Happy Birthday to Cyndi Lauper, who turns 62 today!
I was watching a bunch of 80s video over the weekend (because they’re the best) and one of them was Girls Just Want To Have Fun. I dread to think how many times I’ve watched that video (loads!). Anyway, I was curious as to how old Lauper was when she made that video so I looked her up & noticed that her birthday is today. I know I should post the video for The Goonies ‘R’ Good Enough (which is also awesome) but I have to go with Girls Just Want To Have Fun as it’s such an 80s classic and was one of my favorite videos as a kid.
And it sort of ties in with the movie review I’ll be posting later today! Sort of… Okay, not really.
Happy Birthday, Cyndi! Hope you’re having fun. 🙂

Cyndi Lauper: 62? Blimey Charley!
Cheers!
Ha! YES! Great post. I’m an 80s child! Will always be my favorite decade. 🙂 Yeah…. Cyndi is making me feel old!
I LOVE her. It’s got to be Time After Time for me.
I love her too! And that’s also a great song… 🙂
62! Eegads. I feel older and older every day.She had a great voice, didn’t she?
I know. 😦 Made me feel old! Yes – she had (and still has, I suppose?) a great voice. 🙂
Time after Time is a classic! I saw her recently on the Graham Norton Show.
Yes it is! Great song. 🙂 How did she look? Not seen her in ages!
I remember her first band Blue Angel. Her voice was so powerful everyone thought she’d throw it out if she wasn’t careful.
As far as the video goes.. How can you not have fun with the combo of Cyndi and the late Captain Lou Albano?
Yep – great voice. 🙂 And… I didn’t watch wrestling but loved people like Lou Albano because of this video & that Hulk Hogan cartoon at the time. Lol 🙂
Aw, happy birthday Cyndi! I love her version of I Drove All Night 🙂
Me too. Cyndi is great! 🙂
Good enough for me.
Me too! Hey – which of the two Coreys did you prefer?
It was Feldman, but then I watched Puppet Master Vs. Demonic Toys, and now it’s Haim, because he’s dead.
Lol! I KNEW you’d say that… 😉
