The beauty, the upbeat music, the fans, the grace, the glamour, the superb choreography, the dancers, the stage setting, the awesome clothing, the greatest talent of pop of our times (no one has even reinvented themselves as successfully as Madonna, not even Jacko) all of this condensed in just 6:21 memorable mins. This is by far the best video/live performance I have seen in the last 30 years. Before this, the 70's. After this, nothing yet. (What? Britney? Aguilera? Come on! Just not as much)
OK, this is one of her iconic songs more so than ANYTHING she has done this decade. Noone had the juevos to try anything this over the top and make it look like she did. This is truly one of the most creative and memorable performanaces in VMA history.
Maybe, Puffy's version of Ill be missing you and including Sting comes close...thats really it.
It isn't coke that they are sniffing... back in the 1700 and 1800's they had a tobacco product called snuff and that is what they were sniffing... totally in keeping with the time period of the performance.

Woah... this is bad performance! Wtf I wonder who come up with the concept they look like there from the 1800s! I have just become a madonna fan with Confessions On A Dance Floor! I can see why none of her albums in the '90s weren't as sucsessful as the ones in the mid '80s and '00s!

Umm no in the 90's not one of her CDs opened first week at #1 ever since MUSIC in 2000 she has opened at #1 Ray of Light is her only really sucsessful album of the 90s

W/E! You have your opinion and I have mine... I don't give a shit if it's from the 1700's or 1800's... I DON'T LIKE IT!!! If someone tried to perform with that concept today on the VMA's they would be booed of the stage!
SO, I CANT SPEAK VERY WELL ENGLISH, BUT I CAN SPEAK SPANISH BECAUSE I COME FROM ARGENTINA... SO... IF YOU WANT TO COMMENT, PLEASE DONT SPEAK AN ENGLISH VERY DIFFICULT, RIGHT? =S

I am so glad these stupid dancers are gone. At 3:53, see that "bead" fling out of her hair? I love that, don't know why, just do!
Anyway, I digress, Donna DeLory is okay, but that Nikki bitch ALWAYS got on my last nerve.

This is an iconic performance, if you can't see that, and you think this is a bad performance, then I wonder how you can call yourself a Madonna fan.
By the way, it's the 1700's, get your historyfacts straight. Plus Madonna scored her biggest hit in the '90's (Take a Bow).
