#1 on Billboard: Cyndi Lauper "Same Ol' Fucking Story"

This year will be remembered as the year when two old Eighties rivals, Madonna and Cyndi Lauper, had a showdown. So far in 2008, both have scored #1 hits on the Billboard Dance Club/Play Chart. Madonna hit first with "4 Minutes" and Lauper has the current #1 with "Same Ol' Fucking Story".

"Story" was written by Lauper with New York DJ Richard More. Though it's not her first dance chart hit, the CD from which the track is taken is Lauper's first top to bottom dance album titled "Bring Ya to the Brink".

Released within a month of Madonna's "Hard Candy", "Brink" is set to give the current dance music Queen a run for the charts. "Same Ol' Fucking Story" is the second international single from "Brink".

The first single was the Japanese release "Set Your Heart". The CD is packed back to front with single worthy tracks like "Into the Nightlife".

"Sex and the City" Soundtrack: The Version You Won't Find in Stores!

Now that the "Sex and the City" movie is a bonafide hit, the soundtrack is climbing the charts. Upon listening to it several times, however, we were disappointed by the downtempo, folksy ditties that make up the majority of the CD.

Where, we wondered, are the classic and contemporary dance music tracks that the show was famous for? Rather than ponder the issue, we put together our own collection of song inspired by Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte.

"Strut" by Sheen Easton, "Into the Nightlife" by Cyndi Lauper, Kylie Minogue's latest single "The One", and Amber's "Above the Clouds" from the TV Series are just a few of the tracks that we think fit the spirit of the show and movie perfectly. Have a listen:

Cyndi Lauper "Bring Ya to the Brink"

Cyndi Lauper's latest CD is the dance inflected "Bring Ya to the Brink". Lead single "Same Old Fucking Story" is #5 on the Billboard Dance Club/Play Chart.

On this new CD, Lauper re-opens the competition with Madonna that started some 25 years ago. "Bring Ya to the Brink" is a head on Dance CD that gives Madonna's "Hard Candy" a run for the money.

"Same Old Fucking Story" is already a dance smash and the CD is packed with other potential singles. "Into the Nightlife" and "Echo" are instant Lauper classics.

Lauper is not the first pop artist to go the "top to bottom dance" route. Gloria Estefan did it in the late Nineties with her CD "Gloria". But no one since Cher's "Believe" has jumped genres so effectively and convincingly as Lauper has on "Bring Ya to the Brink". This one's a keeper and it's songs will become the soundtrack of summer 2008.
