Lyrics:
Zephyr in the sky at night, I wonder
Do my tears of mourning sink beneath the sun?
She's got herself a universe gone quickly
For the call of thunder threatens everyone
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
Faster than the speeding light she's flying
Trying to remember where it all began
She's got herself a little piece of heaven
Waiting for the time when Earth shall be as one
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
Quicker than a ray of light
Quicker than a ray of light
Quicker than a ray of light
Zephyr in the sky at night, I wonder
Do my tears of mourning sink beneath the sun?
She's got herself a universe gone quickly
For the call of thunder threatens everyone
And I feel
Quicker than a ray of light, then gone for
Someone else will be there
Through the endless years
She's got herself a universe
She's got herself a universe
She's got herself a universe
And I feel
And I feel
And I feel like I just got home
And I feel
Quicker than a ray of light, she's flying
Quicker than a ray of light, I'm flying

The level of production on her late 90s/early 2000s songs was 20 years ahead of the curve.
Yup.
Law the Islam
Yeah and therefore it's kinda sad that she changed Ray of Light to a different arrangement on the Celebration tour. There really was no need, as this track still feels modern today.
Tienes toda la razón, este video es más moderno que los actuales
@@user-gi3in8ge2k Gay.
I’m now 50 and this song was released when I was 28, life is quicker than a ray of light. Sad and happy.
in 28 thankyou for this comment ! cherish the day tomorrow doeesnt exist !! Its as if im already 80 years old life is short . life it up !!!
old bastard:)
I feel this comment. I was 13... 1998 was a good year.
I’m like 28 years into your age so I’m wondering how does it feel?
Beautiful song! God bless you
This is Madonna's best song. No debate
Peak Madonna.
I dont think she ever sounded better than this and she was naturally beautiful at the time.
This was 26 years ago. Of course she was still naturally beautiful back then. She just needs to take out the butt implants and she's good to go..
I agree…this was the one and only album from her I liked. I was OBSESSED
"naturally beautiful" no shade but she was 40 when this song dropped, she absolutely had work done at this point of her career, even if just lip filler.
agreed. this whole album was damn good too. more modern works, not so much.
She makes me so hot 🔥 i believe she can heal
For those of you asking, yes. The 90’s were this fast
Oh...the XTC days...😂😂
Lol I can see what you mean. Time flies.
So true.
The 70s were MUCH faster - and fun.
@@Discodancez sounds like the narration to the start of a movie
Context: in 1998 Madonna took a huge risk and adopted this techno/electronica genre, which was radically different from any previous works she’d done.
The pay off was simply glorious. Queen slays
She's very intelligent. A musical genius. A true artist who always re-invents herself.
Npt just radically different to what she had done before but while swimming in a sea of Britneys and Christinas, N*SYNCS and Backstreet Boys. And at an age where most would consider done for. This era ROCKED!
All thanks to the Red Bulls she drank.
@@NandoDisco Madonna's previous release in the late 1996 Evita soundtrack is Musical and her last studio album Bedtime Stories was R&B oriented only its 3rd single Bedtime Story is Electronica
@@NandoDisco modonna and I are the same age, she's the best.
People say she peaked in the 80s, and maybe she did. For me, this was her best moment. Mesmerizingly beautiful and totally in tune with the times, courtesy of Mr Flood and her onion belt.
Her peak was definitely the 90s - early 2000s
I think she will just carry on being brilliant and sexy and...❤
This is a cover of a much better song
@@petebagwell6666 both versions are lovely imo
90s early 2000s was my favorite time of Madonna
HUGE British 90s Influence in this album, stands head and shoulders above the rest of her catalogue
This is THE BEST album she gave us!
Mother fed us so well
true
Yeah it's better with a Redbull
Mmm...I think it's the Immaculate...🤷♂️
It's been downhill since! 😭
This song captured the vibes, the speed, the essence of the 90s... and it feels still fresh
yes the manager can accumulate in the other sense of the word so combustible
I'm praying for my girl Madonna she seems like she's feeling kinda rough just need to do that meditation and yoga everyday girl love u
I'd like to see every member of humanity live their lives as fast as madonna's Ray Of Light music video for the rest of their lives.
