Madonna
Bedtime Stories
Release Date: 1994 10 25
Label: Warner Bros.

Perhaps Madonna correctly guessed that the public overdosed on the raw carnality of her book -Sex. Perhaps she wanted to offer a more optimistic take on sex than the distant Erotica. Either way, Bedtime Stories is a warm album, with deep, gently pulsating grooves; the album's title isn't totally tongue-in-cheek. The best songs on the album ("Secret," "Inside of Me," "Sanctuary," "Bedtime Story," "Take a Bow") slowly work their melodies into the subconscious as the bass pulses. In that sense, it does offer an antidote to Erotica, which was filled with deep but cold grooves. The entire production of Bedtime Stories suggests that she wants listeners to acknowledge that her music isn't one-dimensional. She has succeeded with that goal, since Bedtime Stories offers her most humane and open music; it's even seductive. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Hi Madonna, I think if you continue to sing pop songs great like those you've been singing since the 1980's, 1990's and 2000's, you will inspire new people to love pop music, and many singers will...
