Rewind: Cyndi Lauper - She's So Unusual

When I was a ten, I thought the world was divided into Cyndi girls. and Madonna girls. If you were a Cyndi girl ,you could never, ever, be a Madonna girl, no matter how many pairs of fingerless lace gloves you owned.

Cyndi Lauper, on the other hand, was the patron saint of all the doodling, daydreaming, strange little girls who didn't necessarily want to be superstars. Cyndi girls eventually found their way to punk rock, art class, or even school paper (or, more commonly, all three). Or somewhere else where like-minded freaks gathered, away from the popular kids who weren't all that interesting in the first place.
