shoful 13,304 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 The 25th anniversary of Erotica (and SEX), the greatest album to ever bless our ears, is coming up this October! To celebrate I decided to do a spotlight-type thing for the album. So every week until the true anniversary, I will create a new thread that focuses in on one particular event of this earth shattering and provocative era! This thread will be in place to have all the links to the spotlights and just a general thread for members to discuss their love and adoration for this album. So get your whips and masks, cause this is gonna be one hell of a sexual journey! Background Info: Erotica: Spoiler "Erotica is the fifth studio album by American singer and songwriter Madonna. It was released on October 20, 1992, by the Maverick and Warner Bros. Records. The album was released simultaneously with Madonna's first book publication, Sex, a coffee table book containing explicit photographs featuring the singer. It marked Madonna's first release under her own multimedia entertainment company, Maverick. Erotica is a concept album about sex and romance; she incorporated an alter ego named Mistress Dita, inspired by actress Dita Parlo. Some songs also take on a more confessional tone, influenced by the loss of Madonna's two close friends to AIDS." ~ Wikipedia Release Date: October 20th, 1992 Cover: Spoiler Singles: Erotica, Deeper & Deeper, Bad Girl, Fever, Rain, Bye Bye Baby Tracklist: Spoiler 1.

Secret Garden Listen: Spoiler SEX: Spoiler "Sex is a coffee table book written by American singer Madonna, with photographs taken by Steven Meisel Studio and film frames shot by Fabien Baron. The book was edited by Glenn O'Brien and was released on October 21, 1992, by Warner Books, Maverick and Callaway Books. Approached with an idea for a book on erotic photographs, Madonna expanded on the idea and conceived the book and its content. Shot in early 1992 in New York City and Miami, the locations ranged from hotels and burlesque theaters, to the streets of Miami. The photographs were stolen before publishing, but were quickly recovered. The book had a range of influences, from punk rock to earlier fashion iconoclasts such as Guy Bourdin, Helmut Newton and Robert Mapplethorpe. Sex has photographs that feature adult content and softcore ****ographic as well as simulations of sexual acts, including sadomasochism. Madonna wrote the book as a character named "Mistress Dita", inspired by 1930s film actress Dita Parlo. It also includes cameos by actress Isabella Rossellini, rappers Big Daddy Kane and Vanilla Ice, model Naomi Campbell, gay **** star Joey Stefano, actor Udo Kier, socialite Tatiana von Fürstenberg, and nightclub owner Ingrid Casares. The packaging for the book is made of aluminium, which was Madonna's idea, and is spiral bound and enclosed in a Mylar sheet. Due to the scandalous nature of the photographs and the media mayhem surrounding it from the initial preview of the book, Madonna did not have to promote Sex, except for a pre-release party and some television specials. Her publishers were extremely apprehensive about the release as well as its commercial potential. Sex was released alongside her fifth studio album Erotica, which was released a day earlier." ~ Wikipedia Release Date: October 21st, 1992 Cover: Spoiler Spotlight #1: Bad Girl Spotlight #2: Deeper and Deeper Some Madonna fans: Spoiler @Erotica @Uncle ARTPOP @Antonio @KING ELIZABITCH @MaryJaneHolland @MonsterJames333 @RAMROD @DeanWinchester @TheShameMonster @GagaInTheZone "My name is Dita, I'll be your Mistress tonight..."
