True Blue/Like a Prayer/Ray of Light/Confessions on a Dance Floor I feel are the quartet everyone will agree came at monumental moments in her life. True Blue proving she could achieve so much more and create a full on ALBUM of material and prove she could have major hits and hit the social narrative/discussion too in her 20s...Like a Prayer shocked the world, it was ambitious and creative post public divorce and in her early 30s she took over the entire world/paved way for Blond Ambition. Ray of Light after mass controversies/healing/having her first child/big wins for Evita at 40 she showcased she could reinvent in a massive creative way which again inspried millions globally in her Drowned World Era and Confessions at nearly 50 she hit another major peak after massive backlash again for her politics/she healed herself (literally after breaking bones) and poured out her soul and created a record breaking hit album/grammy winning and pioneering. Whilst yes I adore many albums of hers inbetween (Bedtime Stories/Erotica/I'm Breathless, Music,American Life, Rebel Heart and Madame X are all top tier stuff) I do feel those 4 will be forever regarded as her opuses for sure

As for the album, I instantly loved most of it upon my first listen, some of it took a minute for me to appreciate fully, but it is indeed a masterpiece through and through. I was just getting my first taste of freedom after graduating high school when it came out, so I'm grateful that it always takes me back to a time I remember so fondly.

It's interesting to hear her say "Vogue" felt a hundred years away....Awhile back, I was watching "Truth or Dare" for my 500th time (give or take a few) and I found myself thinking how strange it would have been to see the "Blond Ambition" incarnation of Madonna perform "Ray of Light" or to see how she would have reacted to hearing it. They feel like a lifetime apart, and yet there were only SEVEN years between them.

Ray Of Light is one of those special albums where you feel like the stars had to align perfectly in order for it to be created.... And they did! Having Lourdes was a real inflection point for Madonna, it brought out a maturity and depth in her that was captured and displayed beautifully on this album. This was/is her high watermark in terms of output, but also a defining moment for pop music in general. Man, I miss those times, and still love the album 25 years on!

Madonna is a fine artist working within the medium of pop music. I don’t know any other mainstream pop artist that is so deeply entrenched in nearly every facet of the creative process. Just listen to any interview from any era, and she can expound upon her references, the visual aspects, and succinctly communicate her ideals for a given work. It pains me to see her compared to her younger contemporaries, because what she does is still a cut above conceptually, visually, and intellectually. She’s painfully underrated as an artist, and it sucks most don’t get the irony in her work.

I was 6 years old when this album came out, As a 90s kid I am thankful my parents had a copy of Dick Tracy on VHS...I watched that after seeing BATMAN 1989/BATMAN RETURNS, it had a similar comic book noir energy..loved Madonna's songs on that...my parents had Breathless soundtrack/Immaculate Collection and accompanying video collection on VHS as well as Bedtime Stories....and that really brought me at a young age into the universe of Madonna...Ray of Light my parents played all the time...and it's true it really is an album that transports you truly outside of yourself....and that is incredible...Madonna was 40 here...achieved so much already/incredible albums and videos yet ROL solidified she could do it and bring the energy into the millenium and beyond too! No one today I think could ever achieve such incredible liberation/freedom and manage a incredible concept album (Beyonce, Gaga, maybe Lana/Taylor...but it all comes across too manufactured these days) I love hearing and seeing BTS on Madonna's albums this was a real triumphant first for MTV to see Madonna creating an iconic album (the impact would not be known then,,,,but over 20 million records and Gramy wins later history was made) I would have adored hearing the process of her work on Confessions...we kinda got to hear about the process of Madame X and her fight to get back to direct studio sessions without interfering voices/too many cooks in the kitchen like the majority of Pop music post 2010....this is art...this video clip alone could be studied and shown for decades to come too! thank you Madonna.

I love how stoned she was during this lol and it's even funnier looking at her face saying none of them were on something

I was obsessed when this album came out and this video was perfect at the inside look of making the songs especially when she "accidently" showed the original title to Skin. As for guitars, clearly we all know she took lessons later on in her career :-)

Both Ray of Light & Like A prayer are both masterpieces. None of her albums have topped them.

It’s interesting to hear her say she’s not a musician in that aspect and yet she knew which place her vocals or music should be at. She was definitely the manager of the album. 😅
