This performance doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Madonna has been in the business so long, you forget what incredible, raw talent she had in the 80’s.
What is impressive about Madonna at her peak was that her live performances were not just singing but dancing as well. She must have been in great shape physically , kudos to her.
Yes she killed it here. Global debut at the most famous concert in what would become history. The DNA of the legendary performer who helped changed the world is right here. Awesome. Really incredible
Say what you want but no one can take away the fact that she sung live, on pitch in total breath control and full of life and energy. She looked beautiful and rocked the stage while taking no prisoners! We see why she's the icon she is to this day!
The 80's....The era of real live performances from both singers and musicians with a crowd enjoying every second of it with no technology disturbances ❤️🙏
Yeah, bit of a rose tinted view of the 80s there. That said the Boomers still criticised the advent of the synth, they didn’t regard it as a real musical instrument. That’s why I bite my lip when I see some guy on stage with a laptop. Time and tide wait for no man…
I still never understand what is the point of going to a concert and only seeing people holding up phones - why pay all that money when you cannot see over a sea of phones. Why I like going to some of Prince's last concerts where you had to check your mobiles and made for a great concert to be fully enjoyed.
@@Theodre_Verany Cindy Lauper was just as big as Madonna in the 80s. Her song "Girls Just want to have fun" has over a billion views on UA-cam. "Time After Time" has half a billion views. Not bad for songs released in the 80s. But Madonna managed to stay relevant all through the 90s where as Cindy Lauper fell off once the 80s were over.
Pure talent . She co-wrote the song . She sang live . She choreographed her dance routines . She has always been exciting and entertaining to watch . She commands the audience attention whether it’s intentional or not. She has longevity because people can relate and people are always fascinating by her . And she did all of these before social media .
Brings tears to the eyes when thinking of the time that has passed since this song was first released. Reminiscing on all those moments that we wish we could have captured for that moment longer and whilst we live in that past, the present passes until it becomes the memory we long for.....In the end, as we get older, its the precious moments that have passed that are truly priceless experiences of life...With no regrets but tearful memories....
The summer of 1984 almost every teenage girl in Los Angeles looked like Madonna which is still something I never saw duplicated that being her IMPACT on everything at that time.
My family took a vacation to L.A. for a week in the summer of 1985 --- we went to Disneyland and I swear to God --- EVERY white teenage girl there was dressed like Madonna! I even saw a few of them having impromptu dance contests. It kinda blew my mind because I never saw a music star have that kind of influence over an entire generation before.
Her voice and dancing are magnificent!! I think she puts all her energy towards this performance to prove that she can sing...after she was snubbed to be part of We Are the World. I always admire people who uses their experience of rejection and heartaches to make something beautiful for themselves, and Madonna is one of them
They didn't admit her because Maddona couldn't follow a simple rule and that was to leave the ego at the door, outside the room. Quincy Jones wasn't about to deal with an artist full of herself and unable to refine her voice, he already had many like that on his plate. There was no space for Maddona in a project like this. It wasn´t their fault. Madonna could sing, but she needed singing lessons and she didn't do that until she did Evita, 10 years later.

I was there. Not too far from the stage, at the tender age of 17. I wasn’t a Madonna fan back then, but she did a great job. I get a kick out of spotting myself in that massive crowd of around 90,000. It was hot as hell that day, and later, they turned the fire hoses on us and it was fantastic. What an awesome day, certainly the defining concert of my life.
I remember when this was on television. This was massive. She was skyrocketed bigger and bigger each year. Just when you’d think she was bigger than anyone else she would get even bigger. That had never happened to that degree with a female entertainer before. Not to this degree.
“Bring her back” wow the world really loved Madonna back in the 80s. It’s a shame that the new generation doesn’t appreciate all that Madonna has done. True icon and legend
WOW!! Like her or hate her, her ability to sing on pitch without missing a breath whilst doing cardio like that is TRULY IMPRESSIVE! A true legendary performer unmatched today!
Super clean audience. No flashes no cameras. Just feel good watching. I wonder nobody ever forsees this star will stay and slay for another 30 years and more
You know what’s crazy? I was in that audience and it’s one of the few concerts I DIDN’T sneak a camera into in the ‘80s and ‘90s. I wish to hell I did. It was the best concert of my life and I never saw one person with a camera in the crowd. Thank god for UA-cam.
