Winter Wonderland – Cyndi Lauper

Cynthia Ann Stephanie “Cyndi” Lauper is an American singer-songwriter and actress. She achieved success in the mid-1980s  with the release of the album She’s So Unusual and became the first artist to have four top-five singles released from one album.

Lauper has released 11 albums and over 40 singles, and as of 2008 had sold more than 25 million records worldwide.
She continues to tour the world, often in support of human rights.

Winter wonderland was written in 1934 by the composer/lyricist combination of Felix Bernard and Richard B. Smith, and was a Christmas staple of the Big Band era.  The original lyrics, about pretending that a snowman is “Parson Brown,” are often substituted for ones about a circus clown, perhaps because the position of parson is rare these days. It has been covered countless times, by artists as diverse as Mandy Moore and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

The song is one of the most popular in terms of radio airplay requests,  particularly the version recorded by the Eurythmics.
