She squeaks from the heart that's fo sure!

The thing that always attracts me to Cyndi is that one can never tell for sure if she's playing out a character during old interviews. For example, here, I bet noone can be sure whether she's serious or not.

She is so funny. Her ability to make people wonder if she is joking is real talent. I'm 43 (I was 6 when this interview occurred), my Dad is turning 74 and my Mum who would be 73 this year (she passed away last year Boxing Day 2020) listened to her music too. Girls just want to have fun crosses the ages no doubt about that. I always think that if multiply generations listens and enjoys a singer then they are truly talented like Elton John, the Bee Gees etc.

She's hamming it. Her voice changes when she talks about being a geisha girl.

She was Harley Quinn before there was a Harley Quinn

Awesome interview from the mid 80s, it's great that both Letterman and Cyndi are still going strong to this day! Thanks for sharing ^^

I just looked her up to see what she looks like in 2017. I was very surprised. She is beautiful and looks like she's in her early 40's, instead of her mid-60's.

I always thought, she was much younger in that years... she was 31 years old. Well, she was still young by the way😂😆

She is just so lovable and has always been positive. She uses her famous platform for good. She is naturally funny. Xx

She doesn't really speak like this.

This is kind of adorable and I really enjoyed this interview... you can tell that Dave's really into her whole 'She's so Unusual' vibe... he's having fun and going along with her child-like wonder instead of being condescending... he can sometimes be like that when he doesn't really like someone... He keeps telling her to stick around and it's rather endearing to watch him fall under her spell... her voice seems to take on a deeper tone when he brings up being a Geisha... How can you not love someone who's so different and yet so authentic at the same time?

Ya gotta love her I remember when she burst onto the scene. She was and still is amazing!!!!!

I needed her to be my bestfriend growing up. I loved her sooo much in High School... yes I had records 😀💜 She is different like me 💜 I appreciate her so much 💛

Beginning at 8:37 she starts talking in her normal voice then at 9:33 she's back to using her childish voice lol

You can hear her voice slipping from the childish to normal when she is talking about captain lew albano, her being a singer it's obviously hard to stay in the higher range too much

He knows 4 octaves. He can also speak in quite a deep range. He speaks deeper in another interview. She loves to fool around and has a good sense of humor. And her singing skills are fantastic.

She is so cute.

She sounds so cute and sweet and buoyant in her voice and her energy off the chain ! ❤

She's the first...and opened doors for quirky Sia, Lady Gaga and the like.

Me parece adorable su voz!!

Luv you Cyndi. You are a True Talent for real. .

very cute voice 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

she’s so sweet, i can listen to her talking all day

Dave gets it. She's so calculated while she is putting on a show. He's just reveling in the fact that he knows whats behind the act. she's brilliant. Cyndi is one of the greatest of all time.

The loviliest doll of pop music ever!

I can see thru coloured my favorite songs oh and girl just wont have fun . and time after time all of my favorite 1980s song of all time i really love her she is beautiful and sweet like Angel from heaven 💖💖💖💖😍😍😍

would love to see an interview between them again, 40 years later

Cyndi Lauper. People have forgotten that for a few years, she was as big as Madonna, Michael Jackson, and Prince. As far as the public persona she had at this juncture, it was a carefully maintained act. She had this loud, colorful, boisterous, and childlike demanor…BUT what most of us didn’t realize at the time was that she was already in her early 30s. She was very shrewd and business-minded having been in the business for 10 years. The other three were only in their mid-20s at the time. By the time she put out “True Colors” (circa 1987) it was very obvious she was at a different point in her life. She looked older, and it was almost like she had been SEDATED. However, looking back as an adult, I realized that she had basically grown up. She was looking for “normalcy”; ready to start a family; and so forth. She was in her mid-30s by then.

She went into her normal voice for a little bit...anyone noticed that towards the end of the clip?

She’s so cool!🥰

So Cindy Lauper and Captain Lou Albano met here in Puerto Rico......WOW

Sometimes I wonder who made Betty Boop in the 80s.

The crazy thing is that Letterman is only 6 years older than Cyndi, yet he seems so much mature than her in every aspect.

She is absolutely stunning! Gorgeous!

She’s so cool, i wanna hang out with that times Cyndi

She sounds like Lisa Simpson

Shes adorable

I expected her to say "Mistah J" sometime through the interview lol

A woman with a young beautiful soul.

I think her voice was an act, because I have heard her in other talk shows, and her voice is very normal. She broke out at a time when dressing up in weird costumes was accepted in the music industry and fans seemed to like it.

The big difference between the "weird costumes" of then vs now is that they were self styled by the artist themselves...very inspirational to the creative kids of the 80s.

no wonder why she called the Pop sweetheart 😊😊😊

She's quite delightful

It's hilarious how uncomfortable the audience seems to be when in the presence of such a strong woman lmao. She just owns the room and runs circles around anyone who takes pause in wondering if she's for real or not. And shes hilarious - shouts out to the few people who eere laughing at sll her jokes

Cyndi is so funny and awesome. Johnny Carson show were classy he had the seats that had the foot rest that rise up. Not Dvid Letterman his show was class B or C 😂 But I did always enjoy his shows 🤔 The Late Nigh show today on CBS, ABC and NBC are crap. I miss the 80's and 90's 😪

In an alternate universe I was born 20 years earlier and married Cyndi Lauper and together we had 2 kids; one of them that went on to become the first President to be inducted into the Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame and the other to be Kurt Cobain’s personal sobriety coach who helped him overcome addiction. Kurt dedicated his 6th studio album to him.
