour was the best musical tour in her entire career
Omar Alqiwani not really
exactly!!! its the most iconic tour, i will never forget any of her shows i have seen, but this is still my favourite. She is a powerhouse of a performer!
This tour is best in history.Madonna's choreography,energy,talent,power=big respect !!!!!👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
She was the first artist to put one a concert of this magnitude.
The Party is on this video. Sadly I never gone to her party.
No screens, just screams. Incredible show, and timeless.
Madonna's serving grace, beauty and power during her prime. I love her❤
Her dancing is just incredible
Insanely talented. Insanely difficult show. No one could do this today.
For the empteenth time, I'm watching this and my eyes are heart shaped in admiration and love for this woman. I think Madonna has had so much influence on so many uf us out there and we're so lucky and grateful that she's still been sticking around. So sorry she gets so much bad critics for her body, but I'm sure she still has a few rabbits in her cilinder to show us in future. Long live the one and only Queen of Pop, Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone.
I love you Madonna. This show brings back wonderful memories.
The Queen of Pop, forever!!!
Fucking incredible. I saw her in DC for the first time in my life last night. I am so glad we have all these videos. I was born in 1980..and I remembered dancing as a kid to her music. So last night for me was a dream come true. God bless you Madge!
I was born in 1981 and I was obsessed with Madonna as a kid. My dad took me to her blond ambition tour when I was 8! He said I begged him. I remember a lady in front of us told my dad “isn’t she a little young for this” lol! Best memory.
I grew up ⬆️ with that amazing & tantalizing woman whom the world 🌎 will always know as Madonna~ I still remember going to see that movie~>>>>
“Desperately Seeking Susan”
That was a pretty kool flic back in the day… still is! I went to a drive in theater out in the valley with a friend & we stayed & watched it a second time … 80’s & 90’s were the best!!!!🤩
She was way past her time indeed~ She did her thing and still does to this very day~ SHE IS AGELESS! Better than the finest wine… superb and a one ☝🏼 of a kind yes indeed!! 😁😍😎😇😊
Thank you 🙏🏼 Madonna for making my generation so special~ and me a fan for life~
Please come back to The Great Pacific Northwest ~we miss you !❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️🎵❤️
Netflix tienes que serle un homenaje a Madonna en vida , realizando una serie extraordinaria.
Ah la más grande diva de la música Pop.
Madonna Ciccone.
Te Amooooooo Diva¡¡¡😘😘😘😘
Madonna was a force to be reckoned with. Just a glimpse of her takes your breath away. I don't blame her for wanting to be youthful forever..just look at her!
Despite a few prerecorded sections, and looking back from the age we're in where everyone lip syncs or has a lot of digital tuning, this was a TON of pretty good live singing with this level of dancing and performing. Real excellence in performing here. Iconic time that no one could reach now, sadly. There's no digital live work on her vocals here at ALL, and I don't think most people know exactly how significant that actually is. She's also not got a ton of reverb, etc., if any at all. Just blows me away, her energy level at that time.
I remember at the time she caught a lot of flack for a few "pre-recorded" sections/tracks, too! Doesn't even begin to compare to today's auto-tune and prerecordings.
@@beaellie9766 everyone lip syncs now, tbh.
@@Camille_Anderson TBH -- NO, "EVERYONE" does not. Been to a Pink concert? Or Lady Gaga? Pretty sure Bruno Mars wasn't lip syncing when I saw him. Definitely not the Rolling Stones on their latest tour. -- Yeah, "EVERYONE" does not exempt anyone.
A few?
yeah? only a few of the songs. Majority of it was actually live. @@SP-fw1xe
My first Madonna concert. It was great
In my world we are still in 1990 and the BAT is not yet finished ^^ thank you for all these good huge memories 😘👍
Jupiter Le Fec same hehehe
I consider myself supremely lucky to have lived in an era where I got to see Madonna's Blonde Ambition Tour and Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation tour in the same year. This is not meant to stir a comparison/fight between the two. Both women were just killing it at that time and I was glad I witnessed it.
En aquella época ella merecía todos los premios, toda la fama, toda la fortuna... Fue el pico más alto de su carrera artística. No había ni habrá nadie como ella. Es una completa Diosa! ♥️
Ahora es viejita
Ahora está lady GaGa
@@lucasmora5275
Lady Gaga?
Jajaja eso es para viejitos.
Tengo 19 años y créeme
Nadie de mi generación escuchaba Lady Plagios
Sólo los gays viejos .
Lady who?
Ohh esperen lloraré,no me gusta lady GaGa pero es una buena cantante,y yo no idolatro a nadie,par de arenosos
3:53 The Queen rockin' the iconic Jean-Paul Gaultier cone bustier. Damn. This sh*t is epic-genius. From the dancing, to the performances, to Gaultier's designs..... Nice to see the pony tail before she switched to the curly mid-tour. The 'Express Yourself' entrance is amazing, and probably my favorite concern footage of all time. Just awesome. I miss those times.
