    Tears for Fears Early YearsTears for Fears~

    Remember them?

    Oh man they were great.

    tears for fears 2009Man, when I think of them, it’s like

    a time warp back to the 80s. I heard they broke up

    for a while, but got back together in 2000

    Nice!!

    This song brings back memories of slumber parties and Friday Night Videos we’d try and stay up late to watch.

  • THEN AND NOW THURSDAYS


    Remember Cyndi Lauper? I first remember her from the movie Goonies. Yeah, that sweet theme song…LOL. And Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. She was a unique bird back then, wasn’t she?

    Oh, but she can sing.

    Cindy Lauper 1980Remember the long red hair?

    The colorful eye make-up

    She had a unique way of dancing, didn’t she?

    Cyndi Lauper 2009Then when she showed up

    on American Idol last week

    I saw she can still sting,

    and she looks great!

    Boy oh how she’s changed.

    Cyndi Lauper 2008

    What’s your favorite Cyndi Lauper song?

    I’d have to say mine is “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.”

    Cars, by Gary Numan

    The song was actually ahead of its time. It brought in the new wave music in the 80s because it was all synthesizers, with the exception of the drums. That hadn’t really happened much until then.

    I mean, no guitar, no bass guitar, just some drums and a robotic sounding voice….Cool.