Late 90s and early 20s. And then the planes started dropping the buildings. Still going on in Europe. World gone crazy. Bio and trade war evolving. Economy collapsing. We badly need another 70s. Need a restart. We had enough war.
Too bad Madonna has become a typical hollyweird eccentric freaks.
This song is timeless, full of energy and powerful ❤ Madonna nailed it ❤
Agree girl
Mulher visionária é tudo!
no doubt
My favorite Madonna song. I miss the 1990's.
where ??? was just a blurr
Also I miss that decade.
I was an awful job, but the music was awesome.
This, and Hung Up.
Born in 91 i miss those times, stuck between 2 generations sucks, i was bk home by street lights on but am tech savvy
"Ray Of Light" is definitely an immeasurable masterpiece, beautiful year 1998!!! Thanks A lot...
Timeless..
Well said that 😂
Why didn't madonna date the guy from savage garden?
Amazing!
@@derekstaroba because that guy is gay
This video represents not only peak Madonna, but peak NYC as well. Great times
If you weren't alive then you will never get it. We were something back then. Would any of us have ever believed how bad it would get in such a short time.
@@jermiahduddleston4695 Its not the first time I have read that...I wonder what really changed and what triggered it
The 1990's was absolutely the best decade of music for Madonna. This is absolutely one of her best songs.
I cannot express how much i look up to this woman as an artist. She has inspired my stuff in so many ways.
We didn't know, but that's was the transition between the 90's and the 00's
This and Scatman's World.
U2 video for Desire is from 1988 , and it did similar effects like this before Madonna and Scatman.
Sad the '00's didn't keep the pace
Late 90s early 00s
Music Muhammad
The production on this is fucking legendary.
wllian orbit :)
and the videoclip, jonas akerlund
full disclosure, haven't heard this song in many years and listening to it today on the good headphones, spot on man this crushes... the breakdown at about 1:23 - this is top shelf
Using the word legendary is legendary
Shes so talented.
Rainha, obrigada pela noite inesquecível de sábado em Copacabana!!!❤🎉
Eu fui ❤
Maravilhosa❤
When the 90s was a decade of hope, optimism and prosperity. Oh how we have fallen. The 90s was suppose to be the beginning of greater things.
Not really, we were just all young, healthy and full of hopes. In 25 years people who are now teenagers, gonna say the same thing about 2024.
Who said that about the 90s? that it was about hope etc
@@kennydolby1379Heavens no, I don't think there's a youngster in the world that thinks the 2020's is a hopeful time 😂
The 90s were okay, but only by 2020s standards. Other than that they pretty much sucked.
@@kennydolby1379 And they'll be right because 2024 is much better than whatever will be happening then.

@maxwesty And she was in her 40s wasnt she? When this came out, it was like, Madonna was fading....and then when this came out, people rediscovered her.. She was on top again.
Yup. 2022. Used to go raving from 99 to 2002. Surprised no one played this
@@stevencoardvenice are you?
I remember hearing this EVERYWHERE in 1998. The radio, the grocery stores, the mall etc. I was 8 and I was obsessed with this song. The 90s had the best EVERYTHING! Music, TV, Film. Omg take me back! Nostalgia hurts so bad. This song could still come out in 2021 and still be a hit! I miss 80/90s Madonna.
9 or 10 at the time: what a trip this was when I first saw/heard it.
Actually, Torn by Natalie Imbruglia was played more often than this song in 1998
@@joshall1998 I'm pretty sure they were played about the same amount. Same with Celine Dion's "My Heart Will go on", and Cher's "Believe".
fucking same ....8 years old totally obssessed by this ong
@@joshall1998 true, but who remembers Imbruglia on '21? Not many...
I’m 13 years old all over again. Take me back to the 90’s!!!
she looked the most natural during this era.
Because she was young Da
Cannot believe she has chosen to look her way.
She was 40 here. Today she was 65. 🤦🏻♀️
I want come back at these days when MTV was full of quality music
Then you'll need to jump backwards another decade.
Fook yeah💃💃💃🤗
I think islam will dominated mtv and usa

@@arikzainal1870 what do u mean
The late 90's were incredible. I was 18 in 1998, and there's nothing I wouldn't do to relive that time of my life.
@task force whisky It looks that way.
