Songbook Xtended: Bedtime Story



Madonna - Bedtime Story (1995) [Original Post]

I suppose this song represents a breakthrough of some sorts. After a week of mourning a loved one it was the first new song to enter the CD Club Songbook. A song I haven't thought about in a long time, drifting to the surface because of something overheard somewhere. It's (literally) Madonna doing Bjork, with the kind of music video production we can only dream of these days. A welcome step in Madonna's evolution through the nineties, but not quite the brilliance that would follow a couple of years later with the Ray of Light album. A nice cool dip before she full submerged herself with William Orbit and ultimate became Frozen.
