’s last album American Life didn’t exactly set the critics’ or fans’ world alight, so whatever she did next then had to be bloody good. While the last offering was a bit too political and serious for most people’s liking and being the re-inventor that she is, Madge naturally changed direction completely and focused on making tunes that her listeners can dance to.
The concept here on Confessions On A Dance Floor then is disco, and dancing away your worries away. Just like in a club there’s no pausing for breath and the songs melt into the next one. Hung Up will have already been making its rounds on the dance floor across the nation and is probably the most pumped up of the tracks. Sorry comes pretty close though with its body twisting beats and subtle synths. The trancey Future Lovers is probably the weakest track and one you’re most likely to get irritated by. On I Love New York she displays the no nonsense don’t give a monkeys what anyone thinks attitude that we all love and know her for. “If you don't like my attitude /Then you can F off” she spits. Thanks Madge. Still if there were ever any questions you had about fame or having pot loads of money, then is someone who is obviously more than equipped to answer them. “Now I can tell you about success, about fame/About the rise and the fall of all the stars in the sky,” she declares on How High. The question of fame pops up again on How High with her asking ‘Will it matter when I'm gone? /will any of this matter?’ A little self indulgent at times, but fortunately Confessions On A Dance Floor has the dance factor so none of that really matters.
