Erotica is the fifth studio album by American singer Madonna, released on October 20, 1992 by Maverick and Sire Records. Erotica is a concept album about sex and romance, including her alter ego, lover Dita, inspired by actress Dita Parlo. Some of his songs also take on a more confessional tone, influenced by the loss of two close friends of Madonna due to AIDS. Erotica received generally positive reviews from critics, who considered it one of Madonna's most adventurous albums and praised her comments about taboos and AIDS. Commercially, the album was less successful than Madonna's previous albums, peaking at number 2 on the US Billboard 200 chart, becoming her first studio album not topping the chart since her debut. Internationally, it topped the charts in Australia, Finland and France, and also entered the top five in a number of other countries, such as Canada, Germany, Japan, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
