Cyndi Lauper "True Colors"

[Syrian00Prince]

شجاعته

[warewolf140]

was this song done as a tribute to homosexuals?

[Badger31201]

@warewolf140 While we gays have definitely embraced this song-- in no small part because of Cyndi's own activism on our behalf-- it was not written as an anthem for gay pride. This is from her 1986 album of the same name-- long before the public was accepting (esp given the AIDS crisis at the time)

[warewolf140]

@Badger31201 hey listen don't use the term we because i am not apart of the LGBT community, i was just seeking clarification on stories about this song being written by cindi lauper for one of her gay friends who have died of AIDS.

[Badger31201]

@warewolf140 I wasn't saying you were gay. Couldn't care less. But since I am gay, and since I was talking about the gay community's response to the song, it's appropriate for me to say "we".

[montelatici]

What a sweet woman, and so talented.

[laup974]

@laup974 - Cyndi Lauper...

Deem comes from the Old English word, deman — meaning "act as a judge." If you deem something, you essentially become the judge of whether it has a characteristic. For example, if you deem your little sister's jokes to be too ridiculous to listen to, you will probably just walk away.

[StacyTood]

So sad, they love it. Puke....

a person( life form) whom is deemed to be despicable or contemptible

To deem is a verb that means to view as or judge. Your parents or boss may deem something necessary that you don't, like coming home by midnight or working late.

Wow, it is to painful to talk about that. I need to rest and reflect.

[ohbandersnatch]

@StacyTood ?

[StacyTood]

"This is a very strong word that should be avoided in nearly all situations: fag (short for faggot) is a hateful slur against homosexuals. It's as bad an insult as nigger and cunt. Because fag is such an offensive word, the other meanings are uncommon, but fagging has also meant working hard and getting tired, as in fagging out. A fag — especially in England — is also a cigarette, and in British boys’ schools, fags are servants for older boys."

[StacyTood]

So don't be a fag? to let them show your true colors?

Is that what what I hear?

Wow, who is that?

[NikApos1]

@StacyTood You better pay atention, please, than to rush to comment whit contempt a song with emotional intelligence lyrics ... She says "So don't be afraid...". So, learn whit love, not superiority to the other - It's a important life lesson. Thank you and good luck!

[galenkia]

@StacyTood

It sounds to me like 'Don't be afraid to let the show'.

[888bread]

Reminds me of my friend Melinda when I hear this song.

[Premonitor]

It still hurts me not seeing Cyndi with her orange hair and jumping motion

[MsSherri13]

I love this song......it makes me feel like I'm 14 again.

[cheung326]

OMG so graceful thz so much Cyndi

[Anophis]

So nice!

[JaspurTheCat]

The facts about her song being used for politics. Remove space between. and com:

[DrNerdism]

17 year old guy..favourite song.

[Dredworld]

Must need money very desperately to sell her song for a campaign ad. Poor old crone.

[metrijst]

@Dredworld must need attention very desperately! go poison the internet somwhere else if you dont like it then dont watch it or listen to it!

[Dredworld]

Must be need money very badly to sell her song for a political campaign ad. Pathetic

[TheShuker]

@Dredworld She can do whatever she wants with her creation, the only pathetic thing is your sad life you must have to have to resort to random internet crap comments like this

[JaspurTheCat]

@TheShuker Deadwoodie is a troll. Cyndi's song was used without permission and Cyndi had it removed.

[Mr419247]

Love this song was me and my moms song when I was younger! Wonderful song and lady!

[TheStevo75]

[marwray1]

[spankette86]

Oh wow top song when I was born. I've always loved this song :)

[svo65]

[ALBERTOMEDINAC]

[caveraFC]

[galenkia]

This shows how good live music can be.

[TheNigelr]

Cyndi's talent and beauty are only matched by her humility................we are truly blessed to have her amongst us

[Tigrex009]

[TheDonkhead]

Part of the soundtrack to my youth

[tonchan134]

Ｉ lｉｋｅ ｉｔ(*^▽^*)

[MarshallMoomins]

brilliant. always loved her music in the 80s and still brilliant 20 ish yrs later.

[XXgav123xx]

WOW, What an amazing voice she has. I was captivated by her singing there

[RockyHorrorMagenta1]

This Just reminds me of how this generation has the most un-class,cheap music.

[supernova514]

This has to be the most beautiful song ever written! So beautiful!

[luckycharms1978]

@supernova514 She also does a song called time after time which is a great song as well. She really is a great artist. I miss this style of music.

[luckycharms1978]

@supernova514 I couldnt agree more.

[juvielynengnan]

I do like it. I thought she is just 18 yrs old. Her voice is very great!

[twirlie94]

I always cry this one an time after time

[EndermeanieMinecraft]

someone in my school graduation sung this........

i cried :)

[knightwriter007]

Billy Steinberg used to play guitar at a coffee shop in Palm Springs in the mid-

He told me the Beatles were going to be the next big thing. I thought he was crazy.

