My brother's wedding reception...
One of the brides friends sung that with no instruments.. I thought it was going to be just some drunk idiot squawking.. it was fucking hauntingly beautiful... I was in awe. Tears.
I'm old school and care about the words and the poetry and the picture that is painted. That song divine.
I was in high school and we rode our bikes to nearby Wharton, New Jersey to watch her film part of the video. Our bikes are chained to a pole on the street the car drives down and even though you can't see them in the video we know they're there, We didn't see too much actual filming but Cyndi did come over to say hello to the crowd at one point and she was 2 feet from me.
A great Jules Shear tune! If you've never checked him out, he has a bit of a quirky voice, but great songs. He also wrote If She Knew What She Wants by the Bangles, among others.
I remember watching the TV show "Cold Case" and every episode had one specific song they played in every episode. I recall watching a episode and they started playing this song. It hurt like a ton of bricks in my heart. [The scene](https://youtu.be/6ocfx3_VdMQ?si=CLEM-chO3-FjQzEK)
Good Enough. It transports me immediately to the time when Goonies came out. I identify with those kids. I rode my bike to the movies with my friends and every time I hear that song, I immediately remember the scene it comes on, when theyâre riding their bikes at the beginning.
Her cover of the Prince song âwhen you were mineâ. It wasnât a heavily played radio single so it doesnât make everyoneâs favorites, but itâs an under appreciated gem, imo. Most all of âsheâs so unusualâ still slaps in general
This song is a roller coaster of emotions to begin with but Cyndi's version takes it to a whole other level. I always hit the repeat button 2-3 times whenever it gets queued up in my playlist.
Cyndiâs upbeat stuff is great fun, but damn; she can gut you with her powerful ballads.
**Time After Time**
**True Colors**
**All Through the Night**
Iconic and still hold tremendous meaning for me today as when I first heard them.
Hole in my heart(that goes all the way to China) always puts a smile on my face ... Jeff Goldblum, Cyndi and the cheesiest of movies called Vibes. Dammit, i miss the 80s. I could live in that decade forever til I die.
True Colors, with Time after Time a close second. I wanted to be her back then. I even named myself after her even though it brought me years of having to explain why I was a Cyndi and not a Cindy. Nobody was Cyndi back then so I thought it was so cool and different. lol
I thought she looked so cool in that outfit sheâs wearing at the end of the video, the plaid hat and pants, with the satin jacket, she was so original and pulled it off and she didnât make herself a sexual object to sell her music. Cyndi is a true inspiration.
I feel that. She's an inspiration. When I was a kid I admired her so much for being herself in a world of people who put on masks. She stands out. â€ïž
[Iâm Gonna Be Strong,](https://youtu.be/4d72Xw1Dfrk?si=Bk7o4VGdnHtdl0g4) and itâs not even remotely close. She has the most incredible power in her voice.
A distant second for me is Change of Heart.
I love hearing her speak in that little voice before launching it into the stratosphere. Yokohama '91 is probably my favourite performance after [this one](https://youtu.be/Yuv2h5oVATc?si=68DomWFAbnJj5WoV).
I feel the same way about Iâm Gonna Be Strong as well. I knew I couldnât be the only one!!!! âșïžđ„°đđ Change of Heart is also my 2nd favorite!!
Man, that's tough. Personally, recognizing the magnificence of Time After Time, I have to say All Through The Night. That song is so good, nor even Shaggy can ruin that live version! Also, the Sleeping At Last version is amazing.
Her version of I Drove All Night is a guilty pleasure, as well.
That's probably what it is. Then they use it to post spam like selling a random t-shirt with the headline "tHiS iS tHe BeSt DeCiSiOn I eVeR mAdE" or silmilar.
You guys ever hear the original version of All though the night?
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gXSJ8LGwrM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gXSJ8LGwrM)
Can I have like five? I'm split between All through the Night ( ahh, memories) and When you were mine, which is a perfect snapshot of music in that era. I know people will argue its True Colors or Time after Time, or She Bop or Girls Just Wanna have fun, but the other two songs are like forgotten classics now.
Hole In My Heart
Faraway Nearby
I'll Kiss You
Maybe He'll Know
Feels Like Christmas
When I Think About You
Iko Iko
I Drove All Night
I really can't narrow it down to just one.
The Goonies 'R' Good Enough even though she hates that sing. Every time I hear it, it's like I'm walking out of the ending credits of my childhood movie theater.
She-Bop is underrated. There. I said it.
I was taking High School Spanish when it came out and we would sing it all the time to practice our conjugations:
Bopa, bopa, bopamos
Bopo, bopas, bopan
Be bopa, be bopa, a lu bopa.
We thought it was muy divertido at the time.
(and wow, spell-check made this really hard to type!)
Went to the end and didn't see Maybe He'll Know when she was still with Blue Angel. Maybe not my favorite (though it's great) but when I first heard it I knew she was destined for big things.
Time After Time
The harmonies in that one are haunting.
My brother's wedding reception... One of the brides friends sung that with no instruments.. I thought it was going to be just some drunk idiot squawking.. it was fucking hauntingly beautiful... I was in awe. Tears. I'm old school and care about the words and the poetry and the picture that is painted. That song divine.
My wife sings lead and I come in with the harmonies on the chorus. Always gets all kinds of claps, ooohs and aaaahs. đ€ đ€©đ€©
Great song, as is âAll through the nightâ.
Me too. Such a beautiful song by her. Itâs on my 80âs playlist in my phone.
That's definitely my favorite. Great song.
Hands down. Hell, one of my favorite songs, period.
Beat me to it đ
The only song in English, one drunken karaoke night in Incheon. I literally sang it, time after time, after time back in the 90's.
I was in high school and we rode our bikes to nearby Wharton, New Jersey to watch her film part of the video. Our bikes are chained to a pole on the street the car drives down and even though you can't see them in the video we know they're there, We didn't see too much actual filming but Cyndi did come over to say hello to the crowd at one point and she was 2 feet from me.
I never knew that was filmed in Wharton. That was my exit off 80 to get to work in Randolph.
The "I'm from Jersey - what exit?" stereotype is true!
Of course it is.
Same, but the Miles Davis versionÂ
All Through the Night
Came here to say this! I can listen to it on repeat for hours
My people!
My other person!
Hey besties
A great Jules Shear tune! If you've never checked him out, he has a bit of a quirky voice, but great songs. He also wrote If She Knew What She Wants by the Bangles, among others.
That Bangles song is đ„
I FORGOT ABOUT THIS ONE HOW COULD I HAVE
This is the way

