Like A Prayer - Madonna

Los que vivimos este momento aún recordamos la polémica que se montó cuando la diva americana mostró en uno de sus vídeos a un santo de origen afroamericano que termina cobrando vida. Menudo cristo montó (lo siento).

La artista llamada Madonna, además de tener buen ojo para elegir a sus colaboradores también supo crear algunas de las polémicas más llamativas de los 80 y 90, ya fuera con las letras de sus canciones o con asuntos extramusicales: Vogue que era un baile que se practicaba en algunos garitos de ambiente en Nueva York y lo incorporó a su vídeo; el famoso corpiño diseñado por Jean Paul Gaultier; el libro Sex en el que se mostraba sexo explícito; los besos con Britney Spears y Christina Aguilera...

En este caso se argumentó que la representación era la de una obra de teatro que se mostraba en el vídeo, no era un santo real, así que tocaron las narices pero no tanto a la parte más conservadora de la población norteamericana. 

Hoy en día no creo que se armara ningún revuelo con un vídeo así. Lo digo para los que dicen que antes había más libertad. 

Espero que os guste 


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 wanna 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

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

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

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

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

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

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

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

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
Your voice can take me there
Like a prayer

Just like a prayer
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
