Maybe He'll Know


"Maybe He'll Know" is a song by American singer Cyndi Lauper from her 1986 album, True [Colors (Cyndi Lauper album)|True Colors]. It served as the fifth and final single of the album, released only in Europe in 1987. It is a remake of a song that Lauper recorded with her former band, Blue Angel. It appeared on their 1980 self-titled album The two versions are slightly different lyrically in a few lines. Billy Joel joins Lauper in 'doo wop' style back-up vocal duties.
The Blue Angel version of the song appears in the 1999 film 200 Cigarettes after a quarter when Kate Hudson's character is in the restaurant's restroom composing herself. A remix of "Maybe He'll Know"—presumably created with the intention of single release in the U.S.—surfaced as the B-side to Lauper's "I Drove All Night".
The single received radio adds in France in September 1987.