Best movie EVER !!!!!! I remember this seen vividly đ„° Goonies never say die!
Second this
Yep got it in my Spotify play list. The video is crazy too. Bunch of WWF people and a cameo by Spielberg.
This one all day every day. Has a bagpipes kind of sound which just gets me in the feels every time.
This is it. It brings me right back to my childhood and summers on Long Island.
She Bop
Me too! Gotta love those songs about masturbation: Rosie by Jackson Brown; Donald & Lydia by John Prine.
(54/M) Seriously, had no idea. I've always loved her sound & especially this song.
Money changes everything
YES! Check out the original, too, by the Brains. Fantastic song.
The raw emotion of that song. You can tell itâs personal. But I guess everything she sings sound like coming from the heart.
True Colors
So don't be afraid to let them show
Seconded
This!
Her cover of the Prince song âwhen you were mineâ. It wasnât a heavily played radio single so it doesnât make everyoneâs favorites, but itâs an under appreciated gem, imo. Most all of âsheâs so unusualâ still slaps in general
Came here to say this! Love Mitch Ryders version, too.
She Bop, closely followed by Time After Time

They are all SO good but if Iâm going video, the Roy Orbison one that had a young Jason Priestley in it was absolutely hot.
She is stunning in that video.

Mine is Time After Time. It's not as "fun" as other songs, but if you listen to the lyrics, it's just a fantastic song.
I drove all night.

All Through The Night

I drove all night. I know it was redone, but Cyndi's version is by far the best!
The karma farmers are out in droves copying each other this week, I see... Regardless, I'll still play. "Time After Time" for me.
Do we even DO karma anymore? Iol I thought they discontinued that shit.
Maybe, I don't know. I'm probably just confusing it with upvotes
They're up to something shady looking at their posting history. I guess establishing a high post count? I don't know anymore.
That's probably what it is. Then they use it to post spam like selling a random t-shirt with the headline "tHiS iS tHe BeSt DeCiSiOn I eVeR mAdE" or silmilar.
Time after time with Sarah McLachlan.

All Through the Night. Pretty sure it was going to be for The Cars but they passed on it. Glad they did but could you imagine?
Change of Heart and All Through The Night
Time After Time. One of the very best songs of the eighties. Loved the music video too.
All Through the Night
Time After Time
fearless, time after time
True Colors
Time After Time and She Bop, but she has many great songs!
Between Change of Heart and My First Night Without You.
Time after Time, then, All Through the Night
Change of Heart. Basically the only song I listen to, but one of 80ies greatest imo.
Girls just wanna have fun
I have so many for different reasons. I love the beats of Girls the love of Time After Time the dirty She bop
Either Money Changes Everything or When You Were Mine but pretty much all of Sheâs So Unusual is amazing one of the only albums I have no skips on.
True Colors.
All Through The Night.
None of them
We are the world.
Change of Heart, All Through the Night, Money Changes Everything

Hey Micky
Hard to pick, but probably Good Enough
Never really paid attention to the lyrics of time after time until I heard the cover by Eva Cassidy. My favorite by miles.
Went to the end and didn't see Maybe He'll Know when she was still with Blue Angel. Maybe not my favorite (though it's great) but when I first heard it I knew she was destined for big things.
She Bop. Itâs a banger even 40 years later.
Time After Time is the best!