Seriously, not too many in the audience would have had access to some decent camere, and if you did, that'd not be the place to carry dad's treasure to! Also as fainting hence becoming a crowd surfer is very likeley, you might just drop it too.
Her cardio here is unmatched. Those dance movements are definitely like sprinting for 5 mins x singing the long winded phrasings compounded by the natural anxiety of performing. Totally on another level.
My favourite memory of Madonna to this day. Her uniqueness at this point in time was her cool choreography and style (remember all the girls dressing up like her hehe), and singing without losing her breath.
@Ros ros something being deemed "the SHIT" is an African American colloquialism for something being The best... i.e. The important part of it is without THE, an entirely different meaning applies. My teacher is shit= bad teacher. My teacher is THE shit = greatest teacher...SO.. I SAID WHAT I MEANT.
Yeah they were the shit back then and now everything sucks now b/c music TV movies have gone downhill. At least Madonna used real music here and none of that digital music we hear today and she can really move and have fun at the same time. Madonna will always be the queen of pop! Nobody can ever come close to her.
I have never been a Madonna fan, but this is incredible. What an underrated performance at Live Aid. A phenomenal and amazing talent. She said she wanted to rule the world. She definitely ruled the female artist music world in the 80s.
The clothing she's wearing was called the "Amadeus look", after the 1984 movie "Amadeus". Lots of shiny brocades, lace, and glittery broaches. My best friend worked in a clothing store at the time and they stocked a whole line of that kind of look.
Great song & performance but I'm even more impressed with how she threw the tambourine high in the air several times & caught it without missing it or a beat!
Love to see her like this, free, raw talent, no tech enhancements, just her music and her in her element! She’s created some great music over the years! Fabulous.
I wasn't even born yet, but the 80s seemed like peak America and music. People could sing without autotune and play actual musical instruments in bands
In these early years one can see how much energy and emotion she put into her songs.. She threw every bit of herself into performances, a certain bit of craziness and sassy edge which seems to have calmed and been subdued over the years.. Still think she's great though!
Madonna is like the eighth wonder of the world. She is an example of a fully realized human being. She incarnated with a mission and fulfilled it to the nth degree! The rest of us are lucky to have incarnated at the same time she did. Sigh.... Shine on Diva shine on! #leo
there are soooo many better than her...most of which she stole from and took all the credit for. oh yeah and all the BJs she gave to get to the top. don't forget those 🤣
@@chrisi123 She will never be just a nobody! Your just a young kid, I can tell.These bitches today,like Lady Gaga have got nothing to be proud of other than that of a status symbol who sold her soul to (as they like to call him Lucifer.) Because that spun shock value chick has no musical voice,does she? I have not heard any of her songs,but as far as "the queen of pop" She will always be. She has not made one bad song!
I wouldn't say she was a diamond in the rough stage, she was actually pretty good and way better than the past 20+ years. Mid 80s, late 80s Madonna was amazing.
daniel silva I‘ve watched the video of the Sticky and Sweet tour concert in Buenos Aires several times. There her performance is terrific from beginning to end.
I've watched this video so many times now, every time I want to listen to this song I come here because it's my favorite live performance of into the groove, she's so energetic ❤
Wow!! She really does have talent!! She was moving around and dancing so much whilst still being able to sign! She’s got some impressive breath control!!
OMG, she's giving it all. I love this performance. Every now and then I go back to watch old Madonna performances to remember myself why I fell in love with her talent at 14yrs old. I'm 36 now and I love her even more. She's so underrated these days. All these pop girls that are coming around, should thank her. She opened up the road to all women in pop from the 80s to this day.
I was 11 years old when I saw this on television and I didn't know why but I could tell this lady was in the process of saving my life. Thank you, Madonna.
What do you guys mean when you say things like...”she saved my life”? Sounds a bit cringing and weird. What are we doing, worshipping human beings now?!
Im at work, supposed to be working on a project with a due date. I listen to 80s music on YT while I work. And came across this performance and now I'm not getting any work done because I'm staring at the computer screen in awe of Madonna....
3:23 perfect energy and perfect timing for a real LIVE performance. She was musically talented in many aspects such as dancing, singing and playing the tambourine in synchronicity.
