    I must say that I never really paid attention to Madonna until this album. I became a fan when i heard Confessions on a Dance floor. It's great for parties and for just a person dancing in the room. For me, it's the best Madonna album to date.

The CD continues with "Future Lovers", "I Love New York", "Let It Will Be" and "Forbidden Love" that are excellent dance songs!!! And then there are "Jump" ( for me the second best track, then Hung Up ) "How High", "Isaac" ( great! ) "Push" and "Like it or not". All great tracks! "Confessions" is one of Madonna greatest CDs with "True Blue" and "Like a Prayer". I Love this!!!!!! ( sorry for my English )… Expand

    Madonna's an artist I've discovered in the recent years. I'd heard her in Snatch's soundtrack. Also saw her older hits on TV every now and then. I found she had a very lively spirit. I don't like her much nowadays, because she acts way too much like she's meant to be treated like a royalty. True reflexion of what celebrity does to you.

I found a good bunch of songs actually good to listen to, for an artist such as Madonna. Letdowns were the Americanisation song such as New York. As smart as Madonna claims to be, that song just reeked idiocy. Overall, the songs have really good melodies and Madonna shows political tolerance by using many different styles of harmonies in her songs. I think Mirwais probably helped her out on this CD, but Mirwais is a good artist anyways, so props. Buy it, it's worth it. Especially if you like to dance.… Expand

    One of her best works till date. As each song segues into the next and grows on you, you just cannot stop listening to the whole album once you sit down with Hung Up. Each track is amazing, from the 80's love beats in Forbidden Love to the hyperactive Jump. Brilliant stuff!

    this albums is a huge success!
    one of the best albums and the best dance album of the 00's

    Madonna went back to her roots and once again returned to the top!

    what i love about this album is the 70's disco vibes from The pet shop boys, Donna summer, John Travolta etc. etc.

    Confessions on a dance floor is the definition of madonna. Groovy beats and some of her best vocals (get together). Each song could be a single and it's a non stop dance journey. The ultimate pop album for me.

    The best album by Madonna in this century (and in her career, at least in my mind)! Any of songs are dance jams, that you can dance til today! "Sorry" is just an adictive piece of song btw.
    Also title of this album is very good, since it's lyrical content are actually confessions or problems, while musically album is very very dancey.

    I'm starting to realise Madonna is a brand that's been overhyped from day one. She's never broken any ground artistically and her vocals and lyrics aren't up too much. A weak album from a weak artist trying very very hard to stay on the scene,

    About as repetitive, unoriginal, nonsensical, repetitive as most of Madonna's songs in recent history. A lot of the lyrics are just dumb, everything is incredibly repetitive, and all the songs sound pretty much the same, only barely reaching distinguishable. Also, it's repetitive.

    There are only a few highlights, such as the single "Hung Up," and overwhelmingly the songs mesh into one repetitive whole, leaving you bored and feeling cheated. Vision and uniqueness are heavily lacking on "Confessions..." I would recommend only buying the single if it's peaking your interest.

    Instead of pushing the envelope, Madonna seems to have put herself in one and sent herself to 1976. Unfortunately, the best disco was in that era and Madonna is no match for Ms Summer or even Abba. A sad state of affairs.

    I really like this album, even if at times some tracks appear to be thrown together with DJ mixes to "sound good." I don't think it's her best, that would be Ray of Light. However, the effort put forth into this album as compared to American Life, or Bedtime Stories, certainly proves that it's not all about her image.

And this is either the best or 2nd best album she's ever been involved in. It's also a contender for album of the year in my honest humble opinion.

    Wow is the best descriptive word for "Confessions..", Madonna takes us by the jugular and doesn't let go for an hour. In turn sweet, sexy, spiritual, but always thumping and groovy. Standout tracks are Hung Up, Sorry, Jump, How High, Isaac, Push. This woman is so rightfully tagged Queen of Pop, there's a trail of pretenders in her wake, long may she reign!

    Well, for sure, it is definitely her best album she put out in years! Especially compare to the dreadful 2003 release "American Life". Still, her voice gets a bit lost in all those multi layers of techno synths and progressive beats. But mostly, the lyrics are a little cheesy if not dumb sometimes. But overall, it's great to see Madonna back to stir this boring world of pop music Well, for sure, it is definitely her best album she put out in years!

    Repeated listenings reveal even greater pleasures in the lush songs. Lyrics are average, but when was dance music ever about the words? The beats are what count, and they deeply rock on this album.

    One of the few pop singers whose albums are best appreciated in their entirety and not lopped off into "hit singles," Madonna... has succeeded at creating a dance-pop odyssey with an emotional, if not necessarily narrative, arc.

    It may be a return to core values, but there's still a bravery about Confessions on a Dancefloor. It revels in the delights of wilfully plastic dance pop in an era when lesser dance-pop artists - from Rachel Stevens to Price's protege Juliet - are having a desperately thin time of it.

    Disco with a vengeance, a whomping, unapologetically airheaded engine of stroboscopic beats and succulent textures that exhumes dance music's time-honored values of celebration and affirmation. [13 Nov 2005]
