Louie - After listening to it on spotify 3 times in a row last night I just bought Bedtime Stories. :nod: I really love this stage of her career and it's kind of been forgotten about. |

I hear she collaborates with the music find of 2011: Sound of Arrows. So I'm intrigued.

"Bedtime Stories" is truly one of the greatest albums that she's released. I love that Urban/R&B edge to it. And apart from #1 single "Take a Bow" there's a lot to enjoy, especially Bjork-written title track (a kind of introduction to the future "Ray of Light" electronica world), anthemic "Survival" and funky "Don't Stop". But "Erotica" is even better. I'm not gay yet that album's dance settings and lyrics provide me a great musical experience. Besides, it was my first Madonna's album ever, so I guess my opinion may have something to do with so called sentimentality :) "Where Life Begins"-my all time favourite song from that album, even with its raunchy lyrics :)

Erotica is a great album. Bad Girl is particular is such a fantastic song. I think it's underrated even by Madonna herself, since it's not on GHV2. The video is also one of her best. |
You are absolutely right! "Bad Girl" is such a great song, one of her best ballads ever and she didn't even put it on "Something to Remember" (Ballads album). Who needs two bland versions of "I Want You"? Not me, anyway...:) I can see that Madonna depreciate a lot of her ballads. For example her #1 song "This Used To Be My Playground" didn't find its way on any compilation album. "You'll See"-another gem, has been rarely or never performed during her world tours. But going back to "Bad Girl"...My girlfriend loves this song to pieces! And not only because of the title...:) The lyrics are quite depressing but it only makes me want to go back to this song again and again. And maybe this is the reason why I appreaciate "American Life" album so much...the lyrics are simple yet memorable... And a song "I'm So Stupid" sounds like a sequel to "Bad Girl" lyrical content, at least for me...I don't know but I feel there's a kind of connection between these two songs.

Something To Remember is my favourite Madonna album and yes, if Bad Girl replaced one of the version of I Want You the whole thing would have been absolutely perfect. This Used To Be My Playground is on it. |

On another note, I gave Erotica a spin last night. I've forgotten how much I love Waiting and Thief of Hearts. "You'll do it, you'll take it. You'll screw it, you'll fake it." :laugh: Take that Annette Bening. |

I'm just listening to Madonna's "Ray of Light" and must say that it's impeccable set of music. I know that for many people this type of Techno/Electronica/Pop hybrid is too much but truly this album has got only better with time. I think it needs more time and patience to appreaciate but finally it'll display its beauty for the casual listener.

CONFESSSIONS ON A DANCE FLOOR!! IMHO her BEST album (right up there with Ray of Light) and (so far) her absolute BEST tour. Madonna knows how to entertain!

So what does everyone here think?
