If we are in 2022 and we are still talking about Madonna, since 40 years ago, who is the QUEEN OF POP, the most successful and influential female artist in history, and the woman who has the most successful tours in history. Could Christina Aguilera pull off something like this? Not even with "the best voice" could! Whitney Houston couldn't, because she reallyis the best voice in the world, much less could Christina Aguilera, who has been totally irrelevant since her second album. Madonna there is only one!

From what I understand, she was GOING TO include it in her Girlie Show Tour but at the last minute she decided to leave it out and instead included In This Life.

MadiSon5000 it's only cause she won't play any song from the 90s anymore

[@marklulrich]

The Burn Book~That’s not true at all. Her last tour 2015-‘16’s “Rebel Heart World Tour” she did several songs from the 90’s including off the same album “Erotica”~”Deeper and Deeper”...also “Vogue” and several stops she did “Take a Bow”(and other random songs from that decade), all are from the ‘1990’s! I’ve been very fortunate to see her, in person all of her live performances except the 1st, ‘Virgin Tour’. From ‘87’s “Who’s That Girl World Tour” forward I’ve seen them all, and she always sings her hits from throughout her record breaking career, some tours a bit more than others, but she doesn’t forget that “we” love to hear it all, old, new and everything in between!

[@Fakename70]

MadiSon5000 Forgotten? No way! Incredibly underrated album!

[@Chawie79]

Madonna's music catalog, her music videos, her live performances from all the early ones and current ones, her documentaries, her films. All of her work share a certain color of that time, there's joy to be who we want to be without regrets. Her human experience, her talent continues to be seen, heard, read, and experienced. She takes you to a place that can make you uncomfortable yet it's having an open mind to her artistic expression that life isn't perfect. Let's just dance, and sing. Get up and do your thing!

[@deplerkim3959]

This is such a haunting and beautiful song. Madonna is not the strongest vocalist, but oddly it works in this songs favour. There is such emotional depth to her performance, and her vocals fit perfectly with the subject matter of this song. I cant imagine anyone else doing it better.

[@johnwihebrink4017]

She sounds good for being live as well as this is pre-Evita singing lessons and this song is very difficult to sing. She looks good. I remember when this aired.

[@ronaldrodriguez9601]

Very excited to see this just a couple of years ago!!!!

[@Riccardoderek]

Around 1993/1994 her voice sounded perfect! I definitely think her voice was better before the singing lessons. Her singing was more honest, her voice was more "black" and she didn't try to sing with the proper technique. She just sounded like Madonna! Stronger, unique and charismatic.

[@thisiangarcia]

Riccardoderek I have the same theory. Her Evita voice lessons destroyed her signature sound and timbre. For me, her pre-Evita voice was much stronger and richer.

[@cecilymacnamara1228]

Gonna say what I want and it's that Madonna has an exquisite recording voice. Live it is variable but always soulful. Big, powerful, beat-you-into-submission voices are ten a penny and usually emotionally bankrupt. Madonna's voice is unique and instantly recognisable and she can go from ballads to pop to jazz. She always serves the music rather than doing what most people do which is using the music to showcase their "vocal brilliance".

[@kendolldamon]

thats right. Madonna is versatile. Her catalog of music consists of R&B, Pop, jazz, gospel, hip hop, electronic, dance, folk, and she has done all of those genres with excellence! especially Pop and R&B in my opinion

[@prophetmadonna3744]

madonna is not someone you can find in an American Idol or Norwegian or Chinese Idol audition. She is not someone like Mariah who can be mimic by hundreds of Lady Boys in Manila or Celine Dion, which can copied by little girls with lungs of steel in some Asian rice field. Madonna has a very beautiful voice, live or recorded, Madonna's voice has character and its theatrical. A great voice is not defined by PITCH... Voice Quality is not all about Bon Jovi or Kelly Clarkson screaming. I became a huge even before I ever saw how she looked like. When I first images of Madonna in the 1980's I never thought she was pretty. But she was most magnetic artist in the era. Brooke Shields and Phoebe Cates were pretty. But Madonna was all Voice, till Dita came and Madonna was forever the queen of pretty.
