It's obviously about Susanna Hoffs who seemed to draw male attention more than the others. On the Saw Doctors' song "I'd love to kiss the Blangles" they also refer more to Susanna but at least they also mention Vicky.
Love this song. Fulks is a rare gem and his anonymity is no reflection of his talent nor achievements. He is truly a musical chameleon and yet still instantly recognizable.
really cute vid. One minor quibble, I would have used footage from "Hero Takes A Fall" at the very beginning. Other than that, totally adorable. As adorable as Susanna :-)
You're right -- I must be a victim of Robbie's tomfoolery. I saw him at a show around the time of the release where he swore that even though everyone assumed he was singing about Susanna, it was really Vickie. But that's not the ongoing stance.
morren, I never had the privilege to see him in a live show so I envy you! I heard this song on a local radio station when this Cd was released and it just got stuck in my head and I bought the CD. Thanks for stopping by.
@arkgunslinger I don't think morren meant the song. We know it's about Susanna. I think what he was trying to say is that he finds Vicki Peterson more attractive. Personally, I'm glad to see some people vote for Vicki or Debbi Peterson as their favorite Bangle, just because I'm a woman and I get rather exasperated with all the fanboys falling over Susanna Hoffs all the time. Susanna is nice, but honestly, does no one like the other girls? Aren't they nice too? And yeeees, I'm a jealous witch. :P
Hey arkgunslinger, I tried to reply to your private message, but I kept getting internal server error. Glad you liked the photo of me with the Bangles. (Susanna is an exquisite beauty, even at 48. Jay Roach is one lucky man.)
Thanks man. Are you old enough to remember the Bangles? How about Susanna's eyes? check those eyes at 0:50 sec and you'll see why Robbie and few million other guys are in love with "that Bangle Girl" :->
Me being one of those guys. (BTW: I've met her TWICE. She's even more beautiful in person. The last time was back in August at the Cleveland HOB. 48 and as gorgeous as she ever was. :-) )
What did Susanna think about this song?

Thats's a pretty good tune and I may just do it. My problem right now is lack of free time to create videos. I'll keep your request in mind though!
thanks for checking out my channel & please give a listen to the Aces, Scott Miller & Paul Thorn videos also.

chuckschilling , you're welcome.
I love a few other of Robbie's songs but, they probably would be "flagged" :D

shaggycub, thanks.
Susanna is as adorable (or even more so) and still sings as great as she looks.

Hoffs is working with Matthew Sweet a lot in recent years. That's cool. Oh, and Robbie Fulks is fantastic. Any gendre, any time. He's a genius.

It's not about Susanna Hoffs; it's about Vicki Peterson.
morren 3 years ago
Sorry to disagree but it's definately about Suanna.
from Robbiefulks. com
"Also not to be missed is That Bangle Girl, his red-faced love- song crush on Susanna Hoffs and the '80s hit queens."
Clues are also in the lyrics
"I saw(sat through) her movie."
In 1987, Hoffs starred in a film, The Allnighter.
"When the little one took the mike"
Suanna was 'the little one'
