"A Night to Remember" is popular 1980s icon and singer Cyndi Lauper's third album (as well as a song on the album).

Album information

The album did not do as well as her previous albums, selling 500,000 copies in U.S.. Lauper toned down both her girlish sound and her friendly punklook for the album, which was released in 1989 when grunge rock music was becoming popular; it sold moderately well, receiving gold certification in US and many other countries, like UK, France, Brazil and Japan, but could not compare to the huge sales of her first two albums.

Lauper, and music critics, have noted the various battles she was having with Sony. The company was not keen on accepting Lauper as a songwriter and musician, as well as a singer and fashion and pop cultural icon.

The album was originally conceptualized as a project called "Kindred Spirit" and was going to be released with the track "Hole in My Heart (All the Way to China)", but when that song (and the film "Vibes") were unsuccessful it was repackaged. Some proof sheets of the original album artwork exist with the alternate title and track listing.
