The so pretty and sweet Susanna Hoffs. She was a real eye-catcher !! Even still is with 64 years !!
I was 12 when this song came out and even I had to stop and admire just how awesomely romantic this thing was. Heck, I think listening to this song is what first got me thinking how cool it would be to have a girl that felt like that about you.
Everyone was in love with Susanna back then and still are today she has not aged a bit
This was also one of the first and best 'love songs that worked for everybody'.
This old man was a British serviceman at that time, and this is still the best love song from that time.
I've Always loved the harmonies in this song
I’m sure I read that this song was written with The Beatles in mind, and you can certainly hear it in the harmonies. They did a fantastic job. It’s been one of my favourite songs since I was a little kid.
@@uhtreduhtredsson1721 Correct. They were big Beatles fans
@@uhtreduhtredsson1721 The Bangles were heavily inspired by the harmonies of the Beatles in general, not just on this song. You can hear it in their cover of Hazy Shade of Winter, too.
I love when Hoffs hits that high note going into the final chorus. She's a tiny girl, but has one HELL of a big voice.
I was 21 when this was released...where has the time gone
Love the Bangles and this classic is one of a kind beautiful.... love your reaction and lipsinging also... very romantic.... glad you love it also... thank you Angela..... great choice !!!!!!!!
Susanna Hoffs turned 64 this year. Now is the time to forget everything you thought you knew about beauty and age when you see her.
Very sweet song and nicely done. I'll always love Susanna and her shifty eyes from the 80s iconic Walk Like An Egyptian video.
Beautiful song! Thank you
Susanna Hoffs is amazing.
Hey, "Amazing " is too weak to describe Suzanna Hoffs!..she's so much more!
Beautiful new love lyrics...If anyone ever spoke these words to me, I'd know right where I belong and would do anything to make that flame eternal!
The Bangles' lead singer, Susanna Hoffs, co-wrote this tune. It seems that everyone, all around the world, can relate to it and love it. I met Susanna recently at a book signing. She was so nice.
It needs be said that the Bangles didn't have a lead singer. Hoffs got pushed by the label (not without reason; All the girls could sing, but Hoffs could SING, and she was by far the most marketable) and did most of their singles, but they all took their turns singing lead across the albums themselves (Debbi sang lead on Going Down To Liverpool, for instance). The label and media attention on Hoffs as the "lead singer" is part of what contributed to the breakup of the band in the first place (to her credit Hoffs didn't like that she was being promoted over the band, either).
Oh Angela, I believe an expression of love like this would be welcome at any age. In fact, I believe the song was written to appeal to all ages, the strings and harmonizing coming into play at the end of the song would perhaps appeal more to an older audience.
Awesome song .. Great reaction
This was my then girlfriend and now wife's song back in the day.
Susanna Hoffs was one of my earliest celebrity crushes, and even now, she's still on the list.
This song is ,,,there are no words!! The song was sung by an angel from heaven, and her orchestra, knocked it out of the park and the ball was never found !
Susanna Hoffs ❤😍
Susanna Hoffs, sigh.... I still have a crush on current Susanna.
Did you ever hear her cover of “Different Drum” that she did with Matthew Sweet?
Facts. 😂
Susanna STILL looks great at around 60 years old, as does Vicki Peterson, it's like they found the fountain of youth!
@@dggydddy59one of the most beautifuls songs of all the times, and Susanna one of the most beautifuls women of the world ❤❤
Digging all ur honest reactions… Bangles is … um … I had a crush on them all.. I understand the K-pop fans completely..lol
I was so in love with Susanna Hoffs
This band never got the recognition they deserved. They all could play well, they had lovely four-pat harmonies, and they wrote great songs, but all some people saw was four beautiful girls in a band and treated them like a gimmick.
You hit the nail on the head when you said the song sounded like a "young love" kind of song...To me it was... As a kid, I couldn't let the guys know that I loved this song and applied it as me and my gf's (at the time) song. I mean, I
was supposed to be a tough guy, right? .. someone who didn't lose himself in a sweet , romantic melody... I had a rep to uphold... y'know what I mean? But today, all these years gone by, I find myself not caring about who knows that I like the song. Of course my gf and I went different ways, with promises of getting back together, forever once basic training was done but that didn't happen. Listening to it today, I wonder what she did with her path in life and I wish that she found everything she thought she had in me and much more. God bless you Hilda, wherever you may be... ❤🤙🏾
Beautiful song, beautiful reaction.
Your interpretation spoke from my heart. Susanna Hoffs' intonation may be a bit shaky at times, but the sound of her voice easily makes up for it.
As an 'old' now, I feel massive appreciation for the hi-level art produced by the Bangles, Go Go's & other all-female groups. Bangles had great vocals & writing. The Wilson Sisters, for their genre, r the goats. The Pointer Sisters & other legends I'm forgetting.
I was working in record retail at the time, and the first single off that album “In Your Room” had just been released and was hitting the charts while the album had not yet been released. We, however we’re playing it frequently as a promo at the store before release and when I heard “Eternal Flame” as a cut off the album not only did I say that this would be the next single, but I also predicted it would hit number one. I was right on both counts.
One of my favorite Bangles song.
These are great; awesome theme!
I had such a crush on Susanna Hoff when I was younger.
Saw them in the 80's. Good stuff!
I was a young Marine Corporal when this was a hit - I remember it well from Gitmo, Cuba. Cheers!
Mmmmmmmmm Susana Hoffs.
Sweet, lovely song😊
Great wedding song🤘❤️to many folks were thinking that lead was the iconic, cyndi lauper
Great song
A masterpice 😍
Hazy Shade of Winter is my favorite by the Bangles
Hello, One of my Band mate Friends went out with one of the Girls, Oops I'm sorry it was Belinda Carlisle from the Go Gos
Great song. The version of this song by a band called Atomic Kitten is in my "getting it on" playlist lmao
Great slow dance song
Susanna Hoffs: Inward- & outward beauty. All the Bangles were legit - and fine (sorry). Bangles & Go Go's were total bad azzes! All could play instruments or sing well. Legends.
Susanna Hoffs ❤🔥
Written by Susanna Hoffs, Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg. Great 👍They wrote the upbeat song In Your Room.
Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg wrote for or with Pat Benatar, Cyndi Lauper, Heart (Alone), members of The Divinyls (I Touch Myself), Chrissie Hynde, the late Whitney Houston, RIP, the late Tina Turner, RIP, the late Roy Orbison, RIP. I list 2 below.
Suggested songs: 1 The Pretenders perform I Stand by You 2 Whitney Houston sings So Emotional.
Always loved this song. It and "Lost In Your Eyes" by Debbie Gibson. (react to it yet?). I was an on air DJ at the time playing these tunes.
ANGELA YOU PLAY & REACT TO SOME GOOD SONG ---YOUR THE BEST
❤️
Hmm....The line "I watch you when you are sleeping..you belong with me" doesn't seem to me a line spoken mainly by adolescents.. although some do get themselves into a position to utter such words. "Eternal Flame " clearly makes me think mainly of adults in exciting romantic relationships.
I don't see why this kind of love shouldn't last just because you've got to pay the bills as well? An eternal flame burns away all problems.
👍👍👍
Fun fact: Susanna Hoffs recorded this song completely nude.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😃👍🏻
Oh, the seduction in your eyes and smile!! Best.
This is a beautiful song, but it's also the only song to hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart that led to the break up of a group. Unknown to the three other ladies and even to Susanna herself, the record execs starting pushing Susanna to the "front" because they said she was the most "attractive." The other members of the group basically started to have more fights believing at first this was Susanna's doing, as she was also trying to make it as an actress. How the execs treated The Bangles for some is the same thing that happened with The Supremes. Instead of just letting talented women be talented women, they pick one and start putting wedges into the others. Sadly, for the sake of making money, you wind up destroying individuals that were given a gift by God and putting your trust into someone who doesn't do it back for you.
They reunited in the 2000's and been doing tours since.
As I understand it Hoffs herself didn't like being promoted as the frontwoman any more than the rest of the band did.
I will say that Hoffs DOES have the best voice of the four. They're all incredibly talented, but while the other girls can sing, Hoffs can SING.

if men arent beating down your door with flowers and candy, theres something very wrong with the world.
They have a few hits I like! They were a cheesy, cotton 🍭🍬 candy, bubble gummy 80's girls band, but they were 😎 cool! They were compared to the Go Go's, but each band had their own unique sound! That's my take, so goodbye for now!
You may like Roberta Flack just when I needed you
There are LOTS of great Bangles songs, although this isn't really one of them, their vocals are always fantastic. The other Bangles didn't care for this song at all when it came out.
I swear to God Ms Angela, CZcams blocks you from playing videos worse than so many others!!!
Doesn't seem fair at all.
