在車上聽到她的歌“Time After Time”是那麼地熟悉,感覺似乎好久以前了,這首老歌是別的歌手唱另一個翻版,旋律不太一樣,回到家以後,意猶未盡,找出她的原唱曲又聽了一遍,從頭到尾還是那麼耐人尋味。
曾被選為80年代最棒的搖滾女歌手,有一頭狂野的頭髮, 而且她經常改變髮色,還把頭髮剃掉一邊。是個多才多藝的藝人,寫曲作詞、能歌善舞、又演戲。現在她的外型完全改變了,很有貴婦人樣子,也許年歲增長帶給她不少的改變。她的暢銷流行曲跟麥丹娜比較起來不相上下。
Cyndi Lauper 受歡迎的1984年發行個人第二張專輯 ~ She’s So Unusual (她不平凡)一炮而紅,成為全世界的偶像.這張專輯產生了 Time After Time, Girls Just Want To Have Fun 等多首暢銷曲,光在美國就賣出六百萬張,全世界賣出一千七百萬張,她以這張專輯獲得該年度葛萊美獎最佳新進藝人獎.
1986年推出 True Colors 專輯,這首也有用做『柯達底片』廣告曲,同名冠軍單曲已成 Cyndi Lauper 最經典的歌曲,二十年後的今天聽這首歌曲仍讓人動容不已。
此後 Cyndi Lauper 陸續推出的專輯都不若前幾張那麼成功,她也就慢慢從歌壇消失,現在的 Cyndi Lauper 除了照顧兒子 Declyn Wallace Thornton Lauper 外,偶爾還會推出新專輯,除此之外也只能在一些現場演唱地場合以嘉賓的身份獻唱幾曲了。
Cyndi Lauper 的聲音帶有歇斯底里的瘋狂,她的高音堪稱一絕,發揮在舞曲真可說是淋漓盡致.但是她唱起抒情歌曲又變成小女孩般的惹人憐愛,她的嗓音在80年代無人可出其右。 Cyndi Lauper 的造型也曾是無數少女粉絲模仿的對象,無顏六色的亂髮與厚重的濃妝再加上不按牌理出牌的混搭服飾,也使她成為80年代的流行指標人物.

You with the sad eyes
don’t be discouraged
oh I realize
it’s hard to take courage
in a world full of people
you can lose sight of it all
and the darkness inside you
can make you fell so small
But I see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that’s why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow
Show me a smile then
don’t be unhappy, can’t remember
when I last saw you laughing
if this world makes you crazy
and you’ve taken all you can bear
you call me up
because you know I’ll be there
And I’ll see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that’s why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow
You with the sad eyes
don’t be discouraged
oh I realize
it’s hard to take courage
in a world full of people
you can lose sight of it all
and the darkness inside you
can make you fell so small
But I see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that’s why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow
Show me a smile then
don’t be unhappy, can’t remember
when I last saw you laughing
if this world makes you crazy
and you’ve taken all you can bear
you call me up
because you know I’ll be there
And I’ll see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that’s why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow
Time after time

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
and think of you
caught up in circles confusion--
is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights--
almost left behind
suitcases of memories,
time after--
sometimes you picture me--
I’m walking too far ahead
you’re calling to me, I can’t hear
what you’ve said--
Then you say--go slow--
I fall behind--
the second hand unwinds
chorus:
if you’re lost you can look--and you will find me
time after time
if you fall I will catch you--I’ll be waiting
time after time
after my picture fades and darkness has
turned to gray
watching through windows--you’re wondering
if I’m OK
secrets stolen from deep inside
the drum beats out of time--
chorus:
if you’re lost...
you said go slow--
I fall behind
the second hand unwinds--
chorus:
if you’re lost...
...time after time
time after time
time after time
time after time
