Cyndi Lauper Believes That Modern Music is Too Sexual

Cyndi Lauper thinks modern pop music is too sexually-orientated.

The 59-year-old singer believes too many songs released now are about X-rated subjects and she is concerned about the effect it could be having on listeners. In an interview with the Metro newspaper, Cyndi - who is releasing her autobiography Cyndi Lauper: A Memoir this month - said, "One young woman walked up to me recently at a concert and thanked for me my work 'in the midst of all this rape music.' I never thought of it like that, but so much music nowadays is about sex, sex, sex and is quite aggressive. She called it rape music. I thought, 'Oh my God, I guess she's right.' I just try to write music that connects with people's conscience and make music for awake people rather than sleepwalkers."

The "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" hitmaker looked back on her entire life while penning her book, including her jobs before she became a pop star.
