Lauper's Shine of the moment
Cyndi Lauper has unnoticeably "shone" much in the last decade...evolving into a critically acclaimed "artist"...from '93's "Hat Full of Stars" to '97's "Sisters of Avalon" and '98's "Merry Christmas...", she's an under-appreciated, highly-talented gem of contemporary music! "Shine" gives us a preview of her long-awaited LP, expected to be released within the next 6 months. The 4 tracks on this EP are currently well-received as she performs them live for Cher's Farewell Tour. The title track is an uplifting song for those self-deprecating heads buried in the sand; "It's Hard to Be Me" is reminiscent of her '85 rocker "Money Changes Everything"--a song about narcissism and celebrity with a strong punk-beat--her voice being the top instrument; "Madonna Whore" has an R&B flavor, showcasing her lower octaves, and deals with a serious issue of human nature (not Madonna, the singer); and "Water's Edge" (written w/Rob Hyman, her "Time After Time" co-writer) is just simply a beautiful ballad about self-examination and the support of love. Buy it!! You DO NOT have to be a die-hard Cyndi fan to appreciate this little masterpiece! And at this price, what have you got to lose? You might just rediscover the talent of an 80's icon "they" forgot to promote in the 90's.
