Album Description:
On Confessions of 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 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, no-ballad Confessions on a Dance Floor is a welcome guilty pleasure.

Amazon.com:
Apparently there's nothing in Kabbalah that disallows sweaty, head-spinningly good dance music, because here comes a flame-haired Madonna hawking a dozen songs' worth: Confessions on a Dance Floor darts seamlessly from Madge's early days, when she emerged as the genre's enduring darling, through the political, kiddie, and acoustic pap that drove a wedge between her and early adopters of the fingerless glove look. Songs like the pop-leaning "Jump" and first single "Hung Up"--an adrenaline drip on high that, like many of these tracks, will inspire mild shame among those who've thrilled to the much thinner disco-dusted outpourings of younger divas recently--represent both a return to form and an unmistakable march into the future. "Get Together" is a sonic freak-out in the best sense; "Push" traffics in gut-level futuristic trance; and "Forbidden Love" loops in '80s blips and bleeps for a follow-me-into-the-past effect that's both neo and retro. For all the image-affirming innovations here, though, these confessions find Madonna framed in her share of reflective moments too. "Was it all worth it/How did I earn it?" she asks on "How High," a song featuring vocoder. "Nobody's perfect/I guess I deserve it," comes the answer. A later lyrical inquiry is left for the listener to judge: "Does this get any better?" Madonna wants to know. But that opens the door to a dizzying proposition. Few of us would have guessed, after all, that it got this good. --Tammy La Gorce

- Rock It
Madonna just never stops bringing it. It's one thing to make it to the top, it's another thing to stay there and go the distance like she has. 1st time I listened to this CD all I could say was, "she delivered again". Thank you Madonna for still giving us tunes to rock it out to over all these years.

I was living in Mayport, Florida around this time when the cd came out and none of the radio stations were playing this cd. Nonetheless, fortunately my husband purchased this cd for me as a gift and it has been a gift I have been enjoying ever since. Here is the rundown of each of the songs

Hung Up 7/10 A unique song with strong eurodance background music that in my opinion is a solid beginner. One can easily picture themselves at a danceclub with this song.

- One of Madonna's Best Albums
I am so glad Madonna went back to her dance roots on this album. It has been a year or so since this one came out and I am still playing it hard like when it was on the radio. I have been buying lots of her songs and remix cd's cause what can you say. She is an icon!! I am not a fan of this new stuff she came out with Justin Timberlake. But I just got her Music cd & then the Ray of Light and there are just so many great songs on there that weren't even overplayed. She is an amazing song writer and has ... Read More
