Erotica

Erotica is the fifth studio album by American recording artist Madonna, released on October 20, 1992 by Maverick and Sire Records. The album was released simultaneously with Madonna's first book publication Sex, a coffee table book containing explicit photographs featuring the singer, and marked her first release under Maverick, her own multimedia entertainment company. Erotica is a concept album about sex and romance, incorporating her alter ego Mistress Dita, inspired by actress Dita Parlo. Some of its songs also take on a more confessional tone, influenced by the loss of Madonna's two close friends to AIDS. -WIKIPEDIA

    Chilly, deliberate, relentlessly posturing. Erotica is a post-AIDS album about romance.

    what’s the point of calling the thing Erotica if you don’t deliver?

  • The New York Times

    Madonna's new album, "Erotica," contains tough, propulsive dance music tarted up with some smutty jokes and sweetened with fleeting glimpses of hard-bitten tenderness.

    It's just hopelessly mediocre with a only few good moments.

    Erotica's best songs are among her finest ever. I just love hip Meat Beat Manifesto-like samples and fast beats and whowherewhy.
