Stevie gives her opinion on Cyndi Lauper!
 

From that "I was rockin' in mah crib fer sher" RAL interview...



:)

That was exceptionally cool, thank you so much!

Cool and thanks for posting.

Interestingly, La Nicks in this period is very careful when talking about other stars unlike the interviews in the last five or so years a la the Madonna publicity stunt comment.

:thumbsup: Any time, amby.

yeah? I haven't really seen her talk about current celebs all that much. I know she let Madonna have it. The only other time I remember seeing her talk about other stars was when Sandra Bernhardt asked her what she thought of the girl singers of the day (that was around the Enchanted era, I think), and she said they were "all her sisters", or something to that effect. I wonder if she meant that, though, considering the pop acts at that time...

In the Molly Muldrum (sp?) interview for RAL while she was in Australia, she comments of Pat Benatar and Madonna and says something like while they are good, they are much younger than Stevie was. It was, I think, in the context of having to make videos and how she does not like that process because she has to repeat scenes and worry about how she looks. She stresses she is a live performer not an actress.

Ohh, yeah, I have that interview. I don't remember her mentioning that, but I can see where she's coming from.

that was freekin cool. It's nice to hear stevie give props to cindi, shes cool.
Thanks for posting.

That was very cool to see!

Oh yeah, I remember that!
Also, I always thought she was too polite to say "Madonna can't even f*cking sing! :rolleyes: " but really, really wanted to.
If she thought any of the same things I did when Madonna came out. :laugh:

Sorry to the Madonna fans. Although I respect her in some ways, in many I don't. She feels very soulless to me, and always has. Plus, and even worse, she can barely f*cking sing! :laugh: Great videos, though, for sure.

Hahaha, reminds me of the episode of Golden Girls where Dorothy says she will do Hail Marys until Madonna has a hit movie. :lol:

The golden girls are great! thanx so much for posting this...i always wonder what stevie thinks of other artists...i'd like to hear her opinion on marianne faithfull, for instance. great clip, though...she is coked, i think.

I remember watching this in it's original 1985 MTV broadcast.She did seem like she'd been to happy hour.

That *was* cute- thanks for posting.

Incidentally, I read an interview once where Madonna herself(!) acknowledged she was not a great singer. :laugh:

So does La Nicks - she has said more than once that she is not the greatest singer, but knows how to use her self described funny voice - or something like that.
