She's So Unusual was the first album I ever bough. I must've been six, maybe 7 years old at the time. And it was a cassette. With Side A and Side B. True Colors, She Bops, Time After Time, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - ah, the 80's were good, simpler times. I miss them. I'd trade all of the internet to have the 80's back.
this was the closest this show has come to making me cry! True colors... I saw Cyndi at the true colors tour when it came to Detroit. She was amazing, she really went into the crowd and sang to the crowd. She is such a wonderful person. People say she's just plugging her album, but she really is genuine.
Cyndi singing on this show is the most beautiful thing I've seen in a long time. If she sang true colors to me like that I'd have a hard time not crying.
Thanks alot, writers. The second Noah and Luke get along, you toss in more needless angst and drama. Can we ever just see these two happy for one episode?? :(
True colours is amazing! And Luke is hurt so many times but still can forgive... That's amazing... Just imagine if you got hurt like that.. If it was me Noah would be pretty much dead...
I can't get over how great Van's acting was during True Colors! Totally moving. I was giddy all weekend just thinking about it. ;-) Keep up the good work, Van! And thank you, Andy, for posting. :-)
Goddamn this storyline really takes you all over the place. When Cyndi was singing True Colours and they had the scene together afterwards it was just awesome - and then they ripped it all apart again - jeez I'm a wreck!!!!!
Watching Cindi sing True Colours brought tears to my eyes. True Colours is one of my favourite songs ever! Noah joining the army? Wow, that came out of no where. I'm not liking where this is going.
Haha, I must be the only one who almost expected Noah to say he can't go home with Luke because he.. well y'know, CAN'T... if you catch my drift. Heh, I need to get my mind out of the gutter. Thanks for the video, LukeVanFan.
Luke: "Why can't you feel that way with me?" YES, NOAH. PLEASE TELL US. WHY THE F@#$! can't you just FEEL THAT WAY WITH LUKE?>! argh. why must he always separate himself from Luke when things get tough?!
hmm I just checked Cyndi's tourdates. There's just one(!) concert in Germany, which is already sold out, and on the same date I already have tickets for Emilie Autumn who made a fantastic new version of "Girls just wanna have fun". Coincidence or what?
Luke's face breaks my heart. He's trying to hide his sadness but isn't succeeding. Van is awesome at that! I love when they say "True Colors is totally our song now" fast-forward ten years to Luke and Noah walking down the aisle to this song. Last of all, what's the deal with Tony? Noah says he wants to go somewhere else, they leave, then suddenly Noah's back and Tony is nowhere to be found. Maybe Noah shot him like Col. psycho did Dusty and Tony's off somewhere taking 8 days to die.
I find it absolutely hilarious that, with half of the Snyder family constantly living at the farm at any given time, there can be nobody there for even a night.
Cyndi Lauper is my new favorite person! And what's with Noah's "I can see clarly now my father's gone. And yet he's still getting in my way!" I mean seriously!
Yeah that was a great performance by Cyndi Lauper. Also I'm here to support with whatever Noah thinks is best for him and that's why I love him always.
The amazing Cindi's song playing together with the sad and beautiful face of Luke broke my heart. Why Noah can't "feel secure" with a stand up guy like Luke? Why He wants to enlist the army (hello! "don't ask don't tell" crap: you are gay, Noah!) Urgent note to the writers: Please, Please, don't give up on Nuke!!!!
ya, know, everyone is hating Noah, but if you think about it, it kinda fits. Noah was under his father's influence for a long time and the last thing I want to see is Noah become dependent on Luke for purpose and happiness. And, personal feelings aside about current military operations, I've seen the military make some great, positive changes to a few of my (gay & straight) friends. This is going to be good for Noah, and Luke needs to stop being scared that Noah is going to change in the army
omg this episode killed me, i have completely shut off all communication witth the outside world, stopped doing homework.. i am such a fan... omg omg omg...
don't be discourge van keep on doing what you are best for, a role model to everyone who just loves each other no matter what they are, thank you van hansis, great acting man and that will always be the comment you will always have:) from everyone who loves your True colors!
This is all I WANT sometimes:for these boys to be together,live together sometimes kiss,sometimes make each other jealous sometimes Luke to be a drama queen,sometimes Noah to wear the trousers....:-))
Besides, Soaps tend to create the most drama they can before finally allowing them to make up for good. After all, think about the fight Luke will make, and the struggle Noah will have. Maybe he'll finally get over his father because he comes to terms with it ON HIS OWN by almost enlisting. This will solve a problem plus make the reunion that much sweeter! I hate it too, but it's not for long at all and remember, Noah enlisted BEFORE making up with Luke. Poor Luke, Poor Noah, but it'll be better
5:00 AWWWW HUGZ. I luvv how close Cyndi gets with her fans. It's soo sweeet. :)) 5:10 I love how that song got to Noah and he realized how important Luke is to him and in his life and if he doesn't step up now he might lose him. I'm so glad he did. This is beautiful. I'll forever think Nuke when I hear this song now.
lmfao Noah really loves his mind games I swear gah! "The one I want is you" wait for it...and BOOM drops yet another bomb. Can't say I didn't expect it. Although for that few minutes I thought FINALLY!
The problem is with how this was written - Noah tells Luke they should get back together, which gives Luke the illusion that everything is alright and makes him happy for 5 minutes, then Noah reveals he's enlisted. That was really stupid - Noah should have immediately said he's leaving. That said, I don't really blame Noah for what he did. Yes, it was a stupid decision that was wrong for him, and luckily he backed out in time - but he was just messed up and hurting after his dad died.
@RiboflavinB2 Ugh. That's why I always try to watch the episodes in the afternoon -I'm especially happy I did that for yesterday's episode because it wasn't that dark at all. By the way, that literary reference -Great Expectations? That's the only Mrs. Havisham I know:D
I wish they had prolonged the luke and noah breaking up thing. It would be nice to see a realistic depiction of what people go through after breaking up.
O.O...this feels like it happened a million years ago, though I just watched it two hours ago. This can't be happening, Andy, please tell me this isn't happening?
I just can't stop watching this show. I mean, yeah, these tragedies and break-ups are what keep people watching, but I just can't help but feel sorry for Luke. I mean, I'm so like him. In any aspect, even for falling for the wrong guy, a messed up guy and standing by him for so long to just end up being pushed away. It just kills inside. And Noah's being a Jackass XD
Blame the writers, not the character. If Noah got to make his own decisions, none of this, none of Reid, *none* of it, would have happened. I remind myself constantly of the soap opera urge to create drama, to keep the audience, so that I can live with my favourite characters acting irrationally or OOC.
OMG this was the first episode i ever saw too! I spent the whole weekend before it watching every part of luke and noahs story. (and most of lukes) And I love Cyndi! so great that shes such a supporter of GLBT rights.
Hell's bells! Why bother making up with Luke if Noah's enlisted? In 2008, DADT was still in effect, so he won't be able to live openly. I can certainly understand his desire for structure, but at what cost? What does he expect Luke to do now?
This made me tear up a bit. It made me feel really sad :( Poor Luke. BTW: This is totally off topic, and might make some people PO'd for a unrelated subject change, but in the dark they all look like Batman :D. That put an interesting spin on things. Noah *: All I want is you, I see that now.*makes out with Luke and they get back together for about a milisecond -5minuets later* :Oh, yeah BTW I enlisted in the army." WTF NOAH?!
EEEEEFFFFFFFFFFFF THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EEEEEEEEEFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! What an emotional roller coaster...tears of happiness...then yelling WTF???? NOOOOOOOOO!!!
I love how Cyndi comes and put together my favourite couples after a break up ^_^ like she did in "Queer As Folk"
The way Noah says, "Is this" just sends a shiver throughout my whole body. But still, Noah get your head on straight!!!
I love when she sings True Colors and they go back and forth between Luke and Noah
She's So Unusual was the first album I ever bough. I must've been six, maybe 7 years old at the time. And it was a cassette. With Side A and Side B. True Colors, She Bops, Time After Time, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - ah, the 80's were good, simpler times. I miss them. I'd trade all of the internet to have the 80's back.
Luke needed this love and attention from someone so much.This was a lovely idea with Cyndi.
this was the closest this show has come to making me cry! True colors... I saw Cyndi at the true colors tour when it came to Detroit. She was amazing, she really went into the crowd and sang to the crowd. She is such a wonderful person. People say she's just plugging her album, but she really is genuine.
Cyndi singing on this show is the most beautiful thing I've seen in a long time. If she sang true colors to me like that I'd have a hard time not crying.
I find Luke so sweet at 6:40 when he puts his fists on Noah's chest. This is so natural, I can't stop watching it.
Ugghhhhhh I feel like this plot is just one horrible event after another with like one moment of them actually having a stable relationship inbetween.
Pretty much
12 years later this still makes me tear up!!
My heart SANK when Noah said "I enlisted in the army"
Damn it Noah! He is always f**cking up with poor baby Luke
True Colors. I really needed to hear that today. Thank you Cyndi Lauper and ATWT.
Like what the hell noah u just got back together with and u gonna mess it up again really noah really !!!#really
I hate the writers of this show. They really have no clue what they are doing. It's one brick throne at then after another brick, it never stops.
Thanks alot, writers. The second Noah and Luke get along, you toss in more needless angst and drama. Can we ever just see these two happy for one episode?? :(
true colours is one of the most beautiful songs ii've ever heard
i don't know why but i always start to cry when i watch this episode... come on NUKE
OH my god when i heard noah say the whole thing how he wanted luke after the amazing true colors song and they kissed i was like "FINALLY THANK YOU!"
True colours is amazing! And Luke is hurt so many times but still can forgive... That's amazing... Just imagine if you got hurt like that.. If it was me Noah would be pretty much dead...
TRUE COLOURS 1 of my fav. songs
this is a good show for me and it is so good and awesome because of Luke and Noah
That was a pretty AWSOME kiss...
I so love Cyndi. No matter how many times I hear 'True Colors' it brings me back to the first time.
I can't get over how great Van's acting was during True Colors! Totally moving. I was giddy all weekend just thinking about it. ;-) Keep up the good work, Van! And thank you, Andy, for posting. :-)
The magic of the blue shirt has done it again! :D
Goddamn this storyline really takes you all over the place.
When Cyndi was singing True Colours and they had the scene together afterwards it was just awesome - and then they ripped it all apart again - jeez I'm a wreck!!!!!
at 0:38 Tony thought he was about to get the "D", too bad dude. I feel your pain LOL
Watching Cindi sing True Colours brought tears to my eyes. True Colours is one of my favourite songs ever! Noah joining the army? Wow, that came out of no where. I'm not liking where this is going.
Haha, I must be the only one who almost expected Noah to say he can't go home with Luke because he.. well y'know, CAN'T... if you catch my drift. Heh, I need to get my mind out of the gutter.
Thanks for the video, LukeVanFan.
Luke: "Why can't you feel that way with me?"
YES, NOAH. PLEASE TELL US.
WHY THE F@#$! can't you just FEEL THAT WAY WITH LUKE?>!
argh. why must he always separate himself from Luke when things get tough?!
hmm I just checked Cyndi's tourdates. There's just one(!) concert in Germany, which is already sold out, and on the same date I already have tickets for Emilie Autumn who made a fantastic new version of "Girls just wanna have fun". Coincidence or what?
that song... Noah and luke AWW this was so amazing
luke looked like he was gonna start crying any minute as cyndi was was singing true colors to him...sooo sad!!
glad that noah picked up on it!!
Cyndi Lauper still has it. You go girl. True Colors was beautiful. *downloading*
Luke's face breaks my heart. He's trying to hide his sadness but isn't succeeding. Van is awesome at that!
I love when they say "True Colors is totally our song now" fast-forward ten years to Luke and Noah walking down the aisle to this song.
Last of all, what's the deal with Tony? Noah says he wants to go somewhere else, they leave, then suddenly Noah's back and Tony is nowhere to be found. Maybe Noah shot him like Col. psycho did Dusty and Tony's off somewhere taking 8 days to die.
Wonderful message, wonderful song, wonderful voice.
OMG! I love that song!!!!!!! "Your true colors are beautiful like a rainbow" Very appropriate for the ocassion.
I find it absolutely hilarious that, with half of the Snyder family constantly living at the farm at any given time, there can be nobody there for even a night.
Cyndi Lauper is my new favorite person! And what's with Noah's "I can see clarly now my father's gone. And yet he's still getting in my way!" I mean seriously!
Yeah that was a great performance by Cyndi Lauper. Also I'm here to support with whatever Noah thinks is best for him and that's why I love him always.
@jakeandnoah a goldmine.
The amazing Cindi's song playing together with the sad and beautiful face of Luke broke my heart. Why Noah can't "feel secure" with a stand up guy like Luke? Why He wants to enlist the army (hello! "don't ask don't tell" crap: you are gay, Noah!) Urgent note to the writers: Please, Please, don't give up on Nuke!!!!
tears, crying....OMG I have not cried in LITERALLY 3 years until now...this series / storyline is having such a positive effect on me
Cyndi is amazing!! I love her!!! And in the last video, she was so sweet and funny when she was talking to Luke! lol. I loved it!!
ya, know, everyone is hating Noah, but if you think about it, it kinda fits. Noah was under his father's influence for a long time and the last thing I want to see is Noah become dependent on Luke for purpose and happiness. And, personal feelings aside about current military operations, I've seen the military make some great, positive changes to a few of my (gay & straight) friends.
This is going to be good for Noah, and Luke needs to stop being scared that Noah is going to change in the army
omg this episode killed me, i have completely shut off all communication witth the outside world, stopped doing homework.. i am such a fan... omg omg omg...
Gotta' ask: What is it that Noah says to Tony just before they go outside? I can't make out his words over the noise of the crowd.
I never thought Cindi could make me cry, hehehe, but that song is awesome
The last part of that song is magical, it makes me cry every time, not because of Noah and Luke but because of the power in her vocals, just amazing.
This wonderful song by Cindy Lauper is like it's been written for Luke and Noah!!!
Thank you so much, Cindy!!!
Noah enlisting? That totally shocked me.
that was so romantic when luke said that he wanted noah to go home with him...
"DON'T BE AFRAID"!! the song lyrics catch my attention ... i mean, i cried hard! i want them to go back luke and noah!!
Noah, you're breaking Luke's heart.
You're tearing him to pieces.
Don't you dare go through with this.
You'd be insane.
Go Cyndi!
don't be discourge van keep on doing what you are best for, a role model to everyone who just loves each other no matter what they are, thank you van hansis, great acting man and that will always be the comment you will always have:) from everyone who loves your True colors!
Noah's little embarrassed fake run in front of Cindy was SO cute!
This is all I WANT sometimes:for these boys to be together,live together sometimes kiss,sometimes make each other jealous sometimes Luke to be a drama queen,sometimes Noah to wear the trousers....:-))
Besides, Soaps tend to create the most drama they can before finally allowing them to make up for good. After all, think about the fight Luke will make, and the struggle Noah will have.

This is beautiful. I'll forever think Nuke when I hear this song now.
It feels like a bucket of iced water was poured all over me when Noah said that he enlisted in the army.
I wish my crush would show his true colors and feelings and just it out... beautiful voice Cindi..
Noah is tearing Luke's heart apart :(
What is this song? The begin of episode?Not the True Colors...another song by Cyndi...
lmfao Noah really loves his mind games I swear gah! "The one I want is you" wait for it...and BOOM drops yet another bomb. Can't say I didn't expect it. Although for that few minutes I thought FINALLY!
I love this so much. Love Cyndi's songs. And the kiss. SQUEAL! But the bomb-D'oh! What exactly did Noah expect? Does he want Luke to wait for him?
True Colors
At the start of this episode I was like Luke honey, you are stalking him again.. ;) hahaha
I think Cindy is one ageless angel.:-)Keeping it gay makes us fly like there is no weight.:-)
The problem is with how this was written - Noah tells Luke they should get back together, which gives Luke the illusion that everything is alright and makes him happy for 5 minutes, then Noah reveals he's enlisted. That was really stupid - Noah should have immediately said he's leaving.
That said, I don't really blame Noah for what he did. Yes, it was a stupid decision that was wrong for him, and luckily he backed out in time - but he was just messed up and hurting after his dad died.
What are you talking about? They were on break for like 2 weeks back in June. It felt like FOREVER, then came the September Noah drought...
I've had two friends over time pull this surprise enlist thing...and for the same reasons Noah did. They regretted it.
that top looks so good on Van
@RiboflavinB2
Ugh. That's why I always try to watch the episodes in the afternoon -I'm especially happy I did that for yesterday's episode because it wasn't that dark at all.
By the way, that literary reference -Great Expectations? That's the only Mrs. Havisham I know:D
I will now forever connect Glee with As The World Turns
I wish they had prolonged the luke and noah breaking up thing. It would be nice to see a realistic depiction of what people go through after breaking up.
O.O...this feels like it happened a million years ago, though I just watched it two hours ago. This can't be happening, Andy, please tell me this isn't happening?
omg i did not expect that, NOAH WHAT ARE YOU DOING STAY WITH LUKE
I just can't stop watching this show. I mean, yeah, these tragedies and break-ups are what keep people watching, but I just can't help but feel sorry for Luke.
I mean, I'm so like him. In any aspect, even for falling for the wrong guy, a messed up guy and standing by him for so long to just end up being pushed away. It just kills inside. And Noah's being a Jackass XD
Some of us are old enough to remember when True Colors topped the charts during our high school years--yikes--Cyndi always rocks!
i don't know but this episode must be the craziest ever!!
5:45 'All I want, is this..' OH MY GAWD!!
i was expecting luke to start singing with cyndi the entire time
Blame the writers, not the character. If Noah got to make his own decisions, none of this, none of Reid, *none* of it, would have happened. I remind myself constantly of the soap opera urge to create drama, to keep the audience, so that I can live with my favourite characters acting irrationally or OOC.
Ok, who else cried? I will always think of Nuke when I hear this song from now on.
I was in there for over six years, went to Iraq/Kuwait etc.
OMG this was the first episode i ever saw too!
I spent the whole weekend before it watching every part of luke and noahs story. (and most of lukes)
And I love Cyndi! so great that shes such a supporter of GLBT rights.
Hell's bells! Why bother making up with Luke if Noah's enlisted? In 2008, DADT was still in effect, so he won't be able to live openly. I can certainly understand his desire for structure, but at what cost? What does he expect Luke to do now?
Love your personal comment.Thank you for sharing.
I love Cindi Lauper! I love her voice n how her songs impact people (of any type). She is amazing.
Thank both of you. the 2 of you are right, I checked the songs. it's bcoz she sang two songs
i have to watch this show soley in my room because i was screaming at the tv once.. insults of course lol ;D
love love love this song
omg, I forgot how much i loved true colors!
Did anyone else cry hearing Cyndi Lauper sing "True Colours" ?
0:50 awww Luke. :) Shoutout from Miss Lauper ...sadly, I think he's only thinking more of Noah
Cyndie thanks !!!!!! Love ya you have bring them to gether. You rock girl !!!!
I just fell to pieces... ugh.
I love Cyndi
she's making everything for put them back together
That was unexpected! They kissed and reconciled now he's enlisted in the army? Gimme a break!!
This made me tear up a bit. It made me feel really sad :( Poor Luke. BTW: This is totally off topic, and might make some people PO'd for a unrelated subject change, but in the dark they all look like Batman :D.
That put an interesting spin on things.
Noah *: All I want is you, I see that now.*makes out with Luke and they get back together for about a milisecond -5minuets later* :Oh, yeah BTW I enlisted in the army." WTF NOAH?!
EEEEEFFFFFFFFFFFF THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EEEEEEEEEFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What an emotional roller coaster...tears of happiness...then yelling WTF???? NOOOOOOOOO!!!