GREAT TIMES
I was 17 in 98. I'm with you all the way
Funny thing is, everyone I've known in my life, whether they were 18 or 48 in 98, wants to go back to the 90's. Something damn special in that decade
But you wouldn't have the money you have now, the degree, the wi-fi and worsg yet, your I-phone 13 🤯😲
@@dickmarx1298 There's different reasons for it. First off, at that time, the internet was still in diapers and people were a lot more face to face. Technology was just starting to take off. Things are completely different now. The millennium changed everything for us.
I was in Dallas for the Celebration tour and this song was played. What a vibe and energy Madonna has she is definitely like a ray of light ⚡️🪩🪭
Stream Madonna for the Celebration Tour hangover!
For me, this is the best song she ever did. It fires on all cylinders.
All four?
@@janipt It would be eight if she took ecstasy recording it.
No one can get it out of my head that this will always be Madonna's best song of all time. Probably the song that most conveys the vibe of the late 90s with this TB-303 synthesizer running wild in the song and giving it a danceable vibe (very typical of electronic music from that time), but at the same time pleasant. This song represents very well the time when society was still discovering globalization in such a raw way, driven by the emergence of new technology called the internet that was spreading and making people's lives and the world around them very accelerated.
Today, in 2023, we see many of the evils that the Internet can bring to society, but at that time I still believe that people still knew how to use the Internet in a good way, so much so that there was a boom in global economic growth in the early 2000s (even with September 11th...)
This song literally represents very well the new world that society was entering, which was the 21st century. An increasingly connected and digital world, which if you don't pay attention will see your life go by so quickly without you noticing (Especially for those who lives in a large urban center)
I'm saddened by the decline in Madonna's musical level since the 2010s until today. Celebration was his last really good single. But if through her present Madonna has not immortalized herself, through her past she has already achieved that.
You could have said that it's a good tune in way less words! No offence!
@@lawrenceomond7341but he wanted to say more than just that
@@lawrenceomond7341He just interpret the message of the music and video of what relevantly happens in the society nowadays. So sad people tend to ignore the message of such beautiful musics.
💯% agree thanks.....
i agree with what you said, but i also think its normal that she has changed because shes a human and thats what people do when they go thru different periods of their lives
her new music is actually very decent and not bad at all, it is a different and new madonna. We as fans have to appreciate her for all the things she has done and the huge impact shes made in this world and pushed change for the better when no one else did. Shes a strong brave,powerful and iconic woman and thats why we love her.
Absolute nostalgia. This song actually feels like home
I totally agree with you there home is where the heart is right here. July 2021 ❤🙏❤😎👍😎🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Hindu philosophy
The 90s were the best of times for many, including Madonna. Jesus what happened.
The menopause
Because they were at the peak of their careers, including Madonna, and they still needed to prove themselves to be relevant. It was not the time to rest under the laurels.
Feminism
Dear Madonna: in 2000 I was working my first full time job, changing my first child's diapers, finishing the basement on my first house, and volunteering for the local EMS on nights and weekends. I saw this video on TV and immediately bought the album. That album became a refuge for my sanity the next 2-3 years. Thank you!
Don't give her credit for something YOU did. Madonna isn't a messiah. She didn't give you money or the strength for your house or baby. You worked for that. You earned it. Her album might've been the soundtrack of your life at that time, but you deserve the credit. Not her.
Pssst, Madge never gave AF about you, your basement, your nappies or your kid. But if it kept you from self harm and drug abuse( seems likely) than Mazel Tov.
An absolutely iconic album. Nothing comes close to the musical creativity that both her and Orbit put out at that time. Ray Of Light is an absolute masterpiece.
Her best!
It was a secret experiment: take a song written for Björk and see how much better it sells with Madonna singing it. Watch the entire clip and listen closely.
Agreed!
Almost everything she does becomes EPIC.
@Boy Gorgeous What decade were you born? If you have a look through the catalogue of Madonna videos you will find she has outstanding musicians 'play their instruments'. Not real music? Then that can be said for 95 percent of the trash on radio since the year 2000.
"There comes a time in an artist's career-reer-reer-reer..."
Team Crystal!
🤣🤣🤣
Lol came here after Crystal
Hippie drippie trippie soooongs
BOOOTAY
Ray of Light, Vogue, Deeper and Deeper and Thief of Hearts are among the best dance singles from the 90s. Madonna rules!
