Show Notes

"Eternal Flame" is another song that came into my head from out of nowhere. It just started playing in my mind on its own. I remembered the song, but I had never heard of (or don't remember) an all-girl band called The Bangles. The group was popular in the 1980s. Susanna Hoff, their lead singer, wrote Eternal Flame with songwriters Billy Steinberg and Tom Kelly. The idea came from a Cyndi Lauper song Hoff admired and from the eternal flame shrine near the Elvis Presley tomb in Graceland, where The Bangles saw it.

I still don't know why "Eternal Flame" barged unannounced into my head, but I'm glad it did. The song is BEAUTIFUL! Here's my cover.
