[
Madonna: Like a Prayer (1989)] We wanted to take certain things that are a given or a convention and say, why couldn't it be this? Why couldn't Jesus be black? Why can't sexual ecstasy be equated with religious ecstasy? Is it wrong to enjoy sex? Is it wrong to enjoy prayer, for that matter? Why does it have to be a dull or confining thing? I knew there was going to be some controversy but I wasn't prepared for how much. It was fun.
