Like Tegan and Sara? Good. Like Cyndi Lauper? Also, good. Because how could a Tegan and Sara cover of “Time After Time” go wrong?  The talented twins took on Lauper’s ’80s classic and strip it down for Billboard’s Candid Covers series.

“We were lifetime fans. She was always an influence. We started out in a punk band and they said it was like a cross between Cyndi Lauper and the Minny Pops and I remember thinking it was the best compliment we had ever been given,” said Sara Quin of Lauper.
