One of Madonna’s finest videos. A truly artistic achievement ❤. Thank you Emely and Brenda for been part of our family !
Aww, you're very sweet - Thank you! ❤️❤️ Biggest hugs to you!
It’s funny how you said the song sounded like “Electric Country” because Madonna described this album as “Folk-tronica” which means Folk electronica
Love "folk-tronica." What a great name for this! ❤️❤️
Hi Emily and Brenda! It's me with the Don't Tell Me avatar! I've always been hypnotized and obsessed with this music video and I'm so happy to see you both finally react to it ❤
Yay!! Glad we finally made it to that song (and we can definitely see why you chose it for your avatar!). Big hugs! ❤️❤️
Watch her performance of the song on Letterman, beautiful voice.
I would go further and recommend the whole interview/performance. One of her best and funniest IMO
Thank you so much for the suggestion! ❤️❤️
@@kevinp2722 Yes
I agree! I love the acoustic don't tell me from that interview
Yes! Her acoustic rendition if so raw and pure! It's my favorite version of this song.
This is the fourth collaboration between Madonna and Jean-Baptiste Mondino. He was the director of the videos of Open Your Heart, Justify My Love and Human Nature (and he will direct another video in the future). He was also the photographer of the Music album cover.
Thank you for sharing that with us! ❤️❤️
Wow- What an incredible variety of videos they created together. True artists!
This is a very important era, that's why she included the "Cowboy section" on the Celebration Tour. She made this mix of pop and "country" 24 years before Beyonce, she really paved the way for everybody else. Love this reaction ladies!
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
"...she really paved the way for everybody else." Absolutely! ❤️
I was thinking the same. Everything Madonna did It befor. Thanks girls. (From Spain with love)
3:01 - 3:30 That CHOREOGRAPHY is SO CLEAN & PRECISE ❤
It really is perfect! ❤️❤️
The ‘Drowned World Tour’ performance of this song is spectacular. The video brought to life on stage. Cannot wait for your reaction to the whole of that tour,to be honest!! Much love to you both.🇬🇧➡️🇺🇸
Drowned World Tour sounds amazing - Can't wait to see that one!
Big hugs and lots of love to you! ❤️❤️
The entire Music era is perfection
Over the last 24 years i have never got bored with this song loved it as soon as i heard it and still do🤠❤Xxxx
❤️❤️
Yes, this song was co-written with Joe Henry who's her sister Melanie's husband.
This was the first of four songs written with him, the others being Jump (2005), Devil wouldn't recognize you (2008) and Falling free (2012). All great songs by the way!
Thank you for sharing that info with us! ❤️❤️
What a talented family!
Madonna is incredible and this video is super great from the outfits to the dancing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤thank you lovely ladies for a wonderful reaction ❤️ ♥️ 😘 💕 💖 💜
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
And yes, she looked amazing in this video!
Thanks again ladies. Yes the lyrics are amazing. I believe her brother-in-law wrote the lyrics. One of my favorite of hers.
This song is hypnotic and serene. The choreography is insane. Keep em coming my favorite people in the world. We love ya.
Aww, you're the sweetest - Thank you! Sending lots of love your way! ❤️❤️
One of my fav's for sure.... the crowd lost it during celebration when she did this. Love your reactions!
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
I love the simplicity of this look and this song.
❤️❤️
Gosh this song was all over the radio in New Zealand ended up topping the charts. Her sound, look and choreography was so cool.
Madonna appeared on David Letterman at this time, does an interview and then sings "Don't Tell Me" on guitar. She was nervous as she had not played guitar in many years and was just starting to get back into playing.
Omg, she is so hott in this video🔥. Imo, Madonna looked the best she had ever looked in this video and in that era. I think its her whole attitude at this time. She seemed more settled, relaxed and confident in herself. I love everything about this video so much!!!! 😍
Completely agree - She looked amazing! ❤️❤️
Ladies I love the Madonna journey ya'll are on so fun the watch. Thank you both very much. So enjoy when I see a new video from the two of you. Again thank you
Aww, you're so kind - Thank you! ❤️❤️ And thank you for being on the journey with us. Sending lots of love your way!
