The startling performer helped to usher in the dawn of MTV with songs and videos that were often wacky, poignant, and filled with unexpected vocal leaps. Only Madonna (around whom Lauper can sing rings) appeared capable of challenging her ascent, and, sure enough, Lauper eventually toppled in the wake of the Material Girl's inevitable world conquest. Lauper has been threatening to come back ever since. HAT FULL OF STARS, the strongest of her post-debut releases, should have brought the singer full circle. Leading off with the irrepressible "That's What I Think," complete with recorder--yes, recorder--solo, Lauper teams up with DJ phenom Junior Vasquez to haul her into the '90s. The force of Lauper's pipes soars over the brittle machinery as though the surrounding samples are only there to keep her earthbound. Elsewhere, she teams up with old partners Rob Hyman and Eric Bazilian (of Hooters fame), who had a hand in sculpting her debut. Although STARS failed to fully recharge her career, Lauper remains an undeniable talent and a super-charged live performer.
