    People can disagree about these versions of Frozen and Like a Prayer, but I think that the most important thing is that Billboard recognized Madonna as the Icon she is, and made a living tribute to her, a living legend. Sometimes we don't appreciate the artists that we have until they're gone

When I saw her in 2012 in the Super Bowl it was like if Vogue, Like a Prayer or Music weren't old songs you know? She refresh her sound how many from the 80's or 90's are still up to date? almost anyone.

    This is so touching. Madonna might be the most successful female artist that ever was - but - to see a tribute to her, such a rare thing to see, reminds me that she remains UNDER-CELEBRATED. She’s a miracle of earth and a gift to us all. She’s an inspirational figure inspiring us all for decades to never stop evolving, trying to be ‘a better version of myself’ as the song goes.

    Lyrics:
    You only see what your eyes want to see
    How can life be what you want it to be
    You're frozen
    When your heart's not open
    You're so consumed with how much you get
    You waste your time with hate and regret
    You're broken
    When your heart's not open
    Mm, if I could melt your heart
    Mm, we'd never be apart
    Mm, give yourself to me
    Mm, you hold the key
    Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
    I hear you call my name
    And it feels like home
    When you call my name it's like a little prayer
    I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
    In the midnight hour I can feel your power
    Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
    I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing
    I have no choice, I hear your voice
    Feels like flying
    I close my eyes, Oh God I think I'm falling
    Out of the sky, I close my eyes
    Heaven help me
    When you call my name it's like a little prayer
    I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
    In the midnight hour I can feel your power
    Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
    When you call my name it's like a little prayer
    I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
    In the midnight hour I can feel your power
    Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
