Stevie isn't the only one who twirled onstage!

The quality isn't that great, but I've had fun watching old Cyndi videos tonight.

I remember the first time I heard Time After Time and I thought while stunned and with mouth agape - "this chick is gonna be huge!" Then, I saw her in the GJWHF video and that took me into her fan base forever. She has a remarkable voice as well.

Thanks for posting!

It's funny but I don't think I appreciated her as much when it was all new. I liked her music a lot, I wasn't crazy over her then. When I saw her open for Cher several years ago, I was blown away (she actually blew Cher away, but that's another story). Now, looking back and also watching her perform live lately- I have an incredible respect for her. She really is awesome.

I thought, at the age of like 15, this is the coolest chick I have ever seen and i wanna be just as crazy as she is

I literally wanted to start up a conga line in downtown Lafayette, Louisiana just like she did in the GJWHF video!!!!

LOL- I can just see that!

I do remember I liked how she wore two different sneakers. And GJWHF was like, our anthem.

I think she was WAY ahead of her time in many ways.
