What makes powerful songs so powerful? I love listening to covers of great songs because I love to hear how many interpretations of the lyrics other singers can find.
Cyndi Lauper wrote this song about a romantic relationship breaking up. But without changing the words, Pink turned it into a song about any two people who want to support each other, even if they don’t agree on everything all the time. It could be a mother and her daughter. Or two friends. Or two bandmates…
And you know how I love seeing people combine artistic styles and art forms to create something new. Pink isn’t just a singer and dancer, she’s also an acrobat! “If you fall I will catch you/ I will be waiting/ Time after time…” takes on a whole new meaning while she’s singing it on a trapeze with three other acobats.
