tomycheJun 2, 2008Her best album since her debut. Into the nightlife will definitely be a dance hit and could possibly be her first chart hit since I Drove All Night.

[Anonymous]May 30, 2008it's a rhytmic album folks; it's not meant to be marketed as a dance album...cyndi states it's a record with a lot of rhythms. Grab a Hold and Rain on Me rekindle the unusual/true color days. it's a treasured gem like Hat Full of Stars.

CarlosR.Jun 12, 2008A great surprise. Maybe two or three songs need some remixes to be improved. Same Ol' story and High and mighty are too long. My favourites songs are Set your heart, Rain on me, Rocking chair and Same Ol' story as well. Anyway the album is wonderful.

AugustoZ.May 30, 2008The best ever...lyrics and voice! She ever found her way...no matter what people say. Not a product...just a great singer and composer.

MarcioLGJun 2, 2008The new Cyndi's fulldance album is a surprise. Never expect the 80's sound revival so welldone like in "Rain on Me" and "Raging Storm" (a lost Pet Shop Boys discotrack).

TyZ.Jun 21, 2008This is the best cd of the summer SONY deserves its financial problems if they do not promote the hell out of it will do everything for Cyndi that SHINE should have!

AnonymousAug 20, 2008I've had the honor of knowing Ms. Lauper for many years. She is incredibly talented and a true artist. This album is one of her best. Among my favorites are "Raging Storm" and "Rain On Me", a haunting ballad reminiscent of "Time After Time". Please support her by buying this album. I assure you it will quickly become one of your favorites.

aaloMay 31, 2008This is a wonderfull album. of course is not the same as a confessions on the dance floor. at least cyndi is more original she didn´t use any sample cover for any of her songs. and she can sing, we cannot say the same of Madonna.

-
SteevenS.Jun 16, 2008Sounds like a newer version of she's so unusual, new vibe and very up to date. My younger friends are enjoying it, their comments were "and who would of thought? Cyndi Lauper?
-
-
SueD.Jun 16, 2008Awesome return...puts Kylie and Maddie to shame...learn ladies learn!! ...One or two minor fillers but allowed for in scoring by containing some absolute scorching soon to be classic top toons... All bow before the altar that is Ms Cyndi.

May 17, 2011One of Lauper's best albums yet. Such a shame it didn't do as well as it should have. :(
Oh well, that's the music buisness for you. Personally my fav track is Into The Nightlife. -
Sep 8, 2020Una joya total, esto merecía ser tan exitoso y masivo como lo fue She is so Unusual ya que cada canción suena a un potente hit y es muchísimo mejor que Hard Candy (Madonna), The Fame (Lady Gaga) y One of the Boys (Katy Perry), los cuales salieron al mercado el mismo año.

Feb 14, 2022Completamente inovador e a frente do seu tempo, queria mais músicas pop e eletro assim

May 26, 2011Such an amazing album, not just catchy it has meaning, every song has it's very own soul and the beats are so special, Into The Nightlife is such an incredible song.
Awards & Rankings

There's an overall retro feel to the production that will no doubt delight minions, but those same faithful are old enough to appreciate meaning behind the melodies.
-
Brink never reaches a full serotonin explosion like "Confessions on a Dancefloor," but at least Lauper has taken after the competition and found a new groove.
-
If still a bit too far from the mainstream to make for a full-fledged commercial comeback (which "The Body Acoustic" might have provided if not for Sony's "rootkit" debacle), Bring Ya to the Brink recaptures Lauper's artistic relevance and stands as a hipper alternative to Madonna's "Hard Candy."
