She did interviews back then and she said that she really didn't like the recording process for BEDTIME STORIES and how SHE FELT that the album as a WHOLE wasn't COHESIVE... I WHOLE HEARTEDLY BEG TO DIFFER ❤
Madonna is so Goated bro.. I always knew who Madonna was and heard some of her big hits as a kid but after diving into the world of Madonna I am HOOKED.. I’m a 30 year old bald and bearded straight married man and I have no shame in saying Madonna is the shit and I listen to her music damn near religiously now 🤣😆
Madonna is at her best when she’s ahead of the curve. This album gets more innovative with each song. She may be giving us very fresh 90s pop in the first half. But by the time we get to Sanctuary, it’s like a glimpse into the millennium
@@LandelRey Dallas was already producing like that for TLC, which is why this sound is solely associated with the mid 90s. Dallas’ hands were everywhere around that time!
I think I just watched THE BEST Madonna reaction EVER!!!!!!!! I've been following your Madonna journey and I JUST KNEW you were going to LOSE YOUR MIND over this album. Generally speaking it goes like this: if you like EROTICA, you lose your shit over BEDTIME STORIES!!! Welcome to the Madonna train... BEST RIDE THERE IS!!!!!!!!!!!
In US it was #01 for 7 weeks (her longest ever). At the same time "Take a Bow" was Madonna first song to miss the TOP 10 in UK peaking at #16 (after 36 consecutive TOP 10 songs - an all time record until today). It was still TOP 20, another record Madonna holds in UK (68 consecutive TOP 20's - all her songs from 1984 until 2008 all her singles were TOP 20 except for "Miles Away" that peaked #37) "Take a Bow" only peaked #17 on European Hot 100 (where Madonna have 17 #01 and 49 TOP 10 Hits - but "Take a Bow" was not one of them).
@@nunogouveia6458 In Europe, particularly in Germany Take A Bow ''only'' peaked at #17 but it was on the charts for a damn long time, almost 30 weeks so it was a slow burner and most importantly it really kept the album selling...the album peaked in Springtime at #4 and sold over 500.000 here around the time Take A Bow was on the charts so people were buying the album rather than the single maybe? Let's remember, unlike the US, the singles charts in Europe was 100% sales based, airplay was not included and Madonna was more of an albumsartist at that point.
@@Marc-zi5cq That's true! "Take a Bow" and following singles did help the album to sell despite not becoming huge hits in most countries. Still Madonna later albums sold well and so did the singes from it ("Ray of Light", "Music", "Confessions On A Dancefloor"...) showing that the "Bedtime Stories" songs didn't appeal to a wide audience that would also buy them as singles as well.
Real ones know this one is a sleeper hit. Totally underrated and criminally ignored. Erotica is my favourite M album but this is top 5 out of an amazing catalogue of work. People think Like a Prayer is a perfect album but I disagree… there are several songs that have promise, but don’t live up to the hits from the album. Erotica and Bedtime Stories is when she really hit her stride as a mature artist. Ray of Light is next. Another gem. This is her career peak. She has even more great albums in her future, but she was at her best within the 90s, I think.
Erotica, Bedtime Stories and Ray Of Light are my top 3 Madonna albums as well. Music is close behind at #4. Also we have to make sure he doesn't miss out on 1995s Something To Remember, as it includes several new songs that were not on any other Madonna album.
I almost teared up watching your reaction to this, as crazy as it sounds. It's my favourite Madonna album. The album wasn't a huge critical or commercial success back in the day, but now I feel it's aged like a fine wine. It's a sensual experience. Beautiful. PLEASE do Ray Of Light next, it takes the feeling of Bedtime Story, turns it upside down and creates a sonic journey of pleasure, self-discovery, spiritualism, sadness, dance and electronica. Chef's kiss.
I feel the same way as you, I got emotional too as he is literally the best reactor to Madonna’s catalog I’ve ever seen. He absolutely appreciates her artistry and growth and it’s special to see that. This album was so underrated and overlooked.
Please, please, please, DON'T SKIP Something to Remember. Yes, it's not an album, but it has a bunch of songs, that are hard to come across anywhere else
This was so fun to watch. This is such an underrated album in her catalog. It gets overshadowed by Ray Of Light (critically acclaim, etc.) and Erotica (fan favorite underdog). But it's really beautiful and is a perfect transition between those two other 90s albums. "Bedtime Story" specifically hints at the direction she would go in. At the time I think it was seen as Madonna jumping on the R&B bandwagon but in retrospect it's clear that she put her own stamp on it. Not surprised you recognized "Take a Bow" because it was a huuuuuge hit. A big comeback for her after every said her career was over. "Secret" is my favorite song on the album, followed by the trifecta you mentioned. I also love "Forbidden Love." The videos are all amazing. Can't wait to see what you think of them. Oh, and "I'm hard." LOL. Dead.
I wouldn't really call it really a "comeback". It was her first #01 in 3 years but after "This Used To Be My Playground" hit #01 in 1992 she had "Erotica" to hit #03, "Deeper and Deeper" at #07 in 1993, "I'll Remember" 4 weeks at #02 in 1994 and also "Secret" at #03 later that year (a few months before "Take a Bow" hit #01).
I'm 22, and I got into Madonna's discography over 10 years ago. Because of a MTV interview with Selena Gomez. I quickly was enamored by her, Get Together became my favorite song, hasn't changed since. I've watched almost every interview, and one thing that has been an unwavering trait of Madonna is that she will understand and appreciate a culture or trend, then usees/appropriates it for art. It becomes a part of her for a moment (or version of herself), as she is always inspired and constantly changing. The Bedtime Stories project is one of many examples. In the human nature video she has cornrows, (tucking her blonde hair with black latex), Secret was a beautiful video with mostly black person and herself, showing beauty and love... She's been a geisha, cowgirl, danced with Batukadeiras, sang Portuguese, Spanish, French, Sanskrit, been in every culture lol and I love that about her. I think that if you're a global icon, then to an extent, it's your duty to acknowledge your inspiration, and celebrate all walks of life, which Madonna has always done without giving it a second thought. I'm happy that one of the most famous people to ever exist celebrated my culture, and presented her artistry with undeniable influence of many cultures around the world.
