BANGLES:
Founded in 1981, they loved the music of the Beatles, LOVE, The Mamas & The Papas, and CREAM. With their mix of rock and pop, they celebrated in the 80s particularly with Monday song Manic Monday, Walk Like An Egyptian (the doctors had their song already been covered: go like an Egyptian) and the beautiful ballad ETERNAL FLAMES! But from artistic differences (whatever like that also mean ?!) they broke suddenly in 1989.
Personal remark:
When I heard the song GOING DOWN TO LIVERPOOL on the radio, it finally happened. I ordered this CD here at Amazon via overnight express, because I could not wait, they possess as soon as it gets and be heard by high volume on my system!
RATING:
5 stars for music lovers this greatest hits CD. A great assortment of bangles with rock and pop at its best. Susanna Hoffs recognizable voice and the backing vocals of the other three (who could also sing great), and the mastery of instruments made their music into something special. Exquisite compositions in which it is no wonder that they are often played on the radio!
CONCLUSION:
If She Knew What She Wants?
Yes!
