Madonna performs ‘Take a Bow’ in concert for the first time ever
By Will Stroude
Madonna’s Rebel Heart Tour might be entering its final swing, but the Queen of Pop proved she still has plenty of surprises up her sleeve after performing lost 1994 chart-topper ‘Take a Bow’ in concert for the first time ever at her Rebel Heart Tour stop in Taipei last night (February 4).
The 57-year-old last performed the second single from 1994’s Bedtime Stories at the American Music Awards over 20 years ago – a fact made all the more surprising by given it remains her longest-running Number One single on the Billboard Hot 100, hitting the top spot for seven weeks between February and April 1995.
“That was fun!” Madonna told the understandably enraptured crowd after delivering the mid-tempo number from a stool at the front of the stage. “First time ever. Hit a few bad notes, but it felt good to sing it.”
And it felt good to hear it, Madge – fingers crossed we won’t be waiting ’til 2036 for the chance to hear another live outing.
Thank You TaiPei‼️. Your Energy was electric and Amazing! ❤️ #rebelhearttour pic.twitter.com/7Xnjn46SCP