Inside of Me is my fave song on this album. It’s about her mother who died when she was five. She even has childlike vocals. So personal and touching. Easy to be sidetracked by the double entendre. Aaliyah is sampled on the track
The best quadruple! Ray of Light through COADF is my favorite decade of Madonna’s work. Awesome albums/songs, great music videos, her top 3 tours, great remixes, great album artwork and Ray of Light through the End of the American Life era being the last 6 years of the Maverick record label.
It is one of the most cohesive Madonna albums. I’ve been listening to the album, alongside 80s-early 90s Madonna classics like Like a Prayer, Erotica, or True Blue. I loved the album and thought it was so underrated. After watching you reacting to the album, I think I myself underrated it compared to how you reacted lol. Great video, I enjoy watching you getting excited listening to her discog. First-time listening to songs like Live to Tell, Rain, and the whole Bedtime Stories album gave me the ecstatic moments the same way. Think it’s time to go back and get lost in this album, again 😊
If you liked Sanctuary/Bedtime Story you need to do a Björk deep dive 👀she wrote Bedtime Story and the same dude that produced these songs produced Björk's entire first album
fun fact tupac was originally featured on I'd rather be your lover as they were dating at the time but her label didn't want it since they wanted to clean up her image after the erotica/sex book backlash! the original is here on youtube and to no surprise it was such a missed opportunity like that collab would've been huge
@@user-mz2ne4yh2t say what? Sanctuary is fucking top tier genius. Love Tried to Welcome Me is probably the weakest song on the album, but it’s still pretty good… this album is just that bitch.
I’ve bought every Madonna album on the day of release since True Blue 1987. Back in the day when you stood in line with others waiting for the record store to open. I’m glad you are enjoying this journey.
I adore Madonna of the 80's and my 2 favorite Madonna songs are from the 80's BUT she became a TRUE ARTIST in the 90's. The way she took risks, mixed different genres and just made things that were ahead of time...She's truly a phenomenal woman. Take a Bow and Forbidden Love are my favorite tracks here but I really love the whole track list. I wish Forbidden Love was a single
Exactly! - Human Nature is a fantastic response to all the criticism she received for Erotica. Sanctuary + Bedtime Story are the pure bliss that only masterpiece can evoke. You can definitely hear Bjork in the production and the music video for Bedtime Story is out of this world.
Although Madonna reached the superstar status in the 80s it is her musical output of the 90s that really shows her genius. Erotica, Bedtime Stories, Ray of Light and Music (even though it was released in 2000) are the proof of how amazing Madonna really is
Bedtime Stories is my favourite Madonna album. It was always the one I listened to the most. To this day I still have an original cd in my car, another one at home and the vinyl. It's my Sanctuary, whenever I need some peace of mind, travel in my thoughts or just relax. I love every song on this album without exception, but my heart beats faster in the quartet Forbidden Love, Love Tried to Welcome Me, Sanctuary and Bedtime Story. It was such an underrated album.
No! Other female singer will give you so many albums with different sounds. There’s a Madonna for everyone. There will never be another female singer like her. It’s like Elvis and Michael. It isn’t happening!
Michael Jackson sounded the same pretty much throughout from Thriller onwards. But that's not a bad thing. Not bad, not good. Just a statement. He's not very adventurous with his music production. It's okay.
I agree. I always thought of Madonna and Michael Jackson as the biggest stars of the 80’s and 90’s. Had Michael Jackson not had the ongoing controversy in the early 90’s, it would’ve been interesting to see if he would’ve given us more genius music and records the way Madonna did. Madonna kept going long after Michael hit that wall after “Dangerous.”
Loved this man. Was watching an interview where Madonna was saying she enjoyed her 90’s music most because thats where she got to be the architect of her sound/music. The Sanctuary/Bedtime Story is almost a prelude to what you will hear in Ray of Light and then some!
Funny you mentioned TLC when listening to “I’d Rather Be Your Lover” the same producer that produced most of TLC’s music in the 90s was the same producer that produced this album and Joi’s “The Pendulum Vibe” (which Madge was inspired by) ladies and gents its Dallas Austin
It's hard to say what is Madonna best. She change everything from album to album. She is unique in every way. Ray of Light probably will explode your mind.
I have a new found appreciation for this album as an adult. I was born in 91, my first real memory of Madonna is mainly the ray of light and music albums. I remember listening to a lot of her back catalogue when i was a teenager, and not really feeling bedtime stories. But now i absolutely love this album, its incredible. Crazy to think this is basically her most underappericated and overlooked album.
I loved watching this. I have always slept on Bedtime Stories as an album; but i have to go back and listen to it again. It holds up so well. The singles alone are some of my all time favorite madonna songs: Take a Bow, Secret, Bedtime story, human nature all 5/5
16:22 you have spot on lyrics analysis, that's why i really look forward to your reactions, you really pay attention to what you're listening to and don't just do overreactions faces and expressions so people click on the vid, i can see you really care, keep up with this amazing content!
Take a bow is her longest running No.1 single in USA The second half of this album is perfection although Secret is my favorite single. Rain and Secret made me a Madonna fan when I was a kid. If you liked Bedtime Story (the song) you should enjoy Ray of Light, her best album in my opinion
At the same time "Take a Bow" was Madonna first song to miss the TOP 10 in UK peaking at #16 (after 36 consecutive TOP 10 songs - an all time record until today). It also peaked #17 on European Hot 100 (where Madonna have 17 #01 and 49 TOP 10 Hits - but "Take a Bow" was not one of them).
@@user-jm1qf3qi1q Or most European countries - this album did not have a very European friendly sound. She was even in German TV and Italian TV singing this song live - It did climbed to and peak #02 in Italy but in Germany was only #18 (her only TOP 20 from this album). In France was #25 ("Secret" was #02 in France) and in Netherlands was only #34. Madonna have also over 40 TOP 10 hits in Netherlands but none of this album singles got there (only "Secret" and "Human Nature" were TOP 20 there). After "Fever" hiting #05 in Netherlands she would only hit TOP 10 again with "You Must Love Me" from Evita.
