This concert was turning point in pop shows all the concept has changed after that. Madonna is a true visionary

You are so right. She turned concerts into "shows".The whole segment thing was genius.

Madonna Nicki and Donna = one of the best girl groups ever!!

The raspy voice was because this was her final show and he voice really took a lot of strain. It was one of the highlights in her Truth or Dare documentary where it showed she had to cancel shows at one point in the tour and not talk at all.

“Mr. Eye Candy” during Into The Groove is the late Gabriel Trupin RIP

I had the pleasure of seeing this concert at The Palace of Auburn Hills back in 1990! It was actually my first time on a plane and it changed my life! I was 18 at the time and I was so happy to see her in concert!

I was at that same concert. Imo, it was the best show. She was on fire 🔥.

Keep It Together is the most amazing ending to a concert

So glad you enjoyed it! It's her third concert and a landmark at that because of the theatrical staging, non-stop dancing, and controversial Like a Virgin number! This is the concert where Madonna became fully MADONNA, imv, the stage goddess of song and dance. She set the standard for other concert performers, especially female performers. Wish I had seen it live. Thank you, Dereck for a great reaction!

She really didn't like performing Material Girl at this point. And was certainly tired of everyone still calling her that. The corny accent was, imo, just kind of her way of giving this song The Finger. Many people overlooked the ironic intent of the original song and here she's saying "I don't take it seriously, why should you?" She took a similar approach in the Who's That Girl tour couple years before this.

I think she get inspired by SNL too (she made a similar character later in Coffee Talk as Liz Rosenberg)

30 years later still my favourite version of Into The Groove.

I absolutely adore the final number. The costumes and choreography along with the British accents are all a take on “A Clockwork Orange”- an extremely controversial Kubrick masterpiece. She even references the “old in out, in out” taken directly from the film. Only Madonna. Brilliant.

One of her best tour ever. At the time, it was insane, none other female singer dared such a tour with background changing... And changes of clothes (apart Mylène)... Not even Kylie Minogue who copies her that same year. I remember being sat beside the stage, on the left and I could see the columns raised UP while she was singing "like a Virgin"! Impressive

You really need to react to the iconic documentary Truth of Dare

This show changed shows for everyone from this point on! She has changed my life and been a ray of light in darkness for me. She is not afraid of anything and takes on everything in the name of art.

I could watch that final 'Keep it Together' routine over and over again (as I already have) and still be mesmerised by it. It's so well put together and I think shows the human side of Madonna. She's really got it here. Feels like she's at the top of her game at this point.

She's singing live to Vogue with a loud backing track.....

You would probably really enjoy her movie/Rockumentary of this tour, "Truth or Dare". You learn a whole lot about her personality.

The dancer you like is Gabriel. He got together with Slam (Dick Tracy guy/Express Yourself main dancer) during the tour. Their kiss in Truth or Dare was a huge deal at the time because of the lack of gay representation back in the day.

RIP Gabriel

Great reaction to this tour! I will give a suggestion for another next reaction maybe: the "Ciao Italia tour" where her performances are amazing!

Definitely one of my favourite tours ever of hers, thank you for doing the two part reaction to this one, thoroughly enjoyed it!

Such an unique show!!! I remember when they showed the one from Barcelona on tv in Brazil and I recorded it on VHS and I still have it. Then came Truth or Dare in bed with Madonna documentary, which just turned Madonna on the queen of pop. If you have the chance watch the documentary. You’ll love it!! Ps: The dancer who you liked is called Gabriel and unfortunately he is not with us anymore.

I also recorded the Barcelona one on VHS when it was shown i Norway. A wonder I did not wear the tape out. Still got it :D

Been to every tour performed at Wembley, all unmissable and Madonna knows how to put a show on.

The inteire tour is so good and amazing!!!! Next would be Re-Invention tour or Sticky & Sweet tour.

Thank you for using this show! I've never seen that last bit where ALL the crew come out, it was awesome thanks D!

I'm Breathless soundtrack Madonna Ciccone best work vocally

No matter how big solo female artist are today, they’ll never be as big as Madonna was in the 90’s

10:55 Niki Harris background vocals are amazing!!!

So excited to see your part too and of course the famous finale show which was broadcast on HBO I remember when it was on TV and also my dad made me an audio cassette copy and I played it all the time! I was so inspired by the choreography, the way the music sounded, and her outfits everything! So wish I could have gone to see it but they filled it so well so we could enjoy it too. Glad you really loved it!

Was up til 3:30 in the morning watching these videos. So fun thank you!

