"GIRLS JUST WANT to HAVE FUN"
1983
“A lot of people don’t realize this, but ‘Girls’ is really a political song,” Lauper said in a statement about the track she flipped to have a female perspective based on the original penned by songwriter-performer Robert Hazard. “When I got my feminist hands on it, I knew I wanted to make it into an anthem for all women. Sonically, I wanted the song to be uplifting and joyful. When it came time to make the video, it was really important to me to make sure we included women from every walk of life. I wanted every little girl watching the video to have the joyful experience of seeing herself on that screen. I wanted us to be a community.”The track was originally a man's account of bedding women—until Cyndi Lauper transformed it intoa rallying cry for sexual equality. It was 1983, and women were starting to get loud.
