Comments:
| Has an 8-octave vocal range - Alan, Singapore, Singapore |
| John McCurry, my friend from Connecticut, played guitar for Lauper. His hair is naturally red, however. John went on to record with Julian Lennon and songs were acknowledged "all songs written by Lennon and McCurry". Pretty funny. - Phil, New York City, NY |