The 80s and 90s without Madonna is simply unthinkable. She is Legendary. ❤
Coincido contigo madona a marcado la música brillante y extraordinaria,me pregunto q dirá ahora de la música aberrante q existe
Madonna is now 65 years old. She is the most successful female artist of all time. After four decades, she is still inspiring so many of us. No one has had such an impact on society as she did. There will never be someone like her again.
Happy birthday, Madonna. You truly are the ray of light❤❤❤❤
I agree. Looking back on it.-she took everything to new heights. Extremely impressed the past year by her.
Happy Birthday. You are AMAZING
Cher is better and more successful than madonna
@@swolfe9668mm I have doubts about that. The present artists all of them have songs who took "inspiration" in Madonna's body of work
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This song is a masterpiece! It could be released today and it would still be fresh.
This was a re-released. Kinda. This is just madonnas more modern version of the original.
@@1javixD red bull brought me here
Love this sound very hypnotic and good feeling she is soooooo smart
Yeah but impossible to get such great music producers now. May be humans these days are unable to find hidden talents in themselves and following routine life... IT, technology, AI, Machine Learning, Data Science... That's it
It was actually a cover from the late 60s
An under-appreciated part of this track is William Orbit's lean and uplifting production.
"While recording, Orbit kept "Ray of Light" a semitone higher than the singer's limit, resulting in a strain added to the vocals. "She got frustrated when we were recording but you want that bit of edge with singers, that thing of reaching. You can't fake it, and you can hear it when she cracks it on the record," he recalled." - Wikipedia article on this track.
Fantastic. 😃
I did not know that William orbit produced this album. Maybe that helps explain why I like it so much
I listened to this song when I first went away almost independently. Never heard it before until I visited Cyprus with my brother and I remember listening to it on the balcony whilst the sun rose and feeling such a tremendous, independent and conquerors feeling
SEE! CAIRO EGYPT! ...NEXT EXIT RIGHT LANE.....>>>>>>>..
Madonna, William Orbit, and Jonas Åkerlund. An unlikely combo that made something beautiful.
I am shocked that it sounds refreshing today. Love it.
When you make history, things get better and better.
all old music does compared to the cesspool of auto-tune garbage we have to wade through to find anything worth listening to.
It couldn’t because everything sounds shit today , it belongs back in 1998 when music was great , anytime before 10 15 years ago was refreshing. Idiot
@@LostBeats333 funny enough Cher made autotune poplular in the same year with Believe, but well Cher can actually sing and does not purely rely on it.
Madonna also used a lot of vocal effects on her most recent album Madame X but I still think it's acutally her best work in over a decade thanks to her experimenting with different sounds again and not playing it too safe.
Music was out in 2000 and its full of autotune. still a great album
Ray Of Light was Madonna's best album. By a mile.
Jack Shields easily...
I agree.
Agreed.
I agree but love her entire catalogue
I know I'm gonna sound like 'that dick', believe me, I totally get it, but the REASON Ray of Light was so brilliant was William Orbit. She had the talent to recognize his unique sound (from Nitzer Ebb to Jimmy Somerville) and latch on to his already, long cultivated, at the time, really-underground brand. So yay. Worked out great for both of them.
Who’s still listening to this in 2024
Timeless classic 🙏🏻👏👏👏👏
I’m not a fan of Madonna but damn this song has definitely left an impression on me 🎶🎼🎵🎼🎶
Agree.
Peter griffin drinking Red Bull brought me back to this classic hit. I’m 48 remember when this song come out it blew up like crazy.

I am 51 and still dance like mad to this song. Ray of light for sure!!!
Her vocals were INSANE in this song. I was and still am blown away . Her range was bomb !
almost beyond words !!!
It Is Not true
I think it was a result of just having filmed Evita. She'd done intense vocal training for that role. It clearly paid off with this record. 💜
@@triphophoney2981 is there a live version I can find where she does that high note at the end? I’m scared to look lol

She is queen of pop
Just one of the ladies of pop.
Lady: Madonna/Spears.
Princess: Cristina Aguilera.
Queen. *Uknown* probablyTaylor Swift (POV ask any Swiftie)
One of my favorite songs and it’s 2024 grew up on this and I’m 35
Have never been a fan of hers but I think she did have a lot of songs that were better than she was given credit for. This is definitely one of her best.