Actually Jean Paul & Madonna collaborated . He said this himself👍
@@s.e.landeros280 I think you mean "collaborated", unless you mean that they confirmed each other's story. ;-) But yes, the tour was absolutely sublime!
Awe . . Thanks 🙃
I think Madonna misses these times, lulz.
She danced her ass off on Where's The Party 18:45. She gets bonus points for jumping to the ladder steps backwards. My God!
I was 15 yrs old when my lovely uncle and aunt maid me the surprise to see her on the the stage. It Paris at the Bercy stage. (I'm french) So much good memories and thank you for remind me that
I was at this concert in Houston at the Astrodome the summer of ‘86!
Can’t believe it’s been that long!
this tour was during March to August 1990
She is phenomenonal, I just love her energy ... spellbinding
I saw this live in Houston opening night in US. Still my #1. But love all her tours.
I saw in it Los Angeles with Technotronic opening. Who opened in Houston? And how was the crowd? The L.A. crowd was electric. And if you Truth Or Dare, the section when the celebrities show up backstage was from the L.A. show.
You know MA I honestly don’t recall. I do recall we weren’t on time and just made it before she went on as we drove from austin. I can remember other openers like the breakfast club and the beastie boys!
@@christopherwheeler3409 the show I saw was on Saturday I believe and there was no opening act. It was at the Summit
@@m.c.a3121 Yep, no opening act and The Summit is now a megachurch...lol
mikejrexec yikes.
The BEST TOUR EVER!!!
Saw it live in 1990- so great- we all dressed up like Madonna, even my friend Steve- her best concert ever!
Ladies and gentlemen the most iconic opening to a show ever! Madonns really is an artistic genious! I love watching old footage of Madonna live and still listen to her classic material from her early 80s up until 2005's Confessions album and that Tour just blows my mind today as does The Blond Ambition Tour 90 Nowadays her material is just ok and Madonna seems more focased on social media which is cool but she really was a force of nature and deserves her Queen Of Pop title. Simply an Icon! 👑
This will forever be Madonna most sublime concert! Madonna at her best, with the most marvelous dancers, backup singers, her brother's sets, the costuming, choreography and Madonna's beautiful voice, face and body, her total performance was breathtaking! The ultimate set list, The ultimate film to go with it,Truth or Dare! Blonde Ambition indeed! MADONNA! ✝
Oh Father! I love that song and video so much!
Madonna has lasted 35 years at the top of her game,,, no one can come close to what she's achieved,,, she paved the way for the famale artist we see these days,,,,, I seen this show at Wembley stadium London,,,, fantastic show
facts!!!
38 years. "Everybody" was released in 1982.
CHERISH in my opinion is among the perfect songs that have no weakness. Catchy melody, beautiful Vocal harmonies,Delightful music, Strong Chorus and with such depth!
Great concert! I went to both shows when she was here..Friday and Saturday nights....awe i was a freshman in high school then....good times . I was CRAZY about her. 🎶🎶🎶🎶👍
I was there! I loved how she opened the tour in Houston💙
The final keep or together IS great! Blond ambition tour : A piece of art, the show girl at the top! Madonna is with Michael Jackson the biggest stars !
Sin dudas uno de los mejores recitales de Madonna, la performance, coreografía, vestuario, ambientación... De pie! Vida larga a la única 👑💗
Such a great entertainer....And she sounds great live
iconic and amazing .
Great to watch the show again. I saw it at Wembley stadium July 1990.
Shame her mic wasn't working all the time when she spoke it ruined it as she had some great banter. Still her best tour.
Madonna is definitely a legend! But I think this was her best period, full of art, innovation and good music!
Love Madonna miss her.
we were born the same year, all her hit songs from like a virgin,to material girl...even up to this date-2020 i consider this Blond Ambition tour the Best for me, especially the finale “keep it together”...Bravo Madonna😊👍❗️
Saw her in Madame X Tour in 2019, it was amazing, just like the album, very rich musically and lyrically. And will see her soon in Celebration Tour.
Это уже совсем другой человек. Очень жаль 😢😢😢
Madame x tour es increíble❤
This women will always be a one of a kind queen
I just really love her personality
Madonnavirus is so powerful and lovely 🔥❤.
There is only one Queen. What a great dancer she was!
Thirty years ago. I don’t feel old. I feel grateful to have had the opportunity to have the Blonde Ambition tour run through my veins. All of Madonna’s tours are epic. Blonde Ambition and The Confessions Tour are the top two. Blonde Ambition was about power. Confessions was about dancing. Power and dancing; there’s nothing better.
❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤ 😊
To me, that's her BEST concert to date !
30 years after and I am watching the Blond Ambition Tour, 30 years after and I feel excited for this incredible show... Madonna knew exactly how to make pop and entertain people... She's the only one... QUEEN OF POP and still counting... thaks for the video! I appreciate!
