On this last album of wonderful 80s (which as already works above contains a lot of hits) presents an entirely new Madonna. For the first time not a typical dance sound as on the previous albums ahead, because this time it's more about looking statements and partial videos that go deeper. Madonnas by this time most personal album. She's matured from the small perky disco girl to adult female approach. But for the first time Madonna also provides coarser scandals, such as the video for "Like a prayer" or "Express yourself". Over the subsequent period it was the term "scandal noodle" los not as fast. Nevertheless, it can not be denied that her with "Like A Prayer" (one of my favorite songs on this album), a masterpiece succeeded already has in the meantime to a hymn. Unfortunately this former # 1 hit has since been so often and in such bad gecovert that can be regarded only as a pure mockery it actually. It's just not feasible to connect with this original to come, for better `s no longer time. There were other huge hits: "Express yourself" from which one can learn a lot of self-consciousness, and the Madonna to a sex diva made, "Cherish" to dream suitable song, but the also appreciation for a good love associated with friendship expressed brings (also one of my favorite songs on the album), "Dear Jessie" (my favorite song from this album) just beautiful and original that also Madonna's maternal side brings to -the desire for children was already present at Madonna at this time, only fit he was not yet in their schedule, initially had the career still Vorrang-, "Keep It Together" in the Madonna remembers how important the love and support of family life (also one of my favorite songs from here, but I like it the radio version of this number much better), and finally the beautiful, but sad ballad "Oh Father" (which is also one of my favorites). Also "Til Death Do Us Part" I like very much. Not to mention, the beautiful ballad "Spanish Eyes" and "Promise To Try". Like them both very much. Even the conclusion of the album "Act of Contrition" I find not bad. Solely "Love Song", a duet with Prince has been very weak and I can actually less delight. But what is a single not so successful song ever, compared to nine really good numbers, six of which became hits? I think in light of this fact can be that one misstep probably forgive like. "Like a prayer" has again taken a completely new direction. It tears me not quite so with as Madonna's previous albums, but nevertheless it is one of my favorite works of her.
