First Time Listening To REBEL HEART By MADONNA 

once a decade, madonna releases a masterpiece of an album: 1980’s: like a prayer 1990’s: ray of light 2000’s: confessions on a dance floor 2010’s: rebel heart 2020’s: loading…

It's a great pop album! So many good songs, very versatile sound, i love it. Melodic all the way through.

Rebel Heart is an amazing album, it’s probably the Madonna album I listen to most.

This feels like a “legacy” album, a lot of throwback and references to her past work, but using new (at the time) sounds, it's a decent album, i get why it could be a favorite for many

This album actually introduced me to madonna And yes...Avicii very much participated in production

The exceptional thing throughout Madonna's discography, and it's something that she is mainly responsible for, but not recognized for enough, is her melodic sensibility and the emotiveness of her voice. She has created or molded some absolutely beautiful melodies from the very beginning.

Favorite Madonna album since Confessions. Sonically diverse & packed with pathos. She was inspired and had so many catchy songs on this album. Bobs abound. Missing tracks: Auto-Tune Baby & Queen. It was so wild to be around Madonna and her family knowing that she had just dropped such a dope album.

every Madonna fan knows that every album is an era and is different from the rest.

Love this album #justiceforrebelheart ❤

I still can’t believe that people slept on Ghosttown and Living for Love, they are fantastic ❤

If there is a channel to watch reactions, especially Madonna’s, this is the one! Never disappoints!!

I'm listening it again after a while and it has aged so well!! It still sounds fresh, it has many iconic songs. I love this album.

This was my introduction to Madonna lol, well atleast her Music because I knew the name. I was 15 in High School when this came out and I noticed new Music by "Madonna" and I knew she was a Legend but never bothered listening to her before and was like "What the heck let's just listen" and I liked it very much and I've been following her Ever since

This album is fire and very underappreciated. Devil pray, Ghosttown, Inside out, Wash all over rme, Iconic and Joan of Arc are EPIC 👌👌👌ps, I added Devil pray and Iconic to my playlist in 2015 and lost 45kg in less than 6 months. Just something about those 2 songs... 🔥

Living For Love is Like A Prayer but on shrooms, love it

Hard Candy and MDNA were the first albums it sounded like she was chasing trends instead of setting them. Rebel Heart sounds fresh even today, it was a return to form

This album is one of her best and most underrated for sure. Still sounds so fresh and new. Wish it got the attention it deserved :(

The album is underrated. Because MDNA was pretty shit, people are like Madonna post 2008 is not good anymore but this is actually a great versatile pop album. Most songs are good to great. The ballads are classic Madonna. Joan Of Arc, Rebel Heart, Heartbreak city, Ghosttown are amazing, great lyrics too.

You need to hear the demo versions of this album, you’ll be surprised ❤

Rebel Heart is what happens when Madonna focuses on music and only music while making a record. She had so many other things going on while making Hard Candy and and MDNA and the albums suffered for it. But Rebel Heart was classic Madonna back on top of her game. Brilliant songwriting and sleek, forward-thinking production. I do wish she’d released more singles off of it, tho. Iconic and Holy Water absolutely deserved to be singles. And both songs are highlights on the subsequent tour. I loved this reaction video. I was thinking we might have lost you a bit after the last two album reactions. Haha.

I loved this album when I first heard it and still love it. It would’ve been a massive hit breaking records if she were under 50. The music industry and radio stations are ageist so they didn’t pay any attention to it as they should’ve. But critics did praise the record. And fans love it. Ironically, it’s the Super Deluxe tracks that have always been my favorites from the album. Guess there are some of us fans of those tracks so I’m glad she added them. I actually like them better than songs like Illuminati, Bitch I’m Madonna, Holy Water, SEX. So bottom line is this super deluxe album has something for everyone to like.

GRAFFITI HEART AND ADDICTED SHOULD’VE BEEN ON THE ALBUM. PERIOD.

Rebel Heart is such a great album. Such a shame that the album only sold 1 million copies worldwide and was the first album not to have a top 10 hit single. This was all due to Madonna being a 56 year old ageing Pop star.

