专辑介绍

★葛莱美奖、艾美奖、东尼奖荣耀加身,唯一媲美MADONNA的全能天后,1983年首张录音室专辑 ★专辑攻下两座葛莱美金奖,全球累积销售超过1600万张,名列滚石杂志「史上最伟大500张专辑」之列,收录全美告示榜No.2亚军单曲&Girls Just Want to Have Fun&, 全美告示榜冠军单曲&Time After Time&等多首超级金曲 在八零年代初期当各种风潮逐渐改变成形之际,女性艺人或女性摇滚歌手也同时在这一时期开始慢慢崭露头角,尤其当MTV正式开台开始营运播放各种音乐录影带后,许多的不同新造型艺人可说是获得了另一种新的出线机会,而其中一身色彩鲜豔缤纷打份的Cyndi Lauper便是在这时期适时崛起。因为不论就外型或歌曲风格而言,Cyndi Laupe均在当时以融合了流行、新浪潮、后庞客,甚至雷鬼与放客等各种音乐类型迅速获得青少无乐迷的注意与喜爱,而且她那首冠军畅销单曲〈Girls Just Want to Have Fun〉在后来更是成为许多无轻女孩的「独立宣言」国歌,使得她不仅在市场销售量超过五百万张的成绩,也让她成为了那一世代青少年表达自我的代言人之一。   这张专辑从一开始的(Money Changes Everything)便是叙述一对情侣因现实金钱的压力而分手,接著的(When You Were Mine〉则是翻唱Prince的作品,而感人抒情金曲(Time After Time〉以真挚的噪音唱出友情的可贵更是让她获得许多少男少女的认同与支持,事实上,在当时,全世界也确实早有许多人是模仿Cyndi Lauper独特的穿著打份,鲜豔的染髮、紧身服、碎布与鱼网袜都已成了颇具代表性的次文化族群象徵。也因此这张专辑裡,Cyndi Lauper以完整的製作概念和自身的生活经验生动的勾勒出一位年轻女孩子身闯大都会所面临的种种慾望与情感,真诚、活泼却又不失其流行感。 by Stephen Thomas Erlewine One of the great new wave/early MTV records, She's So Unusual is a giddy mix of self-confidence, effervescent popcraft, unabashed sentimentality, subversiveness, and clever humor. In short, it's a multifaceted portrait of a multifaceted talent, an artist that's far more clever than her thin, deliberately girly voice would indicate. Then again, Lauper's voice suits her musical persona, since its chirpiness adds depth, or reconfigures the songs, whether it's the call to arms of &Girls Just Want to Have Fun& or the tearjerking &Time After Time.& Lauper is at her very best on the first side, all of which were singles or received airplay, and this collection of songs -- &Money Changes Everything,& &Girls,& &When You Were Mine,& &Time,& &She Bop,& &All Through the Night& -- is astonishing in its consistency, so strong that it makes the remaining tracks -- all enjoyable, but rather pedestrian -- charming by their association with songs so brilliantly alive. If Lauper couldn't maintain this level of consistency, it's because this captured her persona better than anyone could imagine -- when a debut captures a personality so well, let alone a personality so tied to its time, the successive work can't help but pale in comparison. Still, when it's captured as brightly and brilliantly as it is here, it does result in a debut that retains its potency, long after its production seems a little dated.
