Summary

Jess is joined by Edward Russell, host of “Inside the Groove,” to dissect the stories behind a plethora of Madonna songs via the use of multi-tracks, demos, isolated vocals and interviews. We reveal the stories behind “Erotica,” “Deeper & Deeper,” “Vogue,” “Music,” “Don’t Tell Me,” “Hung Up” and "Live to Tell." Plus, discussion around unreleased songs, the Erotica album artwork, "Rain," “American Life,” and the polarizing “Bitch I’m Madonna.”
