At least she's still around and making music. There are so many artists from the 80s that just gave it all up.

Cyndi's new album is great. It's dance music, but not the typical mindless kind with the same beats and everything. It has a lot of melodies and hooks. It also has a lot more oomph/energy than her last two albums. I keep repeating the songs "Into the Nightlife" and "Echo". They are very cool and the choruses are super catchy.

That's right. Wendi Richter was the very tanned gum-chewing waitress at the beginning of that music video.

That's funny, Nora, because in college my roommate's girlfriend went to a Halloween party as Cyndi Lauper. He went as Billy Idol (whited-out hair, spiked wristbands), and I went as one of the Duran Duran guys (mousse in the hair, eyeliner).

She was the waitress, right? I haven't watched that one in a long time. I remember Cyndi's brother also made an appearance in that one.

I always liked Cindi Lauper. After the 80s,I lost track of her career,though. Being a wrestling fan,I was delighted by her connection to wrestling through Lou Albano and Wendi Richter. Wendi even guested in the video "She Bop" by Cindi.

I've probably said this before, but the first song I ever bough was 'Girls just wanna have fun' by Cyndi Lauper

Yep, Captain Lou Albano! He played Cyndi's dad in GJWTHF and She Bop. My mom met him many, many years ago before he became popular in the 80s. I wish wrestling characters were as fun now as they were then.

Shane, that's NOT original. ;-)

Anyways, I always liked Cyndi Lauper more, but it seems like her big time pop career fizzled out by the late 80s. Too bad, she seemed like a lot of fun and I enjoyed her style and her personally those that of Madonna.

That's right, Roddy Piper....I couldn't recall if it was him or Hulk Hogan? I think someone or other was in the Girls Just Wanna Have Fun video, weren't they?

I don't know why Cyndi faded from the scene. She had many good songs, and her voice has gotten better over the years. I have just about everything she's ever recorded, even from before She's So Unusual came out, and I like almost everything from all stages of her career. Like with the Monkees.

She was in a band that released an album in 1980, and she made a recording of Fleetwood Mac's "You Make Loving Fun". She sounded a lot like Christine McVie on...

She came onto the scene right behind Madonna, that's how I remember it.....both a little eccentric in dress, both setting fads in their style. And didn't Cyndi get involved in wrestling stuff???? She had some good tunes I agree, how come she didn't stay on top? Was She's So Unusual the only album she put out?

Yeah, Cyndi brings up 80s memories for me too. "Time After Time" is my favorite song by her. Oooh, a Cyndi Halloween costume--excellent!!

Goonies is one of my favorite movies!! Classic. "Good Enough" Videos

I love Cyndi's music. I haven't kept up with her recent stuff, but I loved her "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" song and "She Bop." She wore some of the neatest outfits as well.

Cyndi? She's so unusual!

Sure, I like her stuff. The 80's wouldn't have been the 80's without her. I can't honestly say that I've kept up too well with her current career, though. I did hear that she was starring on Broadway a while back...

Does anyone here like Cyndi? She is one of my favorites. I've been listening to her since I was a child, and I'm rarely ever disappointed with her work. Her new album is coming out at the end of May. It sounds like it is going to be very good. You can sample some of it here:

I'm really looking forward to this one. Her last two albums were mostly covers and I liked them, but they were...
