The Acorn Cover Cyndi Lauper

Cyndi Lauper recently collaborated with Basement Jaxx, Kleerup, Dragonette, and Scumfrog, among others, for her new album Bring Ya To The Brink and is currently on the True Colors tour with the B-52's, Regina Spector, Tegan & Sara, etc. In the meantime, looking back to Lauper's prime '80s period, Ottawa naturalist Poi Dog Pondering-esque folk crew (and environmental graphic design artists) the Acorn covered "Good Enough" from that Baby Ruth-pimping film The Goonies.