Taylor, you're fun to watch. And good. Madonna reminds us she can go anywhere she wants. 👏 What a ride!... Thanks for taking this Madonna journey! One more to go and it is something to remember. Loved Rebel Heart and Madame X hit my spot! Thanks Madonna for never stopping. You've been on my radar since 1983 , been on this lifelong journey with you and I love you more than ever. F*** the criticism of late! Do this as long as you want. I think you earned it! Lol.... You sound amazing on Rebel Heart.

glad you’re back taylor

Ghosttown, Hold Tight and Heartbreak City are my top 3 from this album.

Holy Water is like the baby sister of Where Life Begins 😂

Shocked that you didn’t heart Ghosttown, my favorite track along with Wash All Over Me. Great reaction Taylor. I will join patreon soon, wanna see all your tour reactions. 🎉🎉🎉

Definitely my favorite Madonna album

This was the album that was geared to introduce her to the “next generation” of pop music fans who might not have known her previous work. Through the song selection, she was able to show the two major sides of her personality on this album - the “rebel” and the “heart”. Definitely one of her great artistic achievements.

I love how you go for like 6 months and then you come back all “well, where were we last week…” lmao, we're only 1 album left, i'm gonna miss these, looking forward your final ranking

The original version of the song Rebel Heart was so much better than this version that ended up in the album. Avicii never forgave Madonna for changing his production and discarding his work. And honestly, I understand him, his version was so good! What happened with that song is a tragedy.

Like N° 1.947... Believe me, I really liked your reaction; Thank you very much for choosing this magnificent album and knowing how to listen and enjoy it. Greeting from Argentina; You already have a new subscriber!

Rebel heart is an amazing album

Madonna produced Hold Tight herself. And she totally changed it from the 5th demo, which is amazing. Originally it was intended to be a 2CD album Rebel + Heart but the leaks fucked up the rollout. That’s why it has these many tracks and demos

Imagine if she had done ‘wash all over me’ with a gospel choir

I've been a big fan of Madonna since I was a child, the first era of hers that I followed in detail was Confessions, I was 11 years old 😃😂... I always thought it was her best era, in terms of music and performances, but then she released this album, and my opinion changed. Rebel Heart is my favorite album, right after Confessions 🥰 The vulnerability and love that she expresses in this album, the message of self-love and self-belief that she delivers, is, and always will be for me the best that she has delivered. I'm glad more people are discovering this side of her. Now get ready for Madame X!!! It's a very experimental album, but still a solid album and a good one.

I always like your reactions. Your awesome and hilarious!! Thnx T!! 👍💙👊Zane

This is a great album; edited and reshuffled to a thematically tighter 14 tracks, this could have been a classic.

This album is masterpiece my fav ones are Best Night, S.E.X, Holy Water, Iconic, Veni Vidi Vici

Best Night is my favorite track from this album!

You have to listen to Madame X, but I have to warn you, you will probaly not like it, first time hearing it, I *HATED* it the first time and I almost gave up on her, but listening to it and warming up to it, it grew on me so much. It’s my top 3 favorite albums by her, it’s so intresting and artistically diverse.

Rebel Heart is special to me because I saw her live for the first time on the RH tour - Iconic live was something magical, Messiah the interlude, absolutely beautiful, I was lucky the Like A Prayer was my surprise song too, a night I will never forget and in 39 days, I will be seeing her again on The Celebration Tour, this is the reason I am on the deep dive, thanks for the content! The MDNA shade though 😭 I love me some MDNA as a pre workout treat 🤩

holy water live is amazing!!

I am impressed, the Queen Did that . 30 years into her career. I cant think of anybody else achieving that. 30 years offcourse not a long time, But in pop culture it is light years.

natalia kills from cruel youth was the one who wrote holy water, she also did another song called trust no bitch with madonna, but it didn't make the final cut of the album, but the demo it's available here on youtube

Living for love, Unapologetic bitch and Heartbreak City, all written about the same guy… apparently!! One of my favourite albums that Madonna’s released in the last 15 years. A shame it leaked and she had to change a lot of the original versions, but it’s still a very good collection of songs.

Listen to the original versions of Rebel Heart and Wash All Over Me. I think they’re the Avicii versions. Give them a go….

