Johnny lovely 2: Everyone I talk too knows the 70's and 80's were the last creative generation musically and film wise. I don't know who you're talkin too but it ain't the majority.
It always makes me laugh when people claim Cyndi was or is on drugs! Is it possible that there r people on this planet that r just quirky & unusual WITHOUT drugs? On this entire planet, it's not possible to find a few? Maybe even Cyndi?? Saying that she can't b this way wout drugs is also saying the following: There's not a black person on the planet that is a good rocker. There's not a white person with soul. There's not a single asian that can drive. Really people? It's a big world. Ignorant.
Yes, shes obviously geeked out, I'd say meth. Yes, she only had to do one song, but she gave a part of herself away here. She pushed all of her emotion out, not just her voice -- her "strange" dancing is included -- an example of why everyone should stop being distracted by the "abnormal". The stimulus behind her behavior is very human and in all of us. If you don't get emotional watching this your missing something.
I drank a case of Dos Equis once and danced liked that for hours. I pissed all over my neighbors rose bushes too. I guess I'm the most interesting man in the world.........lol
@SarahStorm no this song was compleatly written by prince. he has written songs for so many people. this was actually a cover though. shes pretty good at it but prince when prince played his version on his shows it was just something else
@boyblue922 Sorry, blue, but everybody I know that knows this song thinks of it as a Prince song first. It was so jarring to hear it on an R&B album...PEACE.
Hm, okay, he's going with another guy...then she had "She Bop"-about masturbation (I hope he will understand...)...and then "He's so unusual" Helen Kane's 1929 remake about her man being gay and not wanting to touch her. I guess Cyndi was having troubles, lol.
@NorthernFella This is pointed out all the time, but she also says "Oh girl, when you were mine"! "Another guy" could refer to a new one since the last, not the same gender. She really should have altered the lyrics lol
@mrsoundwave yes I know! The poit is is that you heteros find it so to believe that someone would not chnage the lyrics so its about a woman whos boyfriend is seeing another man! News flash this happens alot more than you care to admit
What a shame today's under 30's will have NO legacy of incredible LIVE music, instant classic songs and original and phenomenal performers like Cyndi Lauper who rocked the entire world and still kick ass to this day the way the artists of the past did and do.
But I guess they'll always have Britney's TOTALLY AMAAAZING "comeback" performance on X Factor.
She looks like she's suffering from severe neurological tremors!!! (not to be disrespectful to those who do!)
