@@YouBettaGetYouAhhJeniffer She went to his studio to pick up the demo tape and his secretary just handed it to her and she left, bummed out that she didn't meet Prince. Then Prince found out she came to pick up tape and the secretary didn't tell him. "You didn't tell me she was here!"
You want a seriously '80s-kid nostalgia memory? I first heard this at a skating rink. That I was at because of a school trip. I literally had pastel plastic bracelets on and crimped hair at the time. XD
There was a time when a group's ability to switch styles between songs, and to switch tempo, key and melody etc within the same song were taken for granted. It shows how severely the quality of most popular music today has declined.
The Bangles themselves did not recognize any single member of the band as the lead singer. Different songs had different lead singers, and, on some songs, like "Walk Like an Egyptian", different members of the band were lead singer on different verses of the song. With that said, the promoters and image managers were quick to seize on Susanna Hoffs (the lead singer on this song) as a focus for marketing the group because she had those Hollywood good looks, and it is they, rather than the band members, who habitually named Susanna Hoffs as the one and only lead singer. It was one of the factors that created friction within the band and led them to part ways. Luckily for us all, they have reunited a number of times in recent years. Another good Bangles song to try out is "Manic Monday". Prince wrote that song for the Bangles and they definitely did it justice.
To be fair, I don't think it's hard to argue that Hoffs had the best voice in the group (all of the girls were talented singers in their own right, and they excelled at vocal harmony, but Hoffs was on a different level) so it makes sense from a marketing perspective to focus on her. It sucks it damaged the relationship between the girls and led to the band's breakup, though.
All the girls had their place in the band - some played instruments, had backup voices, absolutely no shame in that. Those are highly needed in any band. The band would have no success without them. But Hoffs clearly was the lead singer and the cute one. If the other ladies could have gotten over it, and just allowed the success to continue, they'd have more top songs. But we all know how to piss of a woman: put her next to a prettier woman.
I had the biggest crush on the lead singer in the 80s when i was 9yrs old. This song gives me chills to this day. It really is a beautiful song. Im a punk rock fan too.
I got together with my man when this song came out, 1988, I was 14 and he was 15, we are married now with 2 grown up boys, we’ve just become grandparents 3 months ago. Memories aye 😘
Hazy Shade Of Winter, they were especially proud of that one. Hero Takes A Fall, In Your Room, Walking Down Your Street, please, please, but Hazy Shade Of Winter next.
The Bangles had four knock-em dead lead vocalists, all of whom are equally adept at singing harmonies. Susanna Hoffs (here) and rhythm guitar, VIcki Petersen, lead guitar, and Debbie Petersent (blonde) drums, and Michael Steele played bass. They evolved through bright garagey rock to rock to more of a pop sound, usually all on the same record. First class!
my oldest was a little boy when this was popular and used to like to side before bed and this song was literal for him he would hold my hand and sing with me - lol now he says this is what we will dance to when he gets married and screw anybody who doesn't get it. One of my coworkers who knows how he loved it as a little boy cries every time she hears it at the thought of him holding my fingers and singing his little heart out
Chris Try to listen and check out Eternal Flame and Going Down To Liverpool, Manic Monday, Hero Takes The Fall, and In Your Room and Walk Like An Egyptian the classic song that was forget for the reaction and rest of the bangles songs
In the 80s, sometimes a band would write what is called “romantic music.” This lost art is difficult to explain these days. The best way to understand it is to think of a modern song about someone who can’t stand their ex. Maybe “We are never ever getting back together.” This is the exact opposite of that.
Susanna Hoffs the brunette singer for this song was the lead singer. On Walk Like An Egyptian they split up vocals among 3 band members but all of them sang together for the chorus. React to their songs Walking Down Your Street, September Girls, If She Knew What She Wants, Hazy Shade Of Winter and In Your Room please.
First song my boyfriend played to me when we met in 1989. We've now been together thirty one years, married for 15 of those years, now that's an eternal flame. ❤️🔥
8:06 That's what I think, too. Variety's the spice of life! As for the Bangles, they started out with no lead singer, but the press and their management started focusing on Susanna Hoffs, the lead singer in this song. It caused tensions in the band and they broke up in 1989, but reformed in 1999/2000.
Once you see Susanna Hoffs in this video, it's hard to think if a more beautiful woman has ever existed. Amazing song, too! It was number one in the UK during the Hillsborough football disaster, which makes it very memorable to lots of Liverpool fans. We even have an 'eternal flame' at our ground, Anfield.
Going Down to Liverpool, Hero Takes a Fall, Be With You, Walking Down Your Street, If She Knew What She Wants, Manic Monday, In Your Room, Hazy Shade of Winter.........all good Bangles songs
Best reaction ever! I was 6 in the summer of 1989 when this first came out and I will never forget it! That particular summer was actually so warm in N Ireland and I loved this song and Madonna “Like a prayer” Awesome memories ♥️♥️♥️
Yes, this is really the same group. 🙂 Susanna Hoffs is the lead singer, but they have some songs where they take turns covering the lead vocals, like Walk Like an Egyptian or their cover of Hazy Shade of Winter which would be a great song for your next Bangles reaction. Great reaction! Keep it going!
more Bangles? Personally would love to see you react to "if she knew what she wants", but the general public may prefer "Maniac Monday" or "Hazy Shade of Winter"... so we'll see how it goes :-)
Susana Hoffs is a such TINY little thing to have that HUGE voice. And she has eyes you can lose yourself in. BEAUTIFUL (even at 60, now, she's still gorgeous). Technically the Bangles were an ensemble and didn't have a lead singer, however the label very quickly recognized that Hoffs was the most marketable and the best voice of the group (the other girls were no slouch, but as you can see on this song that Hoffs was on a whole other level). Sadly, the increasing focus on Hoffs was part of what caused the friction that led to the group's original breakup. The reunited maybe 20 years ago and have been playing together since, though bassist Micki Steele left the group again a number of years ago.
No band ever sticks to just one kind of music. Every rock band has their ballads. KISS has "Beth", the Rolling Stones had "Angie", Guns And Roses had "November Rain".
ACDC was always a running joke. People would say they only wrote three songs and they just switch up the lyrics. One of the members, I don't remember which one, was asked in an interview one day how he felt about that being said about them and he said "That's bullshit. We only ever wrote ONE song!" It was really funny. I've seen them in concert a few times. They are one of the best shows out there. But their music IS definitely 3 chord rock...LOL
@@SchwarzeWitwe2 oh, I don't. But it was the innocent sounding gateway kids used back in the day. The one song they could play for their parents, to get them to agree to buy the album.
They rock and they have ballads and stuff in between. For more rock check out Hazy Shade of Winter. For something in between try Manic Monday, written by Prince.
There's a cover of eternal flame. Was recorded in 2001 by a girl group named Atomic Kitten. Also Susanna Hoffs gave them (Atomic Kitten )a song named Love doesn't have to hurt. And on RUclips there's an audio where Susanna Hoffs sings Love doesn't have to hurt.
One of the things that I love most about your reactions is that you have the ability to connect and actually feel the music across many different genres. These are songs that many of us grew up with and it is such a joy to see YOU enjoying them for the first time!
Subbed about 4 songs ago I was over in the Philippines when this came out. They used to be 3 deep around the juke box playing this endlessly. They are a really nice sentimental people. This woman looks just as good now as she did back them. (Susanna Hoff'?).
Yes, the lead singer is Suzanna Hoffs. They Bangles switched up singers all the time, but Hoffs was the lead on almost all their radio hits. They are my favorite 80s girl band.
I had the privilege of growing up in the 80s during the best ERA of variety of Music there ever was! So I just love watching first time reactions to 80s groups and music! You all need to take a break on the music today and go back and experience the music of yesterday! #BRINGBACKTHEEIGHTIES
Everyone always throws the word underated around but truth is, the Bangles were very underated their harmonies were as good as it gets and they could actually play their instruments. Also this particular bass player was one of the original Runaways so they even have a little LA Street cred. Great reaction.
I was managing a record store in 1988 and when we got this album as a promo before this was a hit I said this will be their next single and will go to #1. Just a few weeks later I found out I was right. Very mesmerizing and touching tender ballad.
Tender and great.. The inspiration for this big hit came to them while they were on Tour In Memphis.. After their show, they went on a private tour of Graceland.. They were in the Meditation Garden where Elvis was put to rest.. For the last 40 years, they're is an Eternal Light that shines 24/7.. They wrote the song on the plane ride back to LA.. Even in Death, Elvis is still giving, and giving..
Susanna Hoffs.....I believe she currently works as a Dominatrix. I salute her! That takes stuff I don't have anymore lol. Beyond that, she was the best singer of the Bangles, but as a group, they were nearly magical. I miss them.
Susanna Hoffs was the petite drop dead gorgeous angel who everyone had a crush on!
Not had a crush on, Has a crush on!
@@david.s251 Amen!
Some of us prefer Micki. :-)
Am eternal crush in my case lol
She still gorgeous.
Add another young man who has fallen in love with Susanna Hoffs.
I fell in love with her all over again after recently seeing her do a solo accoustic version of Eternal flame
Aye !!
Young man? I had my first girl crush on her. :)
Back in the 80s, at my h.s. all the girls were into the Bangles look, especially Susanna,..😃🤔😅😎
Both my hands are raised here. She is a complete smoke show. 😃
Hazy Shade of Winter is one of their best--a rockin' cover of a Simon and Garfunkel song 💗
My fav...
i agree ☝️
A favorite. I mean you can't really go wrong with The Bangles.
One of those rare cover versions that I prefer to the original!
Hazy Shade of Winter from the 1980s Generation X film with Robert Downey Jr. and James Spader has LOTS of Power. Definitely check it out!
Haha, I don't think any man has ever seen Susanna Hoffs without loving her 😂 .
She was gorgeous, still is. Even Prince was charmed by her. Wrote a song for her.
What song? I love Prince and the Bangles
@@YouBettaGetYouAhhJeniffer Manic Monday
Did you see her doing karaoke? She still looks damn good.
Yes, I though so as well.
@@YouBettaGetYouAhhJeniffer She went to his studio to pick up the demo tape and his secretary just handed it to her and she left, bummed out that she didn't meet Prince. Then Prince found out she came to pick up tape and the secretary didn't tell him. "You didn't tell me she was here!"
Susanna Hoffs, a beautiful voice to go along with the beautiful face!
I love The Bangles. This song was huge when it came out.
Yeah. I was in high school when this came out and had the biggest crush on Susanna Hoffs!
@@jimhsfbay All of the boys did. 😆
I think she's even more beautiful now...
@@jimhsfbay absolutely breath taking!
She's look after herself, too!
@@kathyjam2482hii😊
Susanna Hoffs is 61 years old now. Blows my mind, but I'm 56. Where did the time go?
And she looks just as beautiful
@@bethshadid2087 Was just going to say the same, still looks great.
Susana is the perfect girl - time tested and just as hot as ever today!
I was born the same year as Susanna - I think she is even more beautiful now - no big hair or ton of make-up just natural beauty
It goes fast as hell. I'm 36 and I feel like we're wearing the same shoes. I was 15 two days ago
Rock bands usually have their slow songs too. They were called Power Ballads.
I kissed my first girl in 1988 when I was 13 years old. This was the song that was playing. This song is nostalgia overload for me.
What a memory!! Wow..Hold onto that! :)
I lost my virginity to this song.
Stallion 😀
My first kiss was to "Still loving you" but had I been younger It would have been to this :) !
You want a seriously '80s-kid nostalgia memory? I first heard this at a skating rink. That I was at because of a school trip. I literally had pastel plastic bracelets on and crimped hair at the time. XD
This song was playing on the 11/6/1989 the day my son was born ❤
Check out Manic Monday; it was song that Prince wrote
He wrote Walk Like An Egyptian too.
@@MavenCree No, he didn't.
Prince wrote Manic Monday for Vanity 6 😂, when they fell apart he gave it to Susanna because he wanted her lol
Love love that song! It's one of my kareoke go to song, along with Eternal Flame.
Awesomeness!!! 👊🎵🎶🎼⛈️😍
All these years later and my uncle still says, “Susannah Hoffs, that’s my girl!”
There was a time when a group's ability to switch styles between songs, and to switch tempo, key and melody etc within the same song were taken for granted. It shows how severely the quality of most popular music today has declined.
Manic Monday is another great one by The Bangles. 🕊🌎🕊

The bangles were a cool group. This is my favorite song of theirs. I think it’s beautiful ♥️
The Bangles, Beautiful Susanna Hoffs in the 80's and just so beautiful today.
I think this is one of the purest, most beautiful songs ever written
Susanna Hoff, Belinda Carlisle and Elizabeth shue was my childhood crush lol i swear they age like fine wine!!
Elizabeth Shue...😍😋💥👍😅😁...Yowza!!
Not saying this to be a smart-ass but it's Elisabeth Shue with an 's' and somehow that always just made her seem even more attractive to me.
Adventures in babysitting!!
Susanna Hoffs is still beautiful, I just watched a video she made during CONVID-19!
My God me and every other guy back in the eighties were so in love with the lead singer. So sweet and beautiful.

Yes!

Head over heels
I thought they were saying.. "Alex the Seal'
5:52 Love the perfectly timed wave breaking and crashing. This video is as beautiful as the song.
They were all gloriously talented and beautiful.
The singer of this song, Susanna Hoffs, was the lead for most of their songs, but they did harmonize a lot together.
First watched the music video as a little kid and I remember being in the top charts back then.

Why does this sound so much better now than it did then? Like, a lot better. 🤩
Manic Monday, In Your Room, Hazy Shade of Winter.... So many more songs by them for you to react to.
Going Down to Liverpool, Hero Takes a Fall, Be With You, Walking Down Your Street, If She Knew What She Wants, Manic Monday, In Your Room, Hazy Shade of Winter.........all good Bangles songs
I agree with you...this song is in a category all it's own....so tender!
Gorgeous and melty from beginning to end😍

Prince was smitten by her, gave her a song he wrote, 'Manic Monday'.
It was kept from the number 1 chart spot by Prince's 'Kiss'.
Love the Bangles! All of these ladies in the band can sing and can offer different styles of singing!
The Bangles first studio album "All Over the Place" I belive was titled as such because their music was varied and all over the place!
more Bangles? Personally would love to see you react to "if she knew what she wants", but the general public may prefer "Maniac Monday" or "Hazy Shade of Winter"... so we'll see how it goes :-)
Very underrated song
Great choices. Also - “Hero Takes a Fall” and “More than Meets the Eye” off their first album.

No one ever reacts to “Hazy Shade Of Winter”
Also a great one, and another switch up for the band.
Yip, I had a massive tween crush of the Bangles back in the days. Loved this song
The sway you got goin around 6 minutes is LIFE. Love you man!
If I never had a clue what Susanna Hoffs looked like, I would be in love with her just because of her voice.
This was huge when it came out. We all sang along to all their songs. Beautiful voice.
You're our kinda people. Stay open, 60's 70's and 80's music will "feed" you
There’s something unreasonably wholesome about seeing someone share music that you find magical. ❤️

Aww, nostalgia just hit me. Going back in time ❤️80’s
Bought this single when I was 12yrs. Loved it!
Man this takes me back! Those were the best days of my life.
Susanna Hoff was every guys dream girl at the time. This song was even more so calling all the guys.
Irene Cara, ‘what a Feeling’. You’ll love it
I was about to suggest the finale song from Fame. I guess I will :))
The Bangles first hit song was Manic Monday. It was given to them because the writer knew it would be a hit, PRINCE!
He was trying to date Susanne Huff 😂
Oh this is so pretty. I haven't heard it in years. Thanks to the people who requested your reaction.

Yes.yes.yes.
Pretty much every 80's rock bands at one ballad on each of their albums. That was the formula back then.
First song my pre-teen son became interested in. Those were the days.. :)
