Why she rehearsed this version in 2 occasions?

And in the concert, the pace of music was very slow

[Beto 707]

Maybe she tried to add in the Open Your Heart section.

She was obviously trying to find its footing into the show. She probably was looking to just perform on guitar but I am thankful for the finished product. Quite frankly the best way it could have been done. If only there was an official version of it, the album vocals are so processed that the acoustic version suffers.

I believe she says in one of the soundchecks that it was going to be part of the Olympia show in Paris.

Incredible how she wasn't able to foresee it was a fan favorite since the beginning. I cannot believe she decided to leave it out the final setlist of the MDNA Tour. Same happened with Ghosttown!!!

 

* I think this topic should be moved to the World Tours threads

She said she was trying "new things" for the Paris (Olympia) show.

I love this version!

I think if the version she rehearsed for Tears OF Clown is this one.

 

Hope she sings it next month!

What about her simply not liking these songs enough to perform them 80 times?

 

It's not like most of the lyrics come from her so they are probably not as special to her as some fans would think.

 

Then again she seemed to be into Nothing Fails and is still performing Don't Tell Me up to today so maybe she doesn't care about that.

^ What do you think of me seeing her play Spanish Lesson for the third time in a row?

 

S&S 2008

MDNA 2012

RH 2016

 

Of all the songs she could have added as a special bonus she chooses that shit of a song! 

[Elazul 250]

Well it's clear that when she has the choice, she goes with Candy Shop, Give It 2 Me, Spanish Lesson or an Evita showtune. She seems to prefer singing those songs over most of her discography.

[nobelson 153]

Guys, I'm sure it's in part because Spanish Lesson and Candy Shop are both originally already in lower keys. She slays those songs live. Same thing for the verses on Give It 2 Me, as the chorus is usually playback. Evita songs also are really suited for her voice. Love Spent on the other hand is the complete opposite. The album version is chipmunk-high, and she hasn't really done those chipmunk vocals since the 80s.
