Confessions Daily – Vol. 10
We’re only six days away from our last Confessions Daily, and we already had a new remix released, a new interview confirmed, a new partnership announced, an album anniversary, a new COADF2 song and a new videoclip!
On June 12, 2006 Madonna has released the breathtaking Bring Your Love (Stuart Price Afterhours Mix) to the digital platforms. First heard as one of the three songs from Confessions II performed at the Live in NYC event in Times Square last week, the remix features Madonna’s vocals only and serves as the soundtrack of both the end credits of Confessions II – The Film and the promotional campaign for KIKO Milano.
On Friday, June 26 Graham Norton will welcome the incomparable Madonna in a world exclusive special for BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
Recorded at the legendary Koko in Camden, London – the stage that hosted Madonna’s first-ever UK show in 1983 as well as the launch of her landmark 2005 album, Confessions on a Dance Floor – the programme will see Graham meet with Madonna for an intimate, in-depth discussion about her incredible life and celebrated career and will feature special guests, including an appearance from Madonna’s long-time collaborator Stuart Price.
Madonna is entering a bold new era with Confessions II, and Absolut is joining as the album’s official vodka partner. The new partnership will include a series of experiences supporting the album throughout the summer, the continuation of Absolut and Madonna‘s decades-long advocacy for the LGBTQ+ community, including donations to longtime partner GLAAD, and a new visual identity – “Absolut Icon.” – a new creative inspired by the brand’s storied artistic legacy developed together with Special Offer, inc. – the design team behind Confessions II. Photographed in 2026 by Ricardo Gomes, the new ad features Madonna wearing the iconic purple bodysuit and the Lilly corset by Period Corsets originally worn during her 2006 Grammy Awards performance and in the Sorry music video.
At the last of his his three-night run at Barclays Center in NYC, dutch dee-jay, remixer and producer Martin Garrix teased the crowd with a brand-new track, and many realized they were hearing Madonna’s voice. While he did not make any announcement straight during the main show Garrix confirmed the collaboration with Madonna at his after-party and posted a video of the performance on Instagram, joining the dozens of fan recordings that spread the hype all over both fandoms throught the day.
What we officially know so far is that the upcoming Madonna album includes a song named Bizarre and Martin Garrix new record reportedly includes a track carrying the same title. Will we hear Bizarre on Confessions II on July 3rd exactly as Martin played it in NYC?
Madame X, Madonna’s 14th studio album, was released 7 years ago today, on June 14, 2019. The 7 year (and 19 day) gap between Madame X and Confessions II is the longest between two Madonna studio albums to date or, if you will, the longest time fans ever had to wait or a new album.
Sharing the laurels as the love-it-or-hate-it Madonna album with American Life (how can you just not adore them both?), Madame X marked the beginning of an era where Madonna started exploring different identities and creating new personas. Sounds familiar, uh?
Madonna announced the release of the official music video for Bring Your Love on YouTube with a message to her Community on WhatsApp. The first single from Confessions On A Dance Floor: Part II, performed by Madonna & Sabrina Carpenter, has now its dedicated videoclip.
The videoclip, shot at the same time of Confessions II – The Film, is directed by TORSO, produced by Division and edited by Danny Tull to the full lenght version of the song with with rave choreography by Megan Lawson and rave scene movement direction by Nicolas Huchard.
The videoclip ends with Madonna walking in the corridor – a transition that leads to Danceteria in the film. In the Bring Your Love video, what we see beyond the door is not the club bathroom but a daylight version of the Good For The Soul forest, complete with green laser beams, birds chirping, and invitation to Come to the Club of Love.
