The documentary will give viewers a glimpse into a celebrated and groundbreaking artist who has left a remarkable legacy through her art. In celebration of the tour and the film, Lauper recently placed her hand and footprints in a ceremony outside the TCL Chinese Theater in Los Angeles.

My comment … Remarkable how my favorit from wayback as she makes “Drove all Night” original by Roy Orbison, droving her own with amazing holding high notes for almost 10-15 seconds, while adding vibrato and changing the pitch. Here you go from the ’80s … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2y1TZXc5DiY&ab_channel=CyndiLauperVEVO