Hi ladies. Love being with you on this journey. As your next single/video will be What it Feels Like for a Girl, let me suggest that your reaction include both the audio version and the music video. The video is stunning cinematically, but it is only a remix version with little lyrics. If you listen to the lyrics from the album version of the song first, it will help you understand how the music video beautifully reflects what the theme of the song is.
Excellent suggestion.
I totally concur - I came to say the same thing ❤
Yes, this! 👌
Excellent advice
I think I am the only fan who loathes the What it Feels Like video lol. It does not go with the song at all and I don’t like the remix. It’s a Dub and fun on its own, but not as the version used in the video.
Great reaction as always ladies. This song was originally penned by Joe Henry (Madonna's brother in law) but it was a very different version when he sent it to her - you can find it on UA-cam i believe. Madonna changed some of the lyrics and together with Mirwais then produced the country pop electronica version we have today 😊
As others have said, for the next song I recommend listening to the album version first of 'What it Feels Like for a girl' to get the meaning of the song and then watch the music video - as that is a dance version with very few lyrics!! Both versions are fantastic in their own right however ❤❤
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
And thank you for the info about Madonna's brother in law and the song lyrics - We'll have to listen to his version too!
Can't wait to hear the next song (both versions 😉)!
Madonna literally created lanes. By mixing genres to the masses! ❤
❤️❤️
LOVE your reactions I don't miss 1! Really enjoyed this 1 as well & just had to chime in that you guys HAVE to watch her perform this on Late Show W David Letterman back in 2000 it's the first time she plays guitar herself & sings an acoustic version of this song which is like having Madonna in your living room playing this song & singing it! It's AMAZING!!! Keep the great videos coming I am really enjoying watching your M journey!! ❤❤❤
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
And we can actually have Madonna playing the guitar and singing in our living room (or very close to it!)? Sounds perfect! Thank you for the recommendation. ❤️
One of my favourite Madonna videos. It’s all about that black cowboy shirt!! Damn!!
I believe her brother-in-law cowrote this song. At the time you could turn on a country station and hear Madonna playing. 😆
There is a very sweet live version of this from an appearance on David Letterman. She sits there with her guitar instructor, plucking out this tune and singing it so sweetly. You really should review this… including the interview!
Thank you for this awesome review ladies. Sounds like you’re both really liking the Music album! 😉
The Queen of Reinvention! 👑
See you for the next video.
Have a great day! ❤️
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
Love the idea of turning on a country station and hearing Madonna! 🤠
And we can't wait to see this Letterman performance - It sounds perfect.
Have a wonderful weekend! ❤️
I´m obsessed with this choreo.
A MASTERPIECE 👌 💯
THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT REACTION LADIES❤❤
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Excited you got to this album. Can’t wait to see your reaction to the What It Feels Like For a Girl video. One of my favs by her! Directed by her then husband Guy Ritchie. It’s crazy. PS. I feel like this song/video is one of your favs by her. I can tell by your reaction.
"I feel like this song/video is one of your favs by her. I can tell by your reaction."
And you are correct! Love everything about this one. ❤️❤️
It is true that what ever clothes she might be wearing, hairstyle she’d be rocking or music genre she’d be experimenting with, it always seems to suit her. I think the reason for that must partly be her confidence. And I believe she has the ability to dive into those different looks and genres so that she and her clothes and music are not separate things. She developes a character and she believes in that character. That’s why I think she is the chameleon she is.
So glad you loved the song and the video. Thank you for a great reaction once again.
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
"And I believe she has the ability to dive into those different looks and genres so that she and her clothes and music are not separate things."
