She's literally being a comedian. She's playing a character and has some practiced jokes, all woven together with a really quick wit. I think that's why Carson seems to like her so much.
This is why I really respected Johnny Carson. He was very fond of artists like Cyndi Lauper and Grace Jones, and he loved them so much that they would come on his show often., I've always loved Cyndi, and still do to this day.
Carson/Lauper was fascinating to me. Most youth-oriented pop stars avoided Johnny's show because 'it wasn't cool'. They wanted SNL, Dave, and MTV. But Lauper did 4 hits on Carson right out of the gate and gave him the platinum album.

I wish I truly understood during the 80s how much the world would change. I’m so blessed to have grown up during that era. Things that come to mind: Goonies, parachute pants, members only jackets, mtv played music videos back then all day long. Toys! Omg I miss my classic toys like GI Joe, Transformers, He Man. I always think back to those days. I have super clear mental still frames of the 80s. That’s all I have to escape the awful times we live in today.
I wonder if it was the 80's or just we grew up then and are longing for our upbringing. Anytime life sucks , I go back to the 80's as well ; here's a tip : you can buy your 80's all back on Ebay... lol
Ive never been aware of how captivating she was. Soooo energetic, hilarious...not to mention the beauty and style. Not a surprise she made it during a time when there were so many stars. AmazinG!!!
Love Cindi Lauper...she is AUTHENTIC.. real.. funny...extremely talented. Great voice Her Voice adss to " We Are The World "... Added to that video..personality ..vocals. She had lost her voice ..I read Doctors said, no more singing She is almost childlike ...touches hearts 💕 💞 ♥️ 💜

Completely besotted. So beautiful and talented, but has a childlike quality. Love her and Jonny. Her music is like, she suddenly came from another planet, she is so original, and made a huge impact on music.
Damn. Telling that unfunny joke only to say it's funnier in Japanese was great. To top it off by having it told in Japanese was downright genius. She's got to be one of the best guests on this show.
Cyndi is an undeniable talent with a great sense of humor amd timing being interviewed by the very best interviewer to ever live. You can tell that Johnny genuinely respects her
Y, even from her first appearance on his show, you could tell he really liked her. She's a great talent and proved again and again what a great guest she is.
She absolutely murders in the chair with carson, then torches the room with those vocals with no auto-tune tune or electronic help. Some people have "it".
She was and is a keeper. Back in the day, all us guys in my social group had a huge crush on Cyndi. And it was even more captivating because she wasn't smutty. Always one of my favourites.
I was a young teenager in the 80's and I'm just now been watching all these Cyndi Lauper on various Late Night shows from back then - Johnny Carson, Letterman. I must say I never knew Cyndi back then, like I am learning now. As a kid, all I paid attention to was what was on the radio and MTV. I'm learning now just how entertaining and such an awesome person Cyndi is to listen to. Her stories and the way she talks, pure bred NYer, makes me smile & laugh so much. I think she would have had a good career as a comedian. I love her. The sad thing is that my memory of the 80's as that Cyndi, did not get the respect, notoriety, the awards and level of fame that she deserved. What I mean is, I feel like back then Madonna was bigger than Cyndi and she lived in the shadows of Madonna. Cyndi was popular mostly in the mid to maybe late 80's. By the 1990's Cyndi seemed to disappear, while Madonna continued to have success.
just in case you're still around and may have somehow missed this video, for me, this shows off Cyndi's brilliance as an artist. th-cam.com/video/WRNX6mUCTQA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_s5N9Hp59MIMkwnV taped in 2000, crappy optics wonderful performance.

what a great interview she is so sweet and funny who would not want to know this woman :-) and that performance so much energy amazing live performance Cyndi Lauper one of the best artist to come from the 80's hands down
Another amazing and stunning live vocal performance from one of the greatest pop singers of the last 30 years. This is how you reeeeaaaally sing a song live without auto-tune. Pay attention & learn byotches!......😘
I listen to ALOT of Cyndi Lauper songs, but I never knew what her talking voice sounds like!! I LOVE her talking voice and personality she is so freaking gorgeous and unusual...she sounds like Harey Quinn!!
loooove how Cyndi completely loses herself in the music 💃💃💃💃she wasn't even performing for the audience anymore, yet at the same time, she was.. I love watching her perform this song on different videos- you can feel how much she feels it.. brilliant!! 💖
Cyndi Lauper should have added sit-down comedy to her musical career! She is so hilarious! I just love her comic personality! And it's much funnier in Japanese! I screamed with laughter. So Yo Nara!
I think she knows what she's doing with the accent. I saw a bit of an interview from the earlier Blue Angel days and the accent seemed way less pronounced.
Didn't know how she was going to be able to pull off this particular song (which is my favorite of hers by far) both physically given how intense a performer she is as well as musically on a studio stage, but she and her band did it. Wow! Also, what a great personality. At the time, Cyndi was a bigger star than Madonna.
I was watching Madonna's first concert recently and I couldn't believe how much she was copying Cyndi Lauper's style and even her accent. She did establish her own style later of course.

FINALLY saw her in concert at Queens College (10/20/2013), she is great at 60 yrs old!!!
"its much funnier in japanese"
Me: dead lmao
That was so awesome. So funny. Hah!
In another interview, a friend of hers tells the joke in Spanish. XD
Omg that performance. That interview. Literally a brilliant human being.
So smart, so genuine, so talented and beautiful and funny. What a woman!
I remember the first time she came on the tonight show, she wanted one thing only was.2 have one classic song.and she did, Time after time..
True color, and there's others on the first album.
One tiny lady with a gigantic heart and talent, she's in the category with Dolly Parton and Willy Nelson, National treasures, loved and and always protected..❤❤👽
If Cyndi had not been a talented singer I fully believe she would of still wound up famous. She would have made a brilliant comedian.