@@pedromotta5418 Gaga is very talented, I'll give you that, but I don't think she is doing anything exciting currently. Madonna managed to reinvent and push herself artistically in a much better way. They're incomparable in that sense.
God, how she commanded the stage back then. I love that this is back when she still understood that her unmatched charisma, energy and skills were all she needed, along with a couple of male dancers/backup singers, to put on a stunning show. As time went on it seems she got ever more into gilding what needed no shine, adding legions of dancers and incredibly intricate stage design with each tour. The more complicated it all got, the less I enjoyed her performances. However, I was a fan for at least 25 years and will always remember her for providing the soundtrack to my early and mid-adulthood years. Bravo, Madonna. Thanks for outstanding music and thrills.
@@Sassyglbeauty lol. Actually I cut her some slack on the accent because she had married the British director Guy Ritchie and was spending most of her time in England. I'm the same way; I start picking up the accent of the people I hang around with. I went to the University of Oklahoma for two years and had myself a bit of a twang by the end of the first year. haha. Didn't help that both of my best friends there were from Texas. :D I hung on with Madonna until around 2000. After that it was hit or miss, depending on the particular song or album. I liked several songs off MDNA that were quite good, but none of them were the ones she released as singles. At this point it just makes me sad at what she's allowed herself to become. I look at her Instagram once in a while and I'm embarrassed for her. I thought she'd figure out how to age gracefully. I was wrong.
People talked about her being a studio singer and couldn't sing live but she's singing and dancing!! Nowadays or the last 30 years most can't do both and some truly can't sing live!! Madonna is something truly special!!
I was never into pop much back then, but that woman was not only a soulful singer, but a fantastic dancer..let alone a songwriter! Now, like Madonna Im older too, but realizing through UA-cam videos how Madonna was a massive talent, regardless whether or not I liked pop music back then! She was pure energy and took great care of herself. What an amazing woman!
I had just graduated high school that June. What I love about watching this now is how early on in her career she was - relatively speaking. Such a performer, not skipping a beat with the dancing & tambourine tosses & taps, all the while singing.
Funny how she was always criticized by not being able to sing well. Now in 2018 not many female popstars can slay a dance song without even dancing. Here Madonna is fully moving all over that stage and singing live and close to the album version. Goes to show how unfairly treated she was, to be honest.
Singing live, hitting her notes, banging the tamborine,....look, she is not a great pure singer, but she sang her stuff well, and entertained better than any of today's artists.
Tiago Rodrigues it takes a lot of training to sing well and move. During this time she was just starting out. Singers like Beyoncé and lady Gaga had Rough time at the beginning as well
@kotur28 why's that odd 😂😂. Besides I am 21 and huge madonna fan. This comment was suggested by my mom while she was explaining how popular madonna actually was.......
@kotur28 well , i mean , i'm pretty sure the original comment user wasn't sitting next to their mom while writing the comment. their original must be a metaphor of some sort , but not literal.
35 year ago how was it that long ago I remember this LiveAid concert like it was yesterday.Madonna is beautiful but then she still is now. Thank you for such a concert Madonna and MTV...
Madonna was just becoming famous then and as a 13-year-old at the time, I was in awe!! Live Aid was so amazingly huge. It's hard to convey to kids today how fantastic it was just to see such a live concert and the fact there was Wembley and Philadelphia going one at the same time - this concert was shown live on telly basically all day! Beats the Test Card!
I was only born in 2003 so no I obviously never will know how big it was. But I think a story I did hear is that all the official tapes from live aid were found at the back of the BBC archives. I think Geldoff wanted the tapes burned or destroyed so no extra money could be made from them. But for whatever reason the BBC didn't and as I said they suddenly turned up at the back of a cupboard. I think the list is incomplete though because I think MTV followed through on the promise. For instance I think there's 1 or 2 Ultravox songs missing. Hopefully you found this mildly interesting
To be fair, she was huge at this time, hence getting the gig. Granted though, she wasn't 'accepted' by the music press and was very much against the industry of male dominance. But yes, it was an amazing day and we watched it in our classroom haha!
She brings both that Cher chesti-ness to her singing as well as a bit of a girl-ish squeal whenever she wants it. And all while jumping around like banshee and staying in tune. Mad respect.
