MADONNA REACTION LOVE DON'T LIVE ANYMORE '84 (WOW! UNEXPECTED) | EMPRESS REACTION TO 80s POP MUSIC

[@alexanderdiaz1]

Most people don't know that Madonna sang this song in tribute to her mother, whom she lost at the tender age of five years old. Her vocals are so raw and emotional. You start to understand her pain while singing this song in the studio. The gasp and crying towards the end of the song, reveals a very much vulnerable Madonna. The pain and desperation of losing a mother so young and wanting to be sheltered by her. Remember, Madonna was only 23 or 24 years old when she recorded this song. The hurt was still there. I'm sure as the years have gone by the pain has lessen but you never get over losing your mother. I understand. I lost my mother when I was 14yrs old of breast cancer, during the time this album was released, and I still get very emotional when I think about my mom, and how I would grow up without her or get to enjoy her company as an adult.

[@jjmm9066]

This was a very brave vocal approach which we have rarely seen since.Madonna’s lower and higher registers each have unique charms. She must have really believed in this song to want to do this.

[@EmpressReacts]

Exactly! I'm like, wow, i didnt know she could do all that!😄 then she recorded it twice and fans tells me she still does it live! This song has a life of its own

[@autumnleaves240]

Although she is mostly known for her pop and dance songs...IMHO there are few singers who can emote heartbreak better than Madonna

[@EmpressReacts]

interesting! i think i want to explore more of her catalog. i wasn't expecting this raw performance

[@kristianberg4264]

@@EmpressReacts - Actually, mesmerizing is an understatement, this performance of Sooner Or Later, was a Broadway performance . ;)

[@Marc-zi5cq]

This was 1984, her voice imo improved and matured alot in the 90s where imo was her peak around the Ray Of Light era in the late 90s but this vocal performance proves she's always had it right from the start and even her more girlish young vocals still slay. She's so underrated as a vocalist. She can definitely sing!

[@EmpressReacts]

I'm learning that! 😆 I was slick doubting her ability before I heard the song. Def earned my respect💯

[@baritoneblazzin1965]

So true.. And ver voice got even better when she had undergone vocal training for Evita.. It really showed om her Ray Of Light album- particularly in the song Frozen

[@dakstarky]

My dad was really into R&B and the used to play the original song on his radio station ...he really liked Madonna's take on the song...

[@EmpressReacts]

Its very good 🔥🔥🔥

[@petersavieri]

👄🎙 Revisiting this reaction because I love Madonna’s version of this song. So true your comparison of Miss Ross and Madonna. Madonna herself has mentioned how much she admired Diana as a vocalist and a strong woman in the industry. It’s true of course that there are smoother, fuller, more effortless vocalists, but with those singers there’s something of the spectacle to the listening experience (to mix metaphors a little 👁👂). Singers like Madonna, where you feel the hunger and muscular PUSH in the voice, these are the vocalists that take us along WITH them for the ride. It’s less of an audience experience of wonderment and more a sense that we’re involved in the drama of the song and singer. I’d compare it to the dramatic arc for a film character. If the protagonist has all they need at the beginning of the story, there’s nothing to magnetise us to the plot, but if we feel some struggle and ultimate triumph, we’re right there with them. There are truly exceptional vocalists who do this too, like Streisand’s dramatic emotional truth, but these are very rare and even then I feel there’s something distant about the sheer virtuosic quality of the voice. It’s wonderful but sometimes you want to feel the earth under a singer’s feet. Madonna is the most successful female pop vocalist in history, and her flaws have been as much a part of that success as her talents. A lot of aspects of her career have been like that. You have this striking, but not conventionally pretty, girl from a humble background who took her raw dance talent and even rawer voice, and marshalled it all into a singular iconic story that seduced the world. Of course we can’t forget her intellect, wit, artistic taste, business acumen, rock solid work ethic and incredible pop instinct as a writer, collaborator and producer. But if she’d had stunning show-off vocals from the start, I don’t think she’d have that relatable tough street appeal, that cred she’s never fully lost, and (both vocally and narratively) we wouldn’t feel so involved in the RISE.

[@EmpressReacts]

Exactly!

[@RhiannaBarr]

Madonna literally burst into tears at the end...she got emotional singing this song...producer thought it suited the song and left it in

[@moonstone1159]

Her ballads are fan favorites. She puts lots of emotion in her interpretations. She has so many, but Take a Bow and it's sequel You'll See are some of her best ballads. (There are videos for both.)

[@EmpressReacts]

Adding those both to the list! This performance surprised me

[@sillywilly7887]

@@EmpressReacts Also you should check out "Live To Tell", "Oh Father", "This Used To Be My Playground", "Bad Girl"... Oh my, she has released so many beautiful ballads. Check out also "Something To Remember" - a collection of her ballads :)

@@sillywilly7887 thanks for the recommendation!

