Madonna was nominated for a Golden Globe for best Actress and won, but sadly was not nominated for an Oscar.
As great as her Evita performance was, she has spent a lifetime behaving like a spoiled brat towards actors who have the unique privilege to nominate other actors for the Oscars. As much as I like her music, and enjoyed her performance as Eva Peron, that was a self inflicted wound
You have to watch “Evita”!! Madonna’s performance is outstanding, she’s so perfect in every single scene!! I love Evita. Please note that the real Eva Peron had a very poor childhood and she was stigmatized since she was born by the word “bastardo” that meant a child that was born outside the marriage and for Evita that was something that needed to be changed, so when her husband Peron became President of Argentina, she fought and changed that word in the certificates of birth in Argentina
Thank you for sharing that information with us! ❤️❤️
One of my favorite Madonna songs. Her voice was phenomenal here after the Evita training. She shot this video when she was 8-9 months pregnant, which is why they put her behind the piano in the video. The song also won the Oscar for Best Song from a Motion Picture. Hopefully you guys will watch her Oscar Performance of this next. Nervous beyond belief, but soars vocally the second half of the performance. Thank you guys again for letting us relive these moments with you. 🥰🥰
Thank you for being here with us! ❤️❤️ Can't wait to see the Oscar performance!
One of my favorite madonnas song ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I remember the news back then about Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber getting together to write this new track. It eventually won the Oscar for best original song, and Madonna performed it at the academy awards that year. I hope you get to watch the movie and share with us your thoughts on it 😊
Can't wait to see that Academy Awards performance! ❤️❤️
Madonna should’ve won an Oscar for Evita. I shed a few tears to this scene, when I saw Evita on Christmas Day, in 1997. Her voice is so breathy and delicate in this song. And she looks beautiful, hiding her baby bump behind that piano.I absolutely love it. Amongst my top 3 favourite ballads from Madonna. I do hope you circle back to review the movie!
Ty for reviewing this!! There is an awesome live performance at the Oscars to review!
Have a lovely day!! ♥️
Didn’t the song win the 1997 Oscar for best song?
@@Arnoldego It did.
Thank you! ❤️❤️ Can definitely see why it's one of your favorite ballads - Such a beautiful song.
Have a wonderful evening! ❤️
I agree with Lawrence.. you have to watch the Oscar performance of this song
her oscars performance is stunning, she was pregnant and brilliant!
It was a big shame she wasn’t nominated though but courageous still to go and perform there.
She wasn't pregnant when performing at the Oscars though. But maybe you meant the video?
Strongly recommend you watch the Oscars performance
U ladies will love the performance. Love this era
Defo “Right in the feels”😢😢😢 Madonna sung this perfectly, beautiful upper register but not with too much power to portray the weakness in Eva Peron’s last moments in the movie. I can’t listen to this without thinking of the scene from the movie and grabbing the tissues!! She stood behind the piano in this as she was heavily pregnant with Lourdes here❤ So sweet!
I’m a huge Madonna fan, but this, Oh Father and Promise to Try, I have to skip when they come on as they always get me right in the feels😢 I love how You Must Love Me is now included in the stage production ❤ You will love the movie ladies x
If the song alone was this moving, it's hard to imagine making it through the movie without falling apart... We may need tissues and a stiff drink for this one. 😉❤️❤️
Been dying for this one ladies. She was also pregnant during this video.
This song to me is more than just for the movie. I feel like when she sings it, Madonna herself is reaching out to us, her fans, critics, and the whole world. Longing for us to love, accept, and understand her. She has a couple of songs like that, like Open Your Heart, Frozen, and Nothing Really Matters.
I remember when this movie came out. I went to the theater by myself to see it. I couldn't find anybody else who wanted to go with me. Back then, I was the only madonna fan I knew. 🙂
"I feel like when she sings it, Madonna herself is reaching out to us, her fans, critics, and the whole world. Longing for us to love, accept, and understand her." Love this! ❤️❤️
Brenda, when you cry, I can feel all emotion around you! Thank u for share your sensibility!!! ❤️❤️
Aww, you're very kind - Thank you! ❤️❤️ Big hugs to you!
You should watch "You Must Love Me/Don't Cry for Me Argentina" live from Buenos Aires. She is amazing and the crowd is WILD.
For me, Evita is an artistic high point in her career. And it was my introduction to the musical itself. Which I've loved ever since and seen on stage many times. Since 2006, You must love me has become part of the official score when staged.
