“There was so much left unsaid, so many untangled and unresolved emotions - of remorse, guilt, loss, anger, confusion. I saw my mother looking very beautiful and lying as if she were asleep in an open casket. Then I noticed that my mother’s mouth looked funny. It took me some time to realize that it had been sewn up. In that awful moment, I began to understand what I had lost forever. The final image of my mother, at once peaceful yet grotesque, haunts me today also.”
-Madonna on 'Oh Father'

A beautiful and sad song. Always makes me think of my relationship with my own father. Glad to see it in the top 5.

"The Power Of Good-bye" is probably the most pop-friendly song from Ray of Light.
It was released as the fourth single and ended up being a moderate success but not
quite reaching the levels of "Frozen" or "Ray Of Light" before it.
It has a really good music video though.
Favourite lyrics:
Pain is a warning that something's wrong
I pray to God that it won't be long

It's just.... NOT GOOD.
HORRIBLE melody and basic production, awkward lyrics.

Y'all are a mess. 
Wow @ "Drowned World" though. Christ, I wasn't expecting that either.