Thanks
Yes, every once in a blue 🔵 moon she hits one out of the park 🏞️
Well many would give her credit. She’s basically a legend in pop music.
Not originally her song though…
Agreed!
For me, the Madonna of 98 is the most beautiful Madonna ever!
I adore her
Madonna is so beautiful in this video 😍
Agreed. Her daughter had just been born and she was so happy and relaxed. Her music of this time reflected that. I think she had just meet Guy as well.
I’m going to say a year later, 1999, in the Beautiful Stranger video is Madonna at 40 and the most beautiful I have ever seen her. And arguably my favorite Madonna song.
Yes,at the end of 90s she was really beautiful
Exactamente
Me and my mom used to love dancing to this song when I was young. Hearing it always brings out the little kid in me again ☺️💕
this still remains one of her best tracks ever.
i'm gen z and recently discovered ray of light album by the queen madonna and may i say its a MASTERPIECE
OMGGG SAME 😭
GLAD YOU FINALLY SAW THE ray of LIGHT
It’s my most favorite album of all time. I’m 35 now and I’ve loved it since I was 12 years old.
I am glad you are discovering this now. I was a teen when she started...there really is a reason she lasted from the end of the Boomers to 4 gens later! Pure genius in her way to reinvent herself and capture everyone along the way!
yeah Z0ZZ
This is one of her best songs.
Oh yeah.
Watch #MadameX vids.
Don't forget to check Medellin, Crave, God Control, Dark Ballet and Batuka out.
Very underrated if you ask me.
This album and Confessions are her most finest work.
True. It IS her best song and the only one, I like.
Yes....sure.
The 90's wasn't a decade, it was an emotion.
How can this song be both a sound of its time and sound ahead of its time at the same time
It was a retro sound when it was released
Probably the best song that Madonna has ever made
Vogue ❤
Not probably. Definitely
Like a Prayer
Not when La Isla Bonita exists
Frozen. Take a bow. Hang up 😅there's a lot!
Whenever this plays I get goosebumps. There's something about it. Perhaps this was her peak? It's the perfect adult contemporary song! So transcendental, and yet so quotidian.
I think she peaked with Confessions, Hung Up. At 47 she was cut like granite, smoking fucking hot, moving those curves like no one’s business and knocking the young up starts dead. It was a big F you to an industry that wanted the young hot next big thing. It was her saying ‘hey I’m still here, motherfuckers, and I’m not going anywhere!’
Yess❤❤❤
Pinch punch 👊 first of month. Happy may day 😆😆😇😇❤
If I was as articulate as you I would have said the same. Point well made.
Just listen to True Blue. What an album!
me too
Never was a fan of Madonna ….yet absolutely loved this mystical, hippy , sixties , seventies long hair flowing phase she floated through during this time .
She has so many hits it’s crazy
She really did everything in Music... and never failed
You see her face lately?
@@skinny4 yes 🥺
@@skinny4he said in music not life
I've still never heard do an acid dinner skiffle song
I hate getting old she was so hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I was 10. I'm 34 now. This album had such an incredibly profound impact on me as a kid and it's astonishing how much this album still plays an integral part of who I am. The opening riff and synths of this song....man! I discovered myself to this record. 5th grade was brutal. Especially when you start realizing you're gay. Ray of Light was my solace. I finally saw her perform it a decade later in Philadelphia for The Sticky and Sweet Tour. My heart was ready to burst out of my chest I jumping so hard. My throat was burning from screaming so loud. This song catapulted me into super fandom. It introduced me to electronica and club music. That would lead me to artist like Daft Punk. Groove Armada, Groovejet, Armand Van Helden, Modjo etc. Electronica then led me to disco and ultimately to my greatest love of all, HOUSE! I scoured the internet, still in its' infancy, for the teeniest tiniest samples of remixes to all the singles. I was obviously way too young for the clubs, so I'd stay up late on Saturday nights and listen to Q102, Philadelphia's number 1 hit music station, where they'd have DJ Richie Rich broadcast his live set from a club called Egypt on the Waterfront. I would record the remixes on cassette tape and play them out! I was poor and the oldest of four. My single mom with three jobs wasn't trying to buy me a new cassette every week so I had to carefully choose which songs I would record over and try hard not to record over the Madonna remixes. God, what a time!
