| I don't care what the song is about, I just feel that Madonna was going through one of her many chameleon stages and she was struggling to come to terms with the power of media, so she turned to religion. It is a good piece. | |

| This is so pathetic... those who think this song is about a blow job are so dumb. I mean is that the best thing your puny minds could come up with? geez talk about stupidity. Yes i can see why people think this song is about a blow job; two simple lines that backs up those of you with perverted minds... but what about the rest of the song? you just can't ignore it. This song is about a religious experience she had in which she felt free and her faith grew dramatically in her life from that point on. Anyway great song by Madonna. Anticipating any morons; i'm not religious at all. | |

| I agree, I've always thought this song was about a blowjob. The music video is completely just to throw people off. | |

| I think this song is about losing control, being free, almost a "religous experiance", perhaps its about one person, who is very powerful? | |