This album is wonderful. Beautifully written lyrics, interesting melodies, killer production, experimentation. Ray Of Light is probably even better. Madonna has made some truly incredible albums in her career. That's why I'm a fan, despite the fact that I don't relate to pop but more to rock, metal and electronica. I've never heard any pop star of her caliber make records like this.
@@TaylorRobertsOfficial Something to Remember is just 3tracks! I Want You (which is a FLAWLESS cover of Marvin Gaye’s 1976 hit) (YOULL ENJOY) You’ll See (you’ll love!!!!) (power ballad) One More Chance (cute;)
In 1994, I was 11 yrs old and I saved money to to buy this album. It was the very first album I owned and I listened to this album over and over, learning every lyric. To this day Bedtime Stories is my favorite Madonna album. Watching your reactions to this album brought back memories of me listening to this album. I'm glad to hear someone else enjoyed Love Tried to Welcome Me as much as I did!
Madonna is always ahead of her time. This album is fantastic. It contains some of her best songs like Secret, Human Nature, Take a Bow, Bedtime Story. Right now, it even seems more sophisticated.
This album is so well done and beautiful. After all that fuss during the Erotica period, it was so good seeing her soft side again. "Love Tried to Welcome Me" is my favorite. Loved your reaction.
So glad you liked Bedtime Stories. It is an amazing and underrated album in Madonna's catalogue. In terms of transitions from one song to another, my personal favorites are probably Like A Prayer-Dear Jessie to Oh Father, and also I'm Breathless-Now I'm Following You-Part 1 to Part 2 Which I know you liked, when you listened to it. I hope you don't skip Something To Remember-Although it features many ballads from Madonna's previous albums. There are several new tracks as well as singles that had not appeared on albums previously. Something To Remember also features my personal favorite Madonna song-You'll See which is often referred to as a sequel to Take A Bow which you will understand when you see the video clip.
Sanctuary is such a spiritual sounding track I have always loved it. Sounds fresh 28 years later. So many good memories of this era and all of the videos for the singles were epic. Can’t wait to see your reaction to Ray of Light. I enjoy your reviews and great to see you discover the legend that is Madonna.
Just an F/Y/I.....the song "Inside Of Me" was written about her mom (she lost her mom at a very young age). But the way of the title and the "sexual innuendo" vibe of the song.....the listener thinks it's about a "romantic/sexual" relationship. The "genius" of Madonna is often amazing!! :)
@@TaylorRobertsOfficial She was 5 when her mother died and that event directly helped shape her into the strong iconic worldwide goddess that she became....
G'day it's Steven from Down Under I've been on a wild and wonderful ride with Madonna since she first came on the scene in the early eighties. I agree this is one of her best albums, there are four singles that were released as music videos too. Actually Take a Bow is the song my eldest child use to love hearing when she was just twelve months old, she demanded hearing this and it would also settle her and put her in a good mood. I have memories associated with every single Madonna album... Anyway it's great that younger generations are enjoying brilliant pop music from idols like Madonna. ALL HAIL THE QUEEN OF POP
'Bedtime Stories' (1994) is definitely one of Madonna's best albums... She was supposed to go on a 1995 world' tour for this album however she got the lead part to portray Eva Peron in the musical film version Of 'Evita' (1996) While filming Evita she became pregnant with her daughter Lourdes.. Madonna won the Golden Globe for lead actress in a musical/comedy film and the song 'You Must Love Me' won the academy award for best original song from Evita.
Dude I have to agree, this is the album that made me a Madonna stan. This is a perfect album, no skips, and take a bow is one of my faves by her. You can hear baby face in the background thru the chorus too! When I listened to this album, I could see how she helped change the music in that time. I was a big pop kid too, I'm 33 and you can see how she influenced all the 90s pop. I dont have a peen, but I get it when you say you're hard for this album. Also, if you love good transitions, Green Days American Idiot album has 2 rock operas in it that have beautiful and perfect transitions, and Billie Eilishs new album Happier Than Ever also has some bomb ass transitions. Im LOVING this Madonna deep dive 😍
It was CO-written by Bjork and other guys who changed the original song. Then it came to Madonna and she co-produced the song by heavily changing it again so that it sounded more suitable to her and the album. As a matter of fact, Bjork has always said she doesn't like being associated to the song since it's totally another song.
Before you move on to 'Ray of Light', you really should check out her 'Something to Remember' compilation album. There are a lot of songs on there that aren't included on the studio albums that you've covered so far.
Madonna is at her best in the 90's! The ballads, the new sounds, the artistic videos and the amazing vocals! And my favourite albums: Something to Remember and Ray of Light. I am concerned about your life, Taylor... I think the Ray of Light listening... will definitely kill you!
I am just a casual Madonna enjoyer, so it's not idolatry when I say Madonna didn't make a single false move musically between the late 80s and 90s. I can't digest how some people still feel comfortable calling her untalented and "just" a provocative pop star. Even if she's not your favorite vocalist/songwriter/producer, her body of work up until American Life was pretty much flawless (IMO). Even when people praise her they only talk about her impact as a "cultural icon". But the music is fantastic too!
Thank you for appreciating Love Tried to Welcome Me. One of my favorite Madonna ballads. The lyrics are haunting, relatable, and stunning. Bedtime Stories is such a hidden gem. Love the reaction
This was the Madonna album that I first bought...and grew up with. Every song and lyric resonated and reflected what I was feeling as a love struck teenager to a special someone. It'll always be my most favorite of hers.
I'm so happy you love it! Personally I still think "Like A Prayer" & "Ray Of Light" (you still need to react to this one 👀) are her best albums artistically speaking, but Bedtime Stories is such a mood. Something you can listen to anytime, anywhere.
For me, I feel Like a Prayer is honestly overrated. The hits are among her best singles ever, but the album is inconsistent and there are several weak/mediocre tracks. It’s Erotica-Bedtime-Ray-Music that is her career peak with near perfect albums. Then there’s the stumble of American Life, followed by the comeback of Confessions… then really a steady decline until we get a flash of genius again with Madame X.
