Music - Madonna

Madonna had her creative peak in the late Nineties with 'Ray of light'. When that album and its singles had been a great worldwide success, she followed it up with 'Music', the album and the single of the same name. Unfortunately, her voice was falling back to the rather childish range she had before she used a vocal coach for the movie 'Evita', and so the quality of her recordings also slowly deteriorated.

Fortunately, 'Music' is still a very nice song, produced by Mirwais Ahmadzai and promoted with a music video incorporating animation and special guest star Ali G. The single was a number 1 hit in Australia, Canada, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Switzerland, the UK and the USA. In the Dutch Top 40, 'Music' peaked at number 4.

My collection: 7" single no. 3223
Found: Record fair, 2000
Cost: 10 guilders
Tracks: 'Music' / 'Cyberraga'

  1. I think Confessions on a Dance Floor was definitely the best album Madonna did following Ray of Light.

    I think she is nowhere near finished with cranking out great music. Every album is well done and very creative. I always look forward to her next one.

  2. Come on MOV!, Madonna is still making good music. But you just don't want to listen to it, because the times they are a changing!
