Welcome to my channel! This is a music reaction channel. For the longest time, I've loved creating content on the internet. I started off with a gaming channel right here on TH-cam, which eventually turned into a Twitch gaming channel, but as time has gone on I've evolved into doing other things on TH-cam. For years now I've wanted to create a music channel on TH-cam, and recently just figured "why not?", so it’s time to give this a go! Give me any suggestion you have for music reactions, and I will do my best to get around to them. As music has fallen further out of my life, I figured this would be a great time to get reintroduced to music.

She’s such a great singer! And her style is so quirky and wonderful. I remember going down to South Padre island with my friends circa 1983-84, singing this at the top of our lungs when it came on the radio. We just wanted to have fun!
Hey, how about that? I was done at South Padre around 2 years ago 😁fun time with the fam
She is the only singer I have seen live. It was a tour for the Memphis blues album, which wasn't for me, but she played some of the hits.
Captain Lou, doing his best Dad imitation. Originally written by Robert Hazzard, yes a man. Corded phones, real old school. One of the classic video's of the 80's.
Good ol’ Captain Lou. Not only Cyndi’s music video dad, and one of the wrestling greats back in the day, but also the first live-action Mario.
I always liked this song. I Iiked her voice and singing style. But I didn't really appreciate her fully until I saw her perform live (on TV) with the Boston Pops at the July 4th celebration in 2001. I gained a whole new level of respect and appreciation for her. She's not only a great singer, but also an extremely talented performer who knows how to work a crowd.
For all those too young to know this. The falling out of the door scene near the end was inspired by the Maxx Brothers. They used that gag in two of their movies, where they packed the room with more people than they should fit, and someone opens the door for everyone to fall out of.
The song at the very beginning is called "He's So Unusual," for which Cyndi takes her album name.
I came here to say that.the marxx brothers are on a cruise ship in the smallest cabin.
Well, they’re going to need a lot more hardboiled eggs, that’s for sure.
At 2.5 years old, my son danced all over and pounded the TV when the "bubbles" swirled around. He's 42 now and still dances to this song!
I love Cyndi and her music. "True Colors" is a fave. This music is pumping happiness back into the world. Muchas gracias, amigo!
Hello again! 😊
@@mattleppard1964 Hey Matt! How goes?
True Colors should be next up!
Her "video" mother is her REAL mother.
That's what he said early on...
Also, her mother is in Time After Time video. Her manager is her boyfriend in that one, and her dance partner in this one.
Her mom, played by her mom, her dad played by wrestler Captain Lou Albano, her boyfriend played by singer Steve Forbert
This is so 80's it hurts. LOL Cyndi's voice is quite unique. When you hear her speak it's totally different from her singing voice.
Love Cyndi. Great reaction man ☘️
Fun song and video 😁
Wow, 1983. Great times here in the UK. This takes me to simpler times and I STILL love it ❤
A lot of people don't know that this is a cover written by and originally recorded by Robert Hazard in 1979.
This song came out when i was 10, and it's been my anthem ever since. ❤
This song and She Bops are two really empowering female songs off of this album. Also the scene in her room is a recreation of a Marx Brothers scene on a boat.
Hmm....I was there in the 80s. She Bop was about a girl masturbating. Is that considered female empowerment now? Weird.
When her album was released “She’s so Unusual”, I saw her in concert at Jones Beach. Such a fun show. She was climbing up onto the amps dancing her ass off. Great fun!
Seems like a real loose spirit! Love it
Love her. She's contributed so much to the music world and she's always been a great role model.
Steve Forbert plays Cyndi's boyfried. He's a great singer-songwriter and still doing it. His biggest hit is "Romeo's Tune" you should check it out as well as other he sings.
Steve Forbert is an extraordinary writer who has had a magnificent career.
I had to grab my sunglasses.
There was an 80's movie with the same name as well! Great song (and movie)! Takes me back to the good old days!! She has lots of great songs!
She can SING !!!!! I saw her with The Bangles . I have seen The Rolling Stones 15 times, Led Zeppelin, Rush etc. and Cindy is one of my favorite concerts ever !!!
So fun, every time 😅😊
Cyndi Lauper was in a rock band called the Blue Angel before she went solo.
React to her songs Time After Time, She Bop, Money Changes Everything, All Through The Night, Goonies Are Good Enough, True Colors, Change Of Heart and I Drove All Night please.
Shawn, check out "Money changes everything", "Time after time", and "True colors" by her. Or her cover of Prince's "When you were mine" 👍
Prior to her solo career she was in Blue Angel.
Always reminds me of Romie and Michelle’s High school Reunion -love that movie and this song
My late wife and I share a birthday with Cyndi, June 22nd. She always loved that fact, liked this song and especially the whoops that Cyndi let out. She would always laugh and let out a whoop of her own. "She's so Unusual" is the perfect name for an album from Cyndi! She was definitely different back in the day. Check out "Money Changes Everything" from the same album. The music video shows off more of her singing talent.
Her first band was Blue Angel, who had one album on Polydor, 1980.
Yo Jon, hope everything is going good for you man!
@@ShawnSalvadori Wishing you the same, pal. Your channel is a big success and you've earned it.
At that time Lauper, Pat Benetar, Joan Jett really kicked ass with female vocals. So good
Somewhere, there's a live version of Cydi singing her hit song "MONEY CHANGES EVERYTHING, (I think in France) " and it's truly stunning. She has so many great songs.
Y E S ! She`s an icon and so fantastic !!! I love her music and incredible, brilliant voice. Greets from Germany 🥰
Cyndi is a great singer.
this was in heavy rotation on MTV when it came out (back when they actually played music videos 24/7). another great cyndi song from that era is "she bop".
That was always a fun video.
OH MY GOSH! The 80's were so much fun~~
They really are! So much 80's music here just gives off good vibes
Fun Fact: Cyndi released a different version of this song in 1995 (1994 if you live in the UK) with a pop-reggae twist; newly titled Hey Now (Girls Just Wan to Have Fun) and yes, there is a video as well (Cyndi directed it) - whole new set of "Girls" dancing around. During 1993 while touring for her 4th album Hat Full of Stars she started playing around with the song Girls Just Want to Have fun during the live shows and the final pop reggae version made its way on her Best of CD titled Twelve Deadly Cyns...and then Some. It's an official video release if you dare to meander and take a look.
This was the first album I ever owned, that and Michael Jackson’s Thriller. I was an around 10 and played that record to death.
The video that first made me want to dye my hair blue.
Cyndi was the singer for the band Blue Angel, and their one album is pretty great too. I hope you like this enough to keep diving into Cyndi’s music. I’m sure everyone will suggest Time After Time next, but I’d recommend All Through The Night, She Bop, and When U Were Mine, which was written by none other than Prince.
A true anthem of girl empowerment
Steve Forbert brought the flowers. 🙂
TIME AFTER TIME, YA GOTTA DO THAT ONE SHAWN! 👍😊
Best video of all time and Cyndi is second to none!
This filled the dance floor back in the day. Would love to see you review the B52s Love Shack
yes!
She wasn't considered a pin up but I had a major crush on her back then!
Hi Shawn! LOVE Cyndi! My favourite Cyndi Lauper song is True Colors! Can you please try to react to that when you can! Thanks! LOVE your channel! Peace and Blessings to you and yours from Australia.
Captain lou albano was the epitome of pro wrestling🤘❤️ i sat with him in AC during a frazier boxing match
The bouquet guy is Steve Forbert.
Nice job spotting the Conehead. He, of course, was there to consume mass quantities with the Earthlings.
💖💙🧡❤💜 Try her songs "Time After Time", "True Colors", 'She Bop", "I Drove All Night", "Change Of Heart" and "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" (this video has Popular Wrestlers from the time in it as well as clips from the movie "The Goonies").
I can't help but think of Mr. DiMartino in Daria, whose metal teeth are picking up radio waves and playing this song .
…..that my friend…. captured the 80’s to a tee ! Great reaction ❤️ check out “She Bops” has a hidden meaning 🙈🙉🙊
It's a cute and infectious song.
Thanks so much for this reaction, Shawn. Carly Simon sings "You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds
But soon you'll cage me on your shelf
I'll never learn to be just me first by myself" in "That's the Way I Always Heard It Should Be." In the 60s, 70s, and some of the 80s, women were expected to get married. Parents could be cruel, "jokingly" calling their daughters "old maids" if they chose to be single past their early 20s! Unmarried men were just "sowing their oats." I'm really happy and relieved that isn't the societal norm any more, not for a long time! This song lets it all hang out, and made us 80s girls feel free to have fun! ✌️🎶
Great comment on Carly's video, but it posted on his reaction to Cyndi Laupers "Girls Just Want to Have Fun". Mistake or were you relating to his comments about the caged bird?
@bearballin was relating to what Shawn said about Cyndi singing about taking a beautiful girl and hiding her away from the rest of the world. It is a reference to the caged bird he was talking about. It's that so many girls "disappeared" when they got married, they were expected to have kids and fun was basically over for them
Thank you! That was definitely another reference that made a connection with what I was think about, but the one that slipped my mind in this reaction were actually the lyrics to the song "White Bird" from 'It's A Beautiful Day' 😁"White bird; In a golden cage; Alone; White bird must fly; Or she will die"
@ShawnSalvadori I just went back to watch your reaction to White Bird, and now I see what you're talking about!! I hadn't heard White Bird in years, it was good to hear it again, thanks!
Damn..I would have been 9 when this came out
I remember this song & the fun video. This is actually a cover that was first done by a guy named Robert Hazard back in 1979. Loved Cyndi Lauper's quirky style. She is a really good singer songwriter & has had a lot of hits especially in the 80's such as "Time After Time", "All Through The Night", "True Colors", "Change Of Heart", "I Drove All Night" etc.
Ha ha, we wrote that at the same time about Robert and it being a cover.
Great minds think alike.@@user-sm2ql7nq4l
I Drove All Night is a cover, too. It was Roy Orbison's song. His was recorded first, but released later.
Love your channel Shawn. Cyndi flipped the meaning of the song by changing one word in one repeated line, from GIRL to BOY"
"The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father says, "My BOY, what do you want from your life?"
Father dear, you are the fortunate one
Girls just wanna have fun
Yeah, girls just wanna have fun."
So the original was sung from the perspective of a young man out all night chasing sex with woman, then excusing why's he still living at home by telling his parents to blame it on the girls.
Cyndi also cut out the third verse and made some other changes, but the key one was that of perspective -- that girls should be just as empowered as boys.
A Conehead or a Pinhead (Ramones song)
Try, “She Bop.” 😉
First again ☘️
Easy to beat up on current music, but, where is this kind of fun more than 3 note songs now?

Madonna wish she were this fun and not a diva
Carefree fun music, not at all like the degrading rap lyrics of today!
