CYNDI LAUPER - "Someone Like Me" (1993) (NILE RODGERS on guitar)

I've listened to this song several times, with headphones and at high volume. It's definitely NILE RODGERS playing guitar, it's his style. CYNDI LAUPER should have released this song as a single, and in addition to making a music video, it's one of the best songs on the album. Despite not being a single, the album track "Someone Like Me" received radio adds in Switzerland in June 1993 and in France in July 1993.
