Polling the 1992 version, the one with Kim Basinger (and, apparently, Ozzy Osbourne). Still a banger, it reached #4 in the UK, but doesn't appear to have charted in the US.
According to [url-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shake_Your_Head]Wiki[/url]: "A pre-fame Madonna had auditioned for the [original 1983 version] vocal but was not used on the final release"

Vote for whatever takes your fancy out of all these things they claim you can't do. Even though, some of them, it's just about possible you can.