@@graphiquejack Agree to disagree. I honestly think Like A Prayer is a perfect album. Nevertheless, that does not mean its an album you can listen to anytime during your life. It's Madonna at her most raw, honest and emotional being. And I also think it's her best for what it meant when it got released. It also gave us the Blond Ambition Tour.
@@graphiquejack There isn't a single weak or mediocre track on Like a Prayer. It's perfect from beginning to end. Don't get ahead of yourself, you must not have listened to Rebel Heart if you think it was a decline. It's actually better than Madame X
@@survivorbest4589 Wrong. Love song is funky and the vocals are fire and it's MADONNA and PRINCE. Dear Jessie is cute, it sounds like a song that could be in a Disney movie and that just shows how versatile Madonna is. It's a cute sing, the production is amazing and it blends so well into oh father. Keep it together is a BOP. It's funky and catchy and it's just classic 80s dance music. Again, like a prayer is perfect from beginning to end
This album represented a new power to her because of the way this album was received, first of all it became Madonna's first album ever to be nominated for a Grammy in the best pop album category, second, it had several collaborations ranging from hip hop (Dallas Austin), r&b (Babyface) and Trance/electronica (Björk); 3rd this album never had a world tour to support it, however just some live performances and even so, it was a huge success giving her longest ever running no.1 single "Take a Bow" (7 weeks billboard 100) and also no. 1 in 3 different billboard categories (hot 100, adult contemporary, and mainstream top 40). It also contains the 2 song written directly in reference to her mother up to that point (Inside Of Me) making it a very introspective and personal album. For these and many other reasons Bedtime Stories is a career changing album for her, even though, the main change is still yet to come, (Ray Of Light).
One of my favorite Madonna albums, and easily one of her most underrated. I was born in '90 so I totally know what you mean about this '90s R&B/hip-hop sound of our childhood radiating from the album. I think that's why I like it so much - the album's so warm, nostalgic, and comforting. My favorites are probably Inside of Me, Human Nature, Forbidden Love, Take a Bow, and Secret. Really happy you liked it!
I've been a fan of this album since it came out. What's criminal is that a lot of people (fans included) rank this low in her discography, which I've never understood. I asked a fellow fan about it and their take was that Madonna had always been slightly ahead of the curve in trends, but that this album wasn't original in any way - it was merely mimicking what was already out there. Of course, I think they're full of it, but whatever. Can't wait to see your reaction to the albums Confessions on a Dance Floor and Hard Candy.
I put this on to take a nap to. Wow...You, during Forbidden Love and Love Tried To Welcome Me...with your eyes closed... I'll just say. Great visuals!!!
Absolutely the BEST Madonna reaction on youtube. AMERICAN LIFE is a very different and hard album to process at first but ..... years later has become close to a masterpiece. Listening to the vinyl is pure bliss. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. Subscribed.
I wish I could give more than one like!!! I was 11 years in 1995 and saw Take a Bow video in the background and the blonde woman on the screen caught my eye and i was transfixed on her BEAUTY. I later found out who she was and went out and bought the album. I was HOOKED. It spoke to me like nothing had ever spoken to me. I’ve been on the Madonna journey since and it has been an amazing life changing ride :) The videos to the album are gorgeous!
I can't wait for Ray of Light reaction!! It came out around the same time as "Older" by George Michael and "The Velvet Rope" by Janet Jackson aka 3 best pop albums of all time!
One of my favorites! I was in 10th grade when Bedtime Stories came out in 1994. I just turned 43 years ago a few days ago! Madonna is always ahead the curve and she doesn't receive the critical musical acclaim as some of her peers. She knows who to work and collaborate with and "Bedtime Stories" is evidence! From R&B royalty Babyface, Dallas Austin, Nellee Hooper, Dave "Jam" Hall and music genius Bjork, Madonna created one of the most sonically cohesive albums in her career. Now after watching this, I have to play "Bedtime Stories" on my Sonos, LOL.. (Love Tried to Welcome Me, Survival, Inside of Me, Sanctuary, Bedtime Story and Secret..hell the entire album are my favs).. Great review and keep up the great work!

This album is so underrated. And to think that in 2 years it's gonna be 30 years old, it baffles me. It aged so well, do not sound dated at all!
Madonna is at her best when she’s ahead of the curve. This album gets more innovative with each song. She may be giving us very fresh 90s pop in the first half. But by the time we get to Sanctuary, it’s like a glimpse into the millennium

The bigger in terms Of staying in No.1 , but is definetely Not her biggest hit.
@@remyparaskovia5499 But she's got a lot of big songs, I can't tell. I would guess the biggest is Vogue or Like A Virgin.
Real ones know this one is a sleeper hit. Totally underrated and criminally ignored. Erotica is my favourite M album but this is top 5 out of an amazing catalogue of work.

She has even more great albums in her future, but she was at her best within the 90s, I think.
I agree. Love Bedtime Stories and still listen to it.
Erotica, Bedtime Stories and Ray Of Light are my top 3 Madonna albums as well. Music is close behind at #4.
Also we have to make sure he doesn't miss out on 1995s Something To Remember, as it includes several new songs that were not on any other Madonna album.
@@Marc-zi5cq from Like a Prayer to Music there’s not a single bad album. It’s her best for sure.
Agree 100%
Agreed!
I almost teared up watching your reaction to this, as crazy as it sounds. It's my favourite Madonna album. The album wasn't a huge critical or commercial success back in the day, but now I feel it's aged like a fine wine. It's a sensual experience. Beautiful.
PLEASE do Ray Of Light next, it takes the feeling of Bedtime Story, turns it upside down and creates a sonic journey of pleasure, self-discovery, spiritualism, sadness, dance and electronica. Chef's kiss.
I feel the same way as you, I got emotional too as he is literally the best reactor to Madonna’s catalog I’ve ever seen. He absolutely appreciates her artistry and growth and it’s special to see that. This album was so underrated and overlooked.
