31. Though Madonna would collaborate with William Orbit on three tracks on her follow-up to Ray of Light, the album otherwise represented a seismic shift from its predecessor's warm-and-gooey spirituality (a Book of Revelation to many fans, anathema to others). Mirwais's defiantly experimental, Eurotrashy, wholly artificial production-awash in Auto-Tune and Nintendo beats-was bound to disappoint some, but no one does ersatz like Madonna, and fittingly, this is also one of her most soul-bearing works, from the feminist "What It Feels Like for a Girl," to the Toni Morrison-alluding "Paradise (Not for Me), to "Nobody's Perfect," a slow burn that's never less than affecting.