Ewww , Cher? are you crazy ?cher has always been envious of M because M is talented . Cher can be seen on social media dissing M and M had never said anything unflattering about her cus M has confidence , talent and class And Cher had never written a song in her entire career. M however had written dozens of number one songs worldwide
I remember having to work that Saturday in the clothing store I was employed at and telling them sometime in my shift that I wasn't feeling good....just so I could go home and watch Live Aid. I got home...put my TV on the 2nd floor balcony, turned up the volume, jumped in our swimming pool on that very hot summer day, floated around all afternoon listening to this blast all over the neighborhood.
@@hotbrakepads "Don’t get me wrong she is talented, but hands down best performer goes to Prince and I’m not even a huge Prince fan." --- Fixed it for you ..
Even from the beginning of her career, Madonna had such a magnetic stage presence. She completely owned that stage and enthralled 100,000 people in sweltering heat. The Queen of Pop indeed.
East Berlin? That had to have been an interesting time to be living over there at the time. America put out two movies in the 80s with Berlin as the setting called Target and Gotcha! Somehow, I think it was a bit exaggerated. But, it worked as scare propaganda to me being a young kid when they first came out.
I would say the 1990s was the last great decade. Both the 90s and the 80s were phenomenal. Actually, despite some problems, most o the 20th century was pretty phenomenal. The 2000s was when it all went downhill.
Music and stage shows was at a crossroads in this era. Almost all the other performers at Live Aid were traditional stage performers who sang, maybe strutted around the stage a bit, and focused mainly on the music (MJ, Prince and Tina being notable exceptions). Madonna combined music with dance performance in her stage presentations that most pop acts are now expected to follow. At the same time, this was only the beginning for Madonna... in later tours like Blond Ambition, she added a theatrical/narrative storytelling arc to her shows as well that shifted the expectations for tours yet again. This at the time felt so daring and innovative... amazing that she was singing live while dancing so energetically... little did we know this was only the beginning. It feels almost quaint and innocent now. ;)
This performance doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Madonna has been in the business so long, you forget what incredible, raw talent she had in the 80’s.
The singing performance or something was a little off. I think the outdoor venue part where she cant hear herself plays a part.
Absolutely !!!!
I do not agree with you. For me the performance is perfect and there is nothing out of place. My humble opinion.
@@Realest636 this is very good singing imho. Recording could be way better.

One of her back-up singers said you can't really compare her to other singers, because Madonna is more like an athlete.

The 80's....The era of real live performances from both singers and musicians with a crowd enjoying every second of it with no technology disturbances ❤️🙏
Lip syncing was a thing, especially when performing during live TV shows.
Um, that went on in the 1950's, 60's, 70's, & 90's as well, in case you didnt know

You know what’s crazy? I was in that audience and it’s one of the few concerts I DIDN’T sneak a camera into in the ‘80s and ‘90s. I wish to hell I did. It was the best concert of my life and I never saw one person with a camera in the crowd. Thank god for UA-cam.
Seriously, not too many in the audience would have had access to some decent camere, and if you did, that'd not be the place to carry dad's treasure to! Also as fainting hence becoming a crowd surfer is very likeley, you might just drop it too.
Her cardio here is unmatched. Those dance movements are definitely like sprinting for 5 mins x singing the long winded phrasings compounded by the natural anxiety of performing. Totally on another level.
My favourite memory of Madonna to this day. Her uniqueness at this point in time was her cool choreography and style (remember all the girls dressing up like her hehe), and singing without losing her breath.
now THAT"S how you work a stage!!!!! The 80's was the shit..and so IS MADONNA!!!!! I watched the WHOLE broadcast LIVE!!!
@Ros ros something being deemed "the SHIT" is an African American colloquialism for something being The best... i.e. The important part of it is without THE, an entirely different meaning applies. My teacher is shit= bad teacher. My teacher is THE shit = greatest teacher...SO.. I SAID WHAT I MEANT.
Yeah they were the shit back then and now everything sucks now b/c music TV movies have gone downhill. At least Madonna used real music here and none of that digital music we hear today and she can really move and have fun at the same time. Madonna will always be the queen of pop! Nobody can ever come close to her.
