The Sydney Morning Herald[4]

The Sydney Morning Herald wrote: "This is the album Madonna was trying to make with Ray of Light. Sultry without reeking of sex; using trip-hop and similar rhythms as ingredients not the whole recipe; a patina of sadness without mistaking seriousness for worthiness."[4]
