The songs are also very much part of my high school year memories, and when MTV was real music TV and not this reality-tv nonsense. It would be enjoyable to hear her drumwork but alas there are no extant recordings otherwise surely they would be available,but I believe the bands that she fronted or collaborated with had no record deal. The lyrics are very personal, thoughtful and eloquent throughout, sharing a deep understanding of Madonna's personal transformation and new maturity after her daughter was born. If You are a massive fan of Madge You sound get this it is just great and one of the best albums of her career and the Nighties little Star is a great song as well another song which is just beautiful and show's off Madges maternal side. Ray of Light is now an all time favorite and I never would have thought Madonna of all artists would be part of my all time favorites.

Language - Regardless of country of origin all tracks are sung in English, unless otherwise stated in our description. En el vinilo hay ciertos sonidos que no se escuchan en Apple Music (que es la app que yo uso para escuchar música y se supone tiene tecnología Lossless, que evita la pérdida de sonido de discos que han sido convertidos de análogo a digital); son ciertos detalles en las mezclas que no se perciben (o al menos yo no percibía) al escuchar la música a través de la app. What makes this album even more special are the Indian, Middle Eastern influences throughout the tracks, especially in songs Swim, Skin, Shanti, Frozen, To Have Not To Hold.

Mystical themes are also strongly present in both lyrics and music as a result of Madonna embracing Kabbalah, her study of Hinduism and Buddhism, as well as her daily practice of Hatha Yoga.

Astonishingly good album, ‘To Have And Not To Hold’ and ‘Frozen’ have to be 2 of the greatest songs written. Nothing Really matter's the sixth track on the album is obviously about her daughter Lourdes from looking from the video she is holding a plastic blue bag which resembles a baby in a blanket. Here and there I heard her music and it was never something I bothered to take seriously given the style. Grabbed a copy of this in Australia and I’m very pleased with the SQ I did find the track Ray Of Light compressed and lacked punch.

Following failed sessions with them, Madonna pursued a new musical direction with English producer William Orbit.

The meditative elements of Orbit's electronic programming gives such a beautiful Eastern flavor as well. Unlike other veteran artists who attempted to come to terms with electronica, Madonna was always a dance artist, so it's no real shock to hear her sing over breakbeats, pulsating electronics, and blunted trip-hop beats. And with the Kabbalah informed sentiment of 'Nothing Really Matters' "Baroness Ciccone" has eased into 10th gear and cruising along the Hyper Galactic Highway.I remember this coming out in the 90's and was blown away how good it was, also how weird some of the tracks were too. It is such a beautiful song which should have really been released as a single from the Ray of light album .