Lovely reaction, very moving indeed. One of the themes of the Evita film, much more so than the stage musical, seems to be the uncertainty of Eva's life. The lines in quite a few of the songs begin with "What happens now?" "Where do we go from here?" "Where am I going to?" and Madonna really lives those lyrics. Normally, and from the American version of the musical, she is portrayed as a cold, manipulative almost maniacal shrew. But Madonna's take on her is very different. She sees the woman behind the headlines and gives her a lot more humanity than a lot of the "serious" performers have ever done. She should have at the very least been nominated from an Academy Award for her performance in this film.
The strikingly different portrayals in the stage versus film versions have always been so remarkable to me.
Madonna's had so much more humanity and, despite Eva Peron's faults, really made you feel sympathetic toward her and reminded you she was not a one-dimensional character.
Madonna's version was the first I'd ever heard or paid any attention to the musical. I remember my shock when I later heard Patti Lupone's shrill, bombastic performance, thinking "wow, they really wanted audiences to dislike this woman"
It was also a smart alteration to make in that I don't think cinema audiences would have appreciated being shrieked at from the big screen for 2 hours.
@@todddepue681 I couldn’t agree with you more. Madonna’s Eva is a real person with flaws and compassion. I think as the musical progressed from concept LP to London’s West End , she was still sort of fragile, but once it went Stares side she became a horrible character. Madonna took her back to a nicer place. Why would anybody in Argentina have loved Eva if she was as terrible as she was portrayed in many of the shows?
@PerryCJamesUK Aww, thank you so much! ❤❤ Love that Madonna had a different take that brought more nuance and humanity to the role.❤
This is a nuance of her performance that is rarely analyzed by the critics. Madonna felt a connection with Eva that is apparent in her portrayal. Deep love by many and hate at the same time. Yes she was flawed but like many icons, neither side can see qualities from the other perspective. This woman connected with the people on a personal level and that is a quality Madonna shares and many are unable to understand.
It was often assumed that Evita and Juan Peron’s relationship was “contractual” and not based on love. (I would be Surprisingly Good For You), so the addition of this song humanized her greatly in the film adaptation. There is a very poignant moment 12 years later when she sings this beautifully in front of 70,000 fans during the Sticky & Sweet tour in Argentina. It takes on a whole new meaning as instead of a song to Juan Peron, it becomes a love letter to her fans. Tear jerker.
Oh wow... We'll definitely need extra tissues on hand when we watch this on the Sticky & Sweet Tour.
Thank you for sharing that with us! ❤️❤️
She was like 8 or 9 months pregnant when she shot the video, that's why she's hidden behind the piano. The Oscars performance is soon after she gave birth, it's definitely worth checking out.
Absolutely heartbreakingly beautiful ❤
Madonna was heavily pregnant in this video which is why she’s standing behind the piano. She has that pregnant woman glow and she looks beautiful ❤
This film really is an example of some of Madonna's finest work. Beyond the character being one she could portray so well, it's really like an epic 2 hour music video. Who better than her to convey a wide ranging story, completely sung from start to finish, and make it seem so natural and realistic?
Through the process of learning to sing these songs, she realized her voice was far more capable than she'd given herself credit for. Some fans were not thrilled by the resulting change in her voice, but it really gave her a new confidence to be more experimental in the way she sang. The difference is notable on the Ray of Light album.
My favorite fun fact about Evita, because I'm a fashion lover above all, is that Madonna still holds the world record for most costume changes by one actor in a film.😊
What a cool fact about Evita! Thank you for sharing that (and can't wait to see all the costumes). ❤️❤️
She was very pregnant with Lourdes in this video. I remember running to buy the single released before the movie premiere and I sat in the car and listened over and over to her incredible vocals in tears. On the B side of the CD single was “Rainbow High” which takes her vocal abilities to new levels and I just couldn’t get enough of that one too. This time in her career felt like she finally reached the heights of fame she deserved.
Aww, thank you for sharing that story with us - Can definitely understand why you were so moved by her vocals on this. Big hugs! ❤️❤️
aww Brenda, I get it girl. The movie is Breathtaking, and Madonna taking vocal lessons for the movie pay off as she sounds stronger than ever. Madonna nayurally has such an emotive warm tone in her voice and when she really belts and emotes, it's pure magic. Long live the Queen!
