What 3 Madonna music videos should I react to next? :)
What about three black and white videos still remaining unseen: Justify my love, Erotica and a little known masterpiece I want you?
"Oh father!" IS a must. "Bad Girl".
None of these videos are that impressive. At least not for Madonna's standards.
Don't you think it's time to react to a ballad? "You'll See" the follow-up to "Take a Bow".
Thanks again for your mesmerizing analysis.
@@mr_max_carneiro7090 he already reacted to both of them.
Open Your Heart, Deeper and Deeper, Nothing Really Matters
Open Your Heart, Rain, Nothing Really Matters, Music, Ghosttown, Batuka
What a reaction! The music video for Dark Ballet is one of my all time favourites and It’s definitely very relatable for so many of us LGBTQ+ members. Specially the moment in Mickey Blancos imagination where she walks up to all these religious figures one by one with her arms open, but instead she is laughed at and rejected. Yet she doesn’t allow that to get to her as we see in the second part of the imagination scene when she celebrates herself unapologetically. But personally, the moment that makes me very emotional every single time is the fact that she is still able to say “its a beautiful life” at the very end all while standing tall despite everything she’s been through. There really is nothing more powerful than the power of hope. Thanks for this beautiful reaction Eric
These three videos are from THREE different decades, incredible.
Wow…. Thanks for pointing out the ferry and the newspaper in Papa don’t Preach. You’re a clever so and so.
Thanks for reacting to Love Profusion. Underrated song. And your face at 7:30 is priceless.. lol. Marry me.
Bad Girl
Criminally underrated video and song
Again, you do the most thorough analysis out of Madonna's videos! Your channel's definitely worth subscribing to.
I couldn't agree more! Especially when you react to Madonna videos.
My favorite song out of these three is Love Profusion
Right,..seriously, stunning!
Her look in "Papa Dont Preach" is inspired by James Dean, as is the entire True Blue era. Sean Penn, her then-husband, was called the new James Dean. The True Blue album was dedicated to Sean.

I love when your videos appear on the timeline. You are very honest and accurate in your analysis, and you are always very kind. Hugs from Brazil!
open your heart, rain, and nothing really matters
Great dissection of the video representations of the videos. Especially Dark Ballet.
The first time i saw Dark Ballet i cried...Madonna does it better everytime!!!
I love to watch you,so cute and smart!!!!😊😉
You need to have 100,000 subscribers!
You could react to: La Isla Bonita, Don't Tell Me, 4 Minutes - they're not my favorites but it could be interesting) ;D
Cannot wait for the next one. No one does it like you.
Dark Ballet it's a audiovisual masterpiece
Boy,I really thought I got Dark Ballet,but the way you analyzed it made me appreciate it even more. 👍👍
Your the best reactor out there absolutely love your Madonna reactions.
As always, your reaction is one of the best ones I have ever seen on these videos. It simply is AMAZING how many concepts and ideas you are able to grasp while watching a music video, you are AWESOME!
As far as dark ballet is concerned, I don't know if it's just my imagination or not, but I have always thought that the scene with all those colors, when Mikky Blancos walks up to all those religious figures with her arms open (and she gets laughed at and rejected) looks a lot like the caricature of an inquisi.t.ion process... even the music changes a lot and seems like a "circus-like theme", as if the message was:they put me on trial, judged and executed me declaring they were serving God and his justice, but it was all a far.ce"...
Hope you understand what I am trying to explain (English isn't my first language!)... :-)
Your reaction to Dark Ballet was very interesting! Powerful video
Eric yet another wonderful Madonna reaction, I could listen to you non stop lol. Not only is your brain on fire but you are stunningly beautiful too. Any Madonna reaction is fine with me. Thank you so much and love from the UK x
The look for the papa don't preach video is a reference to one of her favourite actors Jean Seaburg, one of the many references she makes to European cinema albeit a subtle one.
Yay. Awesome to see the “Dark Ballet” analysis. Would love to see your views on “Batuka”, “Nothing Really Matters” and “Justify My Love” please.
Wow! I like where your mind takes you in your analysis. Such a fresh perspective in your interpretation of these videos.👍🏾
That was great. I loved your thoughts. I've been watching these videos for so many years and you just mentioned some things I've never seen before. Thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Amazing and insightful reactions as always.
I have another theory about one part of Dark ballet: all those women dressed in black standing in front of the fire are just the ghosts of women/witches who were burned at the stake before Mykki
It's wild to me that the interpretation of "Papa Don't Preach" has changed so much over the years. When it came out it was scandalous because it was seen to be promoting teen pregnancy. "Keeping my baby" was read very literally then. There were many protests and much hand-wringing over what dangerous messages we may be sending to our youth through popular music. Even the Pope spoke out against the song! Now it seems most, see it as a girl falling for a boy from the "wrong side of the tracks".
Awesome analysis , thank you Eric!
Nice work 🥰 you should react to Nothing Really Matters, La Isla Bonita and Don’t Tell Me
queen of pop
So glad your back reacting to the queen, we love Madonna and you xxx
Love your reacts, kisses from Rio de Janeiro
Rain,Open Your Heart & Dear Jessie.
Madonna ❤️🥰
Fever, Ghosttown, Batuka 🔥
Madonna did not write Papa Don't Preach. However, she recorded it, and she believed in its message. I think the message was neither for nor against abortion but more of a statement on teenage pregnancies and lack education on birth control. Madonna received a lot of criticism, but she made no statement about the song or her personal opinion on the matter. Some might argue that Madonna's song was encouraging promiscuity or influence sexual behavior because of the audience who receives it. However, the teenage pregnancy rate in 1986 was 107 out of 1,000 women (aged 15-19). My HS had like 3K students, let's say half were girls that is about 153 PG students that were mothers of 2 or 3 kids by 10 or 11 grade. There was a 20% decrease in teenage pregnancies after the song was released and that decrease held until the year 2000 (U.S. Teen Pregnancy Statistics, 2004). In addition, approximately 70% of students who get pregnant drop out of school. Madonna dedicated the song to the then current pope upon its release. Dark Ballet is truly art!
Nice! Thank you!
I enjoyed this
Madonna should hire you, your analysis is amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ur fan from Brazil 🇧🇷
Many people think the “baby” Papa Don’t Preach is the boyfriend, but no it’s a literal baby.
Also, Love Profusion has similar camera work to Tori Amos' Caught a Lite Sneeze video.
OMG! Can you do Tori Videos!?!?!?!?!?! PLEEEEEZE :D
Also interesting that the music in the "interlude" is from The Nutcracker, by a gay composer, Tchaikovsky...
Is he really? I never heard that one before.
Would love to see you revisit “Dark Ballet (Director’s Cut)” it includes more images of Madonna being present
Noting the black and white "jail cell bars" top in Papa Don't Preach. *Mind Explodes*
Eric 👏
Sooner or later live at the Oscars 1990!
Up
American Life (Original Version), Justify My Love, Human Nature
7:43 So basically you're saying Madonna's Love Profusion inspired the premise for Stranger Things ;)
Papa don't preach was one of the most famous Madonna scandals at that time, in the story her father wants her to abort her baby, but she decided to keep it and ask him don't preach about it
Batuka.
React to Tinashe-bouncin music video it’s fire
Why do people keep suggesting you videos that you already reacted to????
All they have to do is to search on your channel.
I find it kind of disrespectful to your work.
Maybe they forget ,its not a big deal!

Nothing Really Matters, Music, Erotica (uncensored), Ghosttown
