Madonna: The Confessions Tour Live from London

The reason why Madonna is known for being the queen of pop. Amazing concert.

This show was so exhausting to watch and there are only two songs "Drowned World/Substitute for Love" and "Paradise (Not for Me)" where you can sit down and just contemplate it all. The opening of this show will go down in history as the most visually thrilling as Madonna enters the stage via a gigantic Swarovski crystal ball that comes down from the ceiling, and the video screens from behind it show images of horses galloping. Horses are in this show due to Madonna falling off one. The infamous scene with Madonna on the cross is in this show as a video screen counts to 12 million the number of how many African children are orphaned due to HIV/AIDS. At the end a website address appears for anyone interested in donating. We then go into the theme of the environment, and again images of politics and religion are shown. There's an interlude and then the show starts to the music of "I Love New York" and "Ray of Light", and this is where the dancers do their impressive hand movements. Towards the end there's "Music" with the song "Disco Inferno" mixed in, and the dancers make more of their presence known. The last two songs are full of energy as the show closes to the music of "Lucky Star" and "Hung Up", and many golden balloons fall from the ceiling before the phrase "Have you confessed?" appears on a video screen. The DVD's bonus content includes tour rehearsal footage, an exclusive photo gallery and a live CD.

Summary: Madonna's Confessions Tour is a visually stunning and thought-provoking show that addresses global issues like HIV/AIDS and environmental concerns. The tour features impressive dance performances and powerful imagery, culminating in an energetic finale.

The show was amazing and very professional. Madonna is a non-stop, dancing and singing for 2 hours. The opening was pretty good when she came out of the disco ball and also jump was a really good performance. The entire show was full of energy so it's kind of hard to say which were the highlights because every song had something special and unique. I saw live couple of her previous tours (Drowned world and reinvention tour)they were good but you can't compare with this one. The dancers were fantastic, the lights and the whole show were just perfect. Madonna still looks very good. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend you to see it. You'll enjoy the show from the beginning to the end. Madonna is still the dancing queen.

Years ago, with "Ray of Light," Madonna broke through to a truly amazing level of musical artistry, and since then she's occasionally transcended even her own standards. This concert production, with its hypnotic editing, amazing dancing, hallucinatory lighting effects, and trance-inducing arrangements, blows away all previous efforts. Madonna's apparent ambition -- to single-handedly bring about world peace through music and dance -- may seem hubristic or absurd to some. But hell, somebody's got to do it! Thanks to her assemblage of the remarkable talent of everyone involved in this production, "Confessions Tour Live from London" places her once again among the top ten artists working anywhere in the world in any medium.

Madonna has been rocking the boat for over 20 years, and with that comes a lot of experience -obviously- and a lot of knowledge. She was never the one to think about yesterday, au contraire, she seemed to know what is going to be popular tomorrow. She bravely takes all the new trends, technologies, and incorporates them into her own acts. Her world tours have never been 'average'. When Madonna performs, she gives 120% - everything is bigger, better, theatrical and meaningful. She takes inspirations from East, West, and makes then unique. Everything is given a deeper meaning, and The Confessions Tour is not different. From the very beginning, you find yourself sitting on the edge of the chair. She starts with bang, then she does brave circus poses on a horse high up in the sky, she does everything she can to entertain you. She remakes her own songs, giving them a modern feel. She sings on a disco cross, she almost comes in the middle of the stage, and with her amazing dance crew that know no dimensions of fear, the show is absolutely more than you bargained for. It's a spectacle, an audio-visual orgasm that cannot be put in words. Lucky are the ones who actually experienced seeing Madonna on stage. Pushing fifty, she is still in an incredible form. Recent Sticky and Sweet Tour is even more ground-breaking, which proves nothing else, that Madonna was, is, and ever be the one and the only queen of pop.
