THE BANGLES- MANIC MONDAY

Classic! "Manic Monday" is an iconic song by the Bangles, released in 1986. It was the lead single from their album "Different Light" and was a huge hit, reaching number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song's lyrics, written by Prince (yes, that Prince!), describe the feeling of relief and joy that comes with the end of the weekend and the start of a new week. The song's catchy chorus, "If it takes a little longer", has become one of the most recognized and beloved lines in pop music. The Bangles' version of "Manic Monday" featured the signature harmonies of Susanna Hoffs, Vicki Peterson, Debbi Peterson, and Michael Steele, and the music video became a staple on MTV in the late 1980s. The song remains one of the band's most popular and enduring hits, and its influence can still be heard in many contemporary pop and rock songs.
