Madonna - Like A Prayer

[RemyxedMagic]

A more beautiful voice than Lady Gaga...

[jannae16]

if i could like this song twice i would...

[milijayxoxo]

i love this song because of my older sister.... still know the lyrics omg!!! i feel old.

[MegasaurusRex01]

I feel that if she didn't put the burning crosses, this wouldn't have been such a scandal. I love this song and the video.

[MussyBear21]

scandalous and sickning!

Now here is an artist with a real message.. Not the same can be said for pop divas now days.

[stsaylor29]

i know the video was controversial, but so is everything else. The problem is... I don't think she was portraying a black man as Jesus but a Saint instead.... Jesus was perfect! Mrs. chiccone is still a beautiful lady.

[aaronpourazar]

1989 this song was banned from being played on allot of southern Radio Stations

[redsoxfan3444]

I'm watching in WHO GIVES A FUCK!!!!!!

[UltraPinkaholic]

by the way madonna looks gorgeous

[UltraPinkaholic]

i love this video the melody the lyrics the story it tells just everything!

[HolliRos]

Y los Latinos??

[chaneshristian1]

Madonna 's always a great singer but i'm digging the choir

[keldopedrolima]

Love it!!!!!Just to remind all of you,who actually like to say stupid thing in all youtube videos,this song isnt about religion or color....It's about having faith in your heart and somehow believing there is something powerful above us....That's all.

[eeniemeaniee]

@assoonasyoulike First of all, why did you put *** and then put the actual word? You're contradicting yourself. Oh and Jesus wasn't black, but get this - he wasn't white either! he was born in israel! do you really think someone living there would be white? And as for check catholic scripture - I have, I'm catholic. And last time i checked,the bible said forgive others. So saying burn in hell is stupid. Also, catholics believe in purgatory. Not everyone goes to hell. Go watch another video idiot

[LaLuna0]

That's the real Madonna.

[roosevelthighschool]

Was this song in the news at all? I don't remember if the news had anything on this song.

[FockdAnimations]

@assoonasyoulike Catholic is awesome,you're right. Killing thousands of people for thousand of stupid reasons and saying gay is wrong. They totally rock.

[thelonechipmunk]

@FockdAnimations woah buddy, not every catholic believes in the same things. Don't be so quick to judge and offend people who aren't involved in the stupidity of their own religion.

[HolliRos]

@thelonechipmunk

[HolliRos]

@HolliRos I agree with you. I'm Catholic and I love the message in this video. Really, it is just Madonna expressing Madonna and that's that. However, you said "stupidity in their own religion." Well, think about that phrase. I do believe you have the right to express, but respect it is your job. I don't always agree with the Catholic Church and will abide by MY rules, but I respect them.

[nickolasflamel]

@assoonasyoulike how can u say how god looking, if i now first of yours believers was jews and in old testament is that god has no face and no name, and for second god made gays and than he said that it's wrong, just think than u said something similar(sorry for my english, i'am from ČR

[Irenices]

@assoonasyoulike Nah, Jesus was black.

[trannywarrior]

Now THAT'S a music video

[tpbradley33]

4:17.....she needs a bigger dress...thts just awk....

[cicconefortin]

I think this song is perfect the way was made XD

[fuzballstud]

Y'all know this song is about giving head right??? Just listen to the chorus

[roosevelthighschool]

I can only imagine the controversy that stemmed from this video. I bet people didn't think about that when this song first dropped in 1989.

[Zorsha]

@roosevelthighschool it was hugely controversial..unfortunately people did not get the message -the video was about racism - but they saw it as Madonna mocking the church. I look at this video now, and it's soo tame compared to back then.

[roosevelthighschool]

@Zorsha How could the video be about racism? I don't hear it in the lyrics.

[Zorsha]

@roosevelthighschool it's not in the lyrics..its in the VIDEO - the abstract images of burning crosses (this is what the KKk did when they lynched a black man), a black man being framed for a crime commited by a white man..a black jesus like figure, the sorrow and redemption.

[xXSpirit4MusicXx]

CHILDHOOD MEMORIES :)))))))

[chihuahua1o1]

this is agreat song ill give her that but why the fuck burn a cross i dount care what religion madonna is but she better respect the catholic church and the cross

[andressinification]

@chihuahua1o1 Think more in racism than religion...black saint, burning crosses....KKK???

[Zorsha]

@andressinification exactly!

[Zorsha]

@chihuahua1o1 the burning crosses represent racism..its what the kkk used to do when they lynched black people. and screw the catholic church, because THEY do not respect anyone who doesn't follow their views.

[dasetman]

@chihuahua1o1 Or what.

[Miguelizk00l]

@ElsHouse Whatever dude!

[renanyt]

The best EVER.

[celticsfan7577]

@broomybroomybroomy you mean fuck religeion.

[42Johney]

Madonna has the most amazing profile.

[sleepoptimistic]

holy shizzle this was WAY ahead of (its) time!

i bet she took alot of shit for this video..thank god everyone isnt a retard..

[burrouge]

@sleepoptimistic she still gets shit for this video..but i agree with you

[fdhlytr67510]

@sleepoptimistic

yes she took ALOT of shit for this back in the day. But she survived it all.