Completely agree with you - Well said! ❤️
Don't forget to watch the music video for "Paradise(Not For Me)". It's amazing too!😍😍😍
ISSO É O QUE FASCINA OS FÃS DE MADONNA , ELA NUNCA SE REPETE , CADA NOVO ÁLBUM, NOVO VÍDEO, NOVOS ELEMENTOS E SURPRESAS IMPACTANTES. DIVA CAMALEÔNICA!!❤
Mais um brasileiro 😘🇧🇷
Amamos essa mulher❤
❤️❤️
After airing and watching the video premiere I ran to H&M to look for red cowboy inspired shirts and belts.
🙈
Perfect! ❤️❤️
This was NOMINATED for a GRAMMY for BEST MUSIC VIDEO - SHORT FORM... it LOOKS REALLY SIMPLE NOW but in 2001 it was 🔥 😊
❤️❤️
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REACTION!!!
I knew Brenda was going to absolutely enjoy and appreciate this artistic piece of music and video combination. I liked and enjoyed Madonna as a child/baby lol. When I turned 13 and her Music album came out this video made me appreciate her so much and of course the album. Enjoy for what’s to come.
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
We're really enjoying this album so far and can't wait to see what's next! ❤️ Big hugs to you!
That’s what Madonna did/does. Her sound was always unique and always her!! They called her Music album Electro Funk. One of her best albums, also one of her most underrated albums. I love Paradise not for me check it out. You can find the video that played during her interlude at the “Drowned World” concert. It was also truly amazing. Keep up the good work, ladies. J🙃
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
And thank you for the recommendation!
Electric pop country 😂❤❤❤
😂😂❤️
How amazing!! Love your reactions, as always. This song is so amazing, so well written and executed. Funnily enough I heard it playing at a supermarket two days ago, took me way back! Just a tip - when you get to ‘what it feels like for a girl’ - the music video and the song are two completely different vibes. Perhaps you can listen to the song on the album, as it is an offical single and then watch the video, as the video is a remix version of the song (and what an amazing video) but would hate you to not hear the lyrics of the actual song either, if that makes sense.
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
Love that you just heard this in the supermarket - How coincidental is that!
And thank you for the tip on What it Feels Like For a Girl! ❤️
As someone else said in the comments she performs it on the David letterman show with a guitar for the first time
There is a live version from one of the tours (Im not gonna spoiled which one) where this song left me speechless, I love this hole era, Music and Ray of Light are in a way sister albums.
Can't wait to see it! ❤️❤️
Before Cowboy Carter there was Cowgirl Madonna. Yes, this song and video are so good, she keeps on giving and when you think you know Madonna, there is a totally new sound and look. This era was such a joy to be a fan. The next single will be 'What it feels like for a girl' and I don't want to spoil anything, but ladies...the video version is totally different from the song on the album. I 'don't tell you' what to do, but I certainly recommend to listen to the original version too. There are more really beautiful songs on this album that were not released as singles like 'Gone', 'I deserve it' and 'Paradise (Not for me)' , just saying. ;)
Well said
Gone and Paradise Not For Me are two outstanding gems from this album-the messaging is profound and spiritual. These songs are in my 10 all-time fave Madonna list.
"The next single will be 'What it feels like for a girl' and I don't want to spoil anything, but ladies...the video version is totally different from the song on the album. I 'don't tell you' what to do, but I certainly recommend to listen to the original version too."
Thank you for the recommendation (and love the Don't Tell Me reference! 😉)! ❤️❤️ Can't wait to hear both versions!
@@OurAnxiousReactions The album version of What It Feels Like For a Girl is the one you need to react to first. The album version is COMPLETELY different from the video version because the video version eliminates almost all of the song lyrics because the video version is a high-energy electronica mix. You two will LOVE the actual lyrics, so please react to the album version.
The first time I heard it on the radio the DJ stopped playing the song and said they must have a faulty CD. A few minutes later they came back and said the CD actuallly had a note warning them about the sound cutting out. Erotica had a note about Surface Vinyl Noise as it was added in on purpose. Vinyl noise added isn't rare but the cutting out was strange at first.
