Cyndi Lauper Album: “Wanna Have Fun”

Not bad for a lesser priced cd. Of course this cd does not have a lot of singles. It only has Girls Just Wanna Have Fun and Money Changes Everything. But the others are a nice compilations of songs that she likes and some are not that bad. When You Were Mine is a great song form her debut album that was written by Prince. And other good songs are A Night To Remember, Calm Inside The Storm, and Iko Iko the remake. All together it shows different styles of music. All songs can be found on her albums.

Even though there are no new songs or not even new versions for the tracks that made it to this yet another "best of", it's irresistable to any Cyndi fan not to buy this - there's the "new" order of the tracks - way different than the 12 Deadly Cyns album and of course there's the new artwork. I only wish this cd had more Cyndi pictures. Other than that, put it on your cd player, hit play and have a wonderful time!!

I bought this album last year at Sam Goody for about eight bucks. I bought it before looking at what the contents were...because I am a devoted Cyndi Lauper fan, which is kind of weird being that I have not even reached the tender age of 17...but will before the month is up. This album contains most of the songs that are on twelve deadly cyns...however I like this album better because of the slight differences in songs and patterns, segueys from song to song, and the overall mood of the album. Over all the songs that were picked for this album were not all the ones that got critical acclaim or any at all. They were and are the songs theat the artist (Cyndi herself) has chosen because they mean something special to her. All in all I believe that as far as a greatest hits album it does its job pretty well. :)
