What I love about Madonna's song "Ray of Light" is how there's this very happy guitar line that goes on for a few measures and could be a lead-in to an upbeat croony acoustic folksong, but then it lingers on one measure too long, and then out of nowhere this amazing dance beat line that meshes perfectly breaks in.
Really, I think it's one of the best pop song openings I've heard, esp. the dance beat line.
That said, the song gets shapeless after the first 3rd, and really has no direction.
If it had direction, I think it would be legendary.
If only someone had caught that and worked with the song longer before recording!