Thank you for sharing that story with us! ❤️❤️
It's definitely confusing the first time you hear it! 😂
Freaking amazing. ❤💚💙💜
❤️❤️
Classic song~
I'm really glad you both appeared to enjoy the song and video. 👍🏼This entire album is very unique, and I have a strong feeling that Brenda will especially love it since she loved the Ray of Light tracks.
❤️❤️
A little curiosity In these days there is a video enlargement of the final ballet of this video where you can see Madonna stepping on the foot of a dancer and then their expressions are magnified after the small mistake
We'll have to look that up - Thanks for letting us know! ❤️❤️
This song and video are so addicting. I've loved it from the very beginning. The vocals are so up front , like the rest of the ⭐ MUSIC⭐ album. Cowritten with her brother in law Joe Henry. It stands as one of my favorites. The aesthetic fits her spot on. It was so exciting to witness this era as it happened. I think there may be a video on UA-cam of her album release party if you can find it. Thanks for the splendid reaction!!! You guys are awesome.
Aww, you're very kind - Thank you! ❤️❤️
We're really loving this era (so we can only imagine how fun it was to experience it in real time!). ❤️
Big hugs to you!
I love it when your cat starts hollering. 😂
Someone likes to make a cameo appearance! 😂
Easily one of her best videos. Directed by the fashion photographer Jean-Baptiste Mondino. Who also directed: Open Your Heart, Justify my Love, Human Nature, Love Don’t Live Here Anymore and Hollywood.
Brilliant work amd chemistry between the two.
They really created incredible videos together! ❤️❤️
I'm late to the party but i agree with you about her style changes. She won't just change her hair or clothes, but will totally become that look. The Erotica period was a classic example. i remember her describing it like how an actor becomes that character and changes the way they look and speak
Yes! Great way to describe her style changes. ❤️❤️
Love your reactions & support of Madonna (i do tell you!) 😉 sorry bad pun. Madonna making country cool 2 decades before Beyonce & Taylor (that'll upset a couple of folk 😅)
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
And love the pun! 😂
Love the R2 shirt! Keep up the great work you two!
Aww, thank you - You're very sweet (thank you for the shirt compliment too! )! ❤️❤️
I'm surprised you havent heard this. This is when i was alive, a child but still and over here this was a huge airplay hit as well as the video being super popular on the music channels. It also peaked at #4 on the US charts. She started a bit of a fashion trend with this video, all of a sudden cowboy hats and the whole outfit was very fashionable. Music was another great successful era for her with the first two single both peaking inside the US top 5, as well as the album going #1 everywhere in the world and selling over 10 million in less than a year. As i said the album had even much better songs than the singles in my opinion. Very eclectic sound.
We didn't really hear much popular music at that particular time, unfortunately - Our family was in the midst of our Disney era. 😂😂 Little Emily loved her Disney movies (and was obsessed with the soundtracks). ❤️❤️
The last song of the album is a nice ballad, "Gone", also guitar acoustic that more or less has the same message...therefore I think it's a very personal album, reaffirming herself and her belief...
"Turn to stone, lose my faith, I'll be gone before it happens"
❤️❤️
The first time I saw it was on the portable CD player and when the music started I thought the CD had a problem. Madonna Genius. She has literaly gave birth of Rocco, and the shape was impecable. This song is soft and different from anything that was playing in the early 2000s, fresh, cool, color video, just good times. I still have my single.....a lot of noise good remixes by Thundepuss
Can definitely see why you thought there was a problem with the CD initially! 😂
And wow. It's hard to believe anyone could look that amazing after just giving birth! ❤️❤️
I love this video. I absolutely love the choreography. It’s so good!
You MUST react to the acoustic performance of this performed on David Letterman. It’s the first time she plays the guitar to the public and is a MUST see! Vocally she’s awesome. You’ll see this in other tours as well performed like the video with choreography etc.
PS - I wrote this before I listened to you saying you want her in your living room playing guitar.
You wrote this before hearing that we wanted her to play it on the guitar in our living room?!!!!
That's wild! ❤️❤️
Can't wait to see this performance.
