Cyndi Lauper in Blue Angel : I Had A Love"
Taken from the "Blue Angel" LP
A favorite of mine!! Blue Angel was a retro-rockabilly band that featured Cyndi Lauper before her rise to fame as a solo singer. The lineup also included John Turi on keyboard instrument and saxophone, Arthur "Rockin' A" Neilson (guitar), Lee Brovitz (bass guitar) and Johnny Morelli (drums). Lauper and Turi wrote the bulk of their material, and the group also covered pop standards, such as Mann/Weil's "I'm Gonna Be Strong" (which Lauper covered again in a 1994 album). Blue Angel was briefly popular on the New York club scene.
Their only album, the self-titled Blue Angel, was released in 1980. It featured a sparse punk rock and New Wave-styled cover in primary red and floating band member photos. The sales for the album was more successful overseas than in America. The only track to achieve high chart status was "I'm Gonna Be Strong", which reached #37 in the Netherlands. Another song from the album, "Maybe He'll Know", was rerecorded by Lauper on her second solo album, True Colors, in 1986.
DO NOT OWN SONG
Lyrics:
I had a love
Sweeter than you'll know
Oh I had a lifetime in a moment
He was a boy
I loved so tenderly
He could have been
But he walked away - oh, oh, oh, oh
Baby don't go
I thought maybe I should have
Told you long before
Something inside is erasing
The time back to the memory-
When you were mine.

I just downloaded this LP from iTunes.. with it I've finished to download all her albums... It's such a shame the great singer and woman didn't get the deserved success... I'm fifteen but she is like my idol, great personality, such a lovely human being...
