about

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Open Your Heart" was written & originally performed in 1985 by M.L. Ciccone

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I was 12 I was completely into MTV and used to tape videoclips on VHS-tapes.
Only once I watched this clip with this little boy who wants to see his favourite singer dancing in a peep show theatre.
Of course he is not allowed to enter as it's "for adults only", but after the show the singer escapes with him
and happily they dance away into the night...
twenty years later I rediscovered it and thought it would be a funny joke to play a ukulele version of this 80s pop song.
I really liked the result, more than I expected so I put it on the album...
I hope you enjoy my version as much as I did! ;-)

...by the way, I never watched the videoclip a second time, but probably you may find it on youtube these days.
the singer became more famous with other songs later.

this song was available for download for one week only in 2012.

So now - take your chance again.
