It was released by #PortraitRecords as Lauper's debut single from her first solo album, #ShesSoUnusual (1983), which was released four days earlier. Lauper's version gained recognition as a #feministAnthem and was promoted by an #MTVVideoMusicAward–winning music video directed by #EddGriles.

For me the original Dolly Parton recording of "I Will Always Love You" (she did two as far I'm aware) deserves just as much status as Whitney's.
I feel the same way about "I Drove All Night", which was originally recorded by Roy Orbison but only released posthumously after Cyndi's version.
Two songs, two very different (but workable) styles

Oh, momma, dear, we're not the fortunate ones
And, girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun -

The Goonies 'R' Good Enough b/w What A Thrill
1985 Canada 7” pressingA killer find from my trip downtown today!
This song is forever tattooed on my childhood due to its affiliation with one of my all-time favorite movies, The Goonies.
Every time I hear it, I’m transported right back to that movie theatre where I saw it on opening weekend in Milford, Ma.Both the record AND picture sleeve are in immaculate shape, and I’ve never owned one before where BOTH were intact. I either saw the sleeve either no record, or the record in just a shitty plain paper sleeve.
Pure sentimental #80s joy, man.
It’s the little things that make you happy.
And this makes me very happy.#vinyl #vinylrecords #vinylcommunity #records #vintage #retro #physicalmedia #analog #cratedigging #vinylcollection #vinylfinds #rare #art #1980s #80sMusic #80smovies #movies #TheGoonies #cyndilauper
