What did Madonna have that Cyndi Lauper didn't?

Cindi Lauper talented?? Puh-lease, give me a break. I saw her when her first album came out opening for the Kinks. Saying she was dreadful is an understatement. The audience HATED her and couldn’t wait for her to leave. I was surprised her first album actually did so well. Chalk screeching on blackboards sounds better than her.

I didn’t think much better of Madonna and in a lot of ways she is a repulsive piece of garbage (putting pictures of John McCain next to Adolf Hitler during your 2008 tour is the hate speech so typical of Obama supporters). But she does have a knack of changing her style every 18 months to keep fresh.
