Cyndi Lauper – The Goonies ‘r’ Good Enough
Listen now
Description
Cyndi Lauper is an iconic pop star of the ’80s who penned a number of huge hits, including “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” and “Time After Time”. Unfortunately, she also performed “The Goonies ‘r’ Good Enough“. It’s a song based in the film The Goonies, except it has nothing to do with that film (except for the name). The video features WWF wrestlers, secret tunnels, and pirate adventures! It’s a little bit of everything, and it backs up a pretty lackluster track. Wes and Clay kick off a month where the videos are going to be themed as film tie-ins. The videos for the next few weeks will all feature a film as a prominent part of the experience. This week they discuss boyfriend managers, the last track of an album, and The Goonies (the film). * Listen to the songs we’ve covered!* Spotify Playlist* Listen and Subscribe: * Website* iTunes* Spotify* PocketCasts* RSS * Support the show:* Patreon* PayPal* Merchandise * Connect with us:* Wes on Twitter* Clay on Twitter* Facebook* Discord* E-mail
