A beautiful song and stunning video!

This Ray of light performance is the definition of perfection. The song is a 10, her vocals are a 10, her movements are a 10, her confidence is a 1000. She knocked it out the stadium with this one

What I always think about this performance is how the audience, the band and Madonna became one. Madonna has a very strong magnetism and stage presence and here we can see that. It's like everyone there is in a spaceship traveling through the galaxies… Whenever I want to recharge my energies I watch this performance!!! Thanks for the react.

cool. I was going to say the same thing. I remember reading the reviews of the album Ray of Light and they universally noted the new beauty and better tone to her voice PLUS, per usual, she was integrating the hippest newest dance music trend EDM hence William Orbit as producer. I SO SO SOOOO with they would team up again.

A part of me always wishes she would've continued with the vocal training in the years after Evita. I don't think we would've had performances such as she's been giving in recent times, and probably would've had more of these gems.

I was there. 5th row, stage right. Mind blowing. She performed it twice.

One of the best vocals from Madonna is Sooner or later Oscar's... She was amazing... Her voice was amazing... And she was extremely gorgeous that day...

Probably one of her very BEST live performances of that song. She, and the entire studio audience were feeling the energy of it. I still have it recorded first run on VHS. Pure nostalgia to me.

There’s a lot of debate on Madonna’s best live vocals on a television performance and this one always takes the cake for me, even over her Oscar performance of “Sooner Or Later”. She’s performed Ray Of Light a few times in concert since but she always sings it in a lower key. This was the top of her vocal career

@RyanStorey1231

I think this was one of the only times Madonna performed this song in its original key. This leads me to believe that Madonna was really pushing her vocals and singing way out of her range. You can sort of hear it strain in the original track, but it still sounded impressive. But it's probably difficult for her to replicate live. It's probably more dangerous for her voice, too.

Should've been a #1 single. One of her best vocal live performances

Madonna just killed it. Period.

There’s nothing to dislike about this performance - it’s AMAZING!! One of her best, if not the best live vocal performance by Madonna. To my knowledge she’s never really attempted the album version in this key after this performance. The other live versions of this song are still great, but this one is an A++++++

A remarkable and epic moment of her carrier. Amazing vocals of a True Goddess!

One of her best live vocal performances! She killed it.

25 years later and this performance still gives me chills. Truly is no surprise to me why she is still the best selling female musical recording artist in history.

That's what gets my back up when people say she can't sing! She's amazing and will always be the best female artist of all time

MADONNA IS THE FUCKING QUEEN OF MUSIC !!!

fun fact so this was her second take which Oprah had never before allowed as Madonna was so nervous. Madonna came out to the audience and said my manager said i need to do that one more time. Are you guys okay with it? the crowd cheered.

Knowing how she is afraid about this small performances, live shows, awards... She is always very nervous 'cause is not a enviroment where she have total control, this performance is just AMAZING! You can even seen how she was nervous at the first but I think Oprah and the audience helped a lot, she is very conected with the public energy. Man... I just love her, wish I could come to a live performance...

This was her best performance of this song by a long shot! It was spot on. Her future performances were in a lower key and not as good. This was epic! 👐🏼

I love this live version more than the album version!!! The performance is all stripped down. No set. No backup dancers. Just Madonna and her hair. Yes her hair was like another performer, lol! She's so beautiful. Man, this performance should have won an award or something!! Brava Madonna!!!!

Fuck that was amazing performance. Her vocal was on fire 🔥

I’m a huge Madonna fan and for me her live tours our everything . 2001 was her next tour “World Drowned Tour” in that tour she performs ray of light tracks and Music Album tracks. Hope you cover the tours soon. Her tours are iconic! You see why she’s who she is .

THIS. This right here has been my favorite live performance of hers, since the moment this aired. I’ve seen her live at each tour from 1990 to 2015, and this tops them all for me. Such an incredible vocal performance from her, never fails to give me goosebumps….especially that last “she’s got herself a univerrrrrrrse” ❤️❤️❤️

Tears of proudness watching you react to this legendary performance.

That was incredible! She was on fire there. Her voice was powerful and you could tell it was also years after her vocal training for Evita. It was fresh and the training was evident in this performance.

Powerful vocals.

Now that girl can sing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was probably one of her best live performances of her career. Amazing 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

This vocal performance came on the back of her singing lessons for Evita. This was the first time in her career that she had worked with a vocal coach. She worked with Joan Lader who is Patti Lu Pones vocal coach.

Wow, indeed! That's the energy (and more!) you get from her concerts. I remember seeing that performance and was so impressed and also fascinated to see her evolution as an artist and human being. It was very touching, in fact. Still, I didn't become a bona fide fan until the Drowned World tour where she featured the albums Ray of Light and Music. That tour was awesome! Thanks for the reaction. Hope you give the album ROL another chance. : ) Have you reacted to EVITA yet?

The song itself puts everyone on their feet. It's the song. Madonna was superb, but the song is simply a very exciting song.

that audience got absolutely TURNT

My absolute favourite TV performance of Madonna. Interesting fact this is the earliest time if sat she has ever sung at 9am

Her best live vocal performance ever. It's astounding. It was a little downhill from here as the MTV VMA's weren't good, nor The Power of Goodbye. She recovered with DWT 2001 but never the same (like this).

this was one of the only performances of Ray of Light in the original key

Just waiting for MUSIC (2000), AMERICAN LIFE (2003) and CONFESSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR (2005) album's review.

