Cyndi recorded this with a very gentle voice because she wanted it to sound soft and childlike. she has spoken about the power of a whisper. The song was actually made as a tribute to her friend who recently died of AIDs. This song has gone on to become a major anthem for all those who suffer. Cyndi's song Im Gonna Be Strong is also amazing
I sang this as a tribute at the house of 1 of my best friends mothers after her funeral. We were sityjng arounf plating music and eating and talking about Sonya. I asked her if it was okay if I sing one of OUR favorite songs and she said YES. This and Time After Time were both of our favorites. She had the cassettes in her room but I told Mom don't worry about looking for them I'll sing it accapella. I'd had tears coming down while I was singing this and when I finished, Mom and Dad were both crying. It has always been a very emotional and special song for me and it just always will be. ❤
@@shawnloeffler6025 Cyndi said one version was inspired by it, but not the original rainbow flag. I always assumed Judy Garland inspired the original Rainbow flag.
Cyndi has one of the most fabulous voices in music. She never spanned her vocal power until a few years later. There is one song she sang on German TV with the Blue Angel. "I'm Gonna Be Strong." Amazing.
My big brother was 10 years older than me - but I always called him my "soul sibling" because we were so alike. When this song came out he told me that it makes him think of me... I lost my big brother almost ten years ago. Now this song makes me feel close to him again. ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for this special memory. ❤️❤️❤️
Honestly, I think the song embodies Cyndi. She still put her true self out there. She was known in the 80’s for her music but also for bright red hair & very different from the norm hairstyles & fashion sense. She is & always will be a trend setters who does her true self. Love her so much.
Remember the album was called "she's so unusual" - which is what was said about her in a way to NOT say "she's weird... or I don't get it" -- she was and IS awesome - I love the version of "We are the World" - that is all about Cyndi -- it's kind of hilarious - you can see most of the singers - like Huey Lewis - getting a kick out of it - but Kim Carnes is fuming... like her "big star moment" is being usurped... czcams.com/video/HpReqNFVL-0/video.html
GinMae i didn’t think she was unusual in anyway. She was so awesome; a breath of fresh air. Just being yourself is beautiful bc so many ppl try to follow the norm .
While Madonna was the bigger artist in the 80's, I always held more respect for Cyndi, much in the way people give respect to Lady Gaga or Pink. Because they can vocally back up their craft.
I also always thought that she is way more authentic than Madonna and really feels what she sings. Hearing True Colors live is such a goosebumps moment, because she sings it with her soul and she and the audience connect through that 💙
@@donaldshelton986 During the 80's, Madonna had 17 top 10 hits on Billboard, with 3 #1 albums. Cyndi on the other hand, only scored 7 top 10 hits, while her albums reached #4 twice and the 3rd failed to chart in the top 40. But in the end, I feel Cyndi's songs are more enduring.
"Sally's Pigeons" is beautiful, and emotionally devastating. I'd suggest it to India, but I think doing a reaction video would be difficult for anyone.
"Sally's Pigeons" is the single saddest song I have ever heard. I would like to see a reaction too it. It wouldn't be any harder on them then it would be on me.
One of my absolute favorite songs by her. Another favorite of mine by her is "She Bop" (totally different vibe). She has a LOT of fantastic songs! She also did the songs for the Broadway show Kinky Boots.
"time after time" is the other one song that i like too much.a few years ago, cindy came to brazil and participated in a program where she sang some songs and talked a lot with the presenter and answered questions asked by the young people in the audience. there I had a better view of who Cindy was. extremely smart. I was really impressed with her vision of music and the world. very clever
I remember when she first came out, everyone was calling her a freak and weirdo!! She was definitely different than what we ever seen, but I loved her music, fun and upbeat. Me and my ex went and seen her in concert, she was awesome!! Never judge a book by its cover Right!!!
Her differences is what drew me to her as a kid.She taught me to not be a cloned cog in the world machine.That it's ok to be different and that being different is beautiful.
U may know her must popular song, “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun”. She also sang the theme song from movie,”The Goonies”. U may remember this from the last part of the Romy & Michelle’s High School Reunion. When they are dancing with the guy who came in with the helicopter.
