Who's still crushing on madonna in 2023

[jjh]

If you ask me, this was the track that made her go from Madonna to MADONNA. It was vastly different than anything she had ever done to that point and it was her first “reinvention.” This was when you knew she was going to be around for a long time.

Her best song, no questions asked! Madonna Forever!

True Blue is an incredible album! So many hits along with this incredibly sad ballad. I listened to it over and over. 😮😊

[anaferraz]

What I love about this performance, although all the vocal issues, is how she delivered herself. It's very emotional. And, of course, she is absolutely beautiful. We cannot stop looking at her. She is a singer and an actress. So artistic.

First time I heard this, I was 11 or 12 living in Moscow, and did not understand a word. But got instant chills. I still get instant chills to this mind-blowing masterpiece.

This is the song that got me hooked. As a young gay boy, this really spoke to me. Tears as I type this. Forever Madonna and Thank You @madonna

This song still gives me the chill, even almost 40 years later ❤

[mariagkialpis]

Most beautiful song she ever wrote... ❤️

She sounds good in live. Still to this day, my favorite song to listen.

My favorite since I heard it 33 years ago. I was 13 and this song already gave me shivers even if I didn’t understand a word…it was her first world tour, she was a young singer. Her voice was raw yes but she used her emotions to sing live without anything else. Love it.

This version of Madonna is my favorite of all time. This is a really difficult song to sing, and she didn't even want to do this originally for the movie. She's not a great singer, but she was more than just a pop singer. She was an artist, someone who lived in a beautiful time pushing boundaries. Her look here, her presentation in general, specially that hair. I was only 10 years old, but I was in love. I still am, and this live version deserves to be saved in the national archives. What a great team behind her and what a smart vision she had for her artform. By the time Like a Prayer (the album) dropped, they had mastered the formula and Like a Prayer exploded into eternity. "Live to Tell" is breath-taking, and along with "like a prayer (the song), " I was so in love! How I remember you, Late 1980s. Nothing felt the same in the 90's or ever after that when it came to her music, but I will always love you.

Everybody have a secret to hide! we all can relate to this song!

[peepallgame]

this is a great performance. its really raw it shows how far she's comes in her journey. Very accomplished entertainer.

[because]

One of my favorite songs of Madonna
Love this era of music

[dan_leo]

Musically speaking, this is in my opinion the best arrangement of Live to tell, all the other versions that came after are not comparable.

[thiuefs]

Apart from all the paradoxes, Madonna was, not today, an extraordinary artist ... beautiful vocal, performance and so beautiful ... this song is splendid, with progressive footprints, intimate, dark romanticism, a beauty that the current generation does not dreams of knowing and lives with crumbs like Beyoncé, Lady Gaga and etc ...

[cocopops]

*this song just gives me the shivers.... It's so beautiful....she needs to use that 80s sound*

[PC-ivso]

Watching her sing in a lower register.. that even has said she didn't like.. is even more special. I think she sounds fantastic.
