For Tom Gray, the song that best sums up his career is one he wrote himself, "Money Changes Everything." If the title could be extended for further accuracy, it might come out something like "The Song 'Money Changes Everything' Changed Everything." Fans of singer Cyndi Lauper will recognize the ditty, just as much as anyone tuned into the early days of MTV and the radio hits of 1984 would remember it. The song actually originated in the early '80s, when Gray commanded a band called the Brains from his position behind the keyboards.
