Swish made the mention of Rob Hyman and the hooters. Another early 80's guy Robert Hazard penned "girls just wanna have fun"
Another side note, Steve Forbert is in the video for the above song.

AA, you did such a good job explaining Time After Time, wanna take a shot at She Bop?

[Auricauricle]

Um, the expuragated or unexpurgated version?

[Mr Peabody]

Your choice, while I reach for the dictionary. Are you Dennis Miller just killing time until you get a job?

The song Time After Time is about Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity. Although Lauper doesn't flaunt it, she is a Nobel holder in physics and is a scientist-in-residence at CERN and is a consultant for the Hadron Collider.

"Flashbacks" refers to time-space compression and "suitcases" is a metaphor for photons, in the song. "The second hand unwinds" is a depiction of the time-space compression when objects move near or at light-speed, and is a reference to Einstein's thought experiments which used the clock tower in Bern Switzerland, where he wrote and published his famous papers in Analphysik....

BUT seriously...

Or maybe Cyndi got held back, dropped out and eventually got a GED.
