Unlike recent collections Music and Ray of Light, the lyrical
content of American Life relies less on spiritual introspection
and more on woman-in-the-mirror confrontation. Here, Madonna
takes a look at where she's been, where she's at, and where she
hopes to go. Perhaps age, yoga, and the teachings of the Kabbalah
have truly enlightened Madonna about human nature铘nd the reality
that nobody's perfect. Musically, American Life continues where
Music left off, with stuttering beats and acoustic guitar providing
the bulk of the foundation. Highlights include the gorgeous lullaby
"X-Static Process," which is equal parts Joni Mitchell and Cat
Stevens; the tear-inducing "Nothing Fails," replete with gospel
choir; the electro-skewed "Mother and Father"; and the punky
"Hollywood", which is this album's "Ray of Light." Consider American
Life Madonna's own version of Don Miguel Ruiz's book The Four
Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom.⑬P
