Madonna Announces “Like A Prayer (The Silver Collection)” to Celebrate the Album's 35th Anniversary
Madonna is set to celebrate the 35th anniversary of her landmark album, LIKE A PRAYER, with a special reissue this summer. Scheduled for release on September 6, 2024, this edition will be pressed on opaque silver vinyl, the second release in the Silver Collection—a series of limited-edition vinyl reissues honoring 40 years of Madonna's illustrious career. The Silver Collection began last year with True Blue and will continue to feature more of Madonna’s albums in the coming months.
First released on March 21, 1989, LIKE A PRAYER quickly became a beloved classic, garnering acclaim from both critics and fans. The album, which marked Madonna’s fourth studio release, is known for its deeply personal content. The title track not only became her seventh No. 1 hit but was also recently certified double platinum by the RIAA. Other hits from the album, such as "Express Yourself" and "Cherish," both peaked at No. 2 on the charts. The album was Madonna’s third consecutive No. 1 on the Billboard 200, where it stayed for six weeks, her longest run at the top. Internationally, LIKE A PRAYER sold 15 million copies and remains a fan favorite.
