Re: The REAL meaning of Madonna's Erotica Album

I LOVE "Erotica," it's my favorite album of Madonna's. The sound of the album is consistent throughout, which gives it a very cohesive feel. I truly think this is a brilliant work of art. I think you might be reading too much into the lyrics of "Bad Girl," though. Madonna said in her 1992 interview with Jonathan Ross that she writes songs that tell stories of fictional characters. However, people always make the mistake of thinking she's talking about herself, because she sings it in the first person.

But everyone is allowed to have their own interpretation. That's what art is all about.

My favorite songs on the album are "Words," "Deeper and Deeper," "In This Life," "Why's It So Hard," "Erotica," "Where Life Begins," and "Rain."

From the looks of it, the demos sound pretty good too:

(That school teacher at the end doesn't seem to get it. Madonna didn't make a book for children. The book was for adults.)

Re: Madonna

Madonna is THE QUEEN! I am such a big fan of her's. My favorite album of her's is "Erotica."
 
Looking Back At Madonna's Hard Candy

I have to say, when this album came out I found it VERY bland and boring. The album just didn't strike me like Confessions or American Life.

I'm playing the album now, and I have to say after hearing the songs over and over the last 2 years, WOW its gonna be 3 years since hard candy pretty soon! WTF this came out when I was an 18yr old little boi and im 22 now! Lol back to what I was saying..

I really do like candy shop sometimes this song makes me start dancing and I get into the whole mood of the album. This album can make me break into a sweat. Some like heartbeat, but I think there are better tracks. I think some of these songs are just pure pop music with a hip-hop tinge, made to be simply ear candy. Nothing special about this album as Madonna usually uses concepts as a form of her own art. I have to say my favorite song is The Devil Wouldn't Recognize You. I like just about every song, even the final track Voices.

The one thing I didn't like, is that the album was released on two separate records. There was enough space to put 6 songs on each side. Each lp is candy colored with swirls though so I guess that's cool. I hate having to flip every 3 songs but its better sound so I guess you can't win. It would be nice to flip just once rather then 3 times as there are 4 sides. Each side can hold 30 minutes each, and the album is 45 minutes long!

I understand confessions being split onto two lps, because DJ's had an easier time mixing and spinning when there are more space between the grooves. Hard candy wasn't made to be mixed really, so Warner could have easily saved money and just released the album on one LP.

Re: Looking Back At Madonna's Hard Candy

I like this album even if I liked Confession On A Dance Floor better. I like most of the tracks, but I'll have to give it a re-listen because I don't remember Dance2night or Voices.

One of the reasons why I like this album is because I remember having it playing when my bf and I went to this party and this other guy started hitting on me and then by the end of the night this other guy was way too into me and I had to literally dodge one of his kisses.

Anyway thanks for making this thread!
 
Re: Looking Back At Madonna's Hard Candy

I think this thread reminds us that it's time for a new Madonna disc!! I would like to hear her do a CD of covers of other people's material. Idk, maybe some dance/ballads combo.

Long live The Queen......[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4f2uA4WpYE[/ame]
 
Re: Madonna

A true trend setter. The Queen was doing electronica in 1994. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp8LHG36avg[/ame]

Re: Madonna

Always thought the strings were so gorgeous in this one:



Great how "Like A Virgin" album producer Nile Rodgers really expanded the sound palette compared to her first album. Love the textures on that disc. Every once in a while I'll listen through her albums chronologically over the space of a couple weeks. :)
 
Re: Madonna

Last night I downloaded all the remastered versions of her CD's that I didn't have. I even found the remastered Like A Prayer. When I type "Madonna" into my itunes library 597 songs pop up! So I have it all. I even have demos. Love the "Each Time You Break My Heart" demo she did for Nick Kamen. You can tell the issues she was having with Sean Penn when she wrote that. Probably why she gave it up. She was my first concert in 1987 and I saw her in 2005. I remember running out of school in 10th grade to catch the 3:00 pm world premiere of "Like A Prayer". I remember "Open Your Heart" premiering and "Papa Don't Preach" was played every hour on the hour. "Vogue" was premiered in the gay clubs. Being young and out I was a HUGE fan. I remember taking the college campus bus to buy "Erotica" and then taking it back to my boyfriend's dorm room so we could listen to it. "Bedtime Stories" was my fuck tape. All the gays loved her and my friends that claimed they didn't still owned her music. She was such a gigantic star then. She was on every magazine cover or at least inside. She was always on the news. Mtv played her nonstop. I have never seen the likes since. Not Britney or GaGa has got the coverage she got. But it's a different time with the internet. I don't collect memorabilia or anything like that though but I do download her songs as soon as they come out.

Here is the song I was talking about for those who haven't heard it. GREAT song. I think this would have been a huge hit for her in 1986.
 
Re: Madonna

First Madonna song I ever heard was Express Yourself. Been a fan ever since!
 
Re: Madonna

I love the song "Stay" from LAV. It's just such an awesome 80's tune. (!)

"Stay" is good! I'm kind of a sucker for "Shoo-Bee-Doo" (*hangs head in shame*) from that same album too, lol. Easygoing midtempo ballad, down-home simple arrangement (with touches of plucked strings and even a squealing 80s sax solo, haha) and I like the nonsensical title that nods a bit to Motown or 60s girl groups that would have backing lyrics or harmonies like that. Sure, it's dated (would anyone ever have described it as "cutting edge"?), but lots of fun:
