Description:

At the time of its release in 1989, Madonna’s song “Like a Prayer” was an instant hit, becoming her seventh number one single on the Billboard Hot 100.  However, not everyone embraced the song and its accompanying music video with open arms and welcoming ears.  The image on this Like a Prayer t-shirt reflects the song’s religious elements, which when translated to the music video were condemned by the Vatican and a number of family and religious groups.  Influenced by Madonna’s Catholic upbringing, the music video showed crosses burning, a stigmata and a dream in which her character is making love to a saint.  The controversy only bolstered Madonna’s popularity and cemented the song as not only one of Madonna’s best, but one of the greatest of all time.  Express your devotion with this Like a Prayer shirt that displays an image of the singer showing off her “religious” side.
