Default TiBB's Classic Album Club - Album 1 Madonna 'Ray of Light'

Spoiler:




I have had this idea for a while now, in basically a spin off of Shaun's album club, instead of recent and new releases, we will be reviewing and scoring classic albums! I use the term 'classic' loosely, it's more well known albums that people will hopefully have a strong opinion on. This will hopefully also give people an opportunity to listen to some old stuff that they wouldn't have.

Scoring will work in the same way as Shaun's - score each album out of 10 and I will calculate the overall score at the end of the week.

I'm not sure this will take off, so depending on how many reviews I have we'll see if it continues.

Starting us off is Madonna's most acclaimed iconic 1998 album Ray of Light.



You have until next Friday at 7PM to review and score!

Any suggestions will be taken into consideration, but I'm thinking the next two to be Born This Way by Lady GaGa and Hounds of Love by Kate Bush.

...it’s a great first choice, Daniel...I’d forgotten how much I love this album......one of my Madonna favourites for sure...there’s obviously nothing I can say about Madonna as an artist..she‘s just amazing......and she has such an amazing music history of albums and performances etc...I’d forgotten how wonderful her lyrics were as well in some of her songs...

..Mer Girl...

I ran from my house that cannot contain me
From the man that I cannot keep
From my mother who haunts me, even though she's gone
From my daughter that never sleeps
I ran from the noise and the silence
From the traffic on the streets
I ran to the treetops, I ran to the sky
Out to the lake, into the rain that matted my hair
And soaked my shoes and skin
Hid my tears, hid my fears../...beautiful lyrics.......

...favourite tracks...?...well all, obviously......Ray of Light transports us up, up, up and etc in a dazzling ray of light and and the whole journey has us crashing down in oceans of emotions as well..Drowned World/Substitute for Love is Madonna at her emotional greatest...and ughhhh, Mer Girl......Swim, Candy Perfume Girl/gorgeous....there are no less favoured tracks because this is Madonna, baby....thank you for the re-visit, Daniel......

...Ray of Light....a very brilliant and dazzling...9/10...