She's so cute, flirty, and energetic in this performance.
I couldn´t more agree with you
I am her biggest fan. She is cute.
in the heat I think she did pretty good, but "Ciao Italia" stayed in my heart forever and there is no concert like that one. She was amazing.
@Joeeeyyy Megalo Dondoola NOT a penny. Better look up the history of the Live-Aid concerts please.
@JT i agree🤣those are fun dance steps but we learned those in our aerobic exercise classes back in the 80's.
Anyone who can sing and dance simultaneously is a legend in my book.
...in 90ºF heat with humidity...wearing a jacket.
You work into it.
Agreed and it was hot as hell that day. I was waiting for Madonna to take off her coat and vest.
She loses her breath, so she's not a legend.
@@RachelParker-1977 really? And you could do better? I doubt it
I have never been a Madonna fan, but this is incredible. What an underrated performance at Live Aid. A phenomenal and amazing talent. She said she wanted to rule the world. She definitely ruled the female artist music world in the 80s.
i love her looks and style
Ikr she's hot
The clothing she's wearing was called the "Amadeus look", after the 1984 movie "Amadeus". Lots of shiny brocades, lace, and glittery broaches. My best friend worked in a clothing store at the time and they stocked a whole line of that kind of look.
Sarah B It looks quite fashionable, even today. Maybe because I was a teen at the time ;)
bright eyes my favourite look of her is Lucky Star look :P (cuz I'm a bit goth and I love black clothes)
Yeah Madonna always have amazing style
Great song & performance but I'm even more impressed with how she threw the tambourine high in the air several times & caught it without missing it or a beat!
Love to see her like this, free, raw talent, no tech enhancements, just her music and her in her element! She’s created some great music over the years! Fabulous.
Loved the 80s and early 90’s Madonna. So much youthful energy.
I didn’t realize it at the time but she was a really powerful performer.
Yes indeed!
She was on tour that year. So she was well used to performing and singing this one live.

I knew when I saw Madonna I was in love live aid helped her career
Is
Madonna was always underrated. She was a great live-performer. She inspired me and countless girls born in the 70's. Love her forever!!
Why do you think she was underradet?
She was known everywhere and a Idol for many people. I don't think that she was underradet.
@@c.h.8227 Right, but I meant she was underrated in terms of a live-performer and gemuine musician
@@leoniemueller7567
Ah, okay👍
Underrated by whom?
And now she's overrated. Sad
I remember this, it was an amazing performance. Sums everything that was good about the 80s.
The peoples liked this show ?
I wasn't even born yet, but the 80s seemed like peak America and music. People could sing without autotune and play actual musical instruments in bands
That's correct.
It was so amazing, my childhood had the best soundtrack =)
I forgot how AMAZING she was!! The one and only MADONNA!! ahhh the 80s!!!
Amazing ........ she put her all in this song.
In these early years one can see how much energy and emotion she put into her songs.. She threw every bit of herself into performances, a certain bit of craziness and sassy edge which seems to have calmed and been subdued over the years.. Still think she's great though!
She had it all,The look.The moves.The voice.The Charm!!!
and The Smile.
Madonna is like the eighth wonder of the world. She is an example of a fully realized human being. She incarnated with a mission and fulfilled it to the nth degree! The rest of us are lucky to have incarnated at the same time she did. Sigh.... Shine on Diva shine on! #leo
My favorite Madonna song. So mid 80’s and so cool and catchy
Pure ENERGY... There is nobody in this world like this girl
Lady Gaga!
Britney Spears
Never, she Cant walk and sing in same time. Shes a horrible performance
Janet jackson didnt sing live…
there are soooo many better than her...most of which she stole from and took all the credit for.
oh yeah and all the BJs she gave to get to the top. don't forget those 🤣
Constantly blown away by this woman. Decades of amazing performances; over and over. Truly a living musical legend.
Man, if I had a time machine, I'd go back to 1985 and see this in person!
This video is a time machine!!

she's singing, dancing, playing tambourine, doing choreography, talking to audience and being sexy all at the same time. Queen of pop.
Yep! A superstar in the making.She's so real in every way.I love Madonna!
