This rare 7" vinyl record features the original recording of the song "Open Your Heart" by Europe, released in 1984 under the Epic Records label. Taken from the 1984 album Wings of Tomorrow, this version has different lyrics and features lead guitarist John Norum (Dokken, UFO) and drummer Tony Reno (Niemistö) later in Y and Geisha along with original members John Levén and Joey Tempest.
Made in Holland but only released in Sweden at the time, international versions feature the 1988 re-recording.
