Ray of Life Never underestimate Madonna's power of persuasion. By nearly all critical accounts, Madonna's first album of new material since motherhood is her richest, most accomplished record yet. This trio of Texans presents an album full of great, original, innovative tunes. The songs examine the societal ills, personal woes, and other disappointments in life, but these sentiments are filtered through the band's unique brand of musical optimism. In this album, her follow up to the successful The Woman in Me, Twain accentuates the choruses and simple dance rhythms while downplaying the country elements.
