• Throwback Thursday…True Colors


    So, it seems the Sappy Movie Quotes I posted yesterday put me in a mood, because I’m throwing you back to the 80s with a sappy song. . .

    I was pretty young when this came out, but something about it really struck me.

    Mostly because it talks about being able to show your true self to someone…and they’ll still stick by you.

    These are my favorite lyrics:

    So don’t be afraid to let them show

    Your true colors

    True colors are beautiful

    Like a rainbow...

    True Colors, by Cyndi Lauper

    Easier said than done, sometimes…

    Because when my true colors come out, it usually means there’s trouble nearby….

  • Debate This . . . Cyndi Lauper vs Lady Gaga


    Debate This is all about voicing your opinion on really important things, such as Pepsi Vs. Coke, Nike Vs. Converse, and Twinkies Vs. Ho-Hos. **smile** Okay, so maybe they’re not super important, but they’re at least fun things to jaw about. . . .

    Be sure to cast your vote on the poll below. I’ll share the results later. . . .

    Okay, I broke out the big ones for this post.

    Cyndi Vs Gaga

    Both talented ladies, no doubt.

    They’ve been compared before, and I’ve even heard a rumor that Lauper impacted Lady Gaga’s music.

    I can totally see it.

    But…..

    what do you think?

    Okay, Cyndi Lauper is just awesome, you know? Classic 80s back then with the funky hair, crazy dressing . . . But she’s got a voice! That movie, though, what a classic. I watch that any time it’s on TV. Such a cute story.

    So, are you a Goonie?

  • 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.

    What’s your favorite Cyndi Lauper song?

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