You never dissapoint with your reactions. This one was truly so fun to watch,because you were truly a first-timer seeing this performance. 👏👏 This concert was everything!😊

Thank you for the amazing content! It would be great if you react to one of her sweatiest tours of all time. The Sticky & Sweet Tour is fire 🔥

She hated singing Material Girl so she wanted to be playful and be silly. It's funny and silly and it is her NY accent from Who's that Girl is what she's doing! 😉

Her voice here was very different as this was already the last tour performance (so this is Madonna voice 3 months later after 50 shows). Her New Jersey was much early on the tour. She probably put an extra effort in Nice as it was being filmed for a commercial Laserdisc (this concert shoot won a Grammy for best longform music video in 1992 - It was Madonna first grammy winning ever). "Hanky Pankky" was the single released after "Vogue" and peaked #02 in UK and #10 in US. Concerning Madonna and MJ tours - he was touring a lot more time doing 123 concerts with his '87/'88 tour while Madonna did only 57 shows with this tour (she gets tired from repeating the songs and dance routines). Both concert tours had similar individual grossing (in 2020 money $2.3 million for each MJ show and $2.2 million for each Madonna show).

Loved watching you react to this beautiful

Fun fact: Geri Halliwell from the Spice Girls wore a Madonna inspired outfit for the group’s Spiceworld Tour 1998, during their “Stop” performance, Madonna’s outfit on “Holiday”.

Your Cherish reaction is so damn adorable!

Great memories of one of my favorite concerts. The crowd was wild and Mo was at the top of her game.

That polka-dot outfit is one of her most iconic and one of my favs that she has ever worn. It fits her body so perfect!

3 down and 8 to go. I would do sticky and sweet next. You'll be amazed. I was at the Dodger Stadium for that one with Britney, JLO and Justin. Glad you singled out Gabriel as your 👁️ 🍭 on this one. He was a glamorous Angel.

I have an original blonde ambition tour jacket

loved your reaction to lets dance and get into the grove

You should watch and react to Truth or Dare. Her documentary of her life during this time. Groundbreaking and what all other musicians hope to capture when they do their own.

For me the eye candy is Kevin :)

10:53 "...looks like him" 10:59 "I don't think it's him" LOL!!!!

Legendary beyond words

dancers are amazing

I, regards from Peru.I am so glad that you enjoyed all the BLONDAMBITION...one of my favorite..qhe is the Queen forever!!... SHE TAUGH ME TO BE STRONGER..to be reinvented..to be better in time..to be not a second choice.. alwys the firt choice... thanks Madonna... te amo churra bella!! Diva... now i am followin you... great part 1 and 2... intothegroove... holiday... keeptogether and all... GRACIAS AMIGO TE AMO A TI Y TU CANAL. CARLOS HERRERA.

This concert tour is what every single pop star on this planet, male and female, has been using as the role model for their concerts. She is, in fact, the top grossing tour solo artist in music history!! No one can top Madonna in terms of live shows, no one, that's why she's the Queen of Pop, Her Majesty!!

Madonna's brother, Christopher, was the creative director of this show and Girlie Show. Please react to the tour documentary "Truth or Dare". You will see behind the scenes footage and get to know the dancers, Donna and Niki.

One of my favorite performance of Holiday!

in the Material girl part it sounds like she is doing it as her character in Who's That Girl Nikki Fynn and having fun with it

I conic. The pop concert blueprint.

Omg. Love your reaction to the tour. And mixing up the USA and the European leg of the tour in your review. She had bad throat problems and had to cancel shows in the USA. And I guess her rasp is some of that coming through. It certainly Makes for a better delivery. Amazing 🤩

Legendary. Mi Reina.

Hey from PR! Love how you get into your reactions especially Barbra Streisand songs. "Make It Like A Memory" is a great dramatic song from the 1980 Guilty Album, hope you react to it. 👍

Madonna is the talent, the director, the executive producer, and everything in between. I give Madonna so much credit for managing it all

That was the last blond ambition show. That's why everybody came into the stage to say goodbye for her in the end

AMAZING tour de la Queeeennn🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Now I'm Following You sounds exactly as it is on the Dick Tracy soundtrack. I played this over and over, when I was a kid.

Now I understand your banana fixation!😎

Hi, Derek! If you have free time search and watch The Blond Ambition Tour Live from Yokohama, Japan. I watched it non-stop last summer and I think it's the best performance from all other cities! Especially Keep It Together!

