Moonbeam said: lilgish said: Like it or not is the same rich, ego, veteran pop star, I'm still around you can't get me down lament song. Madonna is suppose to be above the love and hate, commenting on it and also defining it without any of the ambiguity she's famous for is just Britney "choatic" Spears like. I still like it better than Let It Will Be. Get Together is the perfect song for the sound she was going for and better than anyting on AL. I don't see any bitterness in "Like It or Not", but rather assured confidence. Plus, it grooves on like no other on the album. I think it's my favorite at this point! "Get Together" is wonderful as well. Truth be told, I'd say this album has no fewer than seven perfect songs for me. I love her attitude in "Like It Or Not".She doesn't sound bitter like on "Human Nature".This time,she sounds totally confident,even insisting that "Your love for me will grow".My favorite lyric is in the second verse... life is a paradox and it doesn't make much sense can't have the femme without the fatale,please don't take offense classic Madonna line | |

a Radio edit version though You know,I think there are only three songs here that could never be singles "Isaac"---too weird for pop radio "How High"---too subdued and boring "Future Lovers"----too weird for pop radio Every other song could easily be a single."Sorry","Jump" and "Push" won't have any problems on the charts.Those songs are insanely catchy and radio-friendly. | |

"Get Together" is wonderful as well. Truth be told, I'd say this album has no fewer than seven perfect songs for me. That groove is nice, though it's dying for a remix, some other tracks on here will sound better remixed, the only thing slightly thought provoking are the bible references. What does she mean by "your love for me will grow"
but ultimately the chorus is too drawn out (who I'am) and takes focus of the groove. You can call me a sinner You can call me a saint Celebrate me for who I am Dislike me for what I ain't Put me up on a pedestal Or drag me down in the dirt Sticks and stones will break my bones But your words will never hurt even in this thread those issues have come up. They always come up. Fam/Fan/Hater fodder. Madonna shouldn't have to affirm any self-confidence to the likes of her audience. It being the last track also is another Leave Me alone thing. It's not awful, just the weakest track on here. I thought it would be great from the opening though. I gave Let It Will be the last spot for another reason though. "Like It Or Not" was obviously inspired by all the criticism that she received during the 'American Life' period,and all the criticism that she continues to recieve because of her involvement with Kabbalah.She's saying "I am what I am and if you don't like it,too bad" | |

DavidEye said: SOS,what are the three songs that you like?
me dont know the names...i love push it. that one i know...but we were in my car listening so i didnt get the names. the album isnt horrible. its okay. it just IMHO lacks madge's sparkle. i think what gives Ray Of Light its energy is her vocal execution. She just feels what she is singing..(same for all of her great stuff in the past). When I hear this album her vocals are just kinda there. Sorta like Prince w/ Musicology. Space for sale... | |

Anxiety thinks that,on "Push",she is singing in a Beyonce style (lol),so now when I lsiten to it,I can't help but think of Beyonce 
but it's still one of my favorites. | |

Didn't 'Music' sell around the same amount during it's first week? Yep, and it had a #1 single to help sell it, which this one didn't. People just want to hear Madonna making dance music again. | |

"Let It Will Be" is definitely single-worthy,but only after the other strong songs have been released. | |

hey guys,what are your favorite segues on the album?
I love how "Future Lovers" blends into "I Love New York" I also love the way "Forbidden Love" segues into "Jump".That percolating beat sounds alot like the early 70s novelty hit "Popcorn",but I don't think it's a sample. | |
