Madonna Confessionsx$20.98
  (10 reviews)
Best Price: $39.95 $20.98
Photography and introduction by Guy Oseary Every time I do a show, I die a little bit, but no shit is worth doing unless you¹re willing to die for it. --Madonna Madonna Confessions is the first official, inside book on the most famous woman in the world since the 1992 release of the landmark monograph Sex. With over 250 never-before-seen images taken by Guy Oseary and personally approved by Madonna, the photographs featured here showcase the provocative themes of her live performances -- from equestrian to urban Bedouin, and from glam punk to disco fever -- and celebrates what The New York Times called "the sheer spectacularity of her physical form." Enhanced with Madonna's short, sassy interspersed quotes, Confessions is a matchless, must-have record of one of the highlights of her career.

The Confessions Tour In AMAZING Pictures
By A2V2XET6WEPJ0Q on 2008-10-16
When I went to Madonna's 2006 Tour "The Confessions Tour" I had no idea what to expect. I had heard mixed reviews of the tour but I knew that Madonna would not disappoint her fans (she never does).
From the beginning to the end the show was spectacular. The show was mostly comprised of songs from Madonna's 2005 album "Confessions on a Dancefloor," but, you still heard some old favorites like: "Like a Virgin," "Live to Tell," "Ray of Light," "Drowned World/Substitute For Love," "Music," "Erotica," "La Isla Bonita," and "Lucky Star." As Madonna has done for each of her tours each section presented a different element; the 1st one contained Madonna in a jockey outfit even going so far as to ride on one of the dancers & doing stripper moves on a moving merry-go-round. The 2nd section brought some spirituality to the show w/ the controversial performance of "Live to Tell," in which Madonna was on a 3-D Cross (awesome). The 3rd section saw Madonna rocking out on her guitar w/ "I Love NY," & "Ray of Light," & going on a rampage on "Let it Will Be." In the final section Madonna brings us back 2 the 70's w/ remixed disco versions of her songs "Music," (which sounded a lot like "Disco Inferno")"Erotica,"(this version was better than the original version), "La Isla Bonita," "Lucky Star," and finally her hit song "Hung-Up," which ended w/ Madonna asking the audience "Have You Confessed?"
Now I know Most of U R reading this and asking "when is he going to talk about the book?" well the book was photographed by Guy Oseary (a long time BFF 2 Madonna) and the book is comprised of photos that he took of Madonna on her "Confessions Tour," each song has a different photo and as somebody who appreciates photography I must say he did a phenominal job. Madonna has never looked so great on Tour. If you R a big fan of The Queen of Pop & LOOOVED the "Confessions Tour," I strongly recommend you get this book.
Oh, and if you buy this book your money will go 2 Madonna's Raising Malawi Foundation. So, your money will be going to help a great cause.
I also recommend you get "Madonna; The Confessions Tour," Live CD/DVD and watch "The Confessions Tour."
Weak Effort
By A3FV5D7EHA6BE0 on 2008-10-20
When I initially saw this item for pre-sale, I immediately pre-ordered. Well, I just received the book this week and quite frankly, I wish I had not ordered it. There is nothing new about the photos contained within the book. There are no descriptions of any of the photos. Guy Osprey has been friends with Madonna for the majority of her career and also heads Maverick Records. I would have expected some interesting insight into the photos that he had taken. Seriously - don't waste your money. If you feel a need to make a contribution to Raising Malawi, then contribute the cost of the book direct to the non-profit organization. It would do your heart good.
A valentine to fans and the show
By A1N921DD0NA9VU on 2008-10-23
This photo journal does exactly what it should. It gives you fantastic images of a once in a lifetime concert experience. This book is simply a valentine to Madonna fans and those who attended the show.
Awesome book!
By A3BTB98V2ETJ0R on 2008-10-28
This book is just perfect. It basically what I was expecting, tons of photos from one of the best shows I have attended ever! It really takes you back to that night when you saw the concert live. Each photo has the date and city where the photo was taken. It's a great book for anybody that went to the concert or is a Madonna fan.
NADA NUEVO, GRAN DECEPCIÓN
By A16IDTH9EX6G0U on 2008-11-05
Totalmente decepcionante, no hay apenas textos, solo frases sueltas, no son fotos bien realizadas, están quemadas y el montaje no es ni creativo ni interesante. Mucho mejor los de la editorial WHY NOT , realizados por fans!!! De verdad no gastéis ni un duro en este libro que llega fuera de tiempo y no se lo merece en absoluto. Advertidos estáis!!!!