Please, please, please, DON'T SKIP Something to Remember. Yes, it's not an album, but it has a bunch of songs, that are hard to come across anywhere else
Also, don't skip Evita.
This was so fun to watch. This is such an underrated album in her catalog. It gets overshadowed by Ray Of Light (critically acclaim, etc.) and Erotica (fan favorite underdog). But it's really beautiful and is a perfect transition between those two other 90s albums. "Bedtime Story" specifically hints at the direction she would go in. At the time I think it was seen as Madonna jumping on the R&B bandwagon but in retrospect it's clear that she put her own stamp on it. Not surprised you recognized "Take a Bow" because it was a huuuuuge hit. A big comeback for her after every said her career was over. "Secret" is my favorite song on the album, followed by the trifecta you mentioned. I also love "Forbidden Love." The videos are all amazing. Can't wait to see what you think of them. Oh, and "I'm hard." LOL. Dead.
I wouldn't really call it really a "comeback". It was her first #01 in 3 years but after "This Used To Be My Playground" hit #01 in 1992 she had "Erotica" to hit #03, "Deeper and Deeper" at #07 in 1993, "I'll Remember" 4 weeks at #02 in 1994 and also "Secret" at #03 later that year (a few months before "Take a Bow" hit #01).
Well said!
Yes it’s very overlooked I love the R&B influence she executed the sound amazingly
Bedtime Stories is my favorite Madonna album. It's so lush, so R&B, so ethereal. so hypnotic, It's perfect.
I'm 22, and I got into Madonna's discography over 10 years ago. Because of a MTV interview with Selena Gomez. I quickly was enamored by her, Get Together became my favorite song, hasn't changed since.
I've watched almost every interview, and one thing that has been an unwavering trait of Madonna is that she will understand and appreciate a culture or trend, then usees/appropriates it for art. It becomes a part of her for a moment (or version of herself), as she is always inspired and constantly changing.
The Bedtime Stories project is one of many examples. In the human nature video she has cornrows, (tucking her blonde hair with black latex), Secret was a beautiful video with mostly black person and herself, showing beauty and love... She's been a geisha, cowgirl, danced with Batukadeiras, sang Portuguese, Spanish, French, Sanskrit, been in every culture lol and I love that about her. I think that if you're a global icon, then to an extent, it's your duty to acknowledge your inspiration, and celebrate all walks of life, which Madonna has always done without giving it a second thought. I'm happy that one of the most famous people to ever exist celebrated my culture, and presented her artistry with undeniable influence of many cultures around the world.
Well said young man I feel so old 😜
You are literally my mirror. I'm 22 but discovered her music around 2015, Rebel heart album was my first album of hers
I love this comment so much.
Inside of Me is my fave song on this album. It’s about her mother who died when she was five. She even has childlike vocals. So personal and touching. Easy to be sidetracked by the double entendre. Aaliyah is sampled on the track
If you think Bedtime Stories is perfect, get ready for Ray Of Light, Music, American Life and Confessions on a dancefloor. Love your reactions.
The best quadruple! Ray of Light through COADF is my favorite decade of Madonna’s work. Awesome albums/songs, great music videos, her top 3 tours, great remixes, great album artwork and Ray of Light through the End of the American Life era being the last 6 years of the Maverick record label.
Survival is a trip!! I love the sweet and soft backing vocals of Niki and Donna, my fav song
Take a Bow was a US number 1 for eight weeks what i can remember in the early 90s.
It is one of the most cohesive Madonna albums. I’ve been listening to the album, alongside 80s-early 90s Madonna classics like Like a Prayer, Erotica, or True Blue. I loved the album and thought it was so underrated. After watching you reacting to the album, I think I myself underrated it compared to how you reacted lol. Great video, I enjoy watching you getting excited listening to her discog. First-time listening to songs like Live to Tell, Rain, and the whole Bedtime Stories album gave me the ecstatic moments the same way. Think it’s time to go back and get lost in this album, again 😊
If you liked Sanctuary/Bedtime Story you need to do a Björk deep dive 👀she wrote Bedtime Story and the same dude that produced these songs produced Björk's entire first album
Yesss I thought the same he needs to do a Björk deep dive for sure.
Post is my favorite album from Queen of Earth Björk
fun fact tupac was originally featured on I'd rather be your lover as they were dating at the time but her label didn't want it since they wanted to clean up her image after the erotica/sex book backlash! the original is here on youtube and to no surprise it was such a missed opportunity like that collab would've been huge
Along with Sanctuary it's the most boring song of the album tho, i don't think it could have save it that much
@@user-mz2ne4yh2t say what? Sanctuary is fucking top tier genius. Love Tried to Welcome Me is probably the weakest song on the album, but it’s still pretty good… this album is just that bitch.
@@graphiquejack love tried is my favourite!
@@graphiquejack the sound gets too tedious and monotonous pretty quickly, not my cup of tea
Oh man, that would of been quite interesting!! The world just wasnt ready for Madonna in the 90's!!
Love Tried to Welcome Me... that has to be one of my top 5 songs from Madonna. I am glad that you loved it.
I’ve bought every Madonna album on the day of release since True Blue 1987. Back in the day when you stood in line with others waiting for the record store to open. I’m glad you are enjoying this journey.
true blue came out in 1986
Wow, solid fan
inside of me is incredibly done
Madonna's "chill out" album, perfect for the bedroom, or relaxing in the bath.
As far as I'm concerned, "Sanctuary" is Madonna's most underrated song of all time.
Bedtime story is a masterpiece album
I adore Madonna of the 80's and my 2 favorite Madonna songs are from the 80's BUT she became a TRUE ARTIST in the 90's. The way she took risks, mixed different genres and just made things that were ahead of time...She's truly a phenomenal woman. Take a Bow and Forbidden Love are my favorite tracks here but I really love the whole track list. I wish Forbidden Love was a single
Exactly! - Human Nature is a fantastic response to all the criticism she received for Erotica.
Sanctuary + Bedtime Story are the pure bliss that only masterpiece can evoke.
