Do You Know Why These Songs Were Banned? Well, We Do…

Like A Prayer – Madonna

Madonna reveled in the controversy that her songs created. And “Like a Prayer” was one that people were having some trouble with, apparently. The American Family Association and The Vatican condemned the music video for the song because of its “blasphemous imagery.” The hoopla caused so much pressure that Pepsi ended up canceling an entire advertising campaign that featured this song in 1989. It went so far that the Pope even asked people to boycott Madonna’s concerts in 1990. Subsequently, Madonna has been banned in Egypt, and her music faces lots of restrictions in Russia.
