I'm afraid Madonna and her usual posse should get little credit for the sound of Ray of Light. William Orbit, the genius behind the modern trip-hop / groove-chill sounds should get most of the credit. His solo work is bonkers as well. He blends synth with piano, guitar and real strings for a truly unique and authentic sound. And the louder the better. As I have read from several sources, Madonna was dragged kicking and screaming (almost literally) into the studio to record this album. She and Orbit did NOT get along, and she wanted all credit for the album. If you think this is a fluke, listen to U2's "Electrical Storm." DAMN. Then look up William Orbit's album series "Strange Cargo 1 through 4." :). Now you get it!
They do NOT relate at all! Honey, I do not think that Britney Spears was part (although executive) of the writing process of blackout. The musical catalogue was ready for her: she just had to choose and put her "vocals" on. I am not blaming her though given the tight control that smothered her creative side whose peak was rather visible in In the Zone of 2003. So, do not compare the incomparable, I suggest. Just RUclips or Google Madonna's interviews in 1998 and you will see how much she was involved. Even William Orbit, the mastermind of Ray of Light the album, said it himself that Madonna was totally immersed within the creative process.
The most mystical instrumental on the album, aside from To have not to hold & Mer girl. William Orbit is a genius with his Hindi and Morrocan flare. Ray of Light is my FAVORITE 🕉
Patrick Leonard was also involved in almost every song of the record, but in the case of "to have and not to hold", Marius DeVries shuold deserve some credit, this song as we know it have his full influence. To have and not to hold is a full bossa nova song because of him. He is english and all, but he made beautiful bossa songs for other artists as well, like this version of "Aganju" he made for Bebel Gilberto, you should look and see how similar that song is to "to have and not to hold".
The most nostalgic piece of music in my entire life. There’s just something about this that takes me back to being a child. And it’s incredibly intense. I was born in 1990. Another one that does this to me is white town never be your woman. A complete masterpiece imo.
@@mh9706 Exactly! Madonna needs to accept her age, and focus back on her real fans! She’s doing the opposite of what I’ve always admired about her since I first heard Holiday in 1983. I was a confused gay young man and became obsessed with her vitality and originality! Now she’s just a phony 😞

The instrumental version is not on the album, but it doesn't matter buy it anyway. It's one of the greatest album ever made. The production behind each tracks is massive, the lyrics are beautiful ("To Have And Not To Hold" is a heartbreaker). "Ray of light" came out 20 years ago but who could tell ? trust me this album is out of time. Go Buy It ;)

madonna's production team was ahead of their time
Totally agree
indeed ray of light what a masterpice

@@daveth121864 kinda sad they didnt get along--they made some really good music! also i believe this is when they were both at their apex of careers.
@@daveth121864 Yeh spot on. Orbit also worked on All Saint's Pure Shores which may sound familiar to this to some...
Both Britney's BLACKOUT and Madonna's RAY OF LIGHT are masterpieces.
Long live Queens of Pop!
The only queen is Janet

True but Blackout and Ray of Light haven't much in common. I'd say the Madonna equivalent of Blackout is Confessions on a Dance Floor
Man, the string section...gives me chills, and made me fall in love with string sections in general.
Legendary Music SAME HERE! Its such a moving section. I think the trip hop drums complement the emotion.
hell I just went to liking shit again

the instrumental is sooo haunting... wow!!! and the bass is sooo delirious!
Omg! Maybe one of the most perfect things I´ve ever heard. viva MADONNA
Miguel Linares absolutely. It's I think my favorite song of all time, with the exception of classical pieces, naturally.
For me the best song of Madonna.
This whole album is great instrumental.

perfect production

I was born in 1990. Another one that does this to me is white town never be your woman.
A complete masterpiece imo.
Don't forget Robert miles's - children
The strings at the end got me and still get me to this day
High times with Madonna. William Orbit is a genius.
Madonna really needs to go back in the studio one more time with Patrick Leonard. Please!!!
Maybe he doesn’t want to
Not just one more time. She should work with him consistently. Instead of Mike Dean, Diplo, Pharrell. etc.
@@mh9706 Exactly! Madonna needs to accept her age, and focus back on her real fans! She’s doing the opposite of what I’ve always admired about her since I first heard Holiday in 1983. I was a confused gay young man and became obsessed with her vitality and originality! Now she’s just a phony 😞
Verse 1]
You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be?
You're frozen
When your heart's not open
You're so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You're broken
When your heart's not open
[Chorus]
Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key
[Verse 2]
Now there's no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken
Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You're frozen
When your heart's not open
[Chorus]
Mmmmmm, if I could melt your heart
Mmmmmm, we'd never be apart
Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key
[Verse 1]
You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be

Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key
If I could melt your heart

Mmmmmm, give yourself to me
Mmmmmm, you hold the key

Tight one.
This song is so much prettier to listen to without Madonna's voice. It truly is a gorgeous arrangement of instruments.
Beautiful but i think Madonna's voice gives this song a another demention her voice fits the music very good!

Frozen = poor man's Adagio For Strings
This song in my associations to cars fits to Mercedes W210, I dont know why hehe
Cant hear the (awesome) NORMAL version anymore ? Here is something to discover...
Where can I buy this?
Is this on the album? I'd love to buy it.
The instrumental version is not on the album, but it doesn't matter buy it anyway. It's one of the greatest album ever made. The production behind each tracks is massive, the lyrics are beautiful ("To Have And Not To Hold" is a heartbreaker). "Ray of light" came out 20 years ago but who could tell ? trust me this album is out of time. Go Buy It ;)
