What is a Bluespec CD? Blu-spec CD describes an Audio CD manufactured by a proprietary process introduced by Sony Music Entertainment (SME) in late 2008. It's name derives from the similar manufacturing process to that used to create Blu-Ray Discs. Instead of a traditional infra-red laser, a blue laser is used for recording the pits on the CD master that is needed for disc replication. The blue laser creates more precise pits, causing less distortion in the optical read-out process. SME claims that this results in higher-quality audio when playing back a Blu-spec CD. A Blu-spec CD can be played on all CD players and does not require a blue laser to be read. She's So Unusual Bluespec CD features 4 extra tracks: Money Changes Everything (Live in Irvine 1984), She Bop (Live in Irvine 1984), All Through The Night (Live in Irvine 1984) and Money Changes Everything (Live Summer Sonic 2007).

| Anthony Hill at FemaleFirst takes a look at when exactly did songs turn from syrupy love letters with pretty bows on them into chaos-causing monsters wreaking havoc on young impressionable minds like ours? Let's take a look shall we... |
| But let's not forget the girls in all of this; more often than not they're just as bad an influence as the boys. Also back in the day was Cyndi Lauper's hit single She Bop, which clearly alluded to certain acts of feminine self-pleasure with lines like "I'm picking up and good vibration" and "I better stop or I'll go blind". It's never the ones you expect, is it? Read the full article >>> |

Cyndi Lauper has recorded the Beatles classic Across The Universe with the Japanese artist Jake Shimabukuro. His album titled Across The Universe was released in Japan on 18th March 2009. Cyndi originally recorded Across The Universe back in 1989. The '89 version has been played on US radio throughout the years but has never been released. Jake Shimabukuro's affection for The Beatles has led him in the last few months to record with classical cello legend Yo Yo Ma and pop star Cyndi Lauper. The ulukele virtuoso and cellist teamed for an instrumental version of John Lennon's "Happy Xmas (War is Over) on Ma's latest CD, "Songs of Joy & Peace," and he recorded "Across the Universe" with Lauper for a forthcoming Beatles' tribute. Thus when executives at his Japanese label suggested they were thinking of a releasing a Beatles' tribute album, he immediately embraced the project, and secured Lauper's help on one track. Jake has previously recorded Lauper's "Time After Time" on his "My Life" EP, and she had invited him to play at her concert last year in Kona. "It's for a project I'm releasing in Japan," he explains. "We did a recording of The Beatles' 'Across the Universe.' I just played the ukulele and she sang. She likes being spontaneous, so prior to the session we didn't really plan much, she just wanted to see what would happen. It's basically a Beatles' tribute album with all ukulele arrangements. There are songs like 'Norwegian Wood,' 'Michelle,' 'Something,' 'All You Need is Love' and 'Here There and Everywhere.'" Buy Now: HMV Tower Records CD Japan |

Grammy Winner Lauper to kick off PrideFest, June 12, 8PM MILWAUKEE, WI - On June 12, 2009, PrideFest will be the place to be, as the one and only Cyndi Lauper takes to the Miller Main Stage, for what promises to be the hottest party of the summer. "It's an honor to always have the genuine affection of the gay community,"Cyndi says. "They have never turned their back on me. I will never turn my back on them. We've had a long and enduring love affair." The roots of that affair can be traced to 1985, during which Cyndi won a Grammy award for Best New Artist and became the first artist in history to have five top-10 singles from a debut album. Along the way, she continually won accolades as a singer, musician, actor, and writer. She has been nominated for 13 Grammy Awards, 2 Emmy Awards, 2 American Music Awards, 7 American Video Awards, 18 MTV awards. With hits such as, 'Time after Time," "True Colors," and "Girls just Want to Have Fun," Lauper cemented her position as one of the all time greats. Cyndi Lauper burst onto the world stage as the quintessential girl who wants to have fun. After more than 20 sterling years and global record sales in excess of 25 million, she has proven that she has the heart and soul to keep her legion of fans compelled by her every creative move. With her newly minted collection, "Bring Ya To The Brink," Cyndi firmly asserts her position as one of the most beguiling, innovative, and downright exciting recording artists of this (and or other) generation. Special VIP reserved seating for the June 12th performance by Lauper, as well as general admission tickets to PrideFest will go on sale March 27th. An exclusive presale will be offered to select VIP email members on March 24th. Visit www.pridefest.com for more information. Source: >>> |

| Madonna has defended Madonna's alleged relationship with Jesus Luz, saying that the media has "double standards". The 'Girls Just Want To Have Fun' singer claimed that there was nothing wrong with Madonna dating a man 28 years her junior. "You know, how many old geezers do you see with young women? What's the double standard? Who cares?", Music News quotes her as saying. "You know, they're both adults. Who cares? What's good for the goose is good for the gander." Madonna met the 22-year-old Brazilian model during a photoshoot in December. She has reportedly since started taking him to weekly Kabbalah sessions. External Link >>> |
