    This song was written by Prince and he gave it to The Bangles. Prince was a huge supporter of female artists over the years, and was an early fan of The Bangles. This song jump-started their career. Great group...love their vocals and I don't think they get enough credit for their musical abilities.

    When Prince wrote this song, he had another jewel called 'Kiss'. Manic Monday hit
    #2 on The Charts and really solidified The Bangles as a top group. Meanwhile, as
    this song reached #2, Prince placed #1 above them with 'Kiss'. Man, that guy was
    a super talented writer for sure, as well as being a giving person, for allowing
    Susannah Hoffs to have Manic Monday for her aspiring young group. The original
    name of The Bangles was The Bang, but then they found out a New Jersey group
    already had it, so they went to The Bangles which actually fits a girl group even better.

      I second the nomination for "Hold On" by Wilson Phillips. The group name is derived from the last names of the group members, Wendy and Carny Wilson (daughters of Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys) and Chyna Phillips (daughter of John and Michelle Phillips of the Mamas' and the Papas') I think the song "Hold On" was supposed to be a message of encouragement for Brian Wilson who suffered from depression (among other things.)

    You’re absolutely right, this song did very well and was everywhere when it came out in ‘86.

    Now that you’re hooked on The Bangles, you need to check out The Go-Go’s. The Bangles probably wouldn’t have happened without the prior success of The Go-Go’s. Try “Our Lips Are Sealed” or, better yet, “We Got the Beat” (their signature song).

"What's The Matter Here?" is a tough song about abuse but it has an important theme. and finally "Because The Night" is their biggest hit, classic cover of Patti Smit hit. There probably two dozen excellent 10,000 Maniacs cjoices, these are three favorites.

    "Manic Monday" is a song by the American pop rock band the Bangles, and the first single released from their second studio album, Different Light (1986). It was written by American musician Prince using the pseudonym "Christopher" and was originally intended for the group Apollonia 6 in 1984. Lyrically, it describes a woman who is waking up to go to work on Monday, wishing it was still Sunday so she could continue relaxing.

    The lead singer in this song, Susanna Hoffs, sang the last two verses of "Walk like an Egyptian". They did a rock version of "Hazy Shade of Winter" (for a soundtrack). Most of the members of the band wrote and sang songs on the albums, but the de facto leader became Susanna. I'll always liked "In your room," Walking down your Street" and "Following" (Michael Steele wrote and sang). They were very versatile but underrated since they were a "girl band" in a male dominated industry. Which is exactly why Female Friday's is so important and fun.
