Surely you are making this up, nobody would let Lauper try that, would they?

Yeah, I have the track on my pc somewhere, listened to it once. If I'm not mistaken, it was at a concert at the recently downed Berlin Wall, with Pink Floyd playing. Sinead sang Mother at the same event and its pretty good...

NINE MONTHS after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Roger Waters of Pink Floyd put together what is still one of the most ambitious outdoor concerts ever. Today it'd take 2 years to plan and fall apart before the first rehearsal!

The Wall Live At The Wall. Thomas Dolby, members of The Band, Bryan Adams (rockin like the 80s never let him), The Scorpions, Joan Baez doing 'Goodbye Blue Skies' still gives me goosebumps, and of course a zillion others I can't remember offhand.

It's on DVD. Cyndi did a surprisingly good live take on her part! Sinead O'Connor, who sang 'Mother', not so much...and if you watch the extras, you'll discover in one of the interviews that Roger Waters does NOT like her.