Cyndi Lauper was there on MTV in my earliest memories. I think young kids back then could relate to her because of her "kooky" and fun personality, but that would be more from her TV appearances and interviews than her music. Whenever Time After Time comes on the radio it still gets me to this day. The Goonies r Good Enough song and music video (parts 1 AND 2) are worth a try too. She also sang the Pee Wee's Playhouse theme song. I've always remembered Cyndi.
Cindy is very artistic. My favorite quote is from her actually. She said, "It's a strange lesson to learn in life that your differences, the things that make you feel uncomfortable about yourself are what will help you to grow into who you are. Those are your gifts."
Yes Cyndi was always a big one for artistry in her songs and videos, they're always pretty special. I do suggest watching more of her more famous songs, her chart toppers. Especially Time after Time, it's possibly even better than True Colours
The guy in the video was her real life boyfriend at the time, David Wolf. The white lady in the boat is her real life mother. She's my idol. She's always been genuine. She's worked her whole life to help LGBTQ youth. She does a commercial for a medication now, you've probably seen it. She's done a lot of fun songs...... Time After Time, She-Bop, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, I'm Gonna Be Strong, and she does a great version of At Last. She was a recurring guest on the tv show Bones and did a movie with Jeff Goldblum called "Vibes". Have fun exploring Cyndi!
Cyndi was and always has been HER true self. Beautiful voice. LOVE her style! She bought a lot of her clothes at a second hand shop from her neighborhood even after she became famous. "Time after Time" is a huge hit/song for her just like this one Thank you!✌💗🎶😁
If you like this one by Cyndi Lauper, you'd really like "Time After Time", a single from her debut album, "She's So Unusual". I believe it was her first #1 hit. It's definitely one of those that gets a good grip of your emotions.
She is a fantastic artist,both vocally and visually.Everything she does is unique and sometimes bizarre but always fantastic.She,to this day,she still colors her hair bright colors and was one of the first singers to do so.
My favorite of Cyndi's is the song "A Hole in My Heart that Goes all the Way to China" from the Movie "VIBES" which she also acted in. She has at least a 3 octave range.

Another wonderful reaction. This is one of my favorite songs...but, then again, I LOVE all of Cyndi Lauper's songs. Some of my favorites are "I'm gonna be strong" (breaks my heart everytime I listen to it) and "The world is stone"...and of course "Good enough", both videos. The first one, the main song, and the second one, the continuation to the video. Love it because it is the theme song for The Goonies. 😊
"True Colors" I love this beautiful song since I was a kid I was 8 years old when this song🎶came out in 1986 good memories from my childhood I miss the 80's 😭
Oh - Cyndi is one of my all time favorites. Her Sisters of Avalon is the shit. Saw her open for Cher - better than the main event. True Colors was a showstopper.
I've always loved Cyndi. First, she's a Brooklyn/Queens girl, and I'm from Long Island. We're basically neighbors lol. But , beyond that, there's a sincerity to her music that's so beautiful.
Cyndi is a true performance artist. She is amazing and I love, love, love her. She has so many amazing songs. And she still puts out new amazing music today.
She actually recorded that song first. Roy’s wasn’t released til a bit later, one of the last before he passed. I think Roy’s is heaps better personally, and the video is fire with Jason Priestly and Jennifer Connelly. Thanks for mentioning it, I’m gonna go crank it now! Take care
Hello India ! You've got to react to Cyndi's "I'm gonna be strong" ! Powerful song and vocals ! "My first time without you" is also worth to see ! One of my favorite of hers !
Cindy was a free spirit and blazed her own trails. She always seemed a little nutty and said whatever was flying through her brain at the time. I don't think people gave her much credit for her artistic abilities. If you look at her body of work over the years, you can see she is a brilliant talent who always gave her all.
I'm so glad you did this song. Your reaction was much like my own when I first heard it. Dare I say: love others for the content of their character, whatever "color" that may be. Edit: great reaction
She is wonderful. A great performer, artist and humanitarian. She has a great catalog of music. She's also a Tony award winner for writing the music for a Broadway Show
She still wears stuff like that. I saw she did a duet with Marilyn Manson a while back she had a neon yellow mohawk. I have always LOVED her unique style.