I hope y’all react to the Letterman performance.
2000sdonna yasssss
hi girls, for the live version of this song I suggest you watch MADONNA/ ON DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW/ 2000/ PERFORMS DON'T TELL ME/ THESHOW 2019/ because in addition to the live performance there is a small interview and madonna plays the guitar for the first time in front of an audience live on TV
Perfect! Thank you for the suggestion! ❤️❤️
4:00... FOLKTRONICA 😊
Thank you! ❤️❤️
This is absolutely one of my favourite songs and from an exceptional album. Love the lyrics and it always make me think about all the people who have tried to tell Madonna what to do, tell her to stop performing because of her age, stop dressing like that etc. I just love how she does what she wants regardless of what the haters say. She is always true to herself, such a great message and role model for all of us. I just love how much the 2 of you really get her. Yes, her look is amazing in this video and those dance moves Wow ! Love your interpretations and reaction.
Aww, you're always so sweet - Thank you! ❤️❤️
"...it always make me think about all the people who have tried to tell Madonna what to do, tell her to stop performing because of her age, stop dressing like that etc. I just love how she does what she wants regardless of what the haters say."
Absolutely! Well said. ❤️
Don’t tell me peaked at no.4 on the billboard hot 100 chart. She equaled the Beatles with her 34th top 10 single
Again she was ahead of the curve with the country crossover, but of course she gave it a pop twist. She was always willing to take calculated risks resulting in massive success.
❤️❤️
I am always impressed by the director's variety with Madonna. Jean Baptiste Mondino also directed Open Your Heart, Justify My Love, Human Nature and Love Don't Live Here Anymore. Each one is magnificent and they are all worlds apart from one another.
So true! Their collaborations are incredibly creative. ❤️❤️
back when they would still put out 5 mins singles instead of songs being only 2 mins out these days...giving them time to grow and make you feel something...
So true! ❤️❤️
I loooooooove this song and the video is simply iconic. I can’t say how many times I stood in front off the TV trying to dance along to the choreo when I was younger lol to this day whenever I listen to this song I imagine myself wearing a cowboy hat and nailing every step 😂 lovely reaction, girls ❤
Aww, thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Bet you do nail every step! 🤠
Oh Yeah! Amazing!
Everything about it. Thank you for your awesome reactions and your appreciation for Madonna aka Queen of Pop!❤️
#MegaMichiganMFan84
Aww, thank you for being so sweet! ❤️❤️
Madonnas electronica phase started with ray of light as electro pop. Then she did electro country on Music. Then you will see she does electro folk in her next era/album: American Life
You need to watch the video
Backdrop from the Drowned World Tour for “Paradise (Not for Me)” from the Music album. It is an amazing track and another genre from the Music era.
Been waiting for this one!!! ❤
❤️❤️
Hello American girls! Thank you for this step of Madonna's travel... I really loved this song, and the remix are very cools. Have a good day, thanks for your light, With kindness, The little Frenchy
By the way, for next video "what it feels like for a girl", you should listen before the album version, because the video is a remix version. I'm impatient you see this video, it was controversial!!!!
Aww, thank you for always bringing your love and light to us! ❤️❤️
And we're excited to see/hear the next one too (both versions!).
❤
❤️❤️
Easily one of my top 5 favorite Madonna songs. I believe folk-tronica is the name given to this fusion style.
Her brother in law, Joe Henry, a very accomplished folk singer/songwriter, wrote the original version. His wife heard the demo and suggested he show it to M. Obviously she recognized her sister's personality in the lyrics.
Gotta watch the David Letterman interview with her performance of this song for your dream to come true!
Meanwhile, I was busy shopping for vintage western shirts and big cowboy belt buckles lol.
So funny because only a few years prior she was making fun of Antonio Banderas, saying the only thing she didn't like about him was that he wore cowboy boots! Hhmmm.
"Folk-tronica" Love that! ❤️❤️
And the David Letterman performance sounds perfect! Yay!