[msuhhleesahh]

madonna likes black people!

[ceijae]

@msuhhleesahh hmmmm, great observation! ....by the way, she likes all races, she taught me to da same! *wink!!

[b64908]

esta cancion me faaaaaaaaaasina

[iloveGod1105]

thumbs up if the superbowl sent u here!

[bluemoonshinya]

Great vid !

[bluemoonshinya]

Beautiful !

Madonna rocks !

[mike8055]

Madonna would always use controversy in her music to grab the media's attention.

[teleportx]

Holy shit! That's the guy from "Cool Runnings"!

[DonQwantsyou]

Madoona SUCK DOGDICK!

[Miguelizk00l]

and lets not forget the new single, gimmie all your love.

[Miguelizk00l]

this song relly bringa a tear to my eye for some reason. i dont care what people say. i am a man, i am 20 years old, and yes, i did hear this song for the fist time at the Super Bowl. im still getting to know her music. my favorite songs by her are las isla bonita, hung up, and sorry.

[ElsHouse]

@Miguelizk00l fag

[M67125]

Wow, this video brings back great memories of Madonna, this is definitely one of her best songs.

[TheValgal2000]

her son goes to my school hes rlly nice :)

[MichaelHTillman]

I don't remember any of this about the stabbing... was the a retcon?

[MichaelHTillman]

@MichaelHTillman Oh jeez... I guess not... weird... I really don't remember that... I think they had a much shorter version in rotation.

[skyedoggythelimit]

Stick with blond looks better. :)

[beckstergirl100]

This is controversial?

[SecretService80]

@beckstergirl100 Probably the KKK-style burning crosses. Intentional or not.

[sweetheart2109]

favorite song of Madonna

[happydays175]

Think it gives a powerful message. Sad the pope doesn't like Madonna. Should pray for her instead.

[sylvia1256]

@happydays175 madonna worships devil ! shes illuminati ! look it up then watch what your saying

[madmandonna1]

@sylvia1256 seriously if worshiping the devil and going to hell means I'll avoid crazy people (like yourself) sign me the fuck up!

Why does everyone go on about the Illuminati!?

[Zorsha]

@happydays175 the pope doesnt like anyone who isn't a catholic sheep. fuck the pope - he is not god.

[dioioego]

The Pope issued a statement through the Vatican banning Madonna from Italy as a consequence of this video, I don't think kids have any idea how much controversy Madonna used to cause. This is the most controversial ever in the history of pop music.

[robertuk2006]

@dioioego The Pope does not have the power to ban anyone from Italy. He only has the power to ban people from Vatican City.

[RebelConserve]

COOOOLLLL RUNNNINGGGSSSS!

[mdelcamp1]

NFL Properties cannot possibly own the Madonna "Like a Prayer" song music video I saved as a Favorite. It was made two (2) years ago. Thumbnail 5:38

Madonna - Like A Prayer © 2006 WMG Like A Prayer 2 years ago madonna

[AnARTIST719]

3:59 This is where they got Elaine's dance from Seinfeld!

[Loudmouf84]

Garbage

[Loudmouf84]

@GTAIVarcadegamer Not at all FOOL

[TheChill4u]

Classic One From Madonna, Really Beautiful This Video!!! :-)

[splinter360]

Mum made me grow up to madona (The immaculate collection). Pretty much helped mold my musical taste

[philpizzoisking]

Only madonna can get a black guy out of jail by saying "He didnt do it"

[ItalianWoman26]

REDUCTIVE 

[Omarsh1692]

@ItalianWoman26 Troll This Way :D ....

[100Icecub]

real life 

[stef75paris]

I dedicace this song has whitney Houston

[tinat30135]

I'm not a prude by any means....but the video created a certain mood of "praying to a saint to help make a decision on how to help out the innocent guy", and then the guy kissed her. It ruined it for me.

[dioioego]

@tinat30135 the whole video is about 'religious ecstasy'. The guy who's kissing Madonna is on top of her...and it's the black Jesus. She did it to be controversial.

[tinat30135]

@dioioego Well.....she succeeded....it's certainly controversial with me.

[tinat30135]

I was enjoying this video, until she starting dancing that ridiculous dance among the choir....so out of place. Then when the guy kissed her on the lips I thought, "you've ruined it, Madonna".

[chickischeca]

This one is my favorite!!!!!

[hannahthegreat1002]

[croxzy1]

@Trilluminate u mean jesus

[Sorrytodisappointyou]

@croxzy1 It's not Jesus, it's a saint.

[shshshaady]

This video is total blasphemy. Burning the cross? Dancing with a tank top showing her cleavage in church? I mean come on, this is straight perverting the true Christian religion.

[nakya011]

@shshshaady u are absolutely correct!!!!!

[broomybroomybroomy]

@shshshaady Good. Fuck Christianity.

[bryannalavis]

[TheDonolys]

Everyone went nuts at this back in the day, racism has gone down significantly in the western world, just shows that boundaries need to be pushed. Well done Madonna.

[49FunnyBunny]