I love that you posted this on your Facebook Cyndi. I grew up different and afraid to be myself. You helped me so much back then with your music and your message. Forever grateful to you.
You and Teena Marie always sung my heart and have my undying love and respect. I was in high school when this song came out. And I took it to ❤. Thank you Cyndi for the light that is you!💝
The '80s would not have been the same without Cyndi Lauper. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun", "Time After Time", "The Goonies 'r' Good Enough", a fantastic role in "We Are The World/USA for Africa." Her powerful voice is showcased well in the beautiful "I'm Gonna Be Strong" czcams.com/video/rbx7ss4F7JE/video.html
80s music will always be considered the most dominant of all time. 100 years from now, 80s music will still be featured on most commercials and on people's music playlists, whether it's pop, rock, new wave and heavy metal.
Dana says- We used to take my son to a camp every year that was especially for us families with kids on the Autism Spectrum and at the end of camp, on the last day, we'd all gather for the kids to get their special awards. The very last thing we did every year was sing this song as one of the organizers led, playing the guitar. Most of us parents couldn't get through the song without breaking into tears because we know the battles our kids face every day and will always face, for understanding, to find friends, to withstand bullying and ignorance and people who are supposed to help them but don't, but we also cried because our kids are so amazing, have such strength and love and empathy, and because we love them for exactly who they are. This song will always hold a special place in our hearts and Cyndi's heart for anyone who is different, misunderstood, or just dances to the beat of a different drum is a blessing.
I went to her concert when she came over to the UK well it was 20 years ago. She was amazing live. Sounded just like her records in fact better. She didn’t stop performing throughout the concert. I will never forget it amazing lady 😊
Such a beautiful song and a beautiful voice. All my life I’ve been the outcast, the black sheep, the weird one and this song speaks to me. Reminds me to be myself no matter what other people say or think about me. Can’t help but tear up whenever I hear it.
Cyndi is an ICON!!! Always doing what she wants, and with the same message... Be free, be yourself, be what you want... Love her... Try some classics from her, Time After Time, All Through The Night, I Drove All Night, Money Changes Everything, Change of Heart, and her rendition of the HYMN Girls Jus Wanna Have Fun, great stuff in her discography...
for such a short woman, her voice will out blast even the most powerful of singers. Her voice is smooth and gentle, but also rediculously powerful. Love her music :)
Oh I love the video so much, just turned 8 years of age when it was released in '86. Kids just fell for Cindy & Madonna.... Pure magic 80s, at least for me....
Cyndi's songs are ALWAYS emotional, whether they're sad like my favorite Sally's Pigeons or fun like She Bop or Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. I suggest listening to Sally's Pigeons when you are alone. She Bop, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Iko Iko are fun and up-beat ones, but for emotional try All Through The Night, Time After Time, I'm Gonna Be Strong, I Drove All Night.
I have had a huge crush on Cyndi Lauper since I was like 6 or 7 watching her videos on MTV way back in the 80's. She's just so bubbly and upbeat her music always makes me feel better when I'm bummed out.
Cindy pauper purely is a original fun to listen to and look at this song has become a classic and timeless we need to hear her spirit right now thanks for your beautiful reaction u rock
From now on every time I hear this song I'm going to think of you and all your different hair colors! I love your colors India and that you're true to yourself!
I have heard this song since it first came out in the 80's, but I had never seen the video. I loved it! And with your reaction, it made it that much more enjoyable. Cyndi had some great music and amazing talent. Thank you India for reacting to Cyndi Lauper.
this superb song dates from 1986 but it still releases as much soul and Cindy Lauper but damn she superb voice there is a piece of her or her path is just magic it's the world is stone pure happiness thanks to you
I was shocked to see her in concert about 18 years ago and find she has HUGE pipes. That little girl voice was all I'd heard. She was even in a wheelchair (she said the elephant Cher Rode had knocked her off the stage and broke her leg), and she still belted her songs hard.
