the best pop song of history

BEST ARTIST OF ALL TIME

I liked the meaning behind this track..combining sex and spiritualism…this is my fav ever Madge track!

The back up band and producer of this female singer is amazing.

a pop masterpiece, one of the goat, if not the GOAT

I’m by no means a Madonna fan but this is easily one of, if not the, greatest pop song I’ve ever heard

2019??

Life is a mystery;
Everyone must stand alone.
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home.

When you call my name,
It’s like a little prayer:
I’m down on my knees;
I want to take you there.
In the midnight hour,
I can feel your power;
Just like a prayer,
You know I’ll take you there.

I hear your voice
(It’s like an angel sighing.)
I have no choice;
I hear your voice,
(Feels like flying.)
I close my eyes,
(Oh God, I think I’m falling
Out of the sky!)
I close my eyes,
(Heaven, help me!)

Like a child,
You whisper softly to me;
You’re in control,
Just like a child.
Now I’m dancing,
(It’s like a dream;
No end and no beginning.)
You’re here with me;
It’s like a dream.
Let the choir sing!

Just like a prayer,
Your voice can take me there.
Just like a muse to me,
You are a mystery.
Just like a dream,
You are not what you seem.
Just like a prayer, no choice;
Your voice can take me there.

a classic

“Like a Prayer” is a song from Madonna’s fourth studio album of the same name. Sire Records released it as the album's lead single on March 3, 1989. Written and produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard, the track denoted a more artistic and personal approach to songwriting for Madonna, who believed that she needed to cater more to her adult audience. The song is about a passionate young girl in love with God, who becomes the only male figure in her life.