During the Material Girl set, she was mocking the song, because everyone associated her as the Material Girl. She stated how much she disliked that song.

You MUST watch Truth or Dare, thats the behind the scenes documentary of this tour. Its one of the greatest and most acclaimed music docs ever..

Keep toghether i love you Forever and ever

Producer/set designer: what props do u want on stage? M: yes!

Hello Dereck,i liked Madonna's show very much.But i found the 1 part a bit better.Probably i thought that part 1 and part 2 are similar.But this is Madonna,always good for a surprice!Dereck your beard.Looks too good.And your Award got the right place.Yo're worth it!!🎉📣😃😃😃💝🐬🐬🐬

Next in the list full Ray of light album reaction and then The Drowned World Tour. That tour is basically songs from Ray of Light and Music that you already reacted to the full album. Great as always 🍌♥️

Her voice was really damaged by the end of this tour. That’s why it’s a bit raspy and deep. Matter of fact the show I was suppose to see was cancelled cuz vocal issues. Luckily was able to secure tix to another night. To this day… never seen anything like it

She was born to Entertain

At the moment (1990) Madonna was using her "Jersey Accent" you coud see that all trough Truth or Dare Documentary as well and this Material Girl performance at the blond Ambition Tour ..it's like her "Fukc u" atttiude or her "shield" to be perceived as tough.

Even if you don’t do a video of Truth or Dare you need to watch it. An amazing film to go with this concert.

A Blond Ambition Tour mostra porque a Madonna é a MAIOR ARTISTA de todos os tempos!!!

you should listen to the album I'm Breathless...she did several tracks from the album on this tour...this tour changed concerts forever

she is god😍

You really REALLY need to check out "Truth or Dare", the behind the scenes documentary film about this tour. It is really amazing, I remember seeing it at the movie theater when it came out. An unforgettable look at what went on behind the scenes. At that time it was highest-grossing documentary of all time. Definitely a must see.

This was the final show of a 5 month tour so she was vocally spent but this is also the most fun show! They go all out! This was on HBO was the first concert they ever aired live, back then HBO was super expensive premium cable. The ratings were higher than anything they showed that year.

I can't believe you've never heard Keep It Together!

You sing very well btw

This is her best tour IMO. The Girlie show and then MNDA are her other great shows.

You should look up the documentary of the tour : Truth or Dare. It was a highlight. The documentary also brought a big change in the cinema world and reality documentary.

She didn’t say part 2. She said “Je vous aime France partout” which means “France, I love you all” or literally I think it would be “I love you France, everyone”. 🙂

This is from the end of the tour vs the part one you reacted to, which was from the us leg which was the start of the tour. That’s why her voice is so raspy

I was coming out of the closet in 1989-90. This was my first Madonna concert. I left knowing that, yup, I am gay as the day is long. 🤣😂

Material Girl is done for comedy, the ladies in the hair salon gossiping. She also hates the song so changes it often

That was Marlene Dietrich!!!!! 👊💙👍😘

Super bowl 2012 is a must

Material girl was supposed to be playing the "rich white girl" image which madonna gets compared to... so she talked amd sang in this "rich bratty" voice. It was very funny to me

Material Girl is essentially her poking fun of the entire song and the reputation it gave her. So she isn't even trying to sing it properly, just making fun of it in the name of entertainment. :)

I'm a big Madonna fan but the reason why there's so much rasp in her voice is because she sings from her throat and she hasn't been trained to sing from her diaphragm until she recorded the Evita when she got vocal training/coaching.

Her voice was raspy she end up with laryngitis thruout this tour but that deep register is her gold

Now let's wait for your reaction to the girlie show.

Some people hate how she sang Material Girl here

My dear friend who has 12golds and 2 platinums told me that they would record a live version of the song and play it over the live performance so it wasn’t the studio sound but a live sound!

💃💃💃

I think the raspy voice here is more to do with her voice was shot after months on tour.

Keep It Together is a great song ❤️ so sad she didn't sing it never again 😞

The Queen 👑👑👑

They don't make performers like this any more!!

I can see why they had her lip synch on Vogue so she could get her breath and rest her voice for the last 2. This is an exhausting show to do for months.

Coucou Derrek elle a souffert d’une Laryngite pendant toute la tournée elle a du même arrêter la tournée pendant 3 semaines et ne pas parler ! Ses chordes vocales étaient tellement endommagés qu’elle a du chanté plus grave

Just before the last one "Je vous embrasse partout !!" means, "I kiss you everywhere !!" Not ''... Part two..'' . 😘