Though Cyndi didn't write this song, it ended up being her signature song. A few years after its release, the song was embraced by the LGBT community as an anthem for self-acceptance and solidarity. Having had a sister who is gay and having had a close friend who passed away from AIDS in the early 80s, Cyndi embraced this new following that the song had, and decided to make it into something. She started a foundation called The True Colors Fund with the intention of raising money to help fight homelessnes among LGBT youth. There is now a True Colors shelter and a True Colors concert tour that helps raise money for the foundation. Cyndi just turned 67 and continues to combine her music with her activism. As the title of her first album says, "She's So Unusual", but she's amazing as well.
True Colors was used by Kodak in 1988 (as sung by the American Boy Choir) for their Olympic Games promotions. The ad can still be found on CZcams. I remember it well being all of 11 at the time. Thank you for reacting to this song!
Cyndi recorded this with a very gentle voice because she wanted it to sound soft and childlike. she has spoken about the power of a whisper. The song was actually made as a tribute to her friend who recently died of AIDs. This song has gone on to become a major anthem for all those who suffer.

I believe this song also marked the start of the rainbow as a gay pride symbol
@@shawnloeffler6025 No. The first rainbow flag flew at the pride parade in San Francisco in 1978.
@@shawnloeffler6025 Cyndi said one version was inspired by it, but not the original rainbow flag. I always assumed Judy Garland inspired the original Rainbow flag.
@@kristie9144 either way, it's just a great song
Cyndi has one of the most fabulous voices in music. She never spanned her vocal power until a few years later. There is one song she sang on German TV with the Blue Angel.
"I'm Gonna Be Strong." Amazing.
Great song choice. Try her other song "Time After Time" another great
My favorite Cyndi Lauper song.
Definitely "Time After Time"
Yes please!
Fourthed!
YES!!! 🙌🙌🙌
My big brother was 10 years older than me - but I always called him my "soul sibling" because we were so alike. When this song came out he told me that it makes him think of me...
I lost my big brother almost ten years ago. Now this song makes me feel close to him again. ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for this special memory. ❤️❤️❤️
God rest his soul 🙏
What a great memory.
Wow. You just made me cry LoL. Not bad cry though. Just that it was about 10 years ago I lost my older brother too.
❤🙏
What a beautiful sentiment Amy,.
Honestly, I think the song embodies Cyndi. She still put her true self out there. She was known in the 80’s for her music but also for bright red hair & very different from the norm hairstyles & fashion sense. She is & always will be a trend setters who does her true self. Love her so much.
And she is still doing it. She is just as beautiful today as she was 35 years ago inside and out.
IMO Cyndi was/is far more of an artist than Madonna.
cephalotus59 I totally agree with you on that
Remember the album was called "she's so unusual" - which is what was said about her in a way to NOT say "she's weird... or I don't get it" -- she was and IS awesome - I love the version of "We are the World" - that is all about Cyndi -- it's kind of hilarious - you can see most of the singers - like Huey Lewis - getting a kick out of it - but Kim Carnes is fuming... like her "big star moment" is being usurped... czcams.com/video/HpReqNFVL-0/video.html

I remember when her album "She's So Unusual" came out,she was, and we thought she was the cooolest!
She still is!
@@Mark-zu6oz Both! lol
She was definitely different!!
Cyndi is the best
Every parent could sing this to their children & it would be so uplifting...
her voice is awesome
her personality is awesome
her fashion style is awesome
30+ years later and I still get goosebumps. Cyndi is a rare and special individual.
What memories! She did Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Time After Time.
Wore my cassette out playing her music!
While Madonna was the bigger artist in the 80's,
I always held more respect for Cyndi, much in the way people give respect to Lady Gaga or Pink. Because they can vocally back up their craft.
Cyndi garnered the respect and the rewards and the awards.
Totally right she oozes talent out of every pore.., I couldn’t understand why Madonna rose above , I really couldn’t 😟
I also always thought that she is way more authentic than Madonna and really feels what she sings. Hearing True Colors live is such a goosebumps moment, because she sings it with her soul and she and the audience connect through that 💙
Actually Cyndi was the bigger artist in 80s,Then Madonna in 90s
@@donaldshelton986 During the 80's, Madonna had 17 top 10 hits on Billboard, with 3 #1 albums. Cyndi on the other hand, only scored 7 top 10 hits, while her albums reached #4 twice and the 3rd failed to chart in the top 40.
