Track B1 was not included on the original version of this album. It was added to the European reissue and its presence is advertised by a round blue sticker on the sleeve.
In addition, some copies included a promotional one-sided color A4 insert for the "Madonna Live - The Virgin Tour" that had just been released on VHS and Beta.
Another feature that distinguishes this reissue from the original version is that the generic Sire typeface is used on the label, whereas the previous versions used the custom "madonna" typeface used.
Issued with back sleeve printed upside down and custom inner sleeve with lyrics and credits.