Big hugs and lots of love to you! ❤️❤️
@@OurAnxiousReactions awwww. Thank you. 🙏🏻
Yessss! I love this journey. I’m going to see her Celebration Tour in Las Vegas tonight!
Thank you so much!❤️❤️ Hope you had the best time at your concert!!! 🎉🎉
I cant wait for yall to see the movie.. EVITA !!!! 👑
Thank you ladies as always. Yes pure simple angelic vocals like you say.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
A wonderful reaction for a beautiful song.... You should watch the movie.... I'm sure you'll love it a lot. Thank you being real, with kindness from France.
Aww, you're very sweet - thank you so much! ❤️❤️
I so anticipate your reactions and this journey through Madonna’s career , so honest and properly discussed , can’t wait for the next .
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
I was looking forward to your reaction to this video. 💙 I'm glad you recognize the beauty in the instruments and lyrics, and her heartfelt vocals.
I also think that I agree with some of the comments about you possibly reacting to Madonna's performance at the Oscars. It might not be a perfect performance, but it's quite strong, It's an important part of her career.
Anyway, thanks again for all your awesome reactions! ❤ 💯 Many of us really enjoy your content!
Aww, you're so sweet - Thank you! ❤️❤️
We're excited to see the Oscars performance too. ❤️
Beautiful song! xx
Madonna was sure to win the Oscar for Best Actress, she told a reporter who asked her the question. It wasn't like that, his disappointment was great, but he went to sing it anyway at the Oscar ceremony, seeing her sing you see the disappointment written on your face. The newspapers were of the next day they were not very kind to her, they said that she did not want to stand aside even if it was not her time
Thank you for sharing that with us. ❤️❤️
Ladies, thank you for the back story, I never knew that and the song is beautiful
Thank you for being here with us! ❤️❤️
Wait until you see her singing this in the film, heartbreaking. I never felt so sad leaving a cinema.
Oh wow, you used to live in Argentina for a while! How cool is that!
It was an amazing experience! ❤️❤️
Omg wait until you hear her voice in this movie! It’s so beautiful.
Looking forward to your reaction to the Madonna interview with Oprah regarding Evita, her daughter, etc....
You will love the movie..xxx great thoughtful and insightful reaction as ever ..love this journey you are nothing xx
Aww, thank you - You're very sweet! ❤️❤️
Look forward to your reaction to her Oscar performance of this song. Plus, her concert tour version.
❤❤
This era in Madonna’s career was amazing.
A very moving song and she totally hit the emotions with this.
Great reaction as always ❤❤
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
I haven't seen the movie, or had interest in seeing it. abut this song has always been so pretty to me!
Everybody knows the Academy Awards robbed Madonna of her Oscar nomination for best actress in Evita , never mind the woman got up and came out fighting with a slam dunk album called Ray of Light in 1998 . ❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️
Such a beautiful song from a spectacular movie!! Again Thank you ladies for this ❤❤
Thank you! ❤️❤️
I remember the news of those years when Madonna was in Argentina and people were divided into 2: those who loved her and those who hated her showed streets with giant writings with Madonna Hurrah Evita outside. When the film was released, in many Argentine cinemas there were real dislocations of the theaters that showed the film
I see this journey continuing great. I think not giving Madonna the Oscar for Evita was a very cynical decision. I mean a woman with enormous power in the music industry couldn't become powerful in Hollywood... However, at the Oscars evening, Billy Cristal said when introducing her that although Madonna had not received the Oscar she was there to sing her song. This is being powerful and dignified.
Can't wait to see this Oscars performance! ❤️❤️
Beautiful song. ❤💛💚💙💜
Must check the live performance at the Óscar IS more emotional 😢
another great reaction, your next reaction should be You Must Love Me at the oscars she was famously not nominated for best actress, even after winning the GOLDEN GLOBE best actress. she asked the oscars to let her sing anyway. Billy Crystal talks about this as he introduces her.
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️ Excited to see that Oscars performance!
She didn’t ask to sing, they asked her to sing even after she was snubbed a nomination,very important distinction there.Madonna showed her class & grace by performing, I think the Academy still owes an explanation for why she was robbed a nomination.
@@Christian_Adonis1 well in the video billy said she rang them. but you obviously know better. i believe him more than i believe some comment on you tube.
in this video Madonna was eight months pregnant with her first daughter Lola
Wow! I'm from Argentina, so due to the fact that you've lived here, you know something about our negative and positive feelings towards Eva Perón. I'm not her fan, but I know some people still love that figure.