But in the end, I feel Cyndi's songs are more enduring.
Cyndi Lauper had some huge hits. One one her lesser known songs was "Sally's Pigeons" - It is a real heartbreaker.
"Sally's Pigeons" is beautiful, and emotionally devastating. I'd suggest it to India, but I think doing a reaction video would be difficult for anyone.
"Sally's Pigeons" is the single saddest song I have ever heard. I would like to see a reaction too it. It wouldn't be any harder on them then it would be on me.
It's one of my favorite songs from Cyndi but I nearly cry every time I listen to it, especially after reading her biography...
@@evat7164 You nearly cry? What are you made of, ice?
@@alanfriesen9837 Come on 😂 the first 10 times or so I cried. Hard. But now I'm just prepared for the sadness hitting me 🤷🏻
One of my absolute favorite songs by her. Another favorite of mine by her is "She Bop" (totally different vibe). She has a LOT of fantastic songs! She also did the songs for the Broadway show Kinky Boots.
"time after time" is the other one song that i like too much.a few years ago, cindy came to brazil and participated in a program where she sang some songs and talked a lot with the presenter and answered questions asked by the young people in the audience. there I had a better view of who Cindy was. extremely smart. I was really impressed with her vision of music and the world. very clever
I have always loved Cindi she has always been an artist who put her money where her heart was and spokesperson for several needy causes
Cyndi is a Tony Award winning composer for writing the music for the musical play, Kinky Boots.
Is that the play Brendan Urie was in??
@@skeriicain Yes.
She also won an Emmy for guest appearance in a comedy series. For her recurring role on Mad About You.
If I remember correctly she was also on a few episodes of Bones.
@@itsallgood4093 yes she was.
The most underrated singer songwriter imo. Her vocal range is off the chart.
I remember when she first came out, everyone was calling her a freak and weirdo!! She was definitely different than what we ever seen, but I loved her music, fun and upbeat. Me and my ex went and seen her in concert, she was awesome!! Never judge a book by its cover Right!!!
Her differences is what drew me to her as a kid.She taught me to not be a cloned cog in the world machine.That it's ok to be different and that being different is beautiful.
Really? Here in the States everyone loved her originality.
U may know her must popular song, “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun”. She also sang the theme song from movie,”The Goonies”. U may remember this from the last part of the Romy & Michelle’s High School Reunion. When they are dancing with the guy who came in with the helicopter.
Time After Time was in the movie
Girls Just Want to Have Fun by Cyndi Lauper is one of the most fun songs I ever heard of my life I love it please try that one India thank you
That dance scene was to "Time After Time", not "True Colors".
She also did the theme for Pee Wee’s playhouse
I would argue Time After Time is her most popular song.
Cyndi Lauper was there on MTV in my earliest memories. I think young kids back then could relate to her because of her "kooky" and fun personality, but that would be more from her TV appearances and interviews than her music. Whenever Time After Time comes on the radio it still gets me to this day. The Goonies r Good Enough song and music video (parts 1 AND 2) are worth a try too.

Time after time, girls just want to have fun and she sings in USA Africa song we are the world
Cyndi Lauper is one of the true great popstars
Yes Cyndi was always a big one for artistry in her songs and videos, they're always pretty special.
I do suggest watching more of her more famous songs, her chart toppers. Especially Time after Time, it's possibly even better than True Colours
The guy in the video was her real life boyfriend at the time, David Wolf. The white lady in the boat is her real life mother.
She's my idol. She's always been genuine. She's worked her whole life to help LGBTQ youth. She does a commercial for a medication now, you've probably seen it.
She's done a lot of fun songs...... Time After Time, She-Bop, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, I'm Gonna Be Strong, and she does a great version of At Last. She was a recurring guest on the tv show Bones and did a movie with Jeff Goldblum called "Vibes".
Have fun exploring Cyndi!
The other lady in the boat is or was Stevie Wonders mom!
loved Cyndi, she would do little comedy routines in the middle of interviews! No one like her, she's always been fun xx
One of the truly, criminally underrated and underappreciated singers of the last 40 years.
