Strong album with slight weaknesses.

This album has just about everything I like about Madonna. Good pop songs, dance hits and soulful ballads. A few electronic edits her voice disturb the overall impression little. I would have given too smooth 5 star, if it was not 1 coarse and 1 minor slip. Now I'm going through the songs times are as follows:

Music - The superhit knows well Anyone who has dealt before with Madonna's music. A brilliant dance song, which are teeming with energy.

Impressive Instant - is a rather bass-heavy dance song. Madonna's voice was distorted strongly electronically over large parts. Works pretty hectic and confused.

Runaway Lover - Begins as Song 2 ends, but is changing right at a good dance song. Madonna's voice sounds clear and lived well. The melody is the same ear and hangs.

I deserve it - Strong quiet song, backed by minimal guitar and drum sound. Madonna's voice sounds melancholic beautiful as the entire song.

Amazing - Strong song seamlessly to the title of "Ray of Light" - anknöpft album. Sounds a bit like ROL.

Nobodys Perfect - A quiet song. Here Madonna's voice was also heavily edited electronically, but unlike Track 2 comes this song benefit and fits perfectly with the melody and sound. Strong titles.

Dont tell me - know probably the most. Beautiful pop song with slight Country influences, good guitar sound as background music. Especially nice the string music in the intermediate part and at the end of the song.

What it feels like for a girl - a classic pop song in the best Madonna style. Especially in the chorus runs Madonna on top form and sings with much feeling. Was a deal of 3 singles. Unfortunately, the music video was filmed this with a dance remix version.

Paradise - is for me the absolute highlight of the album. A ballad that auftrumpft with atypical characteristics for a slow song. The verses are really only a kind of chant, sung while the Rafrain but the voice was altered electronically, in the intermediate part then a complete distortion of the voice and great string music. So you have never heard of Madonna. It still fits everything together and gives a beautiful song.

Gone - Almost at the end Madonna puts still a peaceful mood. Acoustic guitar, slow beat and her voice. Good successful (final) song.

American pie - One of Madonna's biggest hits in Germany, a cover version. I like most about the song. Produced to very smooth and glossy. Maybe the fact that he acts totally ausgeleihert by listening to oftes (also the original) liegts. The real problem is that "American Pie" sounds like a foreign body in this album. Melody and sound fit in any way to the other songs. Why this song still came up with the album is a mystery to me, especially since he has already been cleared as a single approximately 1 year before.

The album is a very well selected and varied work. I hear it still always happy and how to make the stop at each song that you do not like making (here Track 2 and 11), they are simply skips and enjoys the rest. A purchase is recommended in any case, you get Madonna usual high and high-quality pop music for it.

A few more words about the design and cover of the album. With their cowboy style Madonna has once again unleashed a fashion trend. I think the style well, just pretty to look at. It also shows once again the Wanndlungsfähigkeit the artist, and that it is always about nudity and sex in any way.
