Fun look back. I loved this era and personally believe it produced the greatest Madonna tour I have ever seen. Confessions was simply EPIC. And I’ve seen — and very much enjoyed every tour since I finally saw her sing live via Drowned World.
Not only did I adore Confessions as an album — but she brought out some oldies I’d long given up on ever seeing her sing LIVE… Lucky Star, Like a Virgin… but the real stand out shocker was… Erotica/You Thrill Me. Not to mention her up on a mirrored cross while belting out Live To Tell. Confessions was the tour or tours I think looking back. Yeah… It truly was just simply flawless.
Stuart Price had plenty to do with that.
Funny, I never thought they had a huge falling out. They certainly sound very friendly here. And the tale of Hung Up is definitely one worthy of being told. They clearly enjoy telling it, too. So much collaboration. Be fun to see them reunite somehow. His live arrangements were fantastic.