You can definitely hear Bjork in the production and the music video for Bedtime Story is out of this world.
What a smart man!! This is as perfect as an album can be!!!!!!!!!
You’re the coolest guy reacting to Madonna’s art work!
Although Madonna reached the superstar status in the 80s it is her musical output of the 90s that really shows her genius. Erotica, Bedtime Stories, Ray of Light and Music (even though it was released in 2000) are the proof of how amazing Madonna really is
Exactly! In the 90’s she shut everyone up from the 80’s who criticized her saying “she wouldn’t last” and they themselves became irrelevant lol.
So true! 90’s is her peak creativity
Watching you experience is positively emotionally orgasmic, from Love tried to Welcome me to Sanctuary to Bedtime Story. Then the finale Take a Bow 🙏🏼
Bedtime Stories is my favourite Madonna album. It was always the one I listened to the most. To this day I still have an original cd in my car, another one at home and the vinyl. It's my Sanctuary, whenever I need some peace of mind, travel in my thoughts or just relax. I love every song on this album without exception, but my heart beats faster in the quartet Forbidden Love, Love Tried to Welcome Me, Sanctuary and Bedtime Story. It was such an underrated album.
It's my favourite album by anyone...literally listen to it all the time.🙌🔥❤
I love the album very much. It has a melancholy to it that I just love.
I teared up when he had a flashback on Take a Bow! So amazingly tender!!
I love this album so much, its her best work. The funk, the new jack swing, the R&B, everything that is fun and sexy is jammed in this masterpiece.
No! Other female singer will give you so many albums with different sounds. There’s a Madonna for everyone. There will never be another female singer like her. It’s like Elvis and Michael. It isn’t happening!
Michael Jackson sounded the same pretty much throughout from Thriller onwards. But that's not a bad thing. Not bad, not good. Just a statement. He's not very adventurous with his music production. It's okay.
I agree. I always thought of Madonna and Michael Jackson as the biggest stars of the 80’s and 90’s. Had Michael Jackson not had the ongoing controversy in the early 90’s, it would’ve been interesting to see if he would’ve given us more genius music and records the way Madonna did. Madonna kept going long after Michael hit that wall after “Dangerous.”
That's why Madonna is the Queen
Loved this man. Was watching an interview where Madonna was saying she enjoyed her 90’s music most because thats where she got to be the architect of her sound/music. The Sanctuary/Bedtime Story is almost a prelude to what you will hear in Ray of Light and then some!
Which interview is this?
@@fajarzakri4936 I can’t recall which in particular. I may have seen it on Insta but it was a few months ago now.
I think the change in style from Bedtime Stories to Ray of Light is so dramatic that I don't see any connection between these two albums.
Funny you mentioned TLC when listening to “I’d Rather Be Your Lover” the same producer that produced most of TLC’s music in the 90s was the same producer that produced this album and Joi’s “The Pendulum Vibe” (which Madge was inspired by) ladies and gents its Dallas Austin
It's hard to say what is Madonna best. She change everything from album to album. She is unique in every way. Ray of Light probably will explode your mind.
I have a new found appreciation for this album as an adult. I was born in 91, my first real memory of Madonna is mainly the ray of light and music albums. I remember listening to a lot of her back catalogue when i was a teenager, and not really feeling bedtime stories. But now i absolutely love this album, its incredible. Crazy to think this is basically her most underappericated and overlooked album.
Listening to the song bedtime story now, I actually feel that this way the door opener for the Ray Of Light era!
Madonna really took her career to new levels when she released Ray of Light (1998) and Confessions on a Dancefloor (2005) - you will be blown away
I loved watching this. I have always slept on Bedtime Stories as an album; but i have to go back and listen to it again. It holds up so well. The singles alone are some of my all time favorite madonna songs: Take a Bow, Secret, Bedtime story, human nature all 5/5
Your reactions turn me on 😂😂 you live the music! I love it
I remember when the record came out. I was 20! Went into Walmart picked it up and drove for an hour just around listening to it. Loved it! Great times
16:22 you have spot on lyrics analysis, that's why i really look forward to your reactions, you really pay attention to what you're listening to and don't just do overreactions faces and expressions so people click on the vid, i can see you really care, keep up with this amazing content!
Thank you for watching! I’m so glad you enjoy it!
That’s why I like his reactions.
Take a bow is her longest running No.1 single in USA
The second half of this album is perfection although Secret is my favorite single. Rain and Secret made me a Madonna fan when I was a kid.
If you liked Bedtime Story (the song) you should enjoy Ray of Light, her best album in my opinion
At the same time "Take a Bow" was Madonna first song to miss the TOP 10 in UK peaking at #16 (after 36 consecutive TOP 10 songs - an all time record until today).
It also peaked #17 on European Hot 100 (where Madonna have 17 #01 and 49 TOP 10 Hits - but "Take a Bow" was not one of them).
@@nunogouveia6458 yeh I was really surprised it didn’t do as well in the uk
@@user-jm1qf3qi1q Or most European countries - this album did not have a very European friendly sound.
She was even in German TV and Italian TV singing this song live - It did climbed to and peak #02 in Italy but in Germany was only #18 (her only TOP 20 from this album).
In France was #25 ("Secret" was #02 in France) and in Netherlands was only #34.
Madonna have also over 40 TOP 10 hits in Netherlands but none of this album singles got there (only "Secret" and "Human Nature" were TOP 20 there). After "Fever" hiting #05 in Netherlands she would only hit TOP 10 again with "You Must Love Me" from Evita.
Hands down my favorite Madonna album of all time. I can listen from start to finish every week. It’s incredible and completely underrated.👑👑
Best album ever 🙌
When you stopped at sanctuary… I totally understood ya 100% best reaction evvvvvver
This album is wonderful. Beautifully written lyrics, interesting melodies, killer production, experimentation.
Ray Of Light is probably even better.
Madonna has made some truly incredible albums in her career. That's why I'm a fan, despite the fact that I don't relate to pop but more to rock, metal and electronica.
I've never heard any pop star of her caliber make records like this.
