Madonna contibuted four songs to the soundtrack, continuing her work with Patrick Leonard and Stephen Bray (he also composed the music to the motion picture). Unlike the movie, the Who's That Girl soundtrack became an instant international smash hit, with the title track peaking at number one in the United States, UK, Puerto Rico, among others. The album's second single, "Causing a Commotion," became another top five hit (peaking at #2 in the US). The third song released from the album was the minor hit "The Look of Love" which was release outside of North America and charted in the Top 10 in the UK.

Although Who's That Girl is generally regarded as a Madonna album, as she was the main performer, the soundtrack also features five other music acts, therefore the album is not an official part of Madonna's discography. In fact, Duncan Faure's "24 Hours" and Michael Davidson's "Turn It Up" were also released as singles. Madonna later performed "Who's That Girl", "Causing A Commotion" and "The Look Of Love" on her 1987 Who's That Girl Tour. After Madonnas 1985 The Virgin Tour, which took her to the biggest cities in North America, the Whos That Girl World Tour 1987 was the performers first world tour, which had her visiting cities in Japan, North America, and Europe. ...

Who's That Girl (1987) (1191 words)
Who’s That Girl fuels the fire for those who think she lacked any talent as a thespian, and it turns into a painful viewing experience.
Who’s That Girl appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 1.85:1 on this single-sided, single-layered DVD; the image has been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.
Given its era, I found this to be a “B-“ soundtrack, largely because it earned points through its solid soundfield.
