Wake Me
Shake me
Come on take me
To a Higher Plane
Make the music and the rhythm
Carry me away

I want to be with you
I want to be free
I want to be connected to everyone I see
(Ohh) Ooo... everyone moving with the same emotion
(Ohh) Ooo... and he looks just like a silent word being spoken

Wake Me
Shake me
Come on take me
To a Higher Plane
Make the music and the rhythm
Carry me away

Rhythm is my spirit
Rhythm is my speech
Rhythm is pulsating
The rhythm of the street
(Ahh) Ooo... to find myself in the still of the thunder
(Ahh) Ooo... 'til another moment passing by
Pulls me under... pulls me under

Wake me
Shake me
Come on take me
To a Higher Plane
Make the music and the rhythm
Carry me away

I want to be with you

Ohhhhhhh Yeah!

Wake me
Shake me
Come on take me
To a Higher Plane
Make the music and the rhythm
Carry me away

I want to be with you
I want to be free
I want to be connected from my heart to be beat
Beam myself in the light against the darkness
'Til your love descends and smoothes away
All the harshness, all the harshness

Wake me
Shake me
Come on take me
To a Higher Plane

Make the music and the rhythm
Carry me away

Wake me
Shake me
Come on take me
To a Higher Plane

Make the music and the rhythm
Carry me away-ay-ay-ay-ay

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.