Lol Ray of Light is 'probably' even better. It's 100x better. It's the best.
Bedtime Stories is one of my favorite albums by Madonna. You should listen to Ray of light album ASAP!!! I really enjoyed the video 🖤🔥✨
That will be the next album we get into!
@@TaylorRobertsOfficial don’t forget Something to Remember
It’ll be within the next month! IF he skips “Evita” which I hope he does.. yes she sounds great blahblahblah but he’ll find it boring
@@TaylorRobertsOfficial Something to Remember is just 3tracks!
I Want You (which is a FLAWLESS cover of Marvin Gaye’s 1976 hit) (YOULL ENJOY)
You’ll See (you’ll love!!!!) (power ballad)
One More Chance (cute;)
An excellent reaction! Truly enjoyed watching!
Thanks for watching!
In 1994, I was 11 yrs old and I saved money to to buy this album. It was the very first album I owned and I listened to this album over and over, learning every lyric. To this day Bedtime Stories is my favorite Madonna album. Watching your reactions to this album brought back memories of me listening to this album. I'm glad to hear someone else enjoyed Love Tried to Welcome Me as much as I did!
Madonna is always ahead of her time. This album is fantastic. It contains some of her best songs like Secret, Human Nature, Take a Bow, Bedtime Story. Right now, it even seems more sophisticated.
My faves; Bedtime Stories, Ray of Light, Music, American Life. Those IMO are amazing!
This album is so well done and beautiful.
After all that fuss during the Erotica period, it was so good seeing her soft side again.
"Love Tried to Welcome Me" is my favorite.
Loved your reaction.
Sanctuary is an all time favourite
So glad you liked Bedtime Stories. It is an amazing and underrated album in Madonna's catalogue. In terms of transitions from one song to another, my personal favorites are probably Like A Prayer-Dear Jessie to Oh Father, and also I'm Breathless-Now I'm Following You-Part 1 to Part 2 Which I know you liked, when you listened to it. I hope you don't skip Something To Remember-Although it features many ballads from Madonna's previous albums. There are several new tracks as well as singles that had not appeared on albums previously. Something To Remember also features my personal favorite Madonna song-You'll See which is often referred to as a sequel to Take A Bow which you will understand when you see the video clip.
Sanctuary is such a spiritual sounding track I have always loved it. Sounds fresh 28 years later. So many good memories of this era and all of the videos for the singles were epic. Can’t wait to see your reaction to Ray of Light. I enjoy your reviews and great to see you discover the legend that is Madonna.
It took her to record her 6th ALBUM to get her 1st GRAMMY NOMINATION FOR an ENTIRE ALBUM...BEST POP VOCAL ALBUM ❤
Just an F/Y/I.....the song "Inside Of Me" was written about her mom (she lost her mom at a very young age). But the way of the title and the "sexual innuendo" vibe of the song.....the listener thinks it's about a "romantic/sexual" relationship. The "genius" of Madonna is often amazing!! :)
I did not know that! That’s amazing!
@@TaylorRobertsOfficial She was 5 when her mother died and that event directly helped shape her into the strong iconic worldwide goddess that she became....
One of her best songs
G'day it's Steven from Down Under
I've been on a wild and wonderful ride with Madonna since she first came on the scene in the early eighties.
I agree this is one of her best albums, there are four singles that were released as music videos too.
Actually Take a Bow is the song my eldest child use to love hearing when she was just twelve months old, she demanded hearing this and it would also settle her and put her in a good mood.
I have memories associated with every single Madonna album...
Anyway it's great that younger generations are enjoying brilliant pop music from idols like Madonna.
ALL HAIL THE QUEEN OF POP
'Bedtime Stories' (1994) is definitely one of Madonna's best albums... She was supposed to go on a 1995 world' tour for this album however she got the lead part to portray Eva Peron in the musical film version Of 'Evita' (1996) While filming Evita she became pregnant with her daughter Lourdes.. Madonna won the Golden Globe for lead actress in a musical/comedy film and the song 'You Must Love Me' won the academy award for best original song from Evita.
Dude I have to agree, this is the album that made me a Madonna stan. This is a perfect album, no skips, and take a bow is one of my faves by her. You can hear baby face in the background thru the chorus too! When I listened to this album, I could see how she helped change the music in that time. I was a big pop kid too, I'm 33 and you can see how she influenced all the 90s pop. I dont have a peen, but I get it when you say you're hard for this album. Also, if you love good transitions, Green Days American Idiot album has 2 rock operas in it that have beautiful and perfect transitions, and Billie Eilishs new album Happier Than Ever also has some bomb ass transitions. Im LOVING this Madonna deep dive 😍
Facts!!!! There are no skips on this album lol
omg green day deep dive come on!
"BEDTIME STORY" was written by Björk which is why it's so absolutely weird and fascinating and just a fantastic addition to this album 👏
It was CO-written by Bjork and other guys who changed the original song. Then it came to Madonna and she co-produced the song by heavily changing it again so that it sounded more suitable to her and the album. As a matter of fact, Bjork has always said she doesn't like being associated to the song since it's totally another song.
This is my 2nd favorite album. My first one is Ray of light. I can't wait till you hear itttt
One of my favorite albums I love to hear when I'm painting. Thanks. :) Then again, anything, Madonna. :)
Before you move on to 'Ray of Light', you really should check out her 'Something to Remember' compilation album. There are a lot of songs on there that aren't included on the studio albums that you've covered so far.
Madonna is at her best in the 90's! The ballads, the new sounds, the artistic videos and the amazing vocals!
And my favourite albums: Something to Remember and Ray of Light.
I am concerned about your life, Taylor... I think the Ray of Light listening... will definitely kill you!
I am just a casual Madonna enjoyer, so it's not idolatry when I say Madonna didn't make a single false move musically between the late 80s and 90s. I can't digest how some people still feel comfortable calling her untalented and "just" a provocative pop star. Even if she's not your favorite vocalist/songwriter/producer, her body of work up until American Life was pretty much flawless (IMO). Even when people praise her they only talk about her impact as a "cultural icon". But the music is fantastic too!
