As a huge Hair band guy in the 80’s I despised this song and pretty much everything done by her. It wasn’t until later in life when I realized what a unique and beautiful voice this woman has. Not only that she is as genuine and as sweet a person as she portrays in her videos. I spent 23 years as a catering chef, I won’t name the company I worked for but I worked the Hollywood Bowl every summer, and had a chance to meet her. Now I’m a forever fanboy of hers.
Just minutes ago I came to that same decision.
.
I can relate. I never liked her, myself. Never met her personally, so.... but seeing Brad and Lex react to it was both entertaining and nostalgic. A blast from the past.
That's cool!!
I played in a hair band in the 80's. My thing was some mainstream pop songs i really liked. This being one.
I still dispise her but someone's garbage is another one treasure
This was a big MTV favorite. Her mom was really Cyndi's real mom and her "dad" was Captain Lou Albano of WWF fame.
MTV seems like a thousand years ago. 😞
Cyndi was apparently a big wrestling fan....
And all the ladies in those scenes are Cyndi's real life friends.
Yep I remember being on one of those wrestling shows
And he played Mario in the Super Mario Super Show.
Rest in Peace Catrine Lauper the mother of Cyndi Lauper who past away a few days ago. She starred in this music video as Cyndi's mother while also appearing in some other music videos as well.
Oh wow I was just watching her mom in the video here and wondering if she was still with us. RIP
She's still alive - her MOTHER passed away on June 1.
@@3DJapan She's still alive - her MOTHER passed away on June 1.
I think she was in Time after Time also.
@@870expressmag yeah featuring a young kid Cyndi and her mother along with a scene where Cyndi returns to her mother. She’s also in the Goonies music video as well.
At least here in the UK, this was her first single, and she was a true force of nature, unlike anyone else we had ever seen. When music took itself far too seriously, and it really did in the early 80's, she came along and made everything fun.
Then later songs like Bobby McFerrin's Don't Worry, Be Happy added to the 80s freestyle sound.
This was a hit in the UK... first time around!
40 years later. Still a song that every age knows and can sing along. Just fell good 80's music
I saw Cyndi in concert when her "She's So Unusual" album was exploding. She held off doing this song until the end, then recruited girls from the audience to join her in a conga line and sing "They just wanna, they just wannnnaaaaaa". She led them on stage then up and down the aisles of the theater. Great way to end the show!
I love that!
80s was the start of the dance clubs when me and my gal pals would go out and party! Cyndi Lauper kind of had a Betty Boop voice, but man could she belt! This one was a fun one!
This is THE BEST dance song of the 80's!! In college we lived for this song....and every club played it at least five times a night!!!
Impossible to not be happy listening to this song.
Brad & Lex, her "Money Changes Everything" and "She Bop" are next for you!!
Yep, they gotta do those two
I'd be interested to see if Brad can figure out what "She Bop" is about lol
@@Blu9_Nin9 😂
She was one of the few, along with Michael Jackson, Billy Idol, Boy George, Motley Crue and Willie Nelson that David Lee Roth parodied in his 'Just a Gigolo' video. I'd say that somewhat shows her popularity as an 80's 'icon'.
"Time After Time" is another classic song by Cyndi Lauper. One of the greatest love ballads. It really showcases her versatility & vocals especially when compared to this song. She's definitely underrated and was neck & shoulders above other pop singers of her era.
That's one that has definitely grown on me over the years. I probably thought it was okay back then, but wasn't into that style of song. I heard it used in a TV show in the past few years and it had more of an emotional impact. Now I really like the song.
They already reacted to it.
Honestly, I like the most this however I'm actually very happy with this as well.
"Girls Just Want to Have Fun" is a song written, recorded and performed by American musician Robert Hazard in the late 1970s. However, I think Cyndi"s version captures the true essence of the song.
And Hazard kept the rights to the song and got stupid rich off it. All you writers out there: never never never give up the rights to your songs.
