Devil Wouldn't Recognize You S&S Performance

[madgefan 10,236]

I'd never say the Sticky & Sweet is my favourite Madonna tour for a lot of reasons. Despite having the opportunity to see her live for the very first time (and very close to her stage), there were things that, in my opinion, were not on pair with other concerts she did previously. However, as anything Madonna has ever done, there were GREAT moments and the performance of the song Devil Wouldn't Recognize You is one of them. The effect caused by the extraordinary cylindrical screens was amazing. I remember all the people around me (fake posh in general) were open-mouthed It is definitely one of the best songs on Hard Candy and should have been released as a single, no matter if it was labeled as 'Cry Me a River (Part Deux).

yes i love this performance...  but especially after the screen comes up though

The song is my favorite from HARD CANDY. Definitely should have been a single and probably would have been a huge top 10 hit around the world. I know fans say that the Timbaland/Timberlake sound was tired by this time, but it seemed every year before the release of HARD CANDY there was was a song with a similar feel that was huge. I felt like this could have been her "Take A Bow" of the album.

 

The tour to me was awesome. I feel she outdoes her self with each tour. Of course, I fall back on Blond Ambition as my favorite, but that is simply because it was my first live experience with Madonna.

Couldn't agree more. It was one of my parts of the SS tour too. I also loved the lead into it too. *sigh* theatrical, creative, and it fulfilled my Oriental cravings. Stunning ....all of it!!

I love at very end when they start walking slowly, and yes those cylindrical screens are really amazing, the 3d effect is mind blowing, like here in the opening of I love New York

Devil is definitely a highlight of the show (along with Vogue/4 minutes mix).

 

And then Gaga totally copied it with her Monsterball Tour stage & screens during "So Happy I could die".

But it doesn't matter to anyone cause Gaga CAN sing and she's way more creative and artistic,

oh yeah, but I already know she stole the HC look... I thought she had done the Devil performance, though she did once wear a cape like the one on the performance. Anyways who cares, its not 2009 to be talking about this girl.

It would've been nice to see and hear wha it would have been like if it was still included on the Reinvention Tour setlist.

Once upon a time I really didn't care for Hard Candy or the Sticky & Sweet Tour, I was watching it online for the Rain/Here Comes The Rain interlude and oh my god it finally just clicked with me.

 

The performance was everything especially with the beat in the middle where she's taking off the cloak.

you're talking abou gaga????

baby all of you are so obsessed....

[rlittler81 1,640]

Yeah, this performance is definitely one of the highlights of S&S! The weird video intro? Yeah, I still don't get that.

I kinda like it when the cylindrical screens go up and we see Madonna and the pink outfit, but while she's behind them it all is very uneventful. The song itself is what keeps my attention, not the performance. I'm not very keen on this one.

This was my favourite part of the show - beautiful and simple with a bit of melodrama thrown in - the rest of the show was pretty much hit and miss - low point being rock version of hung up and ITG where she was humping the stage ?? wtf :(( embarrassing to watch :((

[Bat-Fan 1,197]

Beautiful performance. Honestly I dont get the sticky hate, it has a few stinkers, like Human nature, borderline and hung up but mostly it is a very entertaining show with a nice setlist and so full of energy.

 I think it was one of the most entertaining parts of the show, and I agree the rock guitar sections were the worst
