    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!

    There's irony in damning Madonna in the name of Jesus

    Her best work yet. Really, one of the best pure pop records of all-time. Destined to be a classic.

    Madonna gives us a new perspective on tracks on a cd, a almost never ending storie from begining to end, it's like you almost can't tell when one storie ends and the next one begins, it's perfect!!!!!!

    This is Madonna's best album since "Ray of Light". All these are catchy and are easy to dance to. The queen is back in a big way!!!

    utter brilliance! cant fault it in any way. to the negative comments...why is the music never spoke about. it seems people only want to trash the woman no matter what and ignore the actual work. either that or its a dumb statement that reveals that the person doesnt like pop/dance music anyway, so why bother saying anything? get a life

  1. 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.
  2. 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]