Give the title track another listen - it is fantastic.

The Lyrics are strong and important to everyone!!!!!

Actually this album was hard produced by Avicii and his team, sounds and lyrics. But then Avicii got sick and left the project, so Madonna had to make new sounds with Diplo, Mile Dean and Kanye west. Also every song leaked one year before the album came out. You can also react to some Avicii demo from Rebel heart, and those demos are pure art, trust me

Madonna nunca decepciona es la Reina✨👑🙌🏼❤️

Can't wait to see your reaction on MadameX album..

Oh man, you didn't show your reaction to that one part on Holy Water. Come on, man. I was waiting just for that. 👎🏻

Please react to The Rebel Heart Tour, its absolutely amazing

Finally Taylor, was already worried about his disappearance. Thanks for coming back!

Bro, I have a perfect guide of reactions for you about this era: 1) Living For Love's infamous but brilliant performance at the 2015 Brit Awards (that one where Madonna falls at the stage) - 2) The Ghosttown video (very The Walking Dead vibes) - 3) And the demo versions of Rebel Heart and Wash All Over Me, the original versions made by Avicci but discarded after a leak. They are completely different (and better) than the versions that made it onto the album. 🤞

I love Rebel Heart.

Tragic girl and rebel heart demos are gems ..and I LOVE LOVE the leaked track “Queen”…just wow

Your reaction to 'S.E.X.' had me dying!! I was a little iffy about how you would react to this because "Rebel Heart" is such an all over the place working; it's experimental in some ways, beautiful in other ways, and forgettable in others. To me, I've always looked at it like she was making one of those painting art things where there are balloons full of paint on a wall and she was throwing darts to expose what was inside. A little all over the place, but the gems are really, really good. I'm *very* very interested to see how you're going to do with "Madame X", which is her most unique sounding album to date.

One of my favorite albums of all time. MASTERPIECE

Your reactions are so satisfying to watch. Genuine and succinct reactions and perfect pacing. Glad you liked this album! It’s her best post-Confessions album to me, but Madame X is bonkers, I’m sure you’ll appreciate it.

Such a strong album...despite the lengthy track list it never really flags 🔥🔥🔥

Unfortunately a lot of the songs were changed after the whole album leaked a long time before it was due to come out so Madonna felt she had to change stuff up to make it sound different from the leaks. It’s a shame because a lot of the OG versions were way better than the album versions.

41,000 people checked this video out to see Taylor react to MAdonna music. WOW. That is a testament to the power of Madonna, but Taylor gets alot of credit for being AWESOME too!!

I'm nervous about this one. This is one of my favorite M albums... I hope you love it..

Can you please do the tour drunk it was amazing last time 😂😂😂

I feel Madame X was her middle finger to mainstream pop after RH. She gave an excellent album that was neglected by the world so she decided to forego the mainstream sound and go for a completely experimental direction. The heart behind RH was that she just wanted to write good songs that could be played with just a guitar, while MX is the opposite, heavy autotune with a hybrid of cultures.

I was thinking about you two days ago, good to see you back! Rebel Heart is an experience.

The queen

As always watching you experience the music of Madonna is so much fun. I enjoy your honest interpretation of her songs. I enjoyed this album very much and I think she was robbed of more billboard hits because ppl were over her in a big way. Living for love, Ghosttown, should have been big. Glad to see you feeling this album like you did ❤❤❤❤❤

I love this álbum! I think it's underrated and deserved more diffusion!

Rebel Heart is another great record by the Queen. BTW, Rebel Heart (the track) would've been much better in its demo version, honestly. You should listen to it, actually.

Love your reactions! If you didn't know, this album suffered a massive leak prior to its release. Dozens of demos were leaked and most of them sounded vastly different from their final versions, especially Rebel Heart and Wash All Over Me. It would be really nice if you could take a listen to those songs and compare them

First of all, you seem like a great guy to go to a party with (even though I stopped going to parties too haha). You may not know about the incident that happened when the album's materials were hacked a few months before it was officially released, and some of the tracks were changed, unfortunately, not in a good way. The first two tracks that leaked at the time were Rebel Heart and Wash All Over Me, which I think were done beautifully, and should have stayed that way on the album. Borrowed time and graffiti heart are also better on the demo's versions, so check it out.

