Now don't go thinking something naughty or literal. Somehow he had a quick memory of a brief piece of trivia and it floored me. Remember the famous "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" song by Cyndi Lauper from 1983? Well, her version was a cover or a re-make of the original song. I had no idea! Now it gets even weirder. The original singer/songwriter was a MAN! Yep. His name is Robert Hazard. I'll attach a link to his version of the song, but I'll warn you that it sounds really strange.

I did not know that Robert Hazard recorded the song before Cyndi Lauper had a hit song herself.

I had no clue. I was in musical hiding through much of the '80s.

Born in 1981 Robert Rimato aka Robert Hazard. Never heard this version but I know he wrote it and it became a big hit for Cyndi Lauper. R.I.P. Robert.

@looeyville I do prefer the original - less manufactured and antiseptic. Lauper , like most, commercially successful singers, is so over-packaged.
