Supersonic 49,376 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Apart from a few singles, I don't really like Ray of Light. I think it's starkly overrated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMonster08 4,528 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Maybe because they didn't expect a good album from her after the greatly criticized Erotica?? Hmm idk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serendipity 7,821 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 What was its message tho ? I neither thought nor suspected Ray of Light had a deep message.It was initially titled "Karma" and was about spirituality and enlightenment Basically the first PRISM See talent here-->http://bit.ly/2eqeUxK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KURUSHITOVSKA 20,442 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Maybe because they didn't expect a good album from her after the greatly criticized Erotica??

AlphaMonster 1,806 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Maybe because they didn't expect a good album from her after the greatly criticized Erotica?? Hmm idkI love Erotica. In my opinion, it closely followed COADF and Ray of Light, It had a unique sound too. It was probably criticized for its being all about s-xuality.

RAMROD 103,739 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 She remake it well, leveled it up, and turn the song into hers.The way Johnny Cash did to Nine Inch Nails' Hurt. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘥𝘰𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manul 7,377 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 This is a wild guess but maybe because the song itself is titled after the album, and it so happens that the album kind of redefined what we know as Pop, people praise that instead? it wasn't laaaahv Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebe 16,782 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 What was its message tho ? I neither thought nor suspected Ray of Light had a deep message.I won't go into it being "deep" just different. It was less materialistic and more spiritual. This was the time of the Spice Girls and Backsteet Boys as well as Usher and R.Kelly.The album Madonna put out was also a complete contrast to Bedtime Stories and Erotica which were the studio albums she had released before.In this album it wasn't about s-x, it wasn't about money and it wasn't some bubble-gum pop album. It was Madonna post-birth singing songs with mystical themes with an electronica sound.You can see it in the music videos too. ROL was her standing in the middle of a street flying past the cars and through the night life. Frozen was all spiritual with mystical references to Hinduism, Buddhism and Kabbalah.

Creyk 16,949 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 because it was a different, distinct sound for her that worked well and the theme was connected to an universal truth that everyone can relate to - hope Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
