The Story Behind: Madonna - Like a Prayer, Ep 25

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. Madonna is already a hitmaker as she enters the studio to make her 4th album "Like a Prayer", but she's looking to expand her musical scope and win true artistic credentials for the first time. The boys discuss her collaboration with Prince, the use of modes in hit singles, and how a series of well-produced music videos shaped our perception of these songs.