[@robsmith2647]

She has a whole CD of ballads.

[@graphiquejack]

This is one of her best ballads, vocally, for sure. Frozen is, in my opinion, her best ballad. It's literally perfection. But she's done so many epic ballads. Secret, Take A Bow, You'll See, Masterpiece, Ghosttown, Power of Goodbye, Gone, even Crazy for You, which is not my favourite, but I know is a fan favourite.

[@terrystorey]

This is one of my fav vocals of Madonna's along with Rescue Me. I love when she sings in her lower register.

[@EmpressReacts]

💯 i didn't even know she could sing like this😂

[@slimlouis6441]

Rescue Me is flawless vocals.

[@albertoolarte206]

“EVITA” soundtrack for the movie of the same title where she won best actress at the golden globe. There’s a lot of good songs that challenged her vocal prowess. You must love me was an original song in that movie that awarded by Oscar Academy as the best song of the year from a movie. She really worked hard for that movie since almost all the dialogue were done in singing. Good job girl for this journey with Madonna. I’ve seen 5 of her live concert performances and gee incomparable. The energy and her dedication is beyond human, for the sake of her artistic presentation. Not the greatest voice, okay granting, but who among the female singers in history sold more records than her? Each one of us can sing, there are some exceptional voices in the world, but what’s beautiful for me might not beautiful to you. Now, since her music sold more than those belters and divas that can hit the highest note you can never imagine, there’s something in Madonna’s voice that is uniquely hers alone. She’s a storyteller, people can relate to her songs and loving it. For me, she sings from the heart and very truthful about life, and issues in the world. A visionary artist, she’s always ahead of her time. Bashed, called names, but guess what? She’s still here and people can’t stop talking about her. Every time she’s into a controversy, and when the people become so obsessed about her, she’s already gone and another envelope is opened. She’s the greatest chameleon of the 20th century. Next! Hahahaa keep reacting girl! We luv it!

[@EmpressReacts]

🗣🗣🗣yaaaaas!!! come thru with this wonderful comment! i can tell how much you admire her❤

[@hoxtondean9855]

I went to see the Rebel Heart Tour concert in London in 2016 - and she sang this live - she sounded amazing, and with an appropriately dramatic context during the performance. She coupled it with a new song called HeartBreak City - it worked very well.

[@EmpressReacts]

Wow, so she must really like this song! She re-recorded it and as late as 2016 it was in her set list. Coool

[@felixmeow660]

I saw the Rebel Heart tour in Miami and when she did this song everyone started screaming.. unfortunately it was cut from the official DVD of the show

[@mizwilsontoyou1046]

Empress, I swear you teach me stuff! I never knew Madonna covered Rolls Royce! Now I'm a old Motown head, so this doesn't even compare, but as you said a good effort by the Material Girl

[@antoniobeardall6520]

I believe when she sang this song, she was really emotional, and the gasps at the end were also her crying in the booth as she sang this.

[@EmpressReacts]

I can believe that! This track is really raw

[@Truthteller58-z3c]

This Madonnas best vocal performance ever .

[@jasonstrader3942]

I saw an interview by someone who was in the studio when she laid the track for this and by the time she was done, she was crying. They say she got totally caught up in the emotions of the song.

[@EmpressReacts]

[@EmpressReacts]

Thank u! Hope u subb

[@briandubois-gilbert8182]

I think this 1984 version of this song by Madonna was the first ballad she’s recorded (included in her Like A Virgin album) and one of the rare covers she’s recorded-this one of the original 1978 release by the soul/R&B group Rose Royce performed by female lead singer Gwen Dickey. This song was a personal favorite of pre-fame Madonna as the sentiments of the ballad resonated deeply with her feelings after her beloved mother prematurely died at an early age when she was age 5 which would haunt her, and her relationship with her father became estranged after he married their housekeeper. Nile Rodgers, who worked with Madonna to produce 8 of the 9 songs on Like A Virgin album, recalled in an interview that Madonna “was overcome by emotions and she started crying” near the end of the song during the actual recording of it with a live orchestra and that he decided to leave that memorable moment in the record. In 1985 Madonna recorded her first original ballad, Crazy For You, for the movie, Desperately Seeking Susan, which song she’d performed live during her Virgin Tour with such emotive intensity and soulful style similar to her earlier version of Love Don’t Live Here Anymore. Madonna reworked and remixed Love Don’t Live Here…in the version she included in her 1995 ballads compilation album, Something To Remember. She made a music video of this reworked version in early 1996, shot in an abandoned downtown hotel in Buenos Aires during a break in the filming of Evita. I love both ‘84 and ‘95 versions of this ballad and her live concert performance of it during the 2015-16 Rebel Heart tour. I enjoyed your wonderful reaction to this video.