Madonna had an album called Something to Remember which she released as a collection of previously released ballads and one new song which I didn’t see you cover. The name of the song is “You’ll See”. An underrated song and video in my opinion. There was also the You Can Dance album which had remixes of all of previously released works plus one new number called Spotlight. That is more of a nostalgic song for me. But it would have been nice to see you cover those songs too. You should check out her Drown World Tour in which she does cover the the majority of the Ray of Light album.

That amazing performance, that incredible audience, Oprah hyping it…one of my proudest Madonna moments ever. Other than when I got a fist bump during Madame X tour.

Madonna is just a pure 💎

This is the only time she sang it THIS GOOD !

One of the best live performances ever by Madonna. Excellent performance.

bruh this one is one hell of a good performance

Amazing live performance, defenetly one of her best

Great reaction!

this is so f*cking good! the energy was insane!

Love this reaction! This is my favourite performance of this song.

I loved when she performed on an award show and did this song with Lenny Kravitz on guitar!!!! Was 1998 at the MTV Video Music Awards

I remember watching this after school!

Ayyy my fav song got reacted

"Man this is a talk show & it's turning into a whole fucking concert!" 🤣 ded

I didn’t see this live but I saw it soon after and then often cuz I loved It way much !!!!!!!! Even Oprah was dropping her “miss manners” and throwing on down , yelling and screaming lol! I really enjoyed it myself and consider this one of the best performances of ray of light the song!!! The version in the confession tour is a little more exciting, also live , but has dancers and Madonna plays a guitar …..still sings with this power and and excitement---Plus, there are 30-40,000 people there ,,,with equal effect!! REALLY GOOD I LOVE MADONNA because she isn’t something you can get bored with, and she has never let me down!!!! You’re FaB Taylor, don’t think it’s not noticed!! Lotsa love to you my man👍💙🌷 And lots of thanks, Zane😎🌸

Watch her performance of Little Star, also on that Oprah show. It changed my view of the entire song and her vocals.

This is my first time watching this video. ASTOUNDING! Pinnacle! It is her top five live performances.

'’the energy is real!’’ 🥰

Would love to see you react to You'll See, which imo is one of her best ballads with sublime vocals. The video is gorgeous as well as the sequel to Take A Bow.

Love that you’re such a Madonna fan, now. If you want to see how really amazing her vocal chops are watch her performance of Sooner or Later at the ‘91 Academy Awards.

First off, I need to say that I f*cking love ur channel and commentary is always so on point! One thing I would like to add to ur review is how confident she acted and sounded as the performance progressed. You could tell she was so nervous at the beginning. She just had a child took major vocal lessons for Evita and that this was definitely her first time to showcase that training in a small and intimate and live performance. She was and still is always ridiculed for her vocal abilities and she was probably scared AF to perform it live. Half way through this performance you can see she's more relaxed and confident, which then opens up her vocals. When she was hitting those long, strong and high notes, it almost seemed effortless, if not, f*cking just fun for her. I've always thought this performance was amazing! Looking forward to seeing more of ur episodes.

That is all so true.

She negotiated three different resonance areas in this song: her chest / her mask / her head. Head voice to the mix in her mask to her mix-belt. It’s not an easy song to sing at all. There may have been a bit of pitch correction but it’s only noticeable when her voice sounds robotic - which is in maybe 3 places for very short moments. But otherwise it’s real, and the echo/reverb is a really nice enhancement

Not often a performance on a talk show becomes so uplifting and powerful...she killed it vocally 🔥 I must say though after evita I feel her voice extended in range but somehow lost some of its character and soulfulness....Still all her live performances fascinate me.

When you check out The Confessions Tour it's interesting to see how her live performances of this song has evolved.

the first song I heard from her as a baby

MY GOD!! what a performane in the TV Cathedral of Our Lady of Oprah . DANG!!!

when someone says 'madonna can't sing', what theyre really saying is they just dont like her and undrmining her vocals and her talent is the best they can come up with. they know what theyre saying is rubbish cos when pressed to give reasons why they say that they can't. she has a wonderful ability to express so much emotion, she's incredibly versatile having sung more genres than anyone else. she's an especially strong balladier. much stronger technical singers arent nearly as captivating or entertaining

Nice reaction. My only note is from when you mention the producer wanting to keep her voice in that key... Madonna is the producer. She works with co-producers, but she calls the shots always.

Oprah knew the words. 😂. I love it. Madonna had gotten vocal lessons for the first time ever a few years prior for Evita She found a lower register she never really used to much. Madonna's vocal prowess in just a matter of months still is and was astounding. It's very apparent in Ray of Light her 1st studio album after Evita.

I love how amazing this was for how simple and non-gimmicky it was. No crazy stages, no insane routines. Just pure energy!

Seeing all the old ladies losing their sht is so funny. 😭 Definitely the best performance of this song. Also that shot of Oprah losing was used a lot as gif at my MSN times. 🤣