@@LinkRocks Just like Dolly Parton's "I will always love you".
Robert Hazard and the heroes from Philadelphia Pennsylvania you are absolutely right sir. May he rest in peace on the escalator of life.
This song was a huge huge hit. This is her signature song. The song that made her big. My favorite is time after time.
It's amazing to think this was a remake and it's originally done by a dude. I can't imagine anyone but her doing it
@@geneholland1188 yeah this was a unknown song written by a man and cyndi made it huge.
yes and huge cover song too
Cyndi's voice had a wide vocal range. That was her real mother in the video. She had more personality than all the female singers of today put together. This song saved my life.
This was Cyndi Lauper's first single as a solo artist. She released an album in 1981 as a member of the group Blue Angel, but "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" made her famous.
The song was a huge part of '80s culture. It became an anthem for female attitude and set fashion trends as the video showed Lauper wearing bright, outrageous clothes that looked like they came from a thrift store (they often did). It set the stage for artists like Madonna: independent women wearing cheap, yet fashionable clothes with a taste for garish accessories. Lauper co-wrote many of her own songs, but not this one. Like "I Will Survive," it's a girl power song written by a man. A Philadelphia singer/songwriter named Robert Hazard, who had a band called Robert Hazard and the Heroes, wrote it. Hazard recorded his demo of the song in 1979. Speaking with Rolling Stone, Lauper said that she had to alter the lyrics from Hazard's original. "It was originally about how fortunate he was 'cause he was a guy around these girls that wanted to have 'fun' - with him - down there, which we do not speak lest we go blind," she said.
Cyndi Lauper has such an incredibly powerful voice. You should see some of her live performances. Her voice will blow you away. In the 80s, Madonna was huge, but Cyndi ruled. And she is even credited with influencing a lot of modern women artists today.
Cyndi and Madonna broke out around the same time. Many wondered which one would have the bigger career. Madonna proved to be the one to go on to reinvent herself as times changed, making movies, and on to superstardom. Cyndi pretty much faded as a symbol of the 1980’s.
Songs (and videos) like this really remind you how wonderful the 80s were. What may seem 'silly' by today's youth was pure magic back then. Cindy Lauper really has an incredible voice, and this video exploded on radio and MTV back in the day. A truly classic song and video. This was almost 40 years ago. Wow. I'm gonna play 'Time" by Pink Floyd now. I want my MTV back!
I fell in love with Cyndi Laupers vioce back in 1983 and I'm still in love with her voice today...
Me too😂
I was a b-boy into electro
hip hop, in the 80s
but had a secret crush on cyndi
And susanah hoffs 🥰
And Ally Sheedy
Love Cyndi. All her music is so fun. Reminds me of being a kid.
Cyndi Lauper is a national treasure!
I forgot that Steve Forbert shows up at the end with flowers. His "Romeo's Tune" is excellent and worth a reaction!
Thank you for mentioning that because I was sitting here trying to remember what the name of the song was and all I could think was that there was a Romeo in it. I'm also pretty sure it was the only song of his I ever heard.
I once cracked Steve Forbert up at one of his shows at The Bottom Line in NYC by yelling, "What were you doing in that Cyndi Lauper video?"
Absolute legend 🙏
The eighties were fun and this song was an instant mega-hit! I remember back then in school you were either a Cyndi Lauper girl or Madonna girl and I like both but I was more a Cyndi girl because she was "So Unusual"! I Still have her breakout album "She's So Unusual" on vinyl and I love to play it every now and then...the whole album is amazing! That's her real mom, Catrine Lauper and Capt. Lou Albano (a famous wrestler) playing her parents. Her mom was in most of her videos! RIP to her mom who just recently passed.💖💖
Cyndi Lauper is a living legend, one of my favorite artists, and one of the most inspiring for me, even being a little white guy trying to make funk music. The magic of her sound, her incredible vocal range, the positivity of the message, and the personal freedom she inspires, it's all musical perfection. She apparently had been working in a band for a long time trying to make it, more rock and roll stuff, and at one point she went to several doctors thinking she'd lost it forever, and then finally blew up as a solo artist. Love you guys reacting to her, awesome stuff.
