Free Music Notes for Essential Cyndi Lauper
Free Music Review: What I Remember.
Hit: 5 Stars
Most of my childhood was spent in the 1980s. I remember MTV when the music videos were largely nothing more than cheap backgrounds with the singers standing in front. I do remember that besides Madonna, Cyndi Lauper was one of the truly rememberable artist and one that used MTV and other new mediums to advance her career. I also remember that Cyndi Lauper showed up a lot on the WWF and that she had one of the few (though probably one of the best at the time) music videos I had ever seen on MTV, singing the song "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" from THE GOONIES.With that said, I have to admit that I'm not a huge fan of Cyndi Lauper. Nevertheless, she did make some really memorable songs that I remember from hearing from my childhood and this is the first album that contains all of them. My favorite songs on this album are:
"Girls Just Want to Have Fun"
"Money Changes Everything"
"Time After Time"
"True Colors"
"The Goonies 'R' Good Enough"
"Time After Time" and "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" were songs that I've been looking to have as part of my music collection for a long time and they are the reason I bought the album. Nevertheless, the other tunes on Essential are almost as good to listen to and make the investment more valuable. I've been told by Lauper fans that there are a few missing titles that should be on the album, but since I'm not a huge fan, The Essential Cyndi Lauper 'r' good enough for me.
Free Music Review: THE BEST YOU CAN BUY IN COMPILATION FORM
Hit: 5 Stars
A little bit of autorreference here:
I'm a progressive metal freak.Why do i like Cyndi's songs being that they are so simple? Cause the melodies are beautiful, the chorus majestic-like and Cyndi's performances blows me and other so-called divas out of the water.What a great tone, power, emotion and range this girl has!
Having said that, this is the best compilation of Cyndi available and it makes a great introduction to his body of work.I for once will delve much deeper into her catalog.For example: Shine is a song i really love and it's not here, so surely in the end i will have to buy all her records! I mean, let's be real:it's impossible that a compilation makes everyone happy about the tracklist.
Bottom line: this compilation is the best in the market.If you like it, search for more in her albums.
Free Music Review: Essential Cyndi Lauper
Hit: 5 Stars
Cyndi Lauper became one of the most well-known singers of the 80's. If it weren't for Madonna she would have become huge. Lauper's original style will evoke memories of the 80's for those living in that era. These songs have a classic and magical style to them that gets better with each listen. Lauper's vocals are not for everyone. For some they may be irritating but for others comforting. Her powerful vocal range makes Madonna's vocals pale in comparison. She can sing ballads as well as up-tempo 80's pop songs. Co-writing every song on this album she proves to the public that she is a respected artist for the most part. In 2008 she released a new album called "Bring Ya To The Brink" which is the style of dance-pop.Free Music Review: Great collection!
Hit: 5 Stars
I love this collection. I'm more of a hard rock fan but this stuff brings back some great 80's memories. Time after time and True colors reminds me of high school and the girl friend and friends I had then that have all since moved away or just lost touch. Great music like this moves us to reflect and think. Some of it makes me sad but good music does that.
Also, I like to support artists who are cool and not too full of themselves...Cindy seems like a cool chick to hang out with.
If you love good music-get this cd.
Free Music Review: A good album to have for fans of 80's pop
Hit: 5 Stars
Cindy Laupers brand of pop/new wave/punk rock and her taking of the late 70's punk look and remarketing it for a mass audience took the world by storm in the 1980's.
This album puts together some of the best of her talent.
It includes the female anthem Girls Just Want To Have Fun, the funky She Bop, the inspiring and heartwarming Time After Time, the rocker I Drove All Night, the contemplative True Colours, and the offbeat The Goonies 'R' Good Enough.
A good album to have for fans of 80's pop.
