#MonsterListens: Like a Prayer by Madonna (1989)

Recommended Posts

Oh my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee
And I detest all my sins because of Thy just punishment
But most of all, because I have offended Thee, oh my God
Who art all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace
To confess my sins, to do penance, to amend my life,
And to avoid the temptations of evil.

A DISCLAIMER.

Before I post my verdict, I want to make it known that I absolutely hate assigning number values to songs. kesha4 I thought I'd give it a try here tonight and I miserably failed after realizing I have no sense of gauging my scale. fall6 So, disregard my ratings and focus.m4a on my final review! sass1ny1

#MONSTER'SVERDICT

Coming into the album knowing Like a Prayer and Express Yourself, I had high standards for the album. After getting a couple songs in, I definitely did not picture the album to sound like it did, but I was taken a back by how good it was for me not expecting what I heard. The ballads, as Aretha Franklin would say ( moo1 ): beautiful ballads, gorgeous ballads. oprah2 Seriously though I never thought of Madonna as a ballads artist, but now I have seen the light. oprah2

 

Anyways to update my album ranking:

Like a Prayer > True Blue >> Madonna > Like a Virgin

 

Until next listening party which will start much earlier for better attendance! sass1

Erotica's and Bedtime Stories' ballads are pretty good as well but Ray of Light's ballads are the best!

Some ballad gems are scattered throughout the 2000s as well.

I don't think I'll be free for any listening threads until Friday night, but I'm looking forward to Erotica!

Thanks for hosting this thread!