.. and singing ''someONE ELSE'' like a dumb guy :-D
Yeah! She gave her all!
hahaha.yes back in the days, but now she is a nobody
@@chrisi123 She will never be just a nobody! Your just a young kid, I can tell.These bitches today,like Lady Gaga have got nothing to be proud of other than that of a status symbol who sold her soul to (as they like to call him Lucifer.) Because that spun shock value chick has no musical voice,does she? I have not heard any of her songs,but as far as "the queen of pop" She will always be. She has not made one bad song!
3:27 the spin move mic grab is 🔥
I absolutely adored her back then. She was so cool. I love this song. One of her best.
I love how scrappy she is here. Among all those rock gods, she sang and danced her heart out. Her diamond in the rough stage.
a rough cut Diamond
Imo she was already a legend. Fucking amazing ground breaking Madonna.
She soaking in it. She had it in spades. Top notch artist.
I wouldn't say she was a diamond in the rough stage, she was actually pretty good and way better than the past 20+ years. Mid 80s, late 80s Madonna was amazing.
She actually seemed quite pleasant & relatable here, which is something that I'm not accustomed to seeing...
*Unforgettable... Great to watch her so natural, so full of energy as always.*
I like how I can hear her breathing hard while singing this song. She is really working hard and on key!!! Madonna is an awesome entertainer.
How good is she here? What a performer.
I like this version Madonna. Sincere in the performing. Unique voice.
She could dance! Amazing performance. I listened to the live broadcast in 85. I was 19.
Actually her dancing skills improved, check her latest tours, the woman is still a machine.
daniel silva I‘ve watched the video of the Sticky and Sweet tour concert in Buenos Aires several times. There her performance is terrific from beginning to end.
Me too...as a 10 year old
I was born in 2006 but madonna is my queen in obsessed with her
Me too, saw it on t.v. and was very impressed!
shes so fantastic, her confidence and enjoyment is evident, true star not like the crap thats around today
I've watched this video so many times now, every time I want to listen to this song I come here because it's my favorite live performance of into the groove, she's so energetic ❤
Wow!! She really does have talent!! She was moving around and dancing so much whilst still being able to sign! She’s got some impressive breath control!!
Comes with great lungs.
She didn't sign anything though.
It’s called cocaine amigo
@@godrioo5042 🙄
No autotune. Nothing fake. Just raw and real singing and music.
What is autotune?
@@voicezful google it , its for shit false singers
absolutely and the time people in the world sang together world peace..
Amen
Just very bad singing lol
God, she has so much charisma, what a performer!
Noone is like her.
Music in the 80s hit different. These were real stars with real talent.
OMG, she's giving it all. I love this performance. Every now and then I go back to watch old Madonna performances to remember myself why I fell in love with her talent at 14yrs old. I'm 36 now and I love her even more. She's so underrated these days. All these pop girls that are coming around, should thank her. She opened up the road to all women in pop from the 80s to this day.
I was 11 years old when I saw this on television and I didn't know why but I could tell this lady was in the process of saving my life. Thank you, Madonna.
What do you guys mean when you say things like...”she saved my life”? Sounds a bit cringing and weird. What are we doing, worshipping human beings now?!
@@EightiesMusiqLover you must be a heterosexual.
Because she inspired you with her artistry, melody, choreography and joi de vivre.
Frank stfu
@@EightiesMusiqLover Exactly!
Im at work, supposed to be working on a project with a due date. I listen to 80s music on YT while I work. And came across this performance and now I'm not getting any work done because I'm staring at the computer screen in awe of Madonna....
Nice
Madonna is awesome a true trailblazer nothing but love
3:23 perfect energy and perfect timing for a real LIVE performance. She was musically talented in many aspects such as dancing, singing and playing the tambourine in synchronicity.
OMG the bomb, who can sing and dance like that today...ummm NO ONE, she is an icon!!!!!
PINK! Pink's routines are unbeatable. Watch her Try live.
Kim Wilde......
@Buck Naked Gaga is much more talented than Madonna, stay pressed.
@@pedromotta5418 maddona has wisdom on her side Gaga doesnt .....Mad's is Queen of pop ......PERIOD
@@pedromotta5418 Gaga is very talented, I'll give you that, but I don't think she is doing anything exciting currently. Madonna managed to reinvent and push herself artistically in a much better way. They're incomparable in that sense.
