I Gotta Confess This!

I know most of you will be so jealous of me, but I can't help but to say, "Yes! I have finally seen Madonna in concert" (since we missed her in Cochella Music Festival). The thought of me going to Madonna's Confession concert didn't actually sink into my brain until the very few last minutes before the show started. I wasn't particularly excited about it as there were so many things happened in my life lately, but it didn't hurt to boogie-woogie with my Honey and 16,000 other fans!

With the LARGE sum of money that Brian paid (Maddy ain't cheap!), I think the seats weren't that fantastic. We were slightly high up and about maybe 80 meters from the stage, but we paid the same amount of money as those who were up front and near the stage (like 4 feet!). But the good thing is, we could see the whole view clearly, so I shouldn't be complaining.

The whole concert started out with Madonna hidden inside a huge disco ball. As the dancers started appearing on the stage, people screamed and clapped with anticipation. The disco ball then opened up to reveal the sexy yet elegant Madonna. You can say whatever you want, but at the age of 48, she looks stunningly amazing than some in the 30s or even 20s. Thanks to the hours of yoga and pilates that she's been practicing so religiously.

She did most of the songs in her Confession on A Dance Floor album, but also covered some old songs like "Like A Virgin", "La Isla Bonita", "Ray of Light" (which was fucking awesome), "Substitute For Love" and "Live To Tell", which we didn't expect it. In "Live To Tell", she was hung in a giant Crucifix, symbolizing Jesus. Symbols of other religions, which were made up of dots of red blood cells, were displayed on the huge screen. There was also a video montage where it showed clips of images of political people like George Bush, Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden, Tony Blair, etc, and also words like "Don't Talk" and "Don't Speak", with background music of "Sorry". Obviously, the lyrics of that song were meant to be political, and the message was clear.

I think the hottest song she did was "I Love New York"! Although the song sounds silly, she did it so differently from the album version and it's amazingly rock! She also played the guitar on her own, with her kick ass leather outfit. And of course, her first hit single "Hung Up" that shook the whole stadium crowds, which ended the concert...with no encore, unfortunately.

What I love about Miss M is her charismatic and energetic attitude and personality. You can tell that her vocal has improved, as she's no longer just a performer, but she could actually sing. Her dance movement, although didn't quite match Janet's, was perfected with her group of dancers. Madonna was definitely not selfish when it comes to showing off her yoga poses and body flexibility. She could actually put one of her legs up on her shoulder within split seconds...I think I still couldn't believe what I was actually seeing.

Among all the concerts I've seen so far, Madonna's concert is by far the most vibrant, mind stimulating and worth the money.

Two thumbs and one penis up for Maddy!
