"Who's
That Girl" is the lead single from the soundtrack of the 1987 screwball
comedy film of the same name, starring Madonna. The song continued hers
fascination with Latin pop, a genre she had previously explored on her
single "La Isla Bonita". It features instrumentation from drums, bass,
and trumpets, and has lyrics sung both in English and Spanish. While
shooting for the film, then called "Slammer", Madonna had requested
Patrick Leonard to develop a song that captured the nature of her
character; the producer worked on a demo and, afterwards, Madonna added
the lyrics and decided to rename the song, as well as the film, to
"Who's That Girl". The tune topped the charts in the United States,
United Kingdom, Canada, Italy, Belgium, Denmark, Portugal, Ireland, and
went to the runner-up slot in Germany, France, Spain, the Netherlands,
Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Greece, and New Zealand. |