Thank you for appreciating Love Tried to Welcome Me. One of my favorite Madonna ballads. The lyrics are haunting, relatable, and stunning. Bedtime Stories is such a hidden gem. Love the reaction
Transitions on confessions will blow your mind x
Omg yaaaaaaaas
Thank you for giving Madonna the respect she truly deserves.
This was the Madonna album that I first bought...and grew up with. Every song and lyric resonated and reflected what I was feeling as a love struck teenager to a special someone. It'll always be my most favorite of hers.
It's so exciting to see someone liking/discovering something I've luv'd and been a fan of :)
I'm so happy you love it! Personally I still think "Like A Prayer" & "Ray Of Light" (you still need to react to this one 👀) are her best albums artistically speaking, but Bedtime Stories is such a mood. Something you can listen to anytime, anywhere.
For me, I feel Like a Prayer is honestly overrated. The hits are among her best singles ever, but the album is inconsistent and there are several weak/mediocre tracks. It’s Erotica-Bedtime-Ray-Music that is her career peak with near perfect albums. Then there’s the stumble of American Life, followed by the comeback of Confessions… then really a steady decline until we get a flash of genius again with Madame X.
@@graphiquejack Agree to disagree. I honestly think Like A Prayer is a perfect album. Nevertheless, that does not mean its an album you can listen to anytime during your life. It's Madonna at her most raw, honest and emotional being. And I also think it's her best for what it meant when it got released. It also gave us the Blond Ambition Tour.
@@graphiquejack There isn't a single weak or mediocre track on Like a Prayer. It's perfect from beginning to end. Don't get ahead of yourself, you must not have listened to Rebel Heart if you think it was a decline. It's actually better than Madame X
@@nathanieljohnson5908 Love Song, Dear Jessie and Keep It Together..
@@survivorbest4589 Wrong. Love song is funky and the vocals are fire and it's MADONNA and PRINCE. Dear Jessie is cute, it sounds like a song that could be in a Disney movie and that just shows how versatile Madonna is. It's a cute sing, the production is amazing and it blends so well into oh father. Keep it together is a BOP. It's funky and catchy and it's just classic 80s dance music. Again, like a prayer is perfect from beginning to end
This is my favourite Madonna album. Masterpiece
My favourite album ever 🙌
This album represented a new power to her because of the way this album was received, first of all it became Madonna's first album ever to be nominated for a Grammy in the best pop album category, second, it had several collaborations ranging from hip hop (Dallas Austin), r&b (Babyface) and Trance/electronica (Björk); 3rd this album never had a world tour to support it, however just some live performances and even so, it was a huge success giving her longest ever running no.1 single "Take a Bow" (7 weeks billboard 100) and also no. 1 in 3 different billboard categories (hot 100, adult contemporary, and mainstream top 40). It also contains the 2 song written directly in reference to her mother up to that point (Inside Of Me) making it a very introspective and personal album. For these and many other reasons Bedtime Stories is a career changing album for her, even though, the main change is still yet to come, (Ray Of Light).
One of my favorite Madonna albums, and easily one of her most underrated. I was born in '90 so I totally know what you mean about this '90s R&B/hip-hop sound of our childhood radiating from the album. I think that's why I like it so much - the album's so warm, nostalgic, and comforting. My favorites are probably Inside of Me, Human Nature, Forbidden Love, Take a Bow, and Secret. Really happy you liked it!
This album is one of my favorite ones of all time
I've been a fan of this album since it came out. What's criminal is that a lot of people (fans included) rank this low in her discography, which I've never understood. I asked a fellow fan about it and their take was that Madonna had always been slightly ahead of the curve in trends, but that this album wasn't original in any way - it was merely mimicking what was already out there. Of course, I think they're full of it, but whatever. Can't wait to see your reaction to the albums Confessions on a Dance Floor and Hard Candy.
This album and Erotica keep getting better with time.
Madonna at the top of her game. Amazing album. Bedtime Story is the best song and it has an mind tripping video.
Bedtime stories is such a beautiful album! I started loving Madonna during the Bedtime Stories era.
Brilliant reaction as usual, love you. Wait to you see the videos!
Thanks for watching! ❤️
The best reaction
I put this on to take a nap to.
Wow...You, during Forbidden Love and Love Tried To Welcome Me...with your eyes closed... I'll just say. Great visuals!!!
'Sanctuary' środkowa część, gdzie Madonna recytuje..... Niesamowicie zmysłowe i sensualne
Absolutely the BEST Madonna reaction on youtube. AMERICAN LIFE is a very different and hard album to process at first but ..... years later has become close to a masterpiece. Listening to the vinyl is pure bliss. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. Subscribed.
I wish I could give more than one like!!! I was 11 years in 1995 and saw Take a Bow video in the background and the blonde woman on the screen caught my eye and i was transfixed on her BEAUTY. I later found out who she was and went out and bought the album. I was HOOKED. It spoke to me like nothing had ever spoken to me. I’ve been on the Madonna journey since and it has been an amazing life changing ride :) The videos to the album are gorgeous!
I can't wait for Ray of Light reaction!!
It came out around the same time as "Older" by George Michael and "The Velvet Rope" by Janet Jackson aka 3 best pop albums of all time!
My favorite album by Madonna, it's just perfect!!
You have to react next to her "Something to Remember" ballads collection. It has a lot soundtrack singles and 3 new songs.
One of my favorites! I was in 10th grade when Bedtime Stories came out in 1994. I just turned 43 years ago a few days ago! Madonna is always ahead the curve and she doesn't receive the critical musical acclaim as some of her peers. She knows who to work and collaborate with and "Bedtime Stories" is evidence! From R&B royalty Babyface, Dallas Austin, Nellee Hooper, Dave "Jam" Hall and music genius Bjork, Madonna created one of the most sonically cohesive albums in her career. Now after watching this, I have to play "Bedtime Stories" on my Sonos, LOL.. (Love Tried to Welcome Me, Survival, Inside of Me, Sanctuary, Bedtime Story and Secret..hell the entire album are my favs).. Great review and keep up the great work!