God, how she commanded the stage back then. I love that this is back when she still understood that her unmatched charisma, energy and skills were all she needed, along with a couple of male dancers/backup singers, to put on a stunning show. As time went on it seems she got ever more into gilding what needed no shine, adding legions of dancers and incredibly intricate stage design with each tour. The more complicated it all got, the less I enjoyed her performances. However, I was a fan for at least 25 years and will always remember her for providing the soundtrack to my early and mid-adulthood years.
Bravo, Madonna. Thanks for outstanding music and thrills.
80s Early 90s Madonna is my favorite Madonna era. Around the time she changed her accent to a British one is around the time I stopped loving her.
@@Sassyglbeauty lol. Actually I cut her some slack on the accent because she had married the British director Guy Ritchie and was spending most of her time in England. I'm the same way; I start picking up the accent of the people I hang around with. I went to the University of Oklahoma for two years and had myself a bit of a twang by the end of the first year. haha. Didn't help that both of my best friends there were from Texas. :D
I hung on with Madonna until around 2000. After that it was hit or miss, depending on the particular song or album. I liked several songs off MDNA that were quite good, but none of them were the ones she released as singles. At this point it just makes me sad at what she's allowed herself to become. I look at her Instagram once in a while and I'm embarrassed for her. I thought she'd figure out how to age gracefully. I was wrong.
People talked about her being a studio singer and couldn't sing live but she's singing and dancing!! Nowadays or the last 30 years most can't do both and some truly can't sing live!! Madonna is something truly special!!
I was five. Time flies. Damn!
And I have to say, this live performance just sounds great!
I was never into pop much back then, but that woman was not only a soulful singer, but a fantastic dancer..let alone a songwriter! Now, like Madonna Im older too, but realizing through UA-cam videos how Madonna was a massive talent, regardless whether or not I liked pop music back then! She was pure energy and took great care of herself. What an amazing woman!
One of my favorite Madonna songs. Love his performance here!
1 of her best !
I had just graduated high school that June. What I love about watching this now is how early on in her career she was - relatively speaking. Such a performer, not skipping a beat with the dancing & tambourine tosses & taps, all the while singing.
One of the greatest pop performances, she doesn't miss a single beat in her vocals or step, just epic!
Loving the live version. Addicting.
Funny how she was always criticized by not being able to sing well. Now in 2018 not many female popstars can slay a dance song without even dancing. Here Madonna is fully moving all over that stage and singing live and close to the album version. Goes to show how unfairly treated she was, to be honest.
Singing live, hitting her notes, banging the tamborine,....look, she is not a great pure singer, but she sang her stuff well, and entertained better than any of today's artists.
Just an amazing entertainer. Oh their was so much more to come😉
Tiago Rodrigues it takes a lot of training to sing well and move. During this time she was just starting out. Singers like Beyoncé and lady Gaga had Rough time at the beginning as well
Sorry there are plenty of times here shes so off key, out of tune, she isn’t dancing. Nowadays? She uses so much backing tracks who are you kidding?
Standards were way higher then to be fair. She was and always will be predominately known as a great performer not a top vocalist
Remember when every girl wanted to be like madonna......
@kotur28 why's that odd 😂😂. Besides I am 21 and huge madonna fan. This comment was suggested by my mom while she was explaining how popular madonna actually was.......
That's when "Madonnawannabe" was born. 😇
@kotur28 wow , do you really not get what they are saying?
@kotur28 well , i mean , i'm pretty sure the original comment user wasn't sitting next to their mom while writing the comment. their original must be a metaphor of some sort , but not literal.
@kotur28 other way around. goodnight.
Madonna is unique, there will never be anyone like her. Absolute goddess.🥰🥰
35 year ago how was it that long ago I remember this LiveAid concert like it was yesterday.Madonna is beautiful but then she still is now. Thank you for such a concert Madonna and MTV...
Madonna was just becoming famous then and as a 13-year-old at the time, I was in awe!! Live Aid was so amazingly huge. It's hard to convey to kids today how fantastic it was just to see such a live concert and the fact there was Wembley and Philadelphia going one at the same time - this concert was shown live on telly basically all day! Beats the Test Card!
