'Erotica' was when I first got into Madonna and it was the first new studio album I got from her (after buying IC).
I was very excited and remember being blown away by 'Fever', D&D and the Andre Betts tracks.
Some of the other Shep tracks could have been better done. But I still love them. I think "In This Life" was a bit too meandering. Now that I reflect, it should have been a B side to something else, and 'Goodbye to Innocence' included.
Her voice is amazing on the album, I love that they just used the demo tracks I believe.
The cover of the album and font absolutely rules, so do the pics on the insert. I had no idea that those pics would be there when first opening it.
I first listened to it on Christmas morning because I got it for Christmas. Aside from the belief that the album could have been even better than it is, it is still my fave Madonna album of all time.

There are some who believe that I owe them something
But they're wrong, I owe nothing to no one but myself! -
This song absolutely RULES!!!!
-
I know people mentioned "Bad Girl" for Australia.. but i definitely hope she does "Like a Prayer" there... that country deserves LAP.
Anyway.... it is SO amazing she has added some new songs here and there. Lucky Vancouver to get "Secret" - and on the heart too - i would have freaking died right there on the spot
-
Secret with DRUMS.... hot. I'm emotional watching this!
-
I think it is an amazing thing to do - to have a song that signals the show is about to start. AND respectful to the crowd, because otherwise it's who knows when those lights are going to go down. And most people seemed to know what it means, because people were filing in like mad when the song kicked off.
The crowd cheered so hard when WBSS played - almost as if it's part of the show. The energy was amazing. I was so nervous and excited, haha.
-
Yes, I love the album too and I'm so happy to be a fan of an artist who isn't afraid to try different things.
And the album has stood the test of time in my opinion. Still love it.

Remind me never to just rely on an electronic ticket... I'll always print one just in case. Security makes me nervous enough at many a concert. That sucks for those guys.
And shame on the venue for not having something to pull up digital tickets in some area of the venue.
Other than that snafu, the shows/crowd seemed amazing!
-
The quiet background horns on demo 4 are very cool and dramatic. Nice.

I think Rebel Heart album has fallen a position (though it is oh, so strong) and I had to raise Like a Virgin in my ranking. This is always so damn hard. I love every one of her albums. Top four on lock it seems.
1. Erotica
2. Madonna
3. Confessions
4. Ray of Light
5. Like a Prayer
6. Rebel Heart
7. True Blue
8. I'm Breathless
9. Music
10. Hard Candy
11. Like a Virgin
12. MDNA
13. Bedtime Stories
14. American Life -
This is my mother's favorite Madonna song. My feelings about this song stem through her.
I remember when I first played it for her in 1995. It brought tears to her eyes. To this day, whenever we're together, we listen to it.
She's never said it, but I know that when she hears it, she thinks about my dad.
My mom is an awesome strong lady. I love her!
You think that you are strong, but you are weak...It takes more strength to cry, admit defeat.I have truth on my side,You only have deceitYou'll see, somehow, someday
That's a very sweet story. Thank you for sharing!
This song definitely invokes emotion. I love it so much.
-
It sounds great!
-
Maybe Stephen Harper can be the unapologetic bitch!
-
Not the "I'm breathless is a studio album" none sense again! It is not people!
It's a full album of new Madonna tracks... yes, I know it isn't considered one of her official studio albums, but it's also not even the official soundtrack to the movie. I always count it whenever ranking Madonna albums, because I've always loved it so much.
-
I think ROL should definitely be in everyone's list tbh
It is an amazing album... but strangely, I barely listen to it. So in a topic where you only pick three and live without the rest, I could live without it... which is a bit sacrilegious, haha, but is what it is.
-
Madonna - 80's epic songs and where it all began
Erotica - I could never live without my all time fave Madonna album and it always reminds of the 90's
Good lord... what else to choose if I only had one more choice?!
Rebel Heart - love just HOW many songs are on the album, and soooo much good material that represents her viewpoint in a later part of her career
-
Sooooooooo hot. Erotica era Madonna foreva!!!
-
'Swept Away' was NOT boring. It was something... but not that. haha
-
I can't rank them all right now other than number one:
1. Body Of Evidence
-
Monte tweeted he was there. OMG, I'm surprised the place didn't explode from being too iconic!
-
OMG when she did a snippet of Fever
lol, I love Sharon!! And I LOVE 'Fever'!!
-
I've probably played some of RH almost every day since it's release... but I am definitely listening to it with an obsessive ear since the show.... and new appreciation for just how genius it is.
-
RIT had the perfect mix IMO, especially to start with an oldie, and something as iconic as "Vogue", then a great mix with new and old (the second song being "Nobody Knows Me" had the crowd still going cray-cray, haha. It never stopped from there).
-
Wow, your pics are AMAZING, gemini! My pics did not turn out well, and I was desperately trying to get a few whenever she came to the heart. But I also didn't want to spend too much time doing that - I just wanted to stand near her transfixed and sing along to those amazing songs.
What were your first impressions of Erotica album?
in ARCHIVE - Madonna

Seriously, how can anybody not worship the cover? I think it's one of her most ingenious.