DJ Richie Rich from Egypt on the Waterfront 😭😭😭.
I AN ALSO 34 and was 10 too haha
I recall that exact broadcast. And constant advertisements for some club called "The Cave", which I'm pretty sure was a for ladies/gay dudes stripclub.
En 1998, yo tenía 15 años, y recordé este video y WOW WOW WOW que joya. Ella tenía 40, yo el próximo año los cumpliré. Ya estamos viejos, y GANANDO COMO SIEMPRE.
What an utterly magnificent story! Thank you so much. ¡Muchas gracias, hombre!

Such a nostalgic song - a sound that reminds of you of the innocence of our childhoods in the 90s and early 2000s with memories of colour and technology slowly creeping into our everyday lives. Its an inexplainable feeling that I wish kids of these days could experience 😭❤️
I love how her every song no matter what decade sounds more contamporary and fresher to this day than of the other artists, truly a visionary and raw talent in the league of her own ❤
I took 3 meanings from this:
1. She's illustrating the effects of doing speed to get work done, as well as using it as a way to speed up the proessing of potentially negative feelings (emotional avoidance)
2. She's talking about how quickly life can pass us by and how we need to pause sometimes and slow down for mindfulness (like how the song slows at 2:47)
3. She's starting to realise the tediousness of following trends and trying to BE the next "in thing". ("She's got herself a universe" "Quicker than a ray of light then gone, for someone else will be there through the endless years".) She equates her own fame with a literal flash of light in human history. Quite humble tbh.
A good analysis.
1. The record was released around 1998 before people had connectivity and a widespread understanding of the human condition.
2. This time was a race of capitalism into an unknown situation without confirmation of stardom.
3. Ketamine was quasi legal and a pleasant respite from reality.

No dude. This was simply Madonna's spiritual awakening.
You did your homework. Excellent observations.
The album that made me realize how iconic this woman was in music. I thought she was done in the 90's then she dropped this gem. I had to give her the respect she deserved.
This was some of her best work
This was the last mdna album i enjoyed listening to, her next ones were not my thing, now it's 2019 and yes, i am curious about Madame X.
I'm not happy with MadameX. Now with that reggaeton shit? Mmhhh, byebye Mdna.
Its not her song.its a cover but its a brillant version
This was bad!!
My most beloved Madonna's track. So much energy.
seeing the comments proves me that there is a ray of light at the end of the tunnel, may you all who have got better are living the best life right now :)
Its the train moron
The air was just different in the 90’s. The sun hit your face differently. The music, the people, the sights, the sounds-everything. I’d give anything to go back. It was the last great decade on this earth.
I’d believe it. At least then there was no Corona virus or crazy people enforcing pronoun neutrality on already child friendly media.
You might be right!
@@borediideath6526 trans people still existed in the 90s, but it was easier to be insulated from our issues because organizing through the internet was more difficult so we were more isolated from each other and it was harder to make ourselves heard
90’s were good because you had childhood innocence then. But if you had the same adult mind and went back it would suck ass. Hateful and bigoted people with poor technology.
@@borediideath6526 you just had to shoehorn in your transphobia huh?
RAY OF LIGHT is not just an album, it's a religion.
aight chill now...
🙏
@@johnkinsey2394 and madame x?
Nah, it's an album. A great one though.
So true. My Mom bought the CD back then but I was the one who listened to it on repeat. Not a Madonna fan, but I absolutely loved Ray of Light (the album and the single).
Best song from her best album. True to Madonna's originality in every single video she ever created. The video captures the essence of our pace of life. And includes images of the NY Trade Center towers which came down 2 years later.
Please explain how this is anywhere near the category of "good song". :-)
@@lepidoptera933721 millions album sold. 😘
Magnificent 90s vibe. Madonna is the best.😊
My mother was obsessed with Madonna and played this all the time. Madonna.
🙄🙄
she most definitely is a trend follower
@@boob2307 I meant it as a bit of a joke, but she was undeniably one of the biggest stars of the 90s
My son had the same life 😂
Then she is a Badonna..
Madonna was everywhere in 1998 receiving accolades for her fantastic Ray Of Light album. Great memories of a simpler and happier time in our world.