I was only born in 2003 so no I obviously never will know how big it was. But I think a story I did hear is that all the official tapes from live aid were found at the back of the BBC archives. I think Geldoff wanted the tapes burned or destroyed so no extra money could be made from them. But for whatever reason the BBC didn't and as I said they suddenly turned up at the back of a cupboard. I think the list is incomplete though because I think MTV followed through on the promise. For instance I think there's 1 or 2 Ultravox songs missing.
Hopefully you found this mildly interesting
To be fair, she was huge at this time, hence getting the gig. Granted though, she wasn't 'accepted' by the music press and was very much against the industry of male dominance. But yes, it was an amazing day and we watched it in our classroom haha!
was her music made for only under aged KIDS to listen to ??
She brings both that Cher chesti-ness to her singing as well as a bit of a girl-ish squeal whenever she wants it. And all while jumping around like banshee and staying in tune. Mad respect.
Who's Cher??
She’s a singer. When she sings the line ‘I wanna dance with someone else’, that deep tone is like how Cher sings.
Ewww , Cher? are you crazy ?cher has always been envious of M because M is talented . Cher can be seen on social media dissing M and M had never said anything unflattering about her cus M has confidence , talent and class
And Cher had never written a song in her entire career. M however had written dozens of number one songs worldwide
Throaty , chesty, she was pulling from different places here.
I remember having to work that Saturday in the clothing store I was employed at and telling them sometime in my shift that I wasn't feeling good....just so I could go home and watch Live Aid. I got home...put my TV on the 2nd floor balcony, turned up the volume, jumped in our swimming pool on that very hot summer day, floated around all afternoon listening to this blast all over the neighborhood.
You have to admit she was one of the best performers of all time.
Oh OK you got me there.. I agree
This song was in the end of Desperately seeking Susan.
@@hotbrakepads "Don’t get me wrong she is talented, but hands down best performer goes to Prince and I’m not even a huge Prince fan."
--- Fixed it for you ..
@@hotbrakepads you're absolutely 💯 correct
She's the Queen of Pop Bro, of course She's great
She’s giving it her all here.
Kudos to that . 1985 she was still fresh.
Madonna was sensational in her prime years back in 80s
There are many diva but only one queen
She will always be the one who set the bar! She sings, she dances and is still going on strong!
Back when people ACTUALLY SANG their songs....dancing and real vocals at the same time ...miss those days her voice is awesome
Even from the beginning of her career, Madonna had such a magnetic stage presence. She completely owned that stage and enthralled 100,000 people in sweltering heat. The Queen of Pop indeed.
I was still living in East Berlin at the time Madona took over the world. The 1980s was the last great decade.
2000s was the last great decade
@@Bhullarsaab92 No the 2000s was the beginning of the end. When 9/11 happened everything went to shit.
East Berlin? That had to have been an interesting time to be living over there at the time. America put out two movies in the 80s with Berlin as the setting called Target and Gotcha! Somehow, I think it was a bit exaggerated. But, it worked as scare propaganda to me being a young kid when they first came out.
I would say the 1990s was the last great decade. Both the 90s and the 80s were phenomenal. Actually, despite some problems, most o the 20th century was pretty phenomenal. The 2000s was when it all went downhill.
@@islandbee Ja DDR
Music and stage shows was at a crossroads in this era. Almost all the other performers at Live Aid were traditional stage performers who sang, maybe strutted around the stage a bit, and focused mainly on the music (MJ, Prince and Tina being notable exceptions). Madonna combined music with dance performance in her stage presentations that most pop acts are now expected to follow. At the same time, this was only the beginning for Madonna... in later tours like Blond Ambition, she added a theatrical/narrative storytelling arc to her shows as well that shifted the expectations for tours yet again. This at the time felt so daring and innovative... amazing that she was singing live while dancing so energetically... little did we know this was only the beginning. It feels almost quaint and innocent now. ;)
There will NEVER be another Madonna!! Thank you for saving us all!
She s queen of pop
Just like how no band could replace Queen, just like how no person could replace Freddie Mercury.
Madonna Dale GaGa has replaced her and has saved us all from listening to Madonna....
Lucky GaGa wasn’t around back then, Madonna wouldn’t have existed.
Thanks god, because bone Madonna is so boring, imagine another.
