December ChildCyndi Lauper

Songwriter: Jan Pulsford Cyndi Lauper

Close your eyes December Child
And dream a while my little son and moon
May the stars be your crown
And may the earth guide you round and round

Snuggle up and let me hold kiss
Your baby breath in the dark and cold
On a silent night long ago
Another mother held her babe and told him

Close your eyes December Child
And dream a while my little son and moon
May the stars be your crown
And may the earth guide you round and round

They had come such a long long way
Rest your little head on me and I'll tell you of
A little king and his bed of hay
It is remembered every Christmas day

Little one, little son
All my life I've wished you welcome

Close your eyes December Child
And dream a while my little son and moon
May the stars be your crown
And may the earth guide you round and round

Cyndi Lauper

An 80’s pop starlet that skyrocketed her way to the top of the mainstream game, Cyndi Lauper has made her mark as an artist both socially and musically.

Beginning her solo career in the 1983 with hit debut album She’s So Unusual, Lauper came to be a household name with the four top-five hits that came with the record, including breakthrough single “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” and the visceral, chart-topping “Time After Time”. Her camp attitude, electrifying vocals, and unrelenting earworms made an impression on the general public, and she would take home Best New Artist and Best Album Package at the Grammy’s for She’s So Unusual, amidst 4 other nominations. Lauper would never reach the same sort of stardom again musically following She’s So Unusual, but her legacy was far from over.

She’s So Unusual set the ground for her next True Colors. Released in 1986, the album most notably contained title-track “True Colors”, which would grow to become a primary anthem of the gay rights movement. Lauper would later serve as a key advocate of the LGBT community, and she has fairly consistently addressed homophobia throughout her career.
