Madonna’s ‘Bedtime Stories [The Untold Chapter]’ Release
Limited Edition Deluxe Available November 28th.
Madonna celebrated the anniversary of her triple platinum album release “Bedtime Stories” yesterday, originally released October 25th, 1994.
With the anniversary comes the 2025 Limited Edition 11-track LP pressed on opaque silver vinyl.
“Bedtime Stories (The Untold Chapter)” will be released November 28th via WB/Warner Records.
“Bedtime Stories” found Madonna collaborating with a variety of producers, including Dallas Austin, Babyface, Dave “Jam” Hall, and Nellee Hooper, and she approached the proceedings with an eye (and an ear) toward a more mainstream sound than she’d pursued on her previous album, “Erotica.”
As a result, “Bedtime Stories” was both a commercial and a critical success, with “Secret” reaching the Top 5 in both the US and the UK, “Take a Bow” topping the Billboard Hot 100, and both “Human Nature” and the album’s title track making their way into the UK Top 10.
“The Untold Chapter” is an eight-track EP to mark the 30th anniversary of Madonna’s “Bedtime Stories.”
The companion collection includes early demos, alternate versions, and rarities that trace the evolution of Bedtime Stories‘ lush, R&B-influenced sound.
“Bedtime Stories – The Untold Chapter” will also be released on limited black vinyl and digitally.
A deluxe 2CD edition will also be available, featuring the original “Bedtime Stories” album and the new EP, along with a 20-page booklet of lyrics and illustrations.
Madonna collaborated with “Confessions on a Dance Floor” producer Stuart Price to shape this EP, editing and mixing previously unreleased versions into a cohesive new chapter.
The artwork features never-before-seen images from a 1994 shoot by Paolo Roversi, whose photos were also used for the “Bedtime Story” single.
