Lauper's band Blue Angel had been signed, flopped, dropped their manager and were then sued by him. Lauper was forced into bankruptcy. From there she set about singing in clubs in New York and essentially restarting her career. She was spotted by a manager who took her on and got her signed to a label as a solo artist.
The resulting 'debut' album is "She's so unusual" which boasted 7 singles including hits like "Time after Time" and "Girls just want to have fun" saw Lauper for a while in close competition with Madonna for the "Queen of Pop" moniker.