"So funny because only a few years prior she was making fun of Antonio Banderas, saying the only thing she didn't like about him was that he wore cowboy boots! Hhmmm."
😂😂
Another great reaction to yet another classic M song and video, ladies! 🥰🥰 And you can get your wish about having M in your living room performing this song with a guitar if you watch her 2000 David Letterman interview/performance! ❤️
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
Sounds like the perfect live performance for us to watch- Can't wait to see it! ❤️
Oh, by the way. If you imagine what it would be to have her playing this song on a guitar in your living room, you have to check out the live version of it on Letterman! It’s just her and Monty playing it unplugged!
I just recommended the same!
Yay!! Can't wait to see it! ❤️❤️
PS I love that you're having fun with this, but I can't wait until you hit the Confessions of a Dance Floor album.
I do remember this song and I definitely like this one, thanks
Thank you! ❤️❤️
Awwww you guys!
Loved your reaction (as always) ❤❤
This song is so impressive imo
This era including the tour is one of my favourites. ❤❤
Thank you! ❤️❤️
We're definitely loving this era too. Big hugs to you! ❤️
I was still living in the UK when this came out, and my family weren't exactly Madonna fans (I was, first single I bought at 5 years old was Madonna). I remember my family being absolutely obsessed by this song and music video.
It's songs like this that make you understand why album is called "Music" She has country, folk, eletronica, and classic vibes in one song. And it works!!!
Your first single at age 5 was Madonna?!!! You were clearly a five-year old with excellent taste! ❤️❤️
"It's songs like this that make you understand why album is called "Music" She has country, folk, eletronica, and classic vibes in one song. And it works!!!"
Very well said! ❤️
@@OurAnxiousReactions oh I meant to type 8, not 5 lol. But still yes, I was an early starter. It was Dear Jessie, because I was so obsessed with the song (and loved the single cover).
As with Music, another one from this album that still sounds fresh today.
Yes! ❤️❤️
Love u girls u are the best
Aww, you're very sweet - Thank you so much! ❤️❤️ Sending lots of love your way!
Love y’all’s reactions so much. Look everyday for a new reaction video. Ty.
Aww, you're so sweet - Thank you for being here with us! ❤️❤️
Performed so well in Drowned World Tour! (Hint)!!! Written by Madonnas sister Melanies Husband Joe Henry .. Thank You Ladies!
Aww, thank you! ❤️❤️
And we'll be reacting to Drowned World Tour very soon!
@@OurAnxiousReactions Great I haven’t seen it in a long time. Ive wanted to watch it but i was waiting to see if you were going to do a reaction. Glad i waited. There is a significant meaning behind Drown World and you touched on it briefly i believe with the Nothing really Matters video. Be Ready!!!
Can't wait to see it! ❤️❤️
Great reaction, I have so much fun watching you ladies. Next video is one of my favorites, can’t wait 😆
Aww, you're very kind- Thank you! ❤️❤️
Sounds like a great video. Can't wait to see it!
I can't wait til u watch the tour for this album. Drowned world tour it's amazing
We're excited to see it! ❤️❤️
ACOUSTIC VERSION ON LETTERMEN!!!!!!!!!
❤️❤️
The song was included in three of Madonna's concert tours: Drowned World (2001), Re-Invention (2004), and Celebration (2023-2024). In 2014, Madonna appeared on Miley Cyrus' MTV Unplugged special and performed "Don't Tell Me" in a mashup with Cyrus' 2013 song "We Can't Stop". You gotta watch that! I love your reactions. ❤️ She does an acoustic version on the David Letterman show with her long time touring guitarist and teacher.
Aww, you're very sweet - Thank you! ❤️❤️
And thank you for the recommendations!
Great video! I think for the video of “what it feels like for a girl” you should also watch a lyric video because the song that’s used in the official version is a remixed version and doesn’t use much of the lyrics but the video is important and the album version is too! Just my thought! ❤
Thank you so much for the suggestion! ❤️❤️
Hiya - Who else can make Boot Scootin look so hot and cool, even glamorous?
