It’s Cyndi Lauper’s 
61th Birthday!!!





June 22, 1963: 
Barbara Lewis, born just outside of Ann Arbor, MI (in Salem Twp.) hit  #2 with her self-penned "Hello Stranger"



June 22, 1963:
The Safaris' "Wipe Out" is released in the US, where it will enter the Billboard Hot 100 two weeks later and reach #2 by mid-August. The record would also reach #5 in the UK. The song would be re-issued in 1966 and climb to #16 on the Billboard Top 40 and again in 1970 when it failed to chart…
