Excerpt: "All Through the Night" is a song performed by American singersongwriter Cyndi Lauper from her debut album She's So Unusual. It was written by Jules Shear for his album Watch Dog, as a folk song. After The Cars recorded their own version, which they did not use on any of their albums, Lauper decided to cover it.

The song was the only single released worldwide by Lauper that did not have a music video. It peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Lauper's fourth top five single in the U.S. The song was mostly positively received by critics. An acoustic version was sung by Lauper on her 2005 album, The Body Acoustic. In this version, Shaggy provided backing vocals. The song was originally written by Jules Shear, and included on ...http://booksllc.net/?id=2148169 ... Read more
