Cyndi Lauper - At Last (Today Show 2004)

[poughkeepsiejohn1]

For me, the 1980's created only three great female vocalists...Annie Lennox, Sinead O'Connor and Cyndi Lauper...and Cyndi is probably the best of them all.

that shit was amazing i love her take.on it. always did

[KITCHEKATLAU]

omigosh goosebumps all over me.. she is amazing. i love her... this is from a mom from the philippines !!

[liloleme29]

Always surprising us...I LOVE HER!

[pablorubiolugo]

vocally Cindy is superior.

I like Madonna´s early dark vocal timbre, but today she sounds strained and tired.

Her chest voice sucks, she cant belt and is very weak in these days.

Although her low notes and head voice are awsome.

[pablorubiolugo]

who is madge??? you mean Madonna?

[DSD716]

This is from the heart, geez you talk about someone burying a song.....She does this with this interpetation.

[Ivaismusical]

This is AMAZING! Cyndi is amazing no doubt! <3

[xXCelineDionXx]

Her voice sounded annoying as hell during the high notes.

You guys should listen to Celine Dion's classy and flawless interpretation of this song :

@xXCelineDionXx I saw and heard Celine's version of "At Last", and I saw and heard Celine's version of "I Drove All Night", and I saw and heard Celine's version of "The World Is Stone", and guess what?, they are NOT better than Cyn's, in each and everyone of those songs, Cyndi hands Celine her heart on a platter. Celine has technicality, but concentrate all your effort on that technique and as a singer and performer you might lose fans of Soul and heart-wrenched performances.

in every single female video, EVERYBODY are talking about madonna in a good or bad way! this is the real proof that madonna is the spot reference for every female (and not only) artists. madonna is the one and only queen and mother of pop! lauper is great though!

[artemiscarrington]

@mtqop58 oh please, shut up right now. People are stupid and they compare singers to every single whore that is fashionable, like lady gaga. Cyndi lauper is AWESOME and unique, her voice can throw you to a wall and knock your down. And that's one thing madonna doesn't have: A REAL VOICE. she just whored through her whole career being a little ambitious cunt and that's how she got so far,

reality check? there are people who are not interested in the number one spot.

[mtqop58]

@artemiscarrington NOBODY can go THAT far without talent. and madonna DOES is a TALENTED artist, even we like it or not. cyndi lauper is talented as well and she just wanted an other way of expressing herself.

[artemiscarrington]

@mtqop58 Of course she's talented, but COME ON, Cyndi's voice is way better. I like madonna too, she's creative and has an amazing energy, but summing up as far as "voice" cyndi's the winner.

[mtqop58]

@artemiscarrington madonna's voice has not the range of lauper's voice, but this doesn't mean that she hasn't a good voice.

[CaledoniaJeanne]

Like wine, she keeps getting better.  This was fantastic!

[ynot0578]

Wow...this rivals Etta James version. The only cover I've ever heard that I would say that about. What a set of lungs!

[oliverlia]

So niceeee!! I love this song and Cyndi also!! =D

[florencelovme]

Glassy voice -_-

why couldnt she sing the blues in the 80s? why did she waste her time in silly pop songs? we had to wait 20 years for her voice to show.

[MercioFilho]

dont´ make this wthi me Cyndi. You Kill-me! I love YOU.

[triplexxxsatyr]

I don't mind Beyonce's version but Christina Aguilera butchered this song with her over-emphasis on warbling unnecessarily. Thank you, Cyndi. Thank you so much.

[Isanan]

Cyndi is very talented...I can´t understand what people see in Madonna,she is talentless,bitch and doesn´t reach Cyndi´s notes... this is sad because Cyndi is the true QUEEN OF POP,not Madonna.

[SarahCCal]

OMG I was there! The last shot for a split second was me haha. Man, can that woman sing! <3

[RCHairbrush]

In 1984, there were two new girl singers starting their careers. The one who was good at marketing herself as a product became a big name, but the one who could actually sing grew up to record this. Way to go, Cyndi!

[maremagnus]

Agree with you!

I wonder if ever the other girl will be able to sing in such high notes LIVE / A CAPELLA and not synths, samplers, or whatever to enhance the voice that NEVER we have heard from her.

I wonder I wonder I wonder

Quantity over quality once again, right?

[RCHairbrush]

It's the American way!

[mcasidis]

I loved your analogy! And even though at the time the two were compared to one another because of their superficial similarities (tulle skirts, messed-up hair, quirky style) "the other girl" never had "this girl" 's talent. Never will, either.

[RCHairbrush]

You agree with me: you must be brilliant!

[mcasidis]

And cute!!! (just kidding...) :)

[8bittrauma]

No need to hate.

[RCHairbrush]

Ah, but there is a need to be more clear. Exactly whom do you accuse of hating whom?

[8bittrauma]

It's obvious you're talking about Madonna. I just don't get why you have to put Madonna down to compliment Cyndi. Cyn's said before in an interview that she hated that about the peak of her fame.

[RCHairbrush]

Thanks for the clarification.

And yes, I was talking about Madonna. You're right that I don't need to disparage Madonna to compliment Cyndi Lauper. The two are unrelated. I would dislike Madonna even if Cyndi Lauper didn't exist.

[norcalgal21]

Damn she is awesome!

[mjr9303]

Miss you cindy

[laceleatherxxx]

dahmn shes good

[TwistedSadness]

AMAZING

[yayiemai]

she is still cute and she still got it

[Isanan]

wow...I love her voice...it´s so wonderful and powerful!!!!!!!

[mistermee29]

i WONDER IF etta LIKED THIS ONE. sHE PROBALY DID. bEYONCES IS SO bORING! gO cYNDI!!!

[P00PKINZ]

Cyndi is just a doll! I just love her! :)

[justwarren]

Compare this to Beyonce's inaugural song. No comparison. Cyndi rocks this song! Beyonce just doesn't work for me. She's just too fabricated and artificial. This version is so genuine, heartfelt and moving. I am with the guy who said, "Damn!"

[IrishChicknSTL]

Couldn't agree more!

[franklinajohnson]

she has this great maturity and richness to her voice

[scbysnck3]

She has a beautiful voice, I just wish the piano playing was a bit less bland. It would have highlited her talent even more.

She is great & classy!

[treg1980]

Showstopper!! And still people dare to say she didn't do this song any justice...

[murderxscenexromance]

well, her version is certainly a million times better than christina's.

[sukawhatwhat]

I don't get why they would think that. She sounds amazing on this song.

[wcbombers21]

DAMN DAMNNNNNNNNNNNNN! Breath Taking!

[masterskywalker73]

I LOVE YOU CYNDI!!!!!

[tonnyosmond]

she has a great voice .

[beelzabud]

Gorgeous! What a different sound for Ms. Lauper... never knew she had it in her. BRAVA!

[1ktm2]

Cyndi has an amazing voice and this song really shows it. She's so talented and beautiful.
