What Grammy category did Confessions on a Dance Floor win in 2007?

The story behind the answer

Confessions on a Dance Floor won the 2007 Grammy for Best Electronic/Dance Album.

The award was presented at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards, held on February 11, 2007. Madonna’s tenth studio album competed in a category recognizing electronic and dance-oriented full-length recordings, and its victory reflected the album’s strong disco, house, and club-music identity.

The album was built as a continuous DJ-style set, with producer Stuart Price helping shape its seamless transitions and dance-floor sound. Its lead single, “Hung Up,” prominently sampled ABBA’s “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight),” connecting Madonna’s contemporary club production with late-1970s disco.

A common mix-up is confusing this album award with a song award. “Hung Up” was nominated in song-related Grammy categories, but the Grammy win referenced here belongs to the album itself. The category’s wording has also appeared in slightly different forms, including “Best Dance/Electronic Album.”
