Confessions on a Dance Floor is the tenth studio album by American singer and songwriter Madonna. It was released on November 9, 2005, by Warner Bros. Records. A departure from her previous studio album American Life, the album incorporates influences from 1970s disco, 1980s electropop, and 2000s club music. Madonna initially worked with Mirwais Ahmadzaï but later felt that their collaboration was not moving in the direction she wanted. She then began collaborating with Stuart Price, who was overseeing her documentary I'm Going to Tell You a Secret. The album was recorded mainly at Price's home studio, where Madonna spent much of the recording period. Musically, the record is structured like a DJ set. The songs are sequenced and blended to play continuously without gaps. The title reflects the album's track listing, which begins with lighthearted, upbeat songs and progresses to darker melodies and lyrics about personal feelings and commitments. Songs on the album sample and reference music by other dance-oriented artists, including ABBA, Donna Summer, Pet Shop Boys, the Bee Gees, and Depeche Mode, as well as Madonna's own 1980s output.
