Well I guess it is... Who knew!

I just found this info on a cyndi site - and there's an extended mix as well.

You make Loving Fun Long before Cyndi became famous or joined Blue Angel, she recorded a cover version of this classic Fleetwood Mac song. It took 10 years for the song to officially be released and only in Japan. Only a few copies were made and it is the most sought after recording by any Cyndi fan.

I always thought it was, "pick up the pizzas, and go home".

That's definitely a much more appealing interpretation.

Sometimes I ASSume people know when I'm being my usual sarcastic, playful self! Eh, I don't mind the Heroes horns. They're kind of silly and garish and make me think of Whole Lotta Trouble, but I like the song so it kind of becomes secondary.

Well, what'll you know. I admit I know very little about Cyndi Lauper. She must have recorded this very soon after Rumours was released. I assume she was trying to imitate Christine's vocals. Maybe that's why I kind of like the vocals. The rest of it is just too weird for my taste.
