Madonna Topp 50 #2 - Heaven help me

#2: "Like A Prayer"
(Like A Prayer, 1989, Madonna/Patrick Leonard)

Jag vill börja med att påpeka att det är oerhört jämnt mellan ettan och tvåan på denna lista.
Like A Prayer, denna pampiga klassiker, måste vara en av världens bästa poplåtar. Den har allt; bra melodi, fin text, en massa symbolik, underbar video, fantastiska remixar...

Det finns inte så mycket mer att tillägga, annat än älska!

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 Ill 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 Im 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 Ill 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 Ill take you 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

Just like a prayer, Ill take you there
Its like a dream to me...
