On August 4 2005, Liz Smith talked about Madonna’s then-forthcoming Confession on a Dance Floor album in the New York Post:
Who are the happiest music executives in the land these days? The big guys at Warner Records. All who have heard Madonna’s coming CD, Confessions on a Dance Floor, have been blown away. (Including WR’s movie – star handsome CEO Tom Whalley.) Confessions is entirely a dance – driven pop disc. No message. No ballads. All fun. These days M seems serene as the chatelaine of an English manor, feeding the chickens, riding, tending to her children, etc. (She, her home and her kids are gorgeous in Vogue for August.) But the once – shocking icon can still get into the groove. And she wants her fans to know it. The album hits stores in November.
Do you remember the anticipation for this album? It was a very exciting time to be a Madonna fan!
Today In Madonna History 
Eleven years later, Confessions on a Dance Floor is Madonna’s late-night mirror-ball masterpiece straight outta Detroit Rock City-Fave song Future Lovers.
The best of her many, MANY stellar albums, IMO. After all the tracks had remained in heavy rotation on my iPod for 2 years straight, I had to admit it had toppled “Erotica” as my favorite M album of all time.
