I love those too. Lol to be honest I really just love the album.
What's everyones favourite album cover? Mine is probably MDNA or confessions. Least favourite is hard candy. My least favourite is also Hard Candy, but I also really dislike the Like a Prayer artwork.

With all this "imagining" of what would make a perfect tour how about this:
Madonna: The Regression Tour 2015 Opening: Holiday 2015 Song from new album (released Autumn 2014) Words/Give It 2 Me Medley Keep It Together/Why's It So Hard Music Hung Up Turn Up The Radio Video Interlude Rescue Me Song from new album Who's That Girl Pray for Spanish Eyes Nothing Really Matters Crazy For You Cherish/Superstar Video Interlude Dress You Up/Material Girl Into The Groove/Causin' A Commotion Song from New album Song from New album Live to Tell The Power of Goodbye Song from new album video interlude Open Your Heart Where's The Party Secret Love Profusion Song from new album I'm a Sinner/Ray of Light High Energy finale Still some people would complain there aren't enough hits! But what a terrific show it would be! |

I know it would have been great if we had a few more videos, we've already discussed the idea over the Spanish Eyes video
![]() Yeah Madonna will probably have problems singing these songs I imagine Spanish Eyes, Till Death etc as she hasn't done them since recording I think, has she ever done them live? and yes so so many video concepts and directions it is unreal! |

Considering she worked with Orbit, had songs about her identity/confessions, sampled previous songs in her new material and had font from Erotica and styles like the Erotica/LAP/COADF eras....it is surprising how many potential reinvented songs there may have been that didnt make it to the world tour.....but alas....theres always more and more shows for this tour to adapt and of course Madonna has a few more world tours under her belt too

What's everyones favourite album cover? Mine is probably MDNA or confessions. Least favourite is hard candy. Fave cover.....Like A Prayer cover...elastic love how dare you not :sleep:....also the Erotica pop art/Warholian feel is sublime....the Ray Of Light wind/oceanic/space feel behind it...very sci-fi, very beautiful, COADF...the idea of her as this colourful trippy figure caught in pose in a Dark Disco space and MDNA with the distorted face and high fashion look is so intense and sharp!Least favourite, i find Im Breathless a bit of a rush job using the Dick Tracey promos for artwork is a bit cheap, Hard Candy felt like a mish mash of ideas that never became truly realised. |

I think the reason why was because she was so caught up with Dick Tracy sadly I don't think she had the time maybe to do a little SNL set or something like that

Josh, under the Live Nation agreement, she is contracted to just ONE more world tour after this one. By the time she engages upon that tour she will be nearly 60 so there is, sadly, no guarantee she'll continue touring on the scale that she is now after her current contract ends.
But tbh she has also said so many times she will perform until she dies tbh...probably even beyond...again we will have to see where it truly takes us but i can see her really promoting into her 70s...only on grander scale than Tina Turner and Dietrich did of course :sleep:Again we will have to see....but there is so much potential out there for a plethora of possibilities. |

While Dick tracey is one of my favourite films ever tbh! I do agree that filming that and time spent on it really took up time on promoting Like A Prayer with more performances and potential releases from the album etc...but alas!

that looks a great lineup WIZZY-Meister!!!
I really dont know if there is truly a "perfect tour"....but there is so much potential for one heck of a lot...which is why its so hard...i mean there has never been and never be another MADONNA...its so tough to pick the right or "right" albums songs, previous singles to suit the tour and each era. i am also wondering if the next era will be mainly focused on album promo and then wait to go on tour till a bit after and then release another studio album and tour to promote both and really wait until both albums have momentum....and save everything (or have tour/s on pause) for a few years until there is so much more material/many more aspects to perform on such a massive scale tbh. Again we will have to see. |

Madonna reached number 1 at Easter 1989 with the single and album of Like A Prayer. Thereafter, due to her being a sought after artist, she was heard everywhere. The album promoted the BA tour and the BA tour promoted LAP, IB and Dick Tracy. The promotion that era was spot on, purely because of her 15 month absence then wooosh! She was everywhere! And, the songs that era were cracking too. A genius way of promoting. |

It was an important part of Madonna's career yeah because without it well Vogue, I'm Breathless and Blond Ambition would be non-existant! But still there's always thinking about what could have been...
Just imagine what the LAPWT may have been like without Dick Tracey too??? hmmm! i mean it would have been that landmarking scale of course as she had across 1989 really wanted to bring what she has learnt of Broadway to Music Theatre and make an unconventional Rock Show the new conventional utilising it with her latest material with her Like A Prayer album project. And Dick Tracey i think further pushed the potential for her to heighten the sheer scale of the tour production too. |

It was different in those days Josh. Like A Prayer was a hugely anticipated album. Madonna had been away since December 1987 and during a time when someone THAT successful was absent, anticipation for a new release was high. Also back then Freddy DeMann was her manager and he was clever by just releasing occasional news snippets about her to keep people interested. Then of course the song itself premiered some four weeks before the actual release on the Pepsi advert and a week later the video (official) was aired on MTV and all the furore started which was the best publicity Madonna could have had. Advance sales for the album (in those days you would go to your record store and pay for the album in advance to guarantee your copy) were huge purely down to the publicity.

Oh to have been around then to really have experienced it....also Like A Prayer off the back of that to have sold millions of copies too despite Dick Tracey taking up filming time etc/// these days it may kill an album project...and often has done i guess that is a parallel to how music was marketed and is today (or is not by some degrees!) |

:sleep:....also the Erotica pop art/Warholian feel is sublime....the Ray Of Light wind/oceanic/space feel behind it...very sci-fi, very beautiful, COADF...the idea of her as this colourful trippy figure caught in pose in a Dark Disco space and MDNA with the distorted face and high fashion look is so intense and sharp!