'All through the night' is my favorite Cyndi song
Amazing Song that. I love The World is Stone 😁
Time after time as in the movie Strictly Ballroom. Girls Just Want to Have Fun is just fun. I love it.
Cyndi was and always has been HER true self. Beautiful voice. LOVE her style! She bought a lot of her clothes at a second hand shop from her neighborhood even after she became famous.
"Time after Time" is a huge hit/song for her just like this one
Thank you!✌💗🎶😁
If you like this one by Cyndi Lauper, you'd really like "Time After Time", a single from her debut album, "She's So Unusual". I believe it was her first #1 hit. It's definitely one of those that gets a good grip of your emotions.
Cyndi doesn’t do a bad song!! She is truly exceptional!
Try Time After Time next.
Another beautiful song.
She is a fantastic artist,both vocally and visually.Everything she does is unique and sometimes bizarre but always fantastic.She,to this day,she still colors her hair bright colors and was one of the first singers to do so.
I saw this pop up, and thought, "Oh, she's going to really like this one!"
My 9 year old daughter and I sing this all of the time to each other
My favorite of Cyndi's is the song "A Hole in My Heart that Goes all the Way to China" from the Movie "VIBES" which she also acted in. She has at least a 3 octave range.
Another wonderful reaction. This is one of my favorite songs...but, then again, I LOVE all of Cyndi Lauper's songs. Some of my favorites are "I'm gonna be strong" (breaks my heart everytime I listen to it) and "The world is stone"...and of course "Good enough", both videos. The first one, the main song, and the second one, the continuation to the video. Love it because it is the theme song for The Goonies. 😊
I can remember Cyndi saying "Who is this Cyndi Lauper and why is she so unusual?"
Heh, and the title references (with a gender-flip) a Helen Kane song from the late 1920s that she partially covers on that album. ;P
"True Colors" I love this beautiful song since I was a kid I was 8 years old when this song🎶came out in 1986 good memories from my childhood I miss the 80's 😭
I haven't heard this song in a long time and I really enjoyed listening along with you.
Oh - Cyndi is one of my all time favorites. Her Sisters of Avalon is the shit. Saw her open for Cher - better than the main event. True Colors was a showstopper.
Richard, “the shit” is slang for “great.”
It’s NOT like saying “that albums shit.” which has the opposite meaning.
I've always loved Cyndi. First, she's a Brooklyn/Queens girl, and I'm from Long Island. We're basically neighbors lol. But , beyond that, there's a sincerity to her music that's so beautiful.
Cyndi is a true performance artist. She is amazing and I love, love, love her. She has so many amazing songs. And she still puts out new amazing music today.
I have seen her in concert twice (30 years apart). She finished on this song both times. She is a true talent.
I loved Cyndi's music from the first note. A beautiful soul shining through a beautiful voice.
Love cyndi lauper she was a massive big deal in the 80s - check out her cover of Roy Orbison’s I Drove All Night - you will love it! 😘
Especially the live version on her CZcams page
I love all her songs! But..., I've always been drawn to that one!
The video was the first time an artist appeared completely naked in their music promo
My favorite song of hers!!!!
She actually recorded that song first. Roy’s wasn’t released til a bit later, one of the last before he passed. I think Roy’s is heaps better personally, and the video is fire with Jason Priestly and Jennifer Connelly. Thanks for mentioning it, I’m gonna go crank it now! Take care
Hello India ! You've got to react to Cyndi's "I'm gonna be strong" ! Powerful song and vocals ! "My first time without you" is also worth to see ! One of my favorite of hers !
If you want to discover another side of Cyndi, I highly recommend you to watch "Money changes everything" live ! The girl has such an energy !
I am already laughing at your eventual reaction to She Bop!
Truth! Lol..
Oh I can't wait for that...lol
The song that got her put on Tipper Gore's naughty list.
Lol
Yesssss
Quite possibly one of the most BEAUTIFUL songs ever written.
The opening piano/guitar chords are simply STUNNING.
