"Say a Prayer" was the first single from dance-pop vocalist Taylor Dayne's Greatest Hits compilation album.
Taylor did not record any new tracks for her Greatest Hits release. Arista instead released as the first single a remixed version of a track from Soul Dancing.
The song was a hit in the club scenes, peaking at No. 5 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. It peaked at #58 on the UK Singles Chart.
The following are the different remixes included on the U.S. release:
Radric Davis (born February 2, 1980), better known by his stage name Gucci Mane, is an American rapper. He debuted in 2005 with Trap House and followed with albums such as Hard to Kill in 2006, Trap-A-Thon and Back to the Trap House in 2007. In 2009, his second studio album The State vs. Radric Davis was released, and The Appeal: Georgia's Most Wanted was released in 2010, and is his highest charting album so far. Gucci Mane has released many other mixtapes and independent albums as well.
While serving a six-month jail term for assault in late 2005, Davis was charged with murder, though the charges were later dropped due to a lack of evidence. In 2009, he served a year-long county jail sentence for violating probation for his 2005 aggravated assault conviction.
Davis was born in Birmingham, Alabama, and later moved with his single mother to Atlanta. He enjoyed writing poetry as a child, and began rapping at age 14.
In 2005, Davis released his independent debut album entitled Trap House, which featured the successful single "Icy" with Young Jeezy. Disputes over the rights to this single caused a rift between the two artists. Hard to Kill followed in 2006. Hard To Kill included the hit single "Freaky Gurl". The song peaked at number 12 on the Hot Rap Tracks, number 19 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, and at number 62 on the Hot 100.
I still remember the nights
When there was darkness in my life
But then You came
Something deep inside me changed
And now I pray
I started to trust without fear
Knowing You'd hold me through the tears
Because of You
I've learned there's nothing love can't do
So hear me pray
Just a little help is all we need
Just a little light we can see
Just a little faith leads the way
For everyone who's falling in love
For every child that needs a touch
For all of the hopes and dreams that we share
And for the hearts that cry tonight, I'll say a prayer
How can one voice be heard?
I've got to tell the whole world
How much You care
'Cause no one has to walk alone
So hear me pray
Just a little help is all we need
Just a little light we can see
Just a little faith leads the way
For everyone who's falling in love
For every child that needs a touch
For all of the hopes and dreams that we share
And for the hearts that cry tonight, I'll say a prayer
I'll close my eyes
While I'm down on my knees
It gives me courage to believe
So I'll keep on believing, I'll keep on believing
For everyone who's falling in love
For every child that needs a touch
For all of the hopes and dreams that we share
And for the hearts that cry tonight
For everyone who's falling in love
For every child that needs a touch
For all of the hopes and dreams that we share
And for the hearts that cry tonight
For everyone who's falling in love
For every child that needs a touch
For all of the hopes and dreams that we share
And for the hearts that cry tonight, I'll say a prayer
I'll say a prayer
I'll say a prayer
