I can see that, and agree somewhat - but I'd choose American Life as her most lyrically honest and personal album. Songs like Mother & Father, Easy Ride, Nobody Knows Me, Nothing Fails, I'm So Stupid - I don't know what was
really going on in her personal world at the time but it was definitely a hard time for her.
On another note, I gave Erotica a spin last night. I've forgotten how much I love Waiting and Thief of Hearts. "You'll do it, you'll take it. You'll screw it, you'll fake it."

Take that Annette Bening.
