I'm out of breath just watching this - how can she sing and dance like that she's great

[leokimvideo]

Madonna in her prime, honestly it doesn't get any better than this

[bounded]

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.

[MrX-wdcm]

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.

[kurtisschilk]

Madonna of the 1980's was truly badass. Sing, dance, beautiful, charismatic. She really did rule the 80's

[marmavit]

She's the last surviving of the pop megastars of the 80's... long live the Queen!

[kdpba]

I have zero regrets for growing up during this period. What a time to be alive.

[ProfRage]

I took her for granted back then.. But looking back..she SANG LIVE, was IN KEY, and PERFORMED. Maddie is a musical giant and a TRUE ICON.

[retrosound]

I am 51 and I feel like 14 now.
The 80s. The best time ever.

[fabiana]

3:26 left the tambourine, took the mic, did a spin and started singing without hesitation

totally amazing

[igotyourback]

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!

[dylanthuong]

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 .

[MsCaribeana]

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 ❤️🙏

[sybyrtube]

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.

[deboraharichardson]

Well I'm 67 and I still get into the groove with Madonna❤

[gbxgbxgbx]

I hail Madonna - actually singing, hitting the notes, dancing, basically doing cardio on stage, not loosing breath. :O wow.

[dawna]

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!

[dayaneoliveira]

I am 20 years old, and I found this today; I've lost count of how many times I've visited. Madonna I'm hypnotized 💘

[cmilus]

She was pure charisma here. Overflowing stage presence.

[michaelrodriguez]

What a fantastic year. 1985.
I was 20 years old. Best time of my life.
The Roaring 80s!!!
