What is interesting about Lucky Star is that while she is credited as sole writer she stated in a 2019 interview that she co-wrote it with Reggie Lucas

didn't she write songs with him (or another musician) and then they each took the writing credit for one whole song? Or was this another recording session?

Physical Attraction is credited to Reggie Lucas but we know Madonna co-wrote it.

Yes, that's it, I think they had a deal where she got the entire credit for one co-written song and he got the other one.

That was w/Steve Bray. They co-wrote Everybody and Ain’t No Big Deal together but split the credits.