I love Rebel Heart it's her best release this century after Confessions

If he react to the Rebe Heart tour, is gonna be most impacted

Really happy you were able to listen to this record. It's a very underrated album. I do feel she ultimately included far too many songs for the final release. It should have been edited down to the 11-12 strongest tracks. But overall the quality was a HUGE step up from MDNA in songwriting and production. Feel free to check out the history of the album a bit, as several tracks leaked while they were still being worked on. She ended up remixing them quite quickly so that they still felt fresh for the record's release. Some fans (including myself) prefer some of the demo versions. But what ultimately ended up on the album was still solid. The only exception to that being the original demo of "Beautiful Scars", which you can find on RU-vid. Give it a listen. The original demo is absolutely gorgeous.

Thank god there's new Madonna reaction album,it's been ages.

Great reaction. I hadn't listened to this album all the way through in a very long time, so really fun to revisit with you. (I could barely listen to MDNA all the way through even once...not sure I ever actually did) You mentioned "duality" a lot and I believe that was Madonna's intention with this album. And just the name "Rebel Heart" sums that up so perfectly.

The whole album leaked (the hacker was arrested!!) and this fact really affected the promo!! The album has great songs (I LOVE "Hold Tight", my fav one) and how she transits between the dance songs (and she can make dance songs like nobody else) and the ballads (she has such beautiful ballads since the 80's) but it's often debated if demos are better than official or not... Well... I like "Illuminati" and "Wash..." but the demos GODDAMMIT are really better especially the 2° one IT'S A BANGER!! And probably "Rebel Heart" has one of the best vocals in her discography and many still say that she can't sing... 🤨🙄

Rebel Heart was the album that the "internet" generation discovered Madonna; the first where covers of the songs posted online, sometimes even before the album came out. It's also some of her best writing since Ray of Light and in 20 years time, the songs from Rebel Heart will become as well known and mass performed like those of the "Great American Songbook" tradition, as has already happened with "Like a Prayer" and the songs from Ray of Light, particularly "Frozen" which has taken on a life of its own.

This might be my favorite reaction video of yours ever aside from Confessions. I think I'm in love with you after your summation of "Body Shop." And LOL at "I'm gonna heart that" after "S.E.X." I hate that song but it's campy and ridiculous. Others probably already said it, but you might prefer the Avicii demo of "Rebel Heart." And the demo for "Beautiful Scars" is sooo much better than the final mix. They did a lot of re-mixing of the songs to make everything cohesive, and they succeeded for the most part but a bunch of songs suffered because of it.

Illuminati is one of my top Madonna tracks ever.

He probably listened to this album hundred of times

I enjoyed a lot this reaction. It was a revisit for me and it was great.

Please pretty please give us your opinion on Wash All Over Me (demo version)

Living For Love should have been number 1. It’s killer. And I love your goofy dancing to it 😂

This album is extremely underrated

My favorite album

There's a lot of demos that are so much better than the album version. It's a crime what they did with Beautiful Scars, the demo is so good

I can’t believe you didn’t love Hold Tight

You should listen to rebel heart (song), borrowed time and wash all over me demos! Completely different from the final versions and with hard avicii sounds 🫰🏼

Do you have any idea how much I was waiting for this reaction 😍 💞 ♥. You got admit that this album was better than Hard Candy 😂. I hope don't wait another season for Madame X (deluxe version 18 tracks) 🤗. Thanks for this dear Taylor

You should listen the Avicii demo of Wash all over me! 🖤

Messiah breaks my heart a little, and LOVE it!!!! Thanks Taylor👊💙👍 Zane

By far my fave current Madonna album...wish you would also do a reaction to the RH session demos (these demos exist in life...I'm only presenting life!!!) Cause quite frankly nothing compares to the Rebel Heart and Wash All Over Me demo Avicii versions!

Rebel Heart should have been Madonna’s return to dominance ala Ray of Light, Music, and Confessions. But the age aspect of the industry worked against her.