Ray Of Light single topped the charts worldwide and ended up being one of the summer’s biggest songs.
In the UK when Frozen was released knocked Celine Dion’s epic My Heart Will Go On from No. 1
People were much happier.
@@psychedelicfright85 Not only that, people were less mean back then.
Wait, is that correct or wrong?
@@matthewpaanotorres7309 no, that's true. Sure, without social media, you couldn't see a lot of what people thought... and that was peace of mind. Gen Z have so much stress and depression, and they don't even realize that they create most of it themselves. I wish they would stop worrying about what everyone else is doing or saying so much.
The album was a flop
The peak of Madonna. And the same with Sweden, which Jonas Åkerlund squeezed out in the video. A different world today and I still miss and love the energy in this song!
Sipping a Red Bull while listening to this masterpiece. Thanks Mawdoona.
Happy 25 years ray of light
This is the best Madonna’s album so cool and crazy and it makes you dance and have fun
Happy 25 years to me lol
@@vanessasanha528 happy 25 to you ❤️🔥

Never getting bored of this album.
Best hit for the passing of humanity in the new millenium..perfect
Cool words! What happend!? Didn't realise how good times were. X Well we did, then it all went a bit Pete Tong.. 😆 Loving the the New #MADAMEX ❤️
Well said !
Today everything is quick and fast
Like in video
Then 9/11 happened.
@@jordanh2679 You're not wrong. I myself was two then, but I feel I should have been born at least ten years earlier.
It's not because those people died. It's because those living turned to degeneracy. We didn't have all these new fake genders. There weren't many transsexuals (as they were called back then).
I truly think this is her peak.
Her voice was gorgeous.
The production was perfect.
The songs were mesmerizing.
Madonna, Pat Leonard and William Orbit.
When you drink redbull 😅
Iconic song. Whose watching with me in Feb ‘21? Long live the Queen.
Awesome Video For Post COVID-19!! 😃😄😃😄😍🥰😍🥰🤗🤗
never stopped loving her and will never stop!
the family guy version is 1000% better
@@Paul-qy2cu loving both
Yes! Feb 20th. I just rewatched the Rupaul Madonna Rusical and then came straight here
Shes was in her 40s when this song and video were released, she projected a genuine and natural beautiness.
May be one of the best female artist ever.
That's why she's the QUEEN of pop
aand she's still hot
Definitely
She had just had a baby as well.
@@jco1788 Lourdes Leon?
2024 anyone?

I LOVE THIS SONG!!! 😎👽❤
Her best album, it's a masterpiece! The whole era was sublime 👑❤️💋
This song always gets me CHARGED UP!
she just charges up my battery's to get dancing plus it was in the windows xp ad windows xp by far the best operating system and she is the queen
Like in a electric chair?
Electric chair?
After Confessions, this is her best album ❤
She really does have herself a universe doe.
Madonna: *Time goes by so slowly*
Also Madonna:
Lol
Hahhahaha
Time goes slow because Madonna is fast af. lol
Who was she singing about " She's got herself a universe"?
@@thewindow4125 herself
Who can forget this song? It was plastered all over the final two years of the 90’s. Reintroduced during the Windows XP launch. What a time to be alive.
Her voice is absolutely beautiful ❤
This song is best for the spiritually awakened.
MOST SUCCESSFUL FEMALE ARTIST OF ALL TIME MADONNA
Most overrated
TRUTH HER MUSIC IS REAL.
She's a queen
Yes, she's a queen!!!!
...yes, yes yes we have heard it.
what are you even trying?
I love this song. Hard to imagine now but Madonna went from 'Like A Prayer' in 1988 to this in 1998. Time goes by whether you notice or not.
Like a Prayer came out in Early 1989. Ray of Light was released March 17,1998. Sire/WB wanted to release the New CD the Week of her 40th Birthday(8/16/1998), but August 16th fell on a Sunday, and there was a concern that delaying the LP would seriously damage its sales, so it released in time for Spring Break.
Omg love this ❤❤❤❤❤❤
these were the golden years of american culture.
Society peaked mid to late 90s. Before iPhone, social media, 9-11 etc
@@stevencripps i would say a year or 2 after 911. ive never seen patriotism in my like than around that time.
I miss the 90s and early 2000s, best time, best year, best peak of everything. Just it was great times.
