Madonna and Sabrina Carpenter officially released their collaborative single, “Bring Your Love.” The duo debuted the track during Carpenter’s headlining set at Coachella, where Madonna made a surprise appearance.
The upbeat dance number, produced by Madonna and Stuart Price, will appear on Madonna’s forthcoming LP, Confessions II, out July 3 via Warner Records. The album is the continuation of Madonna’s 2005 album, Confessions on a Dance Floor. The singer previously shared the single “I Feel So Free.”
“People think that dance music is superficial, but they’ve got it all wrong,” Madonna said in a statement about Confessions II. “The dance floor is not just a place, it’s a threshold: A ritualistic space where movement replaces language.”
She added of her and Price’s approach, “We must dance, celebrate, and pray with our bodies. These are things that we’ve been doing for thousands of years — they really are spiritual practices. After all, the dance floor is a ritualistic space. It’s a place where you connect — with your wounds, with your fragility. To rave is an art. It’s about pushing your limits and connecting to a community of like-minded people. Sound, light, and vibration reshape our perceptions. Pulling us into a trance-like state. The repetition of the bass, we don’t just hear it but we feel it. Altering our consciousness and dissolving ego and time.”
At Coachella, Madonna joined Carpenter to debut “Bring Your Love,” and to duet with the younger pop star on her classics “Vogue” and “Like a Prayer.”
“Twenty years ago today, I performed at Coachella. I was in the dance tent, and it was the first time I performed Confessions on the Dance Floor, part one, in America,” Madonna told the crowd. “That was such a thrill for me, so you can imagine what a thrill it is for me to be back 20 years later in the same boots, the same corset, the jacket I had on earlier, the same Gucci jacket.”
She later added on Instagram, “Still flying high since Friday night at Coachella! Thank you to Sabrina and everyone who made it possible To Bring Confessions II back to where it began -was such a thrill! A moment in history, I will never forget!”