Living in Argentina was such a wonderful experience for us - We absolutely loved it there! ❤️❤️
And yes, Eva Perón is definitely a polarizing figure.
So interesting to hear you were in Argentina at the filiming of the film Evita. Did you learn how to dance tango while there, Brenda?
Unfortunately, we didn't take tango lessons while we were there (although we enjoyed watching the professionals!). Maybe it was a blessing for the dance instructors. 😉😂😂
@@OurAnxiousReactions There was a fascinating context and a lot of socio-political drama surrounding the decision to film Evita in and around Buenos Aires. There was no love lost between the British film production behind Evita and the Peronists and many Argentines who were angry at the unflattering portrayal of Eva Peron on stage of the original Evita. Andrew Lloyd-Webber and Tim Rice wanted to repeat their successful 1971 rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar by writing Evita on stage in a similar critical view of Eva Peron’s rise to power. The Argentines were also still holding a grudge over their 1982 defeat to the British at the Falklands War. The Peronists were also against the choice of Madonna because of her controversial reputation. They felt this film would just further tarnished the image of their beloved Evita. There were huge graffiti all over Buenos Aires urging “No” and “Out With” (in Spanish) directed to Alan Parker and this British film production, and to Madonna when the film crew and cast arrived in town in February 1996. There were also sporadic protest demonstrations against and some young Madonna fans rallying for outside the hotel where the film crew and cast were staying.
Director Alan Parker rewrote the film screenplay to focus on a more sympathetic take on Eva Peron’s life, political/humanitarian advocacy, loyalty/love and premature death. Alan Parker and the cast held a public press conference in Buenos Aires shortly after their arrival there to allay the skepticism over the film project.
Parker obtained approval from then Peronist President Carlos Menem to film in Buenos Aires but were denied the use of the Casa Rosada executive mansion for the crucial balcony scene. Sometime in May when the film production was wrapping up to leave for London to film in studio the balcony scene, Madonna on her initiative managed to arrange a one-on-one meeting with Menem who was then vacationing on an island off Argentina. Madonna had to overcome her fear of flying aboard a helicopter for the first time to get to the island. This would be their first ever face-to-face meeting. From reported accounts of this meeting, Menem was totally astounded, he didn’t meet ‘Madonna’-he met ‘Evita’. Madonna came fully made up in Evita’s look and fashion. She also made him to listen to some of her recordings of the film soundtrack; narrated to him her research of Evita’s life and career revealed parallels that resonated with her own, and she assured him that she wouldn’t have accepted this role if the screenplay denigrated Evita’s image and legacy. She convinced him. She returned to Buenos Aires and they proceeded to film the famous balcony scene at the historic Casa Rosada where she sang Don’t Cry For Me Argentina that evoked Eva Peron’s 1951 final speech before the ‘descamisados’ (the ‘shirtless’ workers and poor masses) declining to accept her party’s nomination as Vice President to Juan Peron’s reelection campaign due to her poor health. Eva Peron would die that next year in 1952 at age 33.
@@OurAnxiousReactions LOL! I'm sure you would have been the best student! I've always found dancing/learning tango to be more intellectual than "passionate." I enjoy your YT channel!
@@briandubois-gilbert8182 Thank you so much for that great summary of the socio-political factors that converged at the time of this production! ❤❤
And thank you for sharing that incredible story of Madonna's meeting with Menem. ❤
It's interesting that she had to overcome a fear of flying in a helicopter to get to their meeting location - Menem's son was actually killed in a helicopter crash in 1995...
@@moonstone1159 Thank you for the vote of confidence! 😉❤
Please watch the movie and react to it; I think that you will love the movie. Also, you must react to Don’t Cry For Me Argentina and Another Suitcases In Another Home and the song Buenos Aires
It's also, in a way, personal to Madonna. Her mom died as well from breast cancer. There were a LOT of parallels between Eva Peron and Madonna. Please, please, please watch the movie. Would you be able to record it? I'm dying to see your reaction to it.
We'll definitely watch it (and react to it). It may be a bit though, since we want to go a little further with Madonna's music before we see her in concert in a month). ❤️❤️
@@OurAnxiousReactions Definitely understand.
