Lyrics:
Stone the world is stone
It's no trick of the light
It's hard on the soul
Stone the world is stone
Cold to the touch
And hard on the soul
In the grey of the streets
In the neon unknown
I look for a sign
That I’m not on my own
That I’m not here alone

I love this tune originally sung by Quebequois singer Fabienne Thibeault in the French show Starmania (1978). "Le monde est stone" is very well known in Quebec and European francophonic countries, and has never left the top most loved songs ever since. Cyndi gives it a beautiful English version. Love you, Cyndi Lauper 💜

This is one of those hidden gems in a career that overall never got the attention and recognition it deserved. Everyone points out the major influence Madonna had on GaGa, however we should not forget the impact Ms. Lauper had on pop culture

A #2 smash in France in 1992 (a whopping 3 months in the Top 5) and the European Chart's #55 song of the year. It's a shame that grunge and rap (sorry, I like few of those artists) controlled the 90s market in America forcing great musicians off the pop radio stations in favor of music that has not stood the test of time. Cyndi, you are adored by many Americans who love vocal talents, and are adored worldwide! Cyndi won the Tony Award for being the first women to write a Musical Score by herself. What a LEGEND!

My very good friend Olivier.B died on 12th of July 1992 from free diving alone, we were 17. At that time this song was often on TV and it reminds me this tragic event. He was such a brilliant, smart and kind person. His parents never recovered from this loss. They are now gone too, may they found the rest.Today I listen to this song in his memory. RIP my friend Olivier.B you are still in my heart.

Stone the world is stone It's no trick of the light It's hard on the soul Stone the world is stone Cold to the touch And hard on the soul In the grey of the streets In the neon unknown I look for a sign That im not on my own That im not here alone As the still of the night And the choke of the air And the winners delight And the losers despair Closes in left and right I would love not ot care Stone, the world is stone From the far away look Without stars in my eyes Throught the halls of the rich And the flats of the poor Wherever i go Theres no warmth anymore Theres no love anymore So i turn on my heels Im declining the fall Ive had all i can take With my back to the wall Tell the world im not in Im not taking the call Stone the world is stone But i saw it once With the stars in my eyes When each colour rang out In a thunderous chrome Its no trick of the light I cant find my way home In a world made of stone

Reading the comments... do people not know this is a cover from the French Canadian (Québecois) rock opera Starmania?? Written by Michel Berger if I'm not mistaken. Still I adore Cyndi Lauper. Beautiful cover.

[@TheCloakedOwl]

Should have been a bigger hit for her here in the U.S. . Something so beautifully melancholy about this song. I listen to this on my darkest days when the world is, indeed, stone. Would love to see her re-record this with someone like Cher or Annie Lennox.

[@standafan4141]

The original song was extremely sad. It was written by a Canadian and a French singer/composer. The original is called Le monde est stone, as the original song meant the world is so messed up it feels like it is stoned as in not being rational. The rest of the French lyrics are about this woman who feels like hell and is so depressed she just wants to end it.

[@christopher5040]

[@standafan4141]

@@christopher5040 in fact, I would add that the French make a mistake saying 'je suis stone' as the English expression would be 'I am stoned'. The word 'stone' in French specifically relates to having smoked cannabis and feeling 'stoned' as people use to say in the old days.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia "Le monde est stone" (meaning "the world is stone") is a song written and produced by Michel Berger and Luc Plamondon for the 1978 Canadian-French musical Starmania. It was originally performed by Fabienne Thibeault and released on the Starmania album in 1978. The English-language version of the song with lyrics by Tim Rice, titled "The World Is Stone", was recorded by American singer Cyndi Lauper and released on the Tycoon album in 1992. Celine Dion recorded "Le monde est stone" for her 1991 album, Dion chante Plamondon.
