I don't know much about music awards, is it so bad to release an album late in the year? Oscar winners are almost always winter releases.

I remember COADF was released back in November and then it was going up against albums that were released right before all these different awards shows much later. Obviously the things that were up and coming were slated to do better since COADF was basically chucked to the back of the bandwagon due to the much earlier release date. This is also the US after all and a dance record is regarded much differently these days. The electronic sound usually pales in comparison to the R&B dance style.

This bit of news posted by "Immaculate" at the Madonnatribe forums is regarding the new song Annie Lennox had recorded which claims to be a duet with Madonna. Other sources have mentioned that this song actually has a number of women artists singing along on this track other than just Madonna. I guess we'll have wait and see which is the case. I hope this bit of news is accurate because it would be cool to have the two doing a duet alone together, but either way, it's awesome to know these women got together and recorded what sounds like a beautiful song. Thanks to "Immaculate" for making this known:

Just recently bought Erotica.
I'm sorry.. but this album really is not that good ._.
As with most Madonna albums, I only like most of the singles and hits, and none of the album tracks. I think all of the songs are really slow, and have that kind of "sleezy sound", and songs you would hear in a sleezy place. I know its kind of intended, but... I thought I would've been surprised.

I think the whole SEX book re why this album has so much recognization. If there was no SEX book, this album would probably not have as much recognization as it does.
Sorry if my choice of words aren't the best.

edit: Nevermind. I judge waay to quickly.

Plus, I can't get the freaking cd booklet back into the case XD
It folds so weird!

Actually, I kind of agree with the original statement. Not on all of her albums, but at least with anything prior to Ray of Light. Everything after that was pretty much gold, but before that I only liked the album tracks. Anytime I listen to Bedtime Stories, I always skip to the singles and nothing else :\

Haha, yay, I'm not alone.

I think the only album of hers, where I can actually listen to every song and not act like I'm just forcing myself to listen to it, is probably the Confessions CD.
I really love Like It Or Not, Push, and Let It Will Be :D

Meh, the original version of Music sounds sooo empty once you hear it after listening to Music Inferno all the time x_x

yes it's true. the singles are the only songs beautiful but they are AMAZING singles XD

Erotica is my favourite album ever!

my favorite are ray of light and confession on a dancefloor

frozen and hung up are amazing

My best album is American Life. Totally damn and supreme!
