Why the hell did he make that song? It's CRAP!

time goes by so slowly for those who wait
and those who run seem to have all the fuuuuunnnnn....

I enjoy it.

I like it.

I don't LOVE this song. But the memory of being so damn excited back then to find it when I bought Like a Prayer (I had no clue it was supposed to be on there) is enough for it to garner a special spot in my fuzzy wuzzy wittle heart.

I hated it when I bought Like A Prayer because I hated Prince. Then I saw the light, started loving Prince but still thought Love Song was a bit pooh.

me too,



- and I believe Liza Minnelli & Pet Shop Boys likes the song too:

"Loosing My Mind" with almost the same chorus...:





that chorus:

"You said you loved me, or were you just being kind, or am I loosing my mind"...


this always reminds me of the Prince/ Madonna song.

a wasted opportunity. Their voices sounded awesome together. If Prince got off his ass and really tried to collaborate, this would have been a classic.

I think it's a very good song. -Being atypical in chord progression and arrangement, combined with sweet, almost innocently delivered lyrics this is a quirky classic in my ears.

I think it's great. A little cheesy, but generally a solid track.

Love it.

The whole Like A Prayer album sounds like a really good Prince-protogee album.

It's very original.

co-sign

what i love the most about it is how in some parts it's hard to tell if
it's madonna or prince screaming/sighing/moaning, lol.

love the atmosphere of the song. it sounds kind of lovesexy/batman era,
but is nicely quirked up by madonna's input.

always considered this to be a solid track. just weird enough to keep
you going back to it.

Dig it

Definitely agree with all that. Love the drum sounds and strange rhythm, too, and LOVE LOVE LOVE Prince's backing vocals.

Terrible song

it's a good song and sounds great for being recorded in two separate cities.

I absolutely LOVE the song. I remember buying the "Like a prayer" album. I had no idea they did a song together, when I heard him singing on the track I was blown away!!!

I felt the same way!! I was like, WOW. is that Prince???

nurseV said:

Agreed! Madonna and Prince don't even sound good together on that track.

I thought it was horrendous and still do.

I've never heard it

I love Madonna. I love Prince's music. But this song has no reason to exist at all. Fucking terrible!

100% crap. One of the most depressing moment in Prince career.

I've never heard this song. Maybe Someday.

I like the way this song concludes,with Madonna sounding all pissed off as she sings...

Don't try to tell me what your enemies taught you!
I'm gone,but I just want you to know....
that this is not the love song that I want to sing.

(haunting synthesizer)


I love it

YES IVE HEARD IT.. l wouldnt say its a good one,,,,,

I knew about this song before the album was released.In early 1989,I was reading all the articles about Madonna's upcoming album,and the Prince collaboration was mentioned.

"Love Song" is a good song,but it's actually one of the weakest songs on the album.The other tracks are much stronger.

I was disappointed at the time - wanting a big hit single, but I love it now. Lots of space in it and a cool vocal from M
