It seems every pop diva has one extremely bubbly pop song. I love this song. It's so happy.

I like this MUCH more than "True Blue" which was pretty bubbly as well.

This is one of those songs where you forget how great it is till you listen to it again.

They never felt this way I bet"

One of the best songs of the summer of 1989.

This song was actually played on Z95 for a few weeks around the time "Like A Prayer" was number one on the charts (April, 1989). Several of her songs made their playlist (including "Dear Jesse", which got to the mid-chart point). This song came back to their playlist (and got a lot higher than #30!) around late summer.
I thought the song was pretty good and was glad that it was number one for a week on R&R. Not on Billboard, however; Janet Jackson beat her to the #1 position with what I thought was the worst song of all time back then (until I heard crap like "I Love You Always Forever" and "Lean Back").

It's as perfect pop as a track can get. Not many Madonna songs are this bubbly (True Blue would be another). With the video, interesting thig is it can be interpreted as a tale of love for one's child (even stronger than a romantic bind- though a few of the lyrics contrast that a bit). And as light-hearted as the song is, of course she had to delve into the culture pool and do something for the video (twisting gender roles around).  |

I love this song! I put in my "Immaculate Collection" CD in the other day and jammed to this song when it came on. Old school Madonna is absolutely amazing.

Good tune. I like the album version and the "Immaculate Collection" version but not so much the radio edit.

Such a great, addictive, feel good song. I remember having the cassette single when it came out and seeing the video all over MTV.

I love this! It's so bubbly and delightful to listen to. I prefer the album version to TIC version because I love the last minute of the song.

It has held up incredibly over time, IMO. |

Cupid please take your aim at me...I've fallen in love with this like I never have before. An earnestly uplifting track that suits the summer like no other Madonna single. Lest I neglect a mention of the stunning video? the black-and-white-on-blue shading is still as luminous as it was 20(!) years ago.

Janet Jackson's Miss You Much kept Cherish from hitting #1 on the Hot 100.

I found this song to be extremely repetitive and overplayed at the time. It's way down on the list for me.

I always thought of this song as sort of an improved version of "True Blue". It's definitely one of my favorite Madonna songs.
