Manic Monday, Redux

Last in my head on June 30, 2009. Wow, I can't believe I went the entirety of 2010 without waking up Manic Monday.

Noteworthy: I don't feel particularly manic this morning, nor is this a Monday. In fact, this is the fourth entry for "Manic Monday," and never once thus far has it been in my head on a Monday. This is the third straight Tuesday. Amber made reference to the song a few days ago, and I think that's why it's on the brain.

Manic Monday (redux)

Here's the original video, if you wanna see it.

This morning, and often when I'm cycling on this song, there is a part of the melody that segues nicely into "I was dreaming when I wrote this, forgive me if it goes astray" from Prince's 1999.

Manic Monday by The Bangles

Here's a nice acoustic version for ya, from a session at the House of Blues in 2002. Doesn't Susanna Hoffs look stunning? (She just turned 50 last month.) This song is in my head *a lot* - good thing I like it.
