makes me think of a girl i should of gone out with (married even) in the 80's.oh my oh my what was i thinking when i turned her down.i regret it to this day.
Susanna is the most precious li'l lady in that band as we remember them in the later 1980s. They're all cute; I'd shove none from my bed. However, Susanna was absolutely beautiful. Watch that video again, ye who disagree, and then posit the question: am I being honest with myself? For if you claim one of the others tops Susanna Hoffs, you're just not...
@aflacduckquack I would have agreed with you in the 80's when I was much younger, but now that my tastes have refined and matured, I am not presently as inclined to agree.
Yo there is a new youtube star/band comming up I just found with an awesome girl singer that should be mentioned here. This band is going to be huge and they have an awesome video. NO joke just found these guys, totaLly worth checking out if you like pop punk rock music…..
I heard of them through a friend through facebook they are called Hey You! I would search “hey you band taking over” or they are on my page… just thought I’d spread the word.
This and manic monday are my fave bangles tunes. A girl group who write their own songs (yes i know prince wrote manic monday!) and can play their own instruments. God,i miss them! Also susanna was hot but debbie was the best!!!
This vid proved that all 4 girls could sing lead. The Bangles hit #30 in Bilboard, 6-24-89. God bless ya, for postin' it. Thanx! Shalom, Susanna Hoffs!
@skunape Well I would get my liscence plate with the name of my favorite band on it too! and certainly show them at a concert :DDD wouldn't everyone?!
I was at the concert where they filmed this video. Santa Monica Civic Auditorium. They asked all who were there to stick around after the concert for the video shoot. Great memories!
Always loved this song. Someone said it was released in 85', wrong!! It was the third single after, in your room, eternal flame... This would have been summer of 88-summer if 89.
@amethyst48 I liked all their voices better than Suzannah's if I'm being honest.
I was at the filming of this video. It was a concert they did at Santa Monica College. They had to stop the concert, so to speak, and lip synch this song 2 or 3 times.
Debbi Peterson should have done more lead vocals! This is the best song ever for me. I love The Bangles but lets face it Susanna was the face! Debbi is awesome!!
This filmclip was the last clip from their Greatest Hits VHS version of the same album. I remember having it in our house in early 1990 and the tape was so worn because they it was played so much. I've seen them 2 times in the last decade, and it's a shame Michael doesn't perform with them.
Michael looks absolutely ravishing, even with the hair. Great song of Debbie's. Too bad Susanna and Vicki thought they had to carry on such shenanigans to look sexy.
A guilty pleasure of mine.. The bangles were very underrated.. Love the video, love the song! An all girl rock band - one of the True 80's Hair Bands - without the heavy metal - But these girls were Rockin'! Great voices & Gorgeous... The epitome of the 80's in every way...
When this song was first released about 1985, I was stationed in Germany where it was real popular in their discos. I always thought it was some European disco type band, like Abba or something. Man was I ever wrong.
There's some very recent posts of them playing here in Austin Texas for the SXSW music festival on St Patrick's day.
Even though this song didn't chart well, I still think it was a great single to release. I much preferred this to Eternal Flame, In your Room and Manic Monday. I think it was well written by Debbie Peterson and sung. But most important is that the bass line by Michael Steele is outstanding and it is this that drives and carries the song.
Great song, I would love to see them in concert again. If anyone out there knows when they are around Montreal, Ottawa or even Toronto give me a heads up please, that would be awesome. Thanks JR.
@vampifan haha well no disrespect 2 prince hes a legendary singer songwriter and has written many tunes 4 many others so kudos 2 him thanx 4 the reply !! But the Bangles were an all playin all singin girl rock group not many girl groups can claim that and 1 of only a few male or female bands 2 actually sound better live than recorded!!
@HFWallaseybus I thought everyone did. At least every man I have talked to did. Michael is beautiful while Suzanna is just cute. I guess Suzanna got the younger boys all hot an bothered and they bought the records.
This, Going Down To Liverpool and Walk Like An Egyptian was proof that The Bangles had no "Lead Singer" in that they all could pull it off, but Columbia Records decided to mostly release the "Susanna Songs" as singles.
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
@jPapa2008 if you think they inspired "Ace of Base", I'm very sorry, but that's apples and oranges dude, you're comparing Power Pop with Synth/Dance Pop.
I think it was easy to be blinded by the fact that these were 4 beautiful women in a band. They were obviously so much more than that, writing their own songs, playing their own instruments, four strong vocalists and harmonies to die for.
They deserved much more success than they actually had. Songs like this one, I'll Set You Free, Following and In Your Room have stood the test of time and still sound fresh and vibrant today.
@GazzaCal123 Agreed that they deserved to have more success than they did, but they did have about three years (1986-89) where they were as popular as anybody. There are a lot of talented groups that never got that chance--and the Bangles are still performing today, still remembered fondly, and are still quite lovely. And yes, their music still sounds as relevant in 2010 as it did in 1989.
a decent 80's pop song. they look like bon jovi though. what happened to their rad 60s mod look? this is embarrassing. "hero(ines) take a fall" more like it...
Took my girls to see them in 2002ish... in Lancaster CA. They were FANTASTIC! I had no idea these chicks could rock. They have great hits from the 80's, but I found this band has so much more to offer.
They played a rock set that left me in WOW. This band is truly an all time great!
@soapwonder Are you nuts? They were way better than The Spice Girls. Not only in talent; but the fact that they played their own instruments. It's like, The Bangles MAKE music while The Spice Girls MANUFACTURE it. I've seen them in concert/in person, they're even much better sounding and looking.
@lakebay972 I said they were the original Spice Girls, not better then the Spice Girls, put on your glasses and read my comment again before you ask me if I am nuts! btw when I said Spice Girls, I meant as in Girl Group!
@soapwonder Bangles were ROCK who targeted to young adults (20s/30s) while Spice Girls were POP who targeted to kids and teens. Two different genres of music; with two different target audiences. It's practically an insult you'd even compare The Bangles to The Spice Girls. The Bangles had a ton of hits while The Spice Girls were basically one-hit wonders with "Wannabe." I don't have to ask if you're nuts. You already are!
@lakebay972 Noo.. The like the 80's verion of the spice girls not really compareing. There just a girl band that was very popular that decade thats how they relate to the spice girls. ^_^
Michael Steele was soooooooooooooooooooooooo hot well they all were but damn I wish i was the age i am now (18) in the 80s that would of been awsome =)
I fucking hate the 21st Century =( Horrible people, horrible music everything has just gone down hill and is still falling =(
We need time machines and we need them NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was that age at that time. The best word I could describe the 80's would be fun! Nobody at the time knew how the 80's music would develop. Many artists tried so many styles, and experimented with different sounds from the keyboards and guitars. Even the outfits and hair was just experimenting with different looks. It was probably the most eclectic decade, but it all worked.
@HKevlar1 Good post. I was in college '87 - '91. The music was so good I nearly overlooked the Berlin wall coming down! If I had to take one aspect of music and compare to today from the '80's, I'd say that the vocals were WAY better back then. They HAD to be, without autotune and the like.
@mrtamberineman123 Don't wish your years away, my friend. I'll be 50 this year - 20 doesn't seem that long ago. I don't think there's 30 years left for me - certainly not of young, vibrant, healthy life! Like Rodney Dangerfield once said: "I''m getting so old that they'll have to donate my parts to science fiction!". If you're 18, enjoy (but not too much!) the babes around you.
The three bangles songs people remember the most are "walk like an egyptian", "Eternal Flame" and "Manic Monday" but I think there are so many lesser known songs of theirs which are much better. They are brilliant !!!!!!!
@gmodesike I am talking about mainstream bands today. I can't really think of any who have had mainstream success, as in, you would see them regularly on TV etc.
@tealaced ha..kinda figured you were thinking that way..i see. the music industry has changed sooooo much in the past years..do u like nin? i ramble :)
Debbi has sung lead on 2 of the Bangles singles, Going down to liverpool and Be with you,. Michael sang lead on Following, and exept from Walk like an egyptian Susanna sang lead on all the other songs released as singles,.
Vicki is the only one who has never had a lead single released,. too bad,.
the fourth single that was going to be released from the everything album was Make a play for her now, written and sung by Vicki,
this video was shot in a afternoon,not much work behind it
When has there ever been another all girl band thats written awsome tunes like this and actully play instruments.All girls,all hot,all talented would love to see another all girl band like them around.
Yeah one of my fave Bangles songs or should I say one of the few I ever did like. More upbeat than just about all of their other songs I've heard. Their other song I really liked is their cover of Hazy Shade Of Winter. Nice video despite it just being every damn rock stage antic cliche.
makes me think of a girl i should of gone out with (married even) in the 80's.oh my oh my what was i thinking when i turned her down.i regret it to this day.

It was probably the most eclectic decade, but it all worked.

@HKevlar1 Good post. I was in college '87 - '91. The music was so good I nearly overlooked the Berlin wall coming down! If I had to take one aspect of music and compare to today from the '80's, I'd say that the vocals were WAY better back then. They HAD to be, without autotune and the like.

Yes, well, let's not forget Milli Vanilli. Point taken though, there were exciting things going on. As far as today, The Like is pretty cool.

@mrtamberineman123 Don't wish your years away, my friend. I'll be 50 this year - 20 doesn't seem that long ago. I don't think there's 30 years left for me - certainly not of young, vibrant, healthy life! Like Rodney Dangerfield once said: "I''m getting so old that they'll have to donate my parts to science fiction!". If you're 18, enjoy (but not too much!) the babes around you.

Probably my favourite Bangles song - not that I don't like Suzanne, but it was great that she wasn't on lead vocals for this :)

The three bangles songs people remember the most are "walk like an egyptian", "Eternal Flame" and "Manic Monday" but I think there are so many lesser known songs of theirs which are much better. They are brilliant !!!!!!!

Finally, a chartin' song with Debbi Peterson singin' lead on it. Just as good a singer as the other 3, right, gang? God bless!Hit# 30 in Billboard.

it's pretty sad that there were more female dominated bands in the 80s than there is today.

Debbi has sung lead on 2 of the Bangles singles, Going down to liverpool and Be with you,. Michael sang lead on Following, and exept from Walk like an egyptian Susanna sang lead on all the other songs released as singles,.
Vicki is the only one who has never had a lead single released,. too bad,.
the fourth single that was going to be released from the everything album was Make a play for her now, written and sung by Vicki,
this video was shot in a afternoon,not much work behind it

What a great song and great video.
It might be my favorite Bangles song.
Great video.
Actually, the girls are lip syncing the song from the record with crowd noise added in, it is not a live recording, but who cares, it's awesome.
How about a Bangles Reunion Tour!
Susanna, I love You!
Awesome Band!
Peace and Love,
Rob

While it goes without saying that we all love Susanna, for me the highlights in this video are Vicky and Micki. They look absolutely stunning! <3

Debbie Peterson's singing voice almost sounds like that of Christine McVie (Fleetwood Mac).

Yeah one of my fave Bangles songs or should I say one of the few I ever did like. More upbeat than just about all of their other songs I've heard. Their other song I really liked is their cover of Hazy Shade Of Winter. Nice video despite it just being every damn rock stage antic cliche.
