It was just after 10 am on a brisk New York morning when Cyndi Lauper stopped by our studios. The pop music icon had already been awake for seven hours having made a live appearance on a television show earlier that morning. Despite her lack of sleep, Lauper was full of energy and anxious to talk about everything from her rock and roll heroes to her love of trombone playing. Cyndi also performed a pair of songs from her latest album, ‘The Body Acoustic’ which features intimate stripped-down versions of her classic hits like the ‘80s anthem, ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’ plus several new originals. And as our guest DJ, Lauper’s musical choices were characteristically eclectic. Read the full interview, and watch the performance & DJ set at AOL MUSIC!
