It’s your fun day because you get to listen to another episode of THE STORY SONG PODCAST! Join your hosts for their review of the 1986 pop hit, “Manic Monday,” performed by The Bangles and written by the artist formerly known as Christopher, but mostly known as legendary singer/songwriter Prince. In this episode, we discuss Rudolph Valentino and his logical 1980s successors, the gradual realization of just how long it takes you to get to work, and the fact that Saturday also exists. You don’t have to run to this episode, but you probably should. Make your bed and make some noise for this episode of THE STORY SONG PODCAST!
