Momentum
This song has not appeared on a Rotation chart, so it has no score and no receipts. The rank history below is the ledger; a score is only published once the momentum run puts it on a chart.
Why it's here
The track features a full gospel choir led by Andraé Crouch, who insisted on scrutinizing the lyrics before agreeing to lend his singers' voices. [1] Guitar contributions on the song's introduction and remixed 12-inch versions came from Prince, who was personally asked by Madonna to play on the record. [2] Rolling Stone included the song among 'The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time'. [3]
In culture
Every place this record has lived. A solid chip states a fact and carries the citation that earns it; a dashed one is a connection somebody drew, and carries their name instead.