[OurLucylocket]

better than the first time round .. she still has it.. !

[TheYouApp]

@Colorlovers

[TyrQ888]

damn i miss the 80's.... :)

[grzegorz197308]

wymiata 

[sufirodger]

Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly originally wrote the song.

It was the only song on the True Colors album that Cyndi didn't help write.

[fabulenzia]

when I hear this beautiful song it remembers me always on Michael. First I thought she has made the song only for him. This is perhaps the best version I ever have heard. Thank you Cindy. You are such a unique person and a beautfil talent.

[poptart9]

She has my number!

[davidls11]

Thank you, Cyndi, for your work with the True Colors LGBT residence.

[Crav1nAzn]

You know you're good when Phil Collins does a cover of your song.

[Liipeex3]

the Cyndi is Amazing *-*

[Liipeex3]

[DeeArrindahood]

380 people suck ..... they don't know good music even when it smacks them in the face

[DeeArrindahood]

This song never gets old .... I could never get bored by Cyndi Lauper

[chlomiester364]

[kottraba]

[tokionakano]

[tokionakano]

@TheRushfanatic thank you so much!!

[clairemoyse]

love this song best ever beautiful xxxx

[jagara1]

From my calculations she is 54 in this video - still as beautiful as ever and more talented than ever :)

[DeeArrindahood]

@jagara1 Absolutely

[jenc1995]

@jagara1 Ur calcitaoin are wrong....she 58 and yes she still looks beautiful :)

[JohanKH]

@jagara1 I think she makes less "pressure" on the end of the sentences on say 01:27 and forward for a small while. Less energetic / enthusiastic. So I prefer the music video.

[robinh091]

One of the most touching voices i have ever heard

Always the best

[iDrumist]

my fav time after time song

[Laylow4now]

This devil worshipping whore led many astray. Curses upon her and this wretched song.

[yukichan854]

@Laylow4now Whats wrong with you??? Seriously

[Laylow4now]

@yukichan854 ...She is singing to Lucifer. Like many of the other famous rockers/rappers she is worshipping her master with song.

Don't believe me? Just listen to the song again and think about what I said.

[thevagabondsgambit]

@Laylow4now You must've misheard the 1st line, 'You with the sad eye' wherein "Sad Eye" sounds like "Satan"... Pls take off ur earmuffs. This is a song of inspiration and hope... Don't be afraid, let them shine. Be Truthful... Nothing wrong...

[Laylow4now]

@thevagabondsgambit ...Not at all. I heard the lyrics clearly. I know it says "sad eye" and this is a two or three level statement. One, it is an obvious reference to the all seeing eye of horus/illuminati/babylon worship. But above that, she is saying that she loves Lucifer, for who he really is. Please understand that Jehovah God alone is wrapped in light. A rainbow encircles his throne. Note that Lauper says, "like a rainbow" as in "I will make my throne like the Most High."

[Mittzie]

@Laylow4now she says sad eyes, as in depression you twit. your true colours being like a rainbow is in reference to a rainbow being a beautiful creation of nature. and people wonder why im a pagan. If your god doesnt like he wouldnt have made it possible to be created. She is stating that YOU as a person are beautiful for WHO you are not WHAT you are. as well as not needing materialistic things if you can find the silver linings in your life.

[Laylow4now]

@Mittzie ....I'm curious why you think its NOT a Satan worshipping song?

[Mittzie]

@Laylow4now and how would you like this in a line by line translation of what the song means or a general summary??

[MAsterKakashi6]

@Laylow4now

You're a damn fine example as to why many religious people are bat-shit insane. You're not funny.

[Glickstick]

@Laylow4now

Proving a negative? You religious fanatics are full of logical fallacies. It's so cute!

[Laylow4now]

@Glickstick ....You are right. Proving a negative is hard. If you will watch the Movie called, "They sold their souls for rock and roll" it will explain it very well. I don't agree with their presentation of "eternal hell" but otherwise, they are spot on. There is a long history of blatant and open Satan worship in the modern music industry. When you see it, you will recognize immediately what Cyndi Lauper is doing.

[Glickstick]

@Laylow4now

sigh. When I said proving a negative I was talking about the reasoning flaw. Look up Russell's teapot.... There is no evidence for the things your mind is so focused on. Pretty much everything you are talking about is a lie. and you're just perpetuating it. go educate yourself.

[Laylow4now]

@Glickstick .....Evidence? How about 6 decades of music performers in the USA who openly state that they have "sold their souls to the devil" and openly practice/advocate Satan worship. That is fairly plain and obvious evidence.

[lilynick1]

Looks and sounds just as good today! :)

[Soulfinger00Soul]

Still grea!

[TheJamieD87]

Cyndi would still get it!!!

[ptownpsjdlc]

I love true colors! it is a great song, and it is wonderful to see Cyndi play it on the dulcimer!! Cyndi also helped inspired this song (Joe and Paul a song about civil rights), although not as great :)

[Bosphorus32]

She may have wrote this, but Phil Collins owns this song

[Waboche]