❤your beautiful reaction to this ballad. This song and Don’t Cry For Me Argentina were the 2 most popular and outstanding songs from this 1996 Evita film. Her portrayal of Eva Peron and these 2 ballads passionately endeared Madonna among Argentines. There are 3 ‘must see’ versions of this official music video of You Must Love Me:
1) her 1997 Oscar Performance-with Billy Crystal’s full introduction: ua-cam.com/video/nKwDkw0FBq0/v-deo.htmlsi=J6Yi4Yzk0M-WXXxR
2) the film clip of her returning home from the hospital terminally ill on a wheelchair, and this song was played in the background as her husband gently carried her up the flight of stairs into her room: ua-cam.com/video/uvzcnx1fVYo/v-deo.htmlsi=bKrIFY5pwbJvkiod
3) her memorable 2009 return to Buenos Aires (since the 1996 Evita film shoot) to perform this song and Don’t Cry For Me Argentina live during the Sticky&Sweet tour before an adoring sold out audience: ua-cam.com/video/ZtHBwZykkOE/v-deo.htmlsi=LIoseqR7sPwf32Wp
For many Argentines and Latin American admirers of Eva Peron and her legacy, there is only one Evita musical actress for them-it’s Madonna.
Aww, thank you so much - You're very kind. ❤️❤️ And thank you for the links - Can't wait to see them! ❤️
SUCH A GREAT MOVIE… Madonna found out she was pregnant with her first daughter Lourdes while filming this movie….
❤️❤️
i'm waiting for your Evita Movie Reaction...bc the last 30 min will be tough to watch and you will need a lot of tissues😢
Thank you for the heads up on the last 30 mins! ❤️❤️
Hello Ladies.
Yay!
The song won the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song at the 54th ceremony, which took place on January 19, 1997. Two months later, it was awarded the Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 69th Academy Awards.
Are you going to react to the movie?
Hope you are all doing well. ❤️
P. S. I'm headed to Costco, do you want me to pick up 100 boxes of recycled tissues? 😂
We'll definitely react to the movie at some point - Looking forward to it! ❤️❤️
Hope you're doing well too! 😘
And yes, with all these recent reactions, we need to make another run to Costco as well. 😂😂
@@OurAnxiousReactions Sweet! So looking forward to it. I talked to my therapist about your channel. She said "Sometimes you find help in the places you would never think you would"
Thank you!
❤️
Biggest hugs to you! We're really trying to create a positive and supportive community with this channel, and we're so grateful that wonderful people like you are here with us. Sending lots of love your way! ❤️❤️
@OurAnxiousReactions did you realize she was very PREGNANT in this video; hence why she was performing behind a Piano to hide that. Of course, her face was full and glowing in this. Musically, EVITA is Madonna's most musical achievement. The film is definitely a must watch for any fan or those who love the story of EVITA. Personally, it's a little boring to me, but I love Madonna so much I ran to the theater to watch it. Unfortunately, when I did the first time, the film stopped right at the beginning because of projector issues. I had to come back to watch it, at another date. It's a great film for those who like this sort of story and genre. Of course, those who starred in the movie such as Antonio Banderas, Madonna. and Jonathon Price drew in more viewers because they all had their own fan bases. It's a great historical film (but maybe more Hollywoodize) to learn about the history of Eva Peron. Thanks for your review as always. You two are my favorites and I would come back and watch more reviews from you when you do other artists, because you are so genuine and honest. (This is the time to start mixing it up and adding more artists you want to review. It will help build your viewership!)
Aww, you're very kind - Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
What a story - you must've been so disappointed when the projector had issues! Glad you were able to see it on a different date.
We're looking forward to watching it (especially since we enjoy musicals and Madonna 😉). Much love! ❤️❤️
Enjoyed your reaction, but this is the era I struggle to connect with the most. Saw the film once, was underwhelmed. As such, the album is ranked last in my list of her 24 albums, just behind GHV2, Hard Candy, and Remixed & Revisited (in my "never listen to" pile). I keep giving it chances but just don't "get" it, which is fine. Plenty of fans struggle to connect to American Life and Madame X, which are my number 1 and 2 albums.
Thank you! ❤️❤️ And completely understand - We all have our own tastes and preferences. ❤️
You really don’t have to watch the movie
Amazing song. I can’t wait for u to react to the Sticky & Sweet Tour version of it.
You should react to the acoustic version from the Sticky & Sweet Tour. The best live version, in my opinion.
I love Evita! However, I’m really hoping we go through it quickly as I think is key for you ladies to experience the whole “Ray of Light” era before you go see her on her Celebration Tour!