Cindy was a free spirit and blazed her own trails. She always seemed a little nutty and said whatever was flying through her brain at the time. I don't think people gave her much credit for her artistic abilities. If you look at her body of work over the years, you can see she is a brilliant talent who always gave her all.
You should listen to " I Drove ALL Night" She did an awesome job of that one.
"I drove all night", a cover better than the original, and I like the original but she puts a lot of energy on this one
I much prefer Cyndi's version over Celine's.
Also another great cover Cyndi's done is "When you were mine" (originally by Prince)
True. I love Roy Orbison, but his version of Drove All Night sounds too subdued in comparison.
"All Through the Night" and " I Drove All Night" are two of her best.
I love all through the night!
All through the night number one in my list yep
All Through the Night is just soo ethereal,so beautiful.
Do Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper please
I'm so glad you did this song. Your reaction was much like my own when I first heard it. Dare I say: love others for the content of their character, whatever "color" that may be.
Edit: great reaction
She is wonderful. A great performer, artist and humanitarian. She has a great catalog of music. She's also a Tony award winner for writing the music for a Broadway Show
I’m here because Cyndi posted your vid on her own fb page! She saw it! Love your reaction. This is one of my fave songs!
One of my favorite Song of the 90s.. back then..now at 53 still bring tears to my eyes...so beautiful & humble song..
She still wears stuff like that. I saw she did a duet with Marilyn Manson a while back she had a neon yellow mohawk. I have always LOVED her unique style.
A lot of great Lauper songs.And not just her hits.Too many to even begin to name.One of my favorite musicians.And very under-rated.
I love that you posted this on your Facebook Cyndi. I grew up different and afraid to be myself. You helped me so much back then with your music and your message. Forever grateful to you.
Love your songs and voice ,so amazing
You and Teena Marie always sung my heart and have my undying love and respect. I was in high school when this song came out. And I took it to ❤. Thank you Cyndi for the light that is you!💝

My husband LOVES to perform Cyndi Lauper songs for karaoke--he channels her!
The '80s would not have been the same without Cyndi Lauper. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun", "Time After Time", "The Goonies 'r' Good Enough", a fantastic role in "We Are The World/USA for Africa." Her powerful voice is showcased well in the beautiful "I'm Gonna Be Strong" czcams.com/video/rbx7ss4F7JE/video.html
80s music will always be considered the most dominant of all time. 100 years from now, 80s music will still be featured on most commercials and on people's music playlists, whether it's pop, rock, new wave and heavy metal.
Dana says- We used to take my son to a camp every year that was especially for us families with kids on the Autism Spectrum and at the end of camp, on the last day, we'd all gather for the kids to get their special awards. The very last thing we did every year was sing this song as one of the organizers led, playing the guitar. Most of us parents couldn't get through the song without breaking into tears because we know the battles our kids face every day and will always face, for understanding, to find friends, to withstand bullying and ignorance and people who are supposed to help them but don't, but we also cried because our kids are so amazing, have such strength and love and empathy, and because we love them for exactly who they are. This song will always hold a special place in our hearts and Cyndi's heart for anyone who is different, misunderstood, or just dances to the beat of a different drum is a blessing.
I went to her concert when she came over to the UK well it was 20 years ago. She was amazing live. Sounded just like her records in fact better. She didn’t stop performing throughout the concert. I will never forget it amazing lady 😊
Cyndi Lauper is an icon. She performed for Cher at the Kennedy Honors, the same one Adam Lambert performer Believe. She’s quintessential.
That was funny when she Lied to Cher !
Such a beautiful song and a beautiful voice. All my life I’ve been the outcast, the black sheep, the weird one and this song speaks to me. Reminds me to be myself no matter what other people say or think about me. Can’t help but tear up whenever I hear it.
Time after time is her best song
Cyndi is an ICON!!! Always doing what she wants, and with the same message... Be free, be yourself, be what you want... Love her... Try some classics from her, Time After Time, All Through The Night, I Drove All Night, Money Changes Everything, Change of Heart, and her rendition of the HYMN Girls Jus Wanna Have Fun, great stuff in her discography...
She has such a beautiful voice...one of my favorite singers from that time...and I love this song
Absolutely beautiful reaction. I felt it back then. I was a teenager back then.
for such a short woman, her voice will out blast even the most powerful of singers. Her voice is smooth and gentle, but also rediculously powerful. Love her music :)
Oh I love the video so much, just turned 8 years of age when it was released in '86.
Kids just fell for Cindy & Madonna....
Pure magic 80s, at least for me....
I feel so emotional today, and this song go straight to my heart.
One of the greatest. Please react to more songs from Cyndi.
React to one of her hit song "Girls just wanna have fun"
This is one of her hit songs....
Cyndi's songs are ALWAYS emotional, whether they're sad like my favorite Sally's Pigeons or fun like She Bop or Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. I suggest listening to Sally's Pigeons when you are alone. She Bop, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Iko Iko are fun and up-beat ones, but for emotional try All Through The Night, Time After Time, I'm Gonna Be Strong, I Drove All Night.
I have had a huge crush on Cyndi Lauper since I was like 6 or 7 watching her videos on MTV way back in the 80's. She's just so bubbly and upbeat her music always makes me feel better when I'm bummed out.
This will always be my favorite version of this song. She's so sweet and her voice is so comforting.
I can't believe Cyndi saw your video of you watching this video. Very cool.
These Dreams, by Heart is a mystically wonderful feeling song.
“She Bop” (you’ll be surprised what it’s about 😉) “Time after Time” ,”money changes everything.” ❤️💛☮️💟✌️
I love listening to these songs of cyndi lauper when I’m driving in the rain. True colors, good enough, Time after time & All through the night.
she is another one of my favorite artists. thank you for the reaction she truly has a good soul.
Wonderful tune. She's just a good person.
When I was a little kid, back then, Cyndi Lauper was my favorite lady artist, and this was my favorite song. I'm so glad you picked this one!
Cindy pauper purely is a original fun to listen to and look at this song has become a classic and timeless we need to hear her spirit right now thanks for your beautiful reaction u rock
I grew up in the 80's and loved so many Cyndi Lauper songs!! I love when she did her take on Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On".
From now on every time I hear this song I'm going to think of you and all your different hair colors! I love your colors India and that you're true to yourself!
I've always loved Cyndi Lauper and remember when this song was new. Really brings back young memories. Thanks for posting, India. 😊
I have heard this song since it first came out in the 80's, but I had never seen the video. I loved it! And with your reaction, it made it that much more enjoyable. Cyndi had some great music and amazing talent. Thank you India for reacting to Cyndi Lauper.
Love this song. Beautiful voice.
Remember it from my childhood.
Beautiful.
Cyndi was my hero growing up. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on her! Made me cry... brought me back. ❤️
Cyndi is the most underrated singer ever, India! Her writing, and her range in singing voice! wow xx
this superb song dates from 1986 but it still releases as much soul
and Cindy Lauper but damn she superb voice
there is a piece of her or her path is just magic it's
the world is stone
pure happiness
thanks to you
I was shocked to see her in concert about 18 years ago and find she has HUGE pipes. That little girl voice was all I'd heard. She was even in a wheelchair (she said the elephant Cher Rode had knocked her off the stage and broke her leg), and she still belted her songs hard.
Though Cyndi didn't write this song, it ended up being her signature song. A few years after its release, the song was embraced by the LGBT community as an anthem for self-acceptance and solidarity. Having had a sister who is gay and having had a close friend who passed away from AIDS in the early 80s, Cyndi embraced this new following that the song had, and decided to make it into something. She started a foundation called The True Colors Fund with the intention of raising money to help fight homelessnes among LGBT youth. There is now a True Colors shelter and a True Colors concert tour that helps raise money for the foundation. Cyndi just turned 67 and continues to combine her music with her activism. As the title of her first album says, "She's So Unusual", but she's amazing as well.
Sick “Dazed and Confused” t-shirt. Respect.
True Colors was used by Kodak in 1988 (as sung by the American Boy Choir) for their Olympic Games promotions. The ad can still be found on CZcams. I remember it well being all of 11 at the time. Thank you for reacting to this song!
💖💖🎶🎶luv luv. Cyndi lauper she was and still is one of the great female artists in the 80’s
