As Classic Pop magazine pointed out, it was also a fabulous time for "girlbands," which is why the outlet decided to rank the "top girlband singles of the '80s" (a daunting task, to be sure).
Since Classic Pop is a British magazine, some of the other entries on the list won't be as familiar to U.S. listeners; for example, Dutch three-piece girl group Mai Tai's "History" was listed at #8, pop duo Mel & Kim's "Respectable" was ranked #3, and "You're History" by Shakespears Sister nabbed the #2 spot.
"Co-written with the songwriting team behind similarly dramatic ballads by Cyndi Lauper (True Colors) and Heart (Alone), Eternal Flame was a marked departure from the new wave uptempo material that launched The Bangles to fame," wrote Classic Pop's Jon O'Brien, adding, "There’s hardly any drums for one thing, much to the frustration of manager Miles Copeland who believed the public weren’t quite ready for a beatless Bangles. Yet the track, partly inspired by a private tour of Graceland, became the quartet’s biggest hit, topping the charts on both sides of the Atlantic."
