A Live from 2008 recorded during the reality TV show “Australian Idol”
Jean Michel Jarre who co-wrote “Swipe to the right" with Cyndi Lauper said of her:
People were wondering, weirdly, why Cyndi? But for me she's the first Lady Gaga. She's a child of New York's new wave, a child of MTV. She's crazy, sweet, kind, and one of the most accomplished musicians I've ever met. She can do blues, pop, rock and musicals like Kinky Boots, which won her a Tony Award. She’s a big advocate for LGBT rights and she’s so fun to hang out with…” (hotpress.com 16/08/2016)
“Everyone on the album is a geek, a sound enthusiast. Cindy Lauper's voice has always amazed me. She invented auto-tune, but in her larynx! It's natural for her. “Swipe To The Right”, the song with Cindy is, in fact, a quite “dark” love song which talks about the feeling of love in the age of Tinder.
