Confessions on a Dance Floor is the tenth studio album by Madonna, released on November 9, 2005, via Warner Bros. Records. A complete departure from her previous studio album American Life, the album includes influences of 1970s disco and 1980s electropop, as well as modern-day club music.
Musically, the record is structured like a DJ's set. The songs are sequenced and blended so that they are played continuously without any gaps. The title arrived from the fact that the album tracklisting consists of light-hearted and happy songs in the beginning, and progresses to much darker melodies and lyrics describing personal feelings and commitments. Songs on the album sample and reference the music of other dance-oriented artists like ABBA, Donna Summer, Pet Shop Boys, the Bee Gees and Depeche Mode, as well as Madonna's 1980s output.
