"Open Your Heart" is a song by American singer Madonna from her third studio album True Blue (1986).
The song was released as the album's fourth single in November 19, 1986 by Sire Records.
Looking for new songs for True Blue, Madonna accepted it. She rewrote the song and, along with Patrick Leonard, changed the composition to suit the dance-pop genre.
MTV had some reservations initially before airing the video, which was later resolved after a meeting with Warner Officials.
Originally a rock and roll song titled "Follow Your Heart", it was written for singer Cyndi Lauper by songwriters Gardner Cole and Peter Rafelson.
