Description:True Colors, Cyndi Lauper’s second album, doesn’t sound much like her mega-platinum She’s So Unusual — and good for her. Lauper’s out-of-nowhere 1983 solo debut was an eminently listenable, often brave, frankly subversive work that stood pop convèntion on its fat, stuffy head. When Lauper sang the celebratory “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” or the dark, stark plaint “Time After Time,” she wore her individuality as both a badge of honor and a cross to bear. Much was written about her eccentric dress and appearance, and likewise, much mush was disseminated about her witty take on sex roles. But both appraisals of her appeal were too narrow. “I don’t fit in” is the true sentiment underlying every track on She’s So Unusual.When she sang, “I want to be the one to walk in the sun,” she sounded like someone who’d spent too much time in the darkness. Lauper wasn’t a corporate contrivance: she really was unusual.”
