 (14 Customer Reviews)
1998's RAY OF LIGHT marked Madonna's move toward electronica, and a larger journey back to her dance-club roots. That journey was completed with 2005's CONFESSIONS ON A DANCEFLOOR. A collection of hardcore club tracks with few mainstream pop concessions, CONFESSIONS is packed wall-to-wall with driving, electronica-driven grooves.
Madonna has always been one of the reigning queens of postmodern alchemy, and this record is a perfect example of her magic. A primary layer of sleek, old-school disco is combined with pile-driving house and techno, not to mention more than a few contemporary production flourishes. Either directly or indirectly, CONFESSIONS references '70s and early-'80s dance music, including Madonna's own, but while the album seems retro in several areas, it also has a distinct futuristic sheen. Nothing here has the hook-heavy single status of "Material Girl" or "Like A Prayer," but the pulsing intensity of the tracks is sheer sonic pleasure, making Madonna's return to straight-up dance music a welcome homecoming.
On Confessions On A Dance Floor, Madonna, the most popular and significant female artist in pop music, returns unapologetically to her roots. A stunning blend of musical styles with one foot in early disco (` la Giorgio Moroder) and the other pointed toward the future, Confessions On A Dance Floor is all about having a good time straight through and non-stop, says the Material Mom, who co-wrote and co-produced every track. For Madonna and music fans everywhere, the all-dance, noballad Confessions On A Dance Floor is a welcome guilty pleasure. This limited edition comes in packaged in special packaging and includes the bonus track 'Fighting Spirit'. Warner. 2005.Rolling Stone (No. 987, p.129) - 3.5 out of 5 stars - "...CONFESSIONS comes on like an all-out disco inferno..."
Spin (pp.106-107) - "The killer single 'Hung Up' spins a trilly Abba keyboard sample into a four-on-the-floor disco reverie."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.99) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[T]he tunes are swoonable....A brilliant disco record from a woman unafraid to look in the mirror, even at this stage of her game, and talk dirty..."

I am a total Madonna fan and this is by far the best album, even better than Ray of Light. Madonna gets better with age!!! She is truely the greatest diva of our generation. My favorite songs are "Sorry", it's really hard not to move with the beat. The lyrics are too the point and in your face. "Get together" just brings me back to the 80's and it is techno at it's greatest. "Jump" is one of the best dance songs out today and will make you want to jump around. I purchased this the day it was released and continue to keep this playing on my car stereo on a daily basis. A must have for all fans and/or the casual techno/dance listener.

Madonna is in top form here with this new collection of dance music. she is truly in her forte, expressing her views and ideas as only she can through the music that gave her her start. Every song segues into the next. the music is not a return to her earlier fluffy dance confections of the early 80's but have a darker and more electronic tone to them. At times, Madge suffers from inane lyrics, though overall, the album is engaging and worth listening to again and again.
This special collectors set, includes a full color book of Madge in various seductive poses and a notebook to recored your own ideas and dreams. there is also a bonus track not included on the original release. Get this if you are a fan.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Just Great
My 2nd favorite Madonna album (after True Blue of course). Thank You Madonna for this trully brilliant album. Hung Up, Get Together and my favorite Sorry - what's not to like! Every song was unique. Push was special one - should have been released as a single. How High, Future Lovers, Let It Will Be, Isaac were perfect!

EVERYTHING YOU NEVER WANTED TO KNOW:WHAT'S IN A NAMEJanuar [yah-new-wahr], Icelandic for January, is a Denver-based "trio" who creates atmospheric indie-pop in the vein of Low, Pedro the Lion, and Mojave 3. The intricate harmonies of married couple Jeremy (guitar, bass, vocals) and Amy (guitar, vocals) and Patty (drums, percussion, vocals) wrap around Januar's unforgettable melodies and finely crafted lyrics. A TRIO OF FOURJanuar formed, appropriately enough, January 2002, when Jeremy, Amy, and Katie (Januar's first drummer, who still occasionally plays with the band) formed an acoustic trio out of the ashes of their former space-rock band, Breathing Eve. By fall, Katie moved on (Iceland, PA, GA), and for the next two years, Januar existed, primarily, as a recording project. In early 2004, Patty (who had played percussion with Januar) made a seamless transition to the drum set, when Katie was unable to make a show. Januar began playing out on a regular basis, with Patty as the sole drummer, and started recording a five song EP. SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINEOn March 18, 2005, Januar released The Fall EP to critical acclaim, and that summer they began recording their full-length CD, The Way Back Home, with studio wizard Jme (in Blusom-on Second Nature Records, Blue Blooded Girls, & Intervention). In January 2006, Januar signed with a West Coast indie label and prepared for the release of their new album. PRESSING PARTYAfter a few setbacks (which is typical in the music industry), the label assured Januar that The Way Back Home was manufactured and would be in their hands in time for the CD Release Show (June 24, 2006). Two weeks before the big event, Januar found out that production on the album had never even begun because the label still hadn't ...
