Did You Know?
Madonna wrote this with Gardner Cole and Peter Rafelson. The song was produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard. Although a huge hit in the US, Madonna could only reach #16 in Australia with "Open Your Heart," breaking a run of nine consecutive Top 10 singles.
Cole and Rafelson wrote this for Cyndi Lauper, but she never got to hear the demo. Madonna recorded it, altering some lyrics and adding a bassline which made it more of a dance track.
A Spanish version of the song titled "Abre Tu Corazón" was recorded by Venezuelan rock singer Melissa, who released it in March 1986 on her Melissa III album, three months ahead of Madonna's release.
