Whoever is writing for foxnews seems to be a HUGE Cyndi fan - they have had many articles on there about her and they have been great - I wonder if there is a Sony connection? --- "Chris H." <ch98103-hotmail.com> wrote: --------------------------------- A coworker sent this from foxnews.com: Cyndi Lauper Headed for Broadway I'll tell you this: The really important theatre director Joe Mantello and the really important theatre producer Jimmy Nederlander made sure to catch Cyndi Lauper's show at Joe's Pub. Now they're talking about expanding it for off or maybe even on Broadway. Over the four shows, many celebs from the New York music scene stopped by, Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson among them. What they witnessed was a total transformation of Lauper from wisecracker to siren. She sang like a bird, getting notes where it didn't seem possible on hard to sing songs like "Unchained Melody" and "Walk on By." When Lauper's album "At Last" hits stores November 18th, watch for a stampede from smart, older record buyers who want to hear one of their heroes triumph over less talented types of today. What Lauper does with these cover songs is make them her own. In concert, it was even more so. And she has not lost her sense of humor. "You don't wanna go home thinking this was 'Girls Just Wanna Cry,'" she quipped toward the end of last night's set before heading into a New Orleans jazz version of "On the Sunny Side of the Street." And wait: she's changed some of the lyrics to Nina Simone's classic "My Baby Just Cares for Me." I think Brad Pitt, Queen Latifah and Jennifer Aniston will get a kick out of making the cut. There are some others; let their names remain a surprise for now. The album "At Last" was produced by Russ Titelman, the longtime Warner Bros. expert whose most recent hit was James Taylor's last album -- a top 10 hit. Now Russ, if only some of the other great singers from the 70s and 80s will call you. Linda Ronstadt, Carly Simon, etc. Call me, I'll give you the number. --------------------------------- Enjoy MSN 8 patented spam control and more with MSN 8 Dial-up Internet Service.
