Like a Prayer
A song recorded by American singer Madonna for her 4th album of the same name. Sire Records released it as the album's lead single on Mar 3, 1989. Written & produced by Madonna & Patrick Leonard, the track heralded an artistic & personal approach to songwriting for Madonna, who believed that she needed to cater more to her adult audience. Thematically the song speaks about a passionate young girl in love with God, who becomes the only male figure in her life. "Like a Prayer" is a pop rock song & incorporates gospel music. It features background vocals from a choir & also a rock guitar. The lyrics contain liturgical words, but they have dual meanings of sexual innuendo & religion. "Like a Prayer" was acclaimed by critics & was also a commercial success. It was Madonna's 7th #1 single on the USA Billboard Hot 100 & topped the singles charts in many other countries, including Australia, Canada, Italy, Spain, New Zealand & the UK. The song went on to sell over 5 million copies worldwide & is one of the best-selling singles worldwide. Rolling Stone listed "Like a Prayer" among “The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time”.
Act of Contrition
A song recorded by American singer Madonna for her 4th album “Like A Prayer”. It features Madonna reciting the Catholic prayer Act of Contrition, then the vocals deteriorate into a monologue in which Madonna grows obstreperous over being denied a restaurant reservation.
