Cyndi Lauper

Cyndi Lauper is an icon... When I was young I remember stealing my older sister's "She's So Unusual" cassette tape to rock out to "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" and all the other upbeat, empowering pop songs on this memorable debut album. I felt so cool and grown-up. I may have also “borrowed” some of my sister’s clothes, but let’s not tell her about that! Decades later, I own my own copy of the album on iTunes, but not much else has changed. I still envy all her cool funky outfits and admire her relentless determination to be her uncompromising and inspirational self. In concert, Cyndi Lauper has not missed a beat. I saw her for the first time touring with Deborah Harry from Blondie and it turned out to be the best girls’ night ever!!! Lauper performs all her best hits, puts on a great show, and provides fun and on-point audience interaction. You will end the night feeling great about life, carefree, and ready to embrace every opportunity that life may throw at you to “just wanna have fun.” Cyndi Lauper is a great role model for girls of any age. Though her fun pop style and uncanny high notes may draw you in, her personal stories, deeper songs, obvious humility and kindness, and personal dedication to many and varied causes will earn your following long-term.

Cynthia Ann Stephanie Lauper has one of those universally recognisable stage names that spans countries and generations all at once. The record breaking songstress injected some much needed angst and rock into the modern pop charts and was seen as something very different during the time of her breakthrough. With ten albums in her discography and 50 million records sold, designing a career defining setlist is no easy feat for Lauper yet her fans are receptive to most material played this evening.

Her evocative stage persona and passion for performance is really inspiring for younger artists. During a large amount of the show you forget that Cyndi is actually now in her 60s yet still demonstrates the power and abilities of a performer half her age. She clearly wants the fans to have the best night when coming to watch her perform so throws herself into renditions of mega-hits such as 'I Drove All Night' and the timeless 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun' which of course brings the house down. She is an admirable performer and a true figure in female empowerment within the music industry.

I saw Cyndi open for Cher at Valley View Casino Center, incredible job Lucky to have a strong talent like Cyndi as an opener. She sang old and new songs, her voice was as strong as ever. She entered through the crowd singing SHE BOB, with "TEAM LAUPER" following her to the stage. Money Changes everything is always a favorite of mne and she sang it. Also sang her new kit frm Kinky Boots, The Sex is in the Heel. A treat !! From bring ya to the Brink, she sand Into the Nightlife !! First time to hear that live !! She finished with AT LAST ! what a warmup she gave for CHER !!

Cyndi can do it all! Great venue and wonderful sound. She acknowledged the Orlando tradgedy then did an amazing show, which was exactly what we needed. The mix of classics and country was a perfect balance. Highlight? The entire venue singing along with "True colors" Ms. lauper being presented with a rainbow flag and wrapping it around herself like a blanket. We love you Cyndi and thank you a bit of a relief from the hard parts of life.

Seen her open last night for Rod Stewart at Tinley Park, IL. She's absolutely phenomenal. She looks and sings as good as ever and great performer. Her band is fantastic. Great story teller and she's funny too. Rod Stewart has always been great but finally got to see prob the most talented performer from the 80s era of music and she and her band did not hesitate to deliver. Love ya Cyndi.

Boy George was excellent. He has a surprisingly powerful voice, great stage presence and a dozen people backing him up. Jean Genie a real treat cover as was Get it On. Cyndi needs to shut up and sing. Singing voice great, speaking voice grates. Long stories and rants a bore. Rosie is still just bitter and angry. Great show over all though.

Truly disappointed. If you want to experience a political rally with someone telling you how to think (with a bit of music mixed in) then this is the show for you !

Big speech, followed by song, then MORE politics, song, etc... many people saying same thing...we went to see concert & enjoy, instead we get political rally...

Was a stunning show at Horncastle Arena in Christchurch apart from one thing. I was HIGHLY disappointed there were no big screens up and running and the ONE screen that was going on stage behind Cyndi was not even of her! It was a scenery backdrop. Nearly every person I spoke to said the same thing. No one could see her!!!

Cyndi Lauper was amazing!!!! Her voice was beautiful, she could hold a note like you wouldn’t believe. Lots of energy and she looked fantastic!! Loved that she played recorder and sitar. The crowd really was into her. She came out to sing a duet with Rod Stewart on It Takes Two which was really a nice touch. Love her!

What a talent. I recently saw Cyndi Lauper at the Hollywood Bowl and she was phenomenal. The voice! she still has an amazing voice, she gives the audience bits of wisdom throughout the show and plays all her hits. Hearing "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" backed by an orchestra was delightful. 10/10 would recommend.
