Outside of the one classic however, in 1979, Hazard wrote a song called "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" which later of course became a monster hit for Cyndi Lauper. Hazard changed careers a few times, became a collectibles dealer and eventually moved to Florida and then New York, but also continued to release independent folk music albums. Lilley went on to play with The Hooters. Robert Hazard passed away on August 5, 2008 from complications following cancer surgery, he was 59 years old. 1982-2007.
