专辑简介

有人说这是麦当娜最为成功的一张专辑，它使许多讨厌麦当娜“物质女孩”风格的人不得不对麦当娜另眼相看。1998年麦当娜推出《Ray of Light》，实验了新的音乐风格，她原本以为反映不会太大，但出人意料的是这张唱片迅速登上了排行榜的首位，并自此共4次荣获白金奖。并且被公认为是电子音乐的巅峰之作。“Ray of Light”（光线）在90年代末期改变了Madonna以前流行舞曲的风格，成为了Madonna继“Like a Prayer”之后销量最大的唱片。 这张专辑揉合了时下流行的电子舞曲元素，如Trip-Hop、Bass等，营造一种科技与未来的迷幻空间。这张唱片的制作是威廉姆-奥比特(William Orbit)，这是她自1994年的专辑《给孩子上床前讲的故事》(Bedtime Stories)以来第一次以全新的衣着、形象亮相，表明“物质妈妈”(麦当娜的别称，由其名曲“Material Girl”而来)已经与新的舞蹈音乐的风格完美地结合起来了，将传统流行音乐的风格推向一个新的领域。很明显，就象她的《Austin Powers》中的2首单曲一样，奥比特的努力使“Beautiful Stranger”迅速走红，并为麦当娜赢得了最佳电影MTV音乐电视奖，麦当娜又重新获得了新生。专辑使麦当娜得到当年最佳流行专辑、最佳舞曲以及最佳音乐录影带3个Grammy奖项。

歌词

I ran from my house

That cannot contain me

From the man that I cannot keep

From my mother who haunts me

Even though she's gone

From my daughter that never sleeps

I ran from the noise and the silence

From the traffic on the streets

I ran to the treetops

I ran to the sky

out to the lake

into the rain

that matted my hair

And soaked my shoes and skin

Hid my tears, hid my fears

I ran to the forest

I ran to the trees

I ran and ran

I was looking for me

I ran past the churches

And the crooked old mailbox

Past the apple orchards

And the lady that never talks

Up into the hills

I ran to the cemetery

And held my breath

And thought about your death

I ran to the lake

Up into the hills

I ran and I ran

I'm looking there still

And I saw the crumbling tombstones

The forgotten names

I tasted the rain

I tasted my tears

I cursed the angels

I tasted my fears

And the ground gave way beneath my feet

And the earth took me in her arms

Leaves covered my face

Ants marched across my back

The black sky opened up

Blinding me

I ran to the forest

I ran to the trees

I ran and I ran

I was looking for me

I ran to the lakes

And up to the hill

I ran and I ran

I'm looking there still

And I smelt her burning flesh

Her rotting bones

Her decay

I ran and I ran

I'm still running today
