I have long Lauper fan and actually have everything in my collection, which Cyndi did so. Including more unknown. In this album I've thought long because I am basically not a fan of covers. Mostly these are, in my view, just a boring to poor imitation of the original. Now I'm going to have more than glad, but decided on the album, because that's what I can not stand, Cindy has not done. Every song is interpreted differently than the original and does therefore somehow also did not claim to compete on the original. It's actually sometimes more so than one would sit and listen, as in the kitchen by the way times sings differently their favorite hits with Cindy at home. Only that still hold a lot of people live with her with instruments. ;)
I hear the album now quite often because I actually find it suitable for any occasion. May recommend to it, I think, not to people who expect reconstructed at a cover version the original in every detail, and constantly only think while listening to it. And one should first at least two or three times to hear, because it takes a while before you get used to this new type of cover versions.
