I had forgotten how beautiful this song is. What a gem...

and here's a peak of the unreleased video to "Rescue Me"...

According to the recent news, Madonna's manager was in London recently to listen to her album. So it's done and ready to go. So they'll now be implementing the album campaign and promo. :dance:

^ That is such an underrated album, Reece.

I love the softness, warmth and consistency of it. "Inside of Me" and "Sanctuary" should've been singles. They're gorgeous. :love:

The title song STILL sounds fresh to this day!

**** Bedtime Stories is a vibe and a half! The perfect marriage of pop and R&B. It's just so effortlessly fun, laidback and self-asserted. Beautiful production :love:

I do question some of the lyrical content though lol

I agree.

Unfortunately,. Madonna said she didn't really enjoy making that album because she felt there were too many cooks in the kitchen. She said it was difficult to maintain a sense of consistency because most of the songs sound so different to one another, but I think they did a brilliant job. :dance:

Omg, White vinyl edition of "Erotica" coming November 19th...

since we have a countdown to Christmas now, a nice throwback thursday picture of Madonna in her Christmas outfit, in december 2015 :flutter:

That's funny bc to me it sounds like one of her most cohesive albums? Granted, bedtime story and take a bow are a bit different

:joker: Nicky, that was photoshopped by someone taking the p!ss :joker:
Here's the original photo of her wearing the Louis Vuitton mini-dress...

Yes, I agree. Although, I suppose when you compare the likes of "Secret", "Human Nature" to "Bedtime Story" and "Sanctuary" they do feel like worlds apart.
She's been referencing BS a lot on instagram, so I think she's feeling quite nostalgic about it. :hee:

Erotica (song) is an absolute masterpiece coupled with the video. It only clicked w me in the last few days but the video and production capture the essence of 'erotica' and 'romance' SO perfectly. One of the most atmospheric pieces of music of all time.

It's a shame Erotica doesn't have as much of a modern-day legacy as some of M's singles but equally I can see why :laugh:

I adore Erotica. Granted, it didn't make the same impact as some of her other stuff but everything from that era has aged liked a fine wine and is now viewed as a work of art. The sex book is a companion piece to Erotica (is now one of the most sought after books in the world and usually has a price tag of around £200-£300 (unopened) - it rarely sells for any less. My copy is still sealed and in mint condition, but I would never sell it. It's one of my most prized M items.

Wait so you've never opened the book?

I would loooove some Madonna merch anything you could recommend?

Not mine, no, It's still sealed and in mint condition - I just looked at a friends copy instead. :laugh:

I used to have loads of merchandise but got rid of a lot of it when I moved house. I still have a bit like vintage T-shirts, cardboard displays, vinyls, album rarities like the royal box (The Immaculate Collection), tour books, ect.

You should go on ebay and have a look. You can get some good stuff at reasonable prices on there.
