Summary: Cyndi's DVD rekindles memories from her tour and is stunning
Review: This DVD does justice to Cyndi'd live performances on the At Last tour. She did run up into the crowd a bit more at her show in Cleeland than on the DVD. Her voice is recaptured beauifully on this recording. Whether or not you saw her on this past tour, the DVD will make you feel like you were there. She converses with an audience like no other musical performer that have encountered.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: After all these years, Cyndi still has it going on
Review: Track listing:

Program Start, At Last, Stay, I Drove All Night, If You Go Away, All Through The Night, Walk On By, Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood, She Bop, Sisters Of Avalon, Change Of Heart, True Colors, Shine, It's Hard To Be Me, Money Changes Everything, Unchained Melody, Time After Time, Girls Just Want To Have Fun, Credits.

One thing that has always been true about Cyndi Lauper is that she will go out of her way to give her fans a great live show, regardless of whether she's performing at a small record store for free or at a sold-out major event concert. The location and number of people attending doesn't matter...Cyndi gives everything she's got when she performs live. And this new DVD "Live At Last," recorded at her March 11, 2004 gig at The Town Hall in New York, is certainly no exception. This DVD will surely satisfy both long-time fans as well as those who have only recently discovered Cyndi's music with her most recent album "At Last," as the track listing (see above) contains songs from both her old-school catalog as well as her renditions of the classics. I certainly appreciate her newer stuff but to me, the best part of this concert is hearing and seeing her perform her trademark songs such as the beautiful "Time After Time" and my personal favorite, "I Drove All Night." These songs may have been written a long time ago, but Cyndi proves with this concert that time certainly has not taken away any of the magic that made them so great.

There are also some great bonus features, a lot more substantial than what most concert DVD's offer:
Stay Music Video
Forest Park
Driving With Cyndi
Sunday Dinner
Broad Channel
Shoot It Yourself! with Cyndi and Kevin
Alternate Angles
Discography

All in all, a must-have for any Cyndi Lauper fan, even the casual one. And for the price that it's offered here you would be crazy not to buy it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FANTASTICO!!!!
Review: Un concerto assolutamente fantastico ed imperdibile. Cyndi regala emozioni a non finire. In walk on by regala una perla a tutti i suoi fans e non. Anche il materiale extra è imperdibile: quando dalla macchina lei parla della sua infanzia è così sincera e graziosa che viene voglia di essere seduti accanto a lei.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: And God Created Cyndi Lauper!
Review: What a great gift. Mrs. Lauper still the best female performer of all times. Just with her voice and charisma she reafirms why she is an unique and solid performer. Her voice is stronger and beautiful than ever and the entire performance is realistic and powerful! Do you want to laugh, cry and feel your heart and soul traveling all at the same time? Well, own this DVD. True Colors, At Last, I Drove All Night, and Shine are remarkable! This DVD Concert is a MUST TO HAVE!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Cyndi Lauper's Still Got It...and Thensome
Review: What bests describes this DVD is Cyndi Lauper as a complex mix of rock and roll queen, Janis Joplin, with a little Betty Boop thrown in for good measure. Cyndi Lauper is as unpredictable a singer, as what comes out of her mouth when she is casually addressing her audience, during her song breaks. She still has a little of that Betty Boop sound in her voice when she speaks. But watch out when she sings. I agree that her voice as never sounded more strong and powerful as it does in this concert and in this decade. This concert demonstrates that, when she's belting a showstopping rock version of Walk on By. It's the best version I've heard of this song. Kat Dyson does a fantastic job on lead guitar, along with William Wittman (Cyndi's long time collaborator). She is equally powerful on Money Changes Everything and the punk rocker It's Hard To Be Me. Another standout is the title track from her EP Shine. Beautiful vocals, and already a true classic. Cyndi had me cracking up in the bonus like-documentary, as she takes the viewers through a driving trip of her old Queens neighborhood. At one point her and her friends get lost, and Cyndi lets out more than a few expletives( the "F" word gets quite a work out from her). But, hey, it's Cyndi Lauper, so to me, it's non-offensive. I agree with the amazon reviewer that the audio and visuals are outstanding, and should be viewed in widescreen, to get the full visual effects. This is one excellent DVD that I highly recommend, and Cyndi Lauper's incredible talent is still in full force.