Madonna co-wrote the song with her brother-in-law and singer-songwriter, Joe Henry. He also collaborated with Madonna on "Jump" and "Confessions on a Dance Floor" and others. In an interview we watched together (lol), Madonna shared that she would often visit her sister and brother-in-law with their children when she felt lonely and needed support.
"Who else can make Boot Scootin look so hot and cool, even glamorous?" Exactly! ❤️❤️
"In an interview we watched together (lol)" Love that! ❤️
Electro funk country
Yes! ❤️❤️
It’s funny that you thought the song was skipping at first because many people returned their CDs to the stores at the time thinking the discs were skipping.
Can definitely why they thought that! 😂
Once again Madonna here defied her detractors who’s been stereotyping her as mainly an urban pop dance music artist. She seamlessly melded electronica and country rock to create this music, with all the other artistic elements fitting so well: the defiant and rebellious messaging of the song not only fits her artistry but it also evoked the traditional ethos of the American cowboy; the costumes, a bucking Appaloosa horse, the mechanical bull, the amazing line dancing, the dusty open space reminiscent of the southwest cowboy country-all conjuring a traditional American country western cowboy vibe. As one music critic aptly wrote that Madonna here have “revolutionized the cowboy chic”. Lest people forget, she’s from the MidWest and here she’s succeeded in capturing another unique sound and iconic image in her deep catalogue of songs and artistic personas. ❤ your reaction and insight to this mv.😊
Aww, thank you so much (as always)! ❤️❤️

Perfectly said! And completely agree. Madonna has this incredible ability to constantly create something new and exciting but always in a way that feels authentic and genuine. ❤️
First time Madonna ever performed "don't tell me" live . She did a nice acoustic version where she also played the guitar herself on the David letterman show . She admits she's nervous on the guitar , but she does very well and this version she does is stripped back and her voice comes through melodic and beautiful. She’s dressed & looks & sounds like a seasoned country artist, she comes across so warm & funny and has a nice humility about her .🥰Check it out below 🥰;)

Sounds amazing - Can't wait to see this! ❤️❤️
And thank you for the link!
I’m surprised you haven’t seen this video before as the song was a big hit in America in 2001
We were in our Disney era (If it wasn't on a Disney soundtrack, we probably didn't hear it). 😂❤️
When you react to What It Feels Like a for a Girl -I would highly recommend listening to the album version and the video version -as they are both completely different. The album version is more country the video remix well what can I say other than say it's a completely different do anything she has ever done and I mean that in the best way!!
Thank you for the recommendation - Can't wait to hear both! ❤️❤️
Brenda your wish of watching her playing that song on the guitar is going to come true very soon! 😊
Next you should watch her performance of the song on the David Letterman Show!
ua-cam.com/video/iTFZh-OeCxs/v-deo.htmlsi=FMKIN7ea3_ftF2gj
Yay!! Thank you for the link! ❤️❤️
This reaction you had at the beginning of “I didn’t know that was on purpose!” When the song breaks was exactly how we all reacted when we first popped that cd in the player back in 2000 😅 now imagine that effect on Nobody’s Perfect, also from Music album… we all thought the cd was faulty! 😂😂😂
Nobody is perfect is a Madonna’s favorite. What a great song !
😂😂
It’s funny you both thought there was a glitch in the beginning, me and my bestie both managed record stores and people were bringing their cds back saying they’re skipping. lol. We said no , that’s intentional
Can definitely see why they were confused (like us!). 😂Must've been a nightmare as a record store manager though!
if u wanna different sound, get ready for What It Feels Like For a Girl, the next video. directed by her then-husband Guy Ritchie.
❤️❤️
The next video has a lot, a LOT of influence from Guy Ritchie, her husband at the time and makes films about beatings, mafia, etc. The song in the video is NOT the album version, but rather a remix of Above and Beyond that became very famous, like the remix of It's not Right But It's ok by Whitney.
Very curious to see this video (and hear the album version of the song)! ❤️❤️