Also True Colors, She Bop, and All Through the Night are my personal favorite tracks ~
I had this song on a 12 inch vinyl single! Try her slow song “Time After Time” I’m sure you will like it.
Miles Davis covered Time After Time. That's worth a listen too.
They actually did that one already.
“She Bop” is still a fave of mine! What a blast!
At 68 years old, Cindy is one of those singers who can still hit those high pitch notes that other singers in their 60's would not even attempt to sing anymore - mainly because they can't hit those pitches anymore.
Also, if you ever watched, Electric Woman and Dyna Girl in the 1970's - every Saturday Morning - Cindy at 17 yrs old, sang the intro theme song for that show: czcams.com/video/xc4-SRBykbE/video.html
wow, I totally didn't know that. thanks for the tidbit. loved that intro song as a kid, and all those Sid and Marty Kroft shows, even more so now after learning this.
I really didn't appreciate this song until i played it for my now 12 my year old daughter. It was on the movie "girls just want to have fun". It made me laugh and i play it for her on the first day on school to help her calm down.
“She’s so unusual “ was the name of her album. It was perfect for her.
These are one of the best vocal lines in a complete song. Not a dull part in it. Fantastic.
Even as a metalhead since '83, I appreciated certain new wave or pop songs back then, this being one of them. It captured the spirit of the 80s so well, especially from a feminine point of view...80's musical feminism, I suppose, without it being overly political or in your face that way...just fun.
The song was originally written from the male point of view, but Cyndi Lauper’s version flipped that, turning it into a message of equality for women. Her version went on to be nominated and win numerous awards and features in both Rolling Stone Magazine and MTV’s top 100 music videos of all time.
I Love the 80's music
Cyndi Lauper was and still is a true New Yorker! Just listen to her talk sometime LOL. Her music is timeless and as she got older it was still Timeless still Harvey fierstein asked her to write the music for the Broadway musical Kinky Boots for which she won a Tony Award
Good enough, is my favorite Cyndi Lauper song it showcases her voice the best
What an amazing time to be alive. Cyndi Lauper, The Goonies, 80s metal, Rambo, Aliens, Nintendo… Awww… Those were the days.
One of the greatest songs of the 80s. Thanks for the reaction 👍
This was my anthem...back in the day. I looked around and saw how hard a woman's life was...my mother's in particular, and this became my anthem. Love you and miss you mum🥰💕Thank you for everything💗
Late 80 early 90s is all LISA FRANK !!! MY CHILDHOOD
This is THE BEST SONG to blast louder than the speakers are able to on a road trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The 80’s were fun! This song was played everywhere. It was a female anthem for the times 😎
This video won a Grammy.
Fun fact: when Cyndi Lauper won a Tony Award for her musical "Kinky Boots" in 2013, "Forbidden Broadway" parodied her rephrasing this song.
Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
I wanna be the one to walk in the sun
Oh, girls, they wanna have fun
This always struck me as a very deep line, "I want to be the one to walk in the sun" is so strong to me.
You two are correct, the 80s was a blast! I was in high school then and some of my best memories are from that time period! So much fun in the music, clothing, and hair styles!
Us head bangers held high-high annoyance towards this song because it was on MTV so much. But by the late 90's, I came to really appreciate her. Would love to see her live.
Cyndi Lauper - truly is truly a great artist not to mention her voice is very high and can sing just about anything. She is that GREAT! She also worked with Cher and Cyndi also wrote some other beautiful songs too!
I simply can't be in a bad mood watching Lex jamming. Keep rocking girl.
She's got one of those voices that most people can't cover her songs she's amazing
I remember this when it first come out , still the best time to have grown up , no cell phones no social media and everyone got along , no internet it was fantastic
The Age of Rock! 🤘🏼⚡🤘🏼
Which version? This one or the orginal?
This song was a MONSTER! Cyndi is a legend for 10 different reasons! No one sounds like her and no one ever will. Her voice is like a pinball machine on speed and produces sounds that defy understanding. This could be one of the most perfect, exuberant pop songs of all time. In 200 years, this song will still be a hit and an anthem for girls around the world. The video to this song is a trip! "She Bop" "All Through the Night" I Drove All Night" "Like a Cat" "Money Changes Everything"
I feel like Cyndi has gotten better with age I never really looked at her lyrics but after paying attention to a couple of her songs I'm putting her in Carole Kings class deep emotional and meaningful I'm impressed
The 80's were fun, but there were no Brad and Lex reaction videos!
Thanks for this! She was fantastic in performance as well as moxie.
Just to point out, the Dad in the video was WWE star Lou Albano. Extremely popular in pop culture at the time of this video.
Back then, it was known as the WWF.
I remember when she managed Wendy Richter vs The Fabulous Moolah in Wrestlemania.
@@melaniesweeten5401 you're right, sorry
It is amazing how you both get the 80’s Vibe. It was Fantastic esp. concerts like VH in 1982.Detroit
Brad & Alex, you just HAVE to listen to “True Colours” & “I Drove All Night” …so, SO good! 👌🏻
My favourite female 80's Pop singer, and one of my favourite voices overall. 👍🤟❤
I knew that Lex would like this, Brad, glad that you liked it to! This song is still a great song. The 80s music is still the best!
Cindy was always the life of the party!
the most beautiful voice of the last 30 years
If you want to see how powerful Cyndi's Voice can be, I recommend "I Drove all night". Also, I highly recommend B52's June Bug for Lex. Lex has the best reactions to B52's! LOL
She is so cute and this song puts you in a great mood.
Cyndi can sing "blues" music too and really hit those notes & hold them. She can really belt out "At Last".
My fav song from Cindy Lauper is "Money changes everything" 🤘😎🤘
Cindi always had a great voice, though it wasn't always heard in some of her pop hits. Check her out singing "At Last". Great song and she does a great job with it.
She did a version of Girls Just Want to Have Fun on David Letterman supporting the Twelve Deadly Cyns album that was amazing. I bought the album the next day. That album and At Last I still listen to quite a bit. I like her bluesy stuff better than the pop stuff.
Watching you guys listen to this reminds me of how much fun we had in the '70s and '80s and it seriously brings a tear to my eye for today.
The cultural impact of this song cannot be overstated - it was one of the early mega-hits on MTV, and launched Lauper into superstardom. I know you've reacted to some of her other work, but I don't think you've done "All Through the Night" yet - I would highly, highly recommend that one as it's my favorite song by her. Cyndi was one of the true icons of the 80's - she changed music, fashion, and from everything I've ever heard was a truly kind-hearted woman. What a legend!
Oh when the working day is done .... girls just wanna have fun! I love it! Takes me back.
That may have been the biggest hit of the 80s. The Boss came with a string of hits from his Born In The USA album in 86 had a monster tour. I was there.
Both Born in the USA and this song came out in '84 lol
@@johnsonmark65 It was a great concert.
The song actually has a very good message. I am an old guy now and I tell these young guys ... let your girls have fun. Don't try to control them or you will lose them.
The 89's was the most fun ever. Especially in LA. Nothing better than being a young man coming up in LA in the 80's. Every day was a party. Literally.
The unique instrument sound is that of a xylophone, played by striking tuned pieces of metal (similar to the concept of a steel drum, but different). : ) Of course, everything can be electronically replicated these days.
I think it’s a synthesizer. Early 80s was big on synths and new digital synths like the Yamaha DX7 were used heavily in music production of that era. Mallet type sounds are easy to make and sound good on analog and digital synths. On this recording it sounds like a synth to me.
Damn! I will always love :” LAUPER THE BOPPER!”Even hearing Homer Simpson sing this song is awesome
timeless!! this song will NEVER get old. Great reaction.
Love the “Conehead” bouncing up and down in the video at 5:08 - 5:12, hilarious!
Brad yes you are right the 80s were fun. Great time to be a teenager that's for sure
I have a story for everything. I had a '01 Pontiac Trans-Am WS6 with a Monsoon stereo system. This is equivalent to a Bang & Olfeson system today. I had T-tops off, nearly a Targa or GTS. I played this cranked going down Main Street 20 years ago. Because boys want to have fun and watch pedestrians. But, Cyndi was fun, touching and introspective. She was very popular in the '80's. Still a great singer.
There are some songs out there that always make you smile. This is one of them.
Back when music was music with true talented musicians and real instrumentals…where those days gone???
This is just one of those songs that just makes you happy.
I remember all the Lisa Frank notebooks, folders , stickers, Lex! Spot on association, lol. Love this song and love y'all's reactions
her dad in video was old famous wrestler Captain Lou Albano .. hes like from 70s 80 era of wrestling. I had my picture taken with him and the Iron Shiek in Atlanta Georgia at Dragon Con Event in 2007. or some where around then.
This was either 83 or 84. Cyndi was huge! Icon. Man this song came out every girl was singing this! Lol
She has an amazing voice.
She had a 4 octave vocal range. That is incredible.
Cyndi's voice is really the style of the "Power singer"...Top of your lungs, and let it out! The crazy noises :Lex is talking about is actually wood percussion blocks with a LOT of studio EQ and echo. (recording engineers where wizards of thier craft-- Back then, every label had an ace or two working the control room..That's why they got producer credit on every record).
xylophone
She was great live at 70 years old still rockin.. or close to seventy.. lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌸
This song was so big I actually has it in my head so clear I wondered if a radio was on one time making me think I was going insane at hockey practice at 12 years old.
Just found this channel and already can’t get enough of, lex’s incredible smile, laugh and the noises she makes when bopping. You’re both really funny. Greetings from England
ikr😂😁
She did a Thanksgiving special on TV in 1985 as a guest of - ready? - Patti LaBelle. It's on youtube, and you guys have to watch it. To hear these two women, with their two voices, singing together is out of this world.
Brad, you are right on. The 80's were the absolute best!! How lucky we were. I was in like 9th grade when this came out.
When it first came out this was my favorite songs, boy does it take me back in time.
She's amazing! I adore her!
I was in my early 20’s in the 80’s. There was never, ever a better time to be alive. Sssooo many great memories of hanging out with friends at the club, the beach, and each other’s houses. And the music was so different and so much fun. I mean, we had MJ, Prince, Springsteen, Billy Joel, and all the new British acts. Just a wonderful time. You guys definitely missed out.
She Bop Music video from Cyndi Lauper deserves a reaction. Another popular 80's hit from her discography. She Bop is a favorite of mine and the music video is so over the top in a good way... Entertaining!
80s were a blast. I want to go back and stay there. Today's time really sux to the max!!!!
If the '80's were about having Fun...this some wraps it up and ties it with a funky hair bow! 🥰😉😄 #xylophone #hiccup #ohdaddydear #fun ✨
80's were amazing! We look back now and wonder how we survive some of the crazy stuff we did. We'd go back and do it all over again 😂
It's so fun to watch you having fun watching this
It's said she would hit every resale shop looking for clothes and hats for public and video viewing. A very different sense of fashion that caught on with the public. She also in later years starred as a psychic medium on the tv show Bones.
40 years ago when CD's first came out, it was this album I bought first. Still have it.
In a way, she did something similar in the 80's to what Lady Gaga did. She decided to go completely goof-ball and off-the-wall. After her success, she decided she wanted to do some more "adult" (regular adult, not sexy adult) singing, and it's very different.
