“Cherish” foi escrita e produzida pela própria Madonna em parceria com Patrick Leonard para o álbum *Like a Prayer*.
O videoclipe em preto‑e‑branco foi dirigido pelo fotógrafo Herb Ritts e lançado junto com o single em agosto de 1989.
A canção recebeu elogios por seu tom mais leve, contrastando com as temáticas religiosas e de sexualidade das faixas anteriores de *Like a Prayer*.
Nas paradas, “Cherish” chegou ao número dois na Billboard Hot 100 dos EUA e liderou o Cash Box Top 100, dando a Madonna o recorde de 16 singles consecutivos entre os cinco primeiros lugares.
O sucesso da música levou‑a ao topo da parada canadense e a posições dentro do top 10 em países como Austrália, Bélgica, Itália, Irlanda, Reino Unido e na lista combinada da Europa.
