I prefer this album over their later stuff. This is one of my all-time favorite albums in general.

Songs like Eternal Flame and the emphasis on Susanna Hoffs over the other girls are what caused the Bangles to break up. They let themselves get directed into a very commercial avenue so, yes, they did sell out. There are good songs on every album they put out. I like the rock oriented sound they had on All Over the Place the best. But if some of you did Eternal Flame the most, more power to you. Everybody has a right to their own musical taste.

@Codeeist your starting to not make sense. guess i should expect that from someone who thinks a song with the line, "say my name, sunshine through the rain" is great. again, commercial does not always mean great. i cant expect someone like u to remotely understand what i, and many others here are talking about.

@fundies2 You are the one that said you don;t get other peoples opinion. I am just pointing out that virtually none understand yours. 6 nations liked the song and you post on line that you don;t understand why it is a good song. Oh well. Continue to not get it.

@fundies2 So now sounding "old" is better than "youthful"? Wow, I even I have not judged voice so superficially. I guess I would think that youthful wins. But I guess you like "mature". Do you like children? Or do you think they are stupid and worthless and should shut up and not sing?

Or eternal flame is their favorite and 5 other nations because it was a bad ass song.

@Sommelier97 u said it. it seemed like their image and creating pop "gems" became a priority with their later stuff.

@Codeeist I think Eternal Flame was a lot of folks favorite because that was when they started to listen to The Bangles. They remember the cheesy "Walk Like an Egyptian" video and then a while later Eternal Flame has this doe eyed Susanna Hoffs in it, it's a slow ballad, and people are like "This is my favorite Bangles song"... I remember this album and people weren't all that familiar with The Bangles. They were writing good music and lyrics. Then MTV ruined them.

@fundies2 Preach on...All Over the Place had some good stuff. They wrote good music on this album instead of later on where they were more concerned about making "cool videos"

@vhluc Amen...James, Going Down to Liverpool, and Hero Takes a Fall were all such good stuff before that MTV crap and the idea of making "cool" videos instead of writing good music.
