      Cyndi is amazing. She is a Grammy winner. Unlike Madonna who released their first album within a few months of each other in 1984, Cyndi wasn’t ever commercialized, she wrote all of her own music and lyrics! If you’ve ever watched “we are the world” she is in that and sounds great. BTW, please watch that if you haven’t! Also “true colors“ is by far another amazing song you have to hear. 🤍💗 Cyndi! Thank you, Brit!

    LOL: your "Noo Yoiker" impression was spot-on.🤣
    The instrument she's playing is an Appalachian Dulcimer. The"party" song that made her famous was "Girls Just Want To have Fun". Time After Time and True Colours were so different from it that I think people (and record company marketing guys) got confused and didn't know which pigeon hole to put her in, to the detriment of her career.

    Seeing Cyndi perform live is an amazing experience. Her voice is SO strong and versatile, and her range is insane. She is better live even than she is on record. She also plays quite a few instruments. People thought she was a joke when she first came out because of how she speaks, but people took notice when that voice came out of her. She is starting her final retirement tour soon, and I will see her in November.

    Cindy has serious pipes. This version of the song, as beautiful as it is doesn't even approach what Cindy can do with her voice.
    Regardless of what you said, I will recommend another version of this song. Its Cyndi singing a live duet with Miss Patti LaBelle from 1985 I think (they've performed this song together several times through the years, I'm referring to their first time doing it). Its one of the most powerful vocal performances I've ever experienced.

    A dulcimer... Always, way back, thought she was kind of a nut. Who ain't. Right ? Over the years I've come to understand she's actually very talented. Girls just wanna have fun. Anyway ,Brit , if I may, thank you , she's also a great human. Continue please...

    A must see, Cyndi Lauper and Patti LaBelle performing 'Time after Time's in 1985 on Patti LaBelle Show. True Colors another great song, and one of my favorite songs by her and the music video is my favorite from all Cyndi videos.

    One of the great songwriters and performers of her generation (and since) - and no cover will ever match the understanding that comes with actually creating a melody.

    The ancient origins of the dulcimer are undoubtedly in the Near East, where instruments of this type have been made and played for perhaps 5000 years. Santir and psanterim were names early applied to such instruments and are probably derived from the Greek psalterion. All the best from England.

    Man I am old, it boggles my mind that anyone would not immediately know this song was Cyndi's originally lol, guess that is a given growing up in the 80s, you couldnt avoid this song if you wanted to, and who would;) Such an underutilized talent, I wish they would of let her really show her true voice back in the day, I am so glad we get it now.

    This was the first vinyl album I ever owned. The whole album is great! Ms. Lauper is an absolute original. There is no one like her anywhere. She has one of those voices that you just learn to recognize and is well worth listening to if you aren't familiar with her work.

    A dulcimer is the instument she's playing. The gentleman mentioned it at the beginning of the film clip. It's in the zither family and mainly from the Appalachian mountains. The song you're trying to think of is "Girls Just Want to Have Fun".

    The instrument in question is an autoharp. Press a button to get a chord and strum it like a guitar.

    Yes, this version is very different from her studio version of it. My band covers it, but it's more true to the original.

    Cyndi is playing the dulcimer. There are two beautiful versions of Cyndi doing Time After Time with Patti LaBelle. I think you would love them. Cyndi is playing the dulcimer again for the performance in the second link.

    My little sister who was born in 1985 when Cyndi Lauper was big is also named Cyndi supposedly after the singer. Flash forward a few years later we find out her dad picked the name because it was the name of the woman he was cheating on my mom with. It's a running joke in my family now but I'm sure it pissed my mom off to no end when she found out her daughter was named after the side piece lol.
