An anthem , her signature song (arguably).

Not in my personal top 20 , maybe because its so popular outside the fanbase.

I wanted this to be the closing song to the Celebration tour.

It is her best single for me, its one of those iconic songs and i think i enjoy it more the older it gets.
I dont ever link like a prayer and Kylies Hand on your heart together in that they were both charting at the same time as hand on your heart was 35 years old last week both great songs in such different ways.
I miss the days of having songs like these in the charts, it was a great time to be a fan of the charts.

I'd say it is her signature song all things considered! She changed the game with this one clap.gif

This! It made such an impact culturally and has a wide general appeal too. There's quite a handful of songs I prefer so it probably ranks to the lower end of my Top 10, but it is one of her best. Rousing, uplifting, uniting - a true anthem.

Of the many live performances Madonna's done for 'Like a Prayer', I think the mash-up with 'Feels Like Home' is my favourite:

It’s her best song, I’ve never even vaguely tired of it. I didn’t understand at the time but in retrospect I love the video and the calling out of racism

Just worked out 'Like a Prayer' has about 1.32m chart sales, about 900k of that being downloads and streams! ohmy.gif
