The Celebration Tour 2023 (Greatest Hits)

[straightorbroken]

All those beautiful black and white pictures. This has got to be one of the most haunting and beautiful spectacles she's ever produced.

 

[straightorbroken]

I do wonder if she got clearance from families and estates, etc. I know Luther got pulled.

 

[straightorbroken]

I don't remember waiting so long for songs. Was I high breathing the same air as her? Like A Prayer has finally began golden showering me.

 

[straightorbroken]

I can't believe I'm passing on a grindr meet for this. No, I can, but still.

 

[straightorbroken]

Didn't pick up on the purple Prince solo either. Makes me think of that short-lived phase she had for that speech where she'd list famous people who are dead to pat herself on the back for not being dead.

And again, didn't heard the let's go crazy bit to Living for Love. Or LFL.

 

[straightorbroken]

Erotica now. Give it up. The wig really does age her. From behind I was thinking in a parallel world this could have been Tracy Shaw.

 

[straightorbroken]

You Thrill Me is one of the most gorgeous melodies she's ever had.

I wonder if it feels creepy for her re-staging the LAV Incline bed moment.

What a shot of her for "so now what?" This is sublime.

 

[straightorbroken]

Very GALA Taste of Me video actually.

 

[straightorbroken]

Hung Up is volcanic.

 

[straightorbroken]

Floormungous.

 

[straightorbroken]

The humidity actually has the wig looking better than when she first appeared with it. Bad Girl on now.

 

[straightorbroken]

Hair flicking gorgeously to this. BG is rather waltzing.

 

[straightorbroken]

I don't know the kids names, but DJ daughter is just too cute.

 

[Suedehead]

Sensational!

 

[straightorbroken]

Vogue is a high I'll forever be in freefall from.

 

[straightorbroken]

I've splat.

 

[straightorbroken]

That entire audience must be in an entranced collective-coma'd sway. Crazy for You.

 

[straightorbroken]

Mother totally serving for DAD.

The strings are something else.

 

[straightorbroken]

I actually don't think it's coming across well with how it's shot, but still an in-the-venue highlight.

 

[straightorbroken]

Beyonce should have covered Don't Jolene Me.

 

[Suedehead]

BAD GIRL is something else

 

[straightorbroken]

This little light of mine

 

[straightorbroken]

Express Yourself really delivering in strum form. And I hated it on MDNA.

 

[straightorbroken]

This is anchoring the entire show. The whole audience all in love with each other right now. Another cloud of coma being breathed in right now.

 

[straightorbroken]

Kind of gutted Olga De Souza wasn't the Voguer now that I'm coming to a bit and acid rocking.

 

[straightorbroken]

Disco drum epilepsy commence: Music.

 

[straightorbroken]

And the iconic moments kept rolling in.

 

[straightorbroken]

Brazilian adverts time. I wonder if GALA bagged a spot - she does heaps of PAs there. Probably kindly cleared her schedule for Madge right enough.

 

[straightorbroken]

SHE'S... MEAN

 

[straightorbroken]

"But cha are Madge, cha are" would have been a brilliant new bespoke quip from CHER there of course.

 

[straightorbroken]

This undulating RoL is such a peak. It's came from another realm. Transcendental.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh they're getting Rain. Luxuriant.

 

[straightorbroken]

Never liked the MJ moment - it panders to the casual audience very well I guess. What does amuse me is that the Madge silhouette is much more Cyndi mannerisms IMHO.

 

[straightorbroken]

The non pitch-raised vocals are a delight however.

 

[straightorbroken]

MJ who hated her. She can't not love this

 

[straightorbroken]

I've came to love the face-bra veil wig whatever. Can't say the same about BIM. I used to find that saw-effect really horrifying.

 

[straightorbroken]

Actually, the song is now perfect.

 

[straightorbroken]

THAT.

WAS.

INCCREDIBLE.

 

[Joseph]

I’m watching the live stream. It’s an excellent show. I still hate that fucking wig

 

[Suedehead]

It really was a historical moment. I cried
