You guys, I CAN'T BELIEVE that I have lived twenty-three years and had never seen a Cyndi Lauper video. This is what happens when you grow up without cable, folks. Look, I've been a long-time Cyndi-devotee, particularly the She's So Unusual album (which had a profound effect on me when I stole it from my father's CD collection in seventh grade) but the recent video binge I've gone on has taken my love of Cyndi to new heights. Suddenly, I'm finding it hard to resist the urge to dye my hair pink and fill my wardrobe with tulle and neon. But really, why resist, right? This video might be my favorite (though it's a little slow in the beginning). Cyndi is totally rad and nothing short of an 80's version of Clara Bow.
