I don’t know any guy in my high school who didn’t have a major crush on her. Some of the girls in school may have, as well, but in the Eighties, we failed to make our LGBTQ+ classmates feel safe to come out.

Anyway, I had adolescent fantasies about all four of The Bangles at one time or another.

And, of course, their music was endlessly enjoyable.
