Confessions II serves as a follow-up to Madonna’s 2005 release Confessions On A Dance Floor, still considered a seminal album in her back catalogue by many fans.

Her 15th album was preceded by the lead single “Bring Your Love”, a collaboration with Sabrina Carpenter, which the pair debuted on stage at Coachella earlier this year, when Madonna made a guest appearance during the “Please Please Please” singer’s headlining slot.

On Friday, it was confirmed that Confessions II had become Madonna’s first release to top the UK albums chart since 2012’s MDNA.

Even more excitingly, Confessions II cut Danceteria was revealed to be Madonna’s first solo top 40 in more than a decade (though in that time, she did chart with collaborations with other artists, while her 1985 number one “Into The Groove” also returned to the charts earlier in 2026 following a resurgence in popularity on TikTok).

Confessions II is also the “Like A Prayer” singer’s first album to give her multiple top 40 hits since 2008’s Hard Candy.
