I could not wait to see this original clip when is 19, loved it.

HISTORICAL... Madonna was so ahead of her times, controversial, a true genius... there was always an underlining message of truth wether be good/ bad, positive/ negative in her music... *it was real, she was true to herself and her purpose ~ there will never be another like her the one, the only; MADONNA ❤️ (she said/ did wat others were afraid to say or do, no regrets 👍) *for certain an icon/ legend of her times, of which never got the recognition she so truly deserved... ❤️ MADONNA ❤️

Queen of pop Forever ✨

And then the whole world went nuts..

I remember the controversy. Madonna was already a star, but this made sure she was known in all corners of the world. The commercial implies that her then up coming video of the this song would be as innocent as a fairytale, involving Madonna revisiting her schooldays memories, dancing in the corridors of a school with children and celebrating Mass in a church. It couldn't be further from the truth. When the real video aired Pepsi company CEOs gasped for air, as the video portrayed a murder by a white man blamed on a black guy, Madonna making out with a black saint in a church, dancing in front of burning crosses and experiencing stigmata! The company officials run to cancel all the airings of their Madonna collaboration, since the catholic church was already threatening to remove all Pepsi vendor machines from their churches (or maybe from everywhere :P). But, of course, Madonna kept the 5 million dollars, she didn't really violate their contract :).

Thanks 4 uploading this!

Madonna omg cuando era demasiado hermosa

I loved that commercial, that was what really made her, i love that era, she has evolved but, not for the better.

Madonna is a provocateur on par with Marilyn Manson and the like. People often conflate the antics of pop stars today with the statements Madonna’s made throughout her career, particularly with her sexuality. But I’d argue those are Madonna’s duller feats. It’s her need to defy, challenge, and shock, that has constantly set her apart from even contemporary pop stars. Like A Prayer’s imagery is so controversial, even to this day! WAP is baby mush next to it. Look at the contents, she’s made such bold cultural statements.

There’s no comparison. At her peak Madonna was so famous she rivaled the President of the United States. I know that sounds ridiculous but it’s true. The 1980s were simply a different time.

Good though this was. The Religious video was far more powerful

1:00 goosebumps O_O

This song is still great.

1985 was madonnas year, but 1990 with the blond ambition tour made her an uber super star

go ahead...make a wish

I did not know that Madonna was also photographed for a Pepsi commercial, like Michael Jackson♥️👍

That would have made an awesome alternative video for the song too if they wouldve just aired this instead. I loved the original video too

Honestly whats wrong with this commercial, nothing, its beautiful and its so Madonna, I wish they would have put it on tv...its better then most commercials today.....💗

It was because Pepsi was afraid that (stupid) people would mistaken the commercial for the Like A Prayer video that got some groups panties in an uproar and they didn’t want to get to close to that fire. But, hey, Pepsi still sponsored her tour, Madonna got 5 million for a commercial that aired once, we got one of her best music videos and the world didn’t end to the chagrin of those groups.

I remember this well. I saw the commercial first and then later the video for #likeaprayer. In the commercial she had a completely different look; like #AnnaMagnani and that #Mystique lock of white hair, and in catsuit dancing with children. The video was completely different. Here she had all brown hair looking like Sophia Loren and wearing a slip, dancing in a field of burning crosses. I don't know how people confused the two.

The Family Research Council and some other evangelical groups along with the Catholic Church were threatening to boycott Pepsi because they felt they had a part in bankrolling/sponsoring Madonna, so this commercial had to go. Madonna kept the $5 Million though

I saw this ad before it was pulled, and found the move confounding. Regardless, the most memorable Pepsi commercials featured MJ 🤷‍♂️

Who ruined this with auto tune? The original song didn’t have it.

@@martianboy I don't think so. Here voice is clearly straightened out in lots of places, removing all vibrato. A wobbly VHS tape could never do that.

I don’t think this is really Madonna’s ‘brand’ or at least if it was she shed it quickly. It’s basically the idea of the ‘American Dream’… Dream big, work hard and have talent and you will make it. Her younger self is dreaming about being a star and her adult self is encouraging her to ‘make a wish’. I appreciate that she not only used classic symbols of ‘white America’… the diner, the cool kids in leather and muscle cars of the 50s, but also black culture with churches and gospel music, which is basically the roots of the song (and the history of rock music). This is kind of a nostalgia of an America that never really was. Her actual video showed the America that actually is… violence, racism, religious hypocrisy and police bias, and that’s why she was censored and criticized after it. America wasn’t ready to face the truth of what it really is.

This was pulled off air as pepsi PANICKED after seeing the LIKE A PRAYER VIDEO because they didnt want to be associated with upsetting the religious groups. And they didnt want ANYTHING to do with any BACKLASH she was possibly going to receive from the video. The BIG MISTAKE pepsi made was they EXPECTED Madonna to pay back the 5 million and she said NO ! LOL she laughed ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.

Who ran autotune/melodyne over the vocals and why? Autotune didnt exist back then. And it doesn't make it sound better. Irons out all personality. And it has introduced artifacts. Just dumb and unnecessary.

I imagine if this is the actual music video that year, Madonna could've been less controversial and won a Grammy or two.
