    Lyrics:
    I had to escape
    The city was sticky and cruel
    Maybe I should have called you first
    But I was dying to get to you
    I was dreaming while I drove
    The long straight road ahead, uh, huh
    Could taste your sweet kisses
    Your arms open wide
    This fever for you is just burning me up inside
    I drove all night to get to you
    Is that alright
    I drove all night
    Crept in your room
    Woke you from your sleep
    To make love to you
    Is that alright
    I drove all night

      Not at all... i think Cyndi knocked it out of the park, her voice as we never heard it, the edgy production and the video since it was 1989... it was very “Cyndi” - Celine’s well, it was supposed to serve a different purpose for Chrysler hence the spin of eurodisco. I was 14 in 89 - only now in my 40s I appreciate Cyndi’s artistry... never too late ;)

      Celine and Cyndi are grand although, I actually prefer Rob Orbison's version - he wrote it after all. However, Cyndi and Celine's vocals are just stellar and both deserve praise and do the song more than justice!
      EDIT: Apologises, Roy Orbison didn’t write this song as I’ve been told. It was actually written by Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg.

    I cant believe Im 50 years old, have seen this video hundreds of times over 34 years (its one of my favorites), and I think I just now understood the story in the video:
    She never made it.
    There was an accident (with the wrecked white car) and now shes haunting the lonely stretch of desert road in her Chevy coupe and lingering in his apartment near the Vegas strip. She always sees it as she imagined with him sleeping. Waiting for her.
    Shes still driving. Dying to get to him. All night.
    Forever.

      OMG “But I was dying to get to you.” And she did literally. Also “I was dreaming while I drove” She fell asleep on the wheel while driving all night, dreaming about her lover. “This fever for you is just burning me up inside” I think this is the instant her car crashes, the climax of her fantasy, burning for her lover in her dream while burning in real life from the car crash.

      Cyndi's version was released before Roy's. Cyndis in 89. Roy's in 92. Although Roy did record it in 87 as a demo, it never got released until 92 because he had no record contract at the time. Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg wrote the song trying to capture Roy's style. Which they done perfectly.

I said YES! lol. I can't believe so many just think of her as that song, when there's this song, Time After Time, All Through The Night, True Colors and more which either hit #1 or came close and are very mature songs. Girls is great, but I'm upset so many forget great music. I'm thrilled though she has had a #1 selling Broadway album, #1 Blues album, and a #1 dance album all in the last 15 yrs!

      From Wiki:
      "'I Drove All Night' is a song written and composed by American songwriters Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly and originally intended for Roy Orbison. Orbison recorded the song in 1987, the year before his death, but his version was not released until 1992. Cyndi Lauper recorded the song and released it as a single for her A Night to Remember album. Her version became a top 10 hit on both sides of the Atlantic in 1989."

    I'm sorry. I know that I'm going to be in the minority on this, but I think this is by far the best version ever released. She killed it. As a previous poster said, "This was her most mature and underrated hit." I like it much better than Celine Deon's version. It's so beautifully done. The cello's just put it over the edge. Unbelievably romantic and passionate. I agree - "no one beats Cyndi's performance of this song."

      Yep! Cindi sure sang this song way before Celine and Cindi's version is way way way much much much better than Celine's. Song was originally intended for Roy Orbison who recorded it in 1987 a year before his death but wasn't released until 1992. By the time his version was released Cindi who already was very popular and famous sang the song 3 years earlier. Celine only sang her version in 2003.

    Cyndi Lauper She grew up in an abusive environment and spent two weeks in the woods alone with her dog after leaving the abusive family. . I grew up in an abusive family and will be the first to say it totally destroys one and makes them open to strange and perverse directions. Kids growing up with strong families are so much more adjusted and don't have to deal with the emotional damage which I deal with on daily basis.

      +Rich Jacob who deleted their comments! Yea, same old story. My sisters tell me the same thing, even to point that I was responsible for being too sensitive as twelve year old kid. I'm not a psychologist but all I know is I grew up with extremely low self-esteem. How do you fix that? I was told how worthless and stupid I was
      from 11 to 18. I grew up with a volatile father who would slap me across the floor for dropping my fork at the table. Abuse does permanent damage to a kid. Those in the war knew what could happen, even though that probably didn’t make things easier, but a 12 year old kid is an open book and handled wrong???

    "I Drove All Night" is a song written and composed by American songwriters Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly and originally intended for Roy Orbison. Orbison recorded the song in 1987, the year before his death, but his version was not released until 1992. Cyndi Lauper soon covered the song and released it as a single for her A Night to Remember album.

    • @likonatera7452

    Cyndi Lauper not only gives a powerful, outstanding rendition of the song, she's also an actress here as well. I like Celine Dion but her version of "I Drove All Night", good as it is, didn't quite do it for me; it doesn't seem to have the heart and passion of the Cyndi Lauper version.. Many years ago on the radio I heard just a bit of Cyndi Lauper's singing "I Drove All Night" and have never forgotten it. That says something about Cyndi Lauper's talent: decades after hearing a few moments of her singing I went looking for the song in its entirety.

I just remember fancying the pants off Cyndi at the time, but back then as a 14 year old I had a permanent hard on. Just found and watched this epic and I’m absolutely in love with Cyndi. She is magnificent, beautiful, talented and so so quirky and cool.

I listened to Celine Dion's "interpretation" of this song and I couldn't listen to it all the way through.
