I’ll Never Be Through With YouThe Bangles

Songwriter: Charlotte Caffey Vicki Peterson Susanna Hoffs

Producer: The Bangles Matthew Sweet

I’ll never have you completely
But somehow I don’t care
I don’t want to give up this feeling
Deep as the ocean
Floating on air

And I wish you could love me
Like I love you
And I wish you would leave me
But I’ll never be through with you

Say goodbye
And I will let you go
Darling
I will never be through with you

You’ll never see me crying
No you won’t taste my tears
‘Cause you slip away in the darkness
Before the morning light
Makes this heartache clear

And I wish you would want me
Like I want you
And I wish you’d believe me
That I’ll never be through with you

Say goodbye
And I will let you go
Darling
I will never be through with you

And I wish you could love me
Like I love you
And I wish you would leave me
But I’ll never be through with you

Say goodbye
And I will let you go
Darling
I will never be through with you
No, no never be through with you
I will never be through with you

The Bangles

The Bangles are an American pop rock band originally part of the Paisley Undergound movement that’s been described as “sunshiney Beatles pop”. They are best known for their internationally successful ‘80s singles “Manic Monday”, “Walk Like An Egyptian”, and “Eternal Flame” and have been called “perhaps the biggest all-female rock group of the 1980s”.

When their friend/bassist quit their band The Colours, sisters Debbi & Vicki Peterson’s newspaper ad was answered by Susanna Hoffs. They renamed themselves The Bangs and released “Getting Out Of Hand” on their own record label in 1981. Airplay on KROQ FM attracted Miles Copeland (IRS Records / Go Go’s) who signed them to his short-lived label Faulty Products and became their manager. When a New Jersey band claimed ownership of the name The Bangs, they changed their named to The Bangles and released their self-titled debut EP. Bassist Annette Zilinskas was added to the group in time to be included on the artwork, but not on the recordings. The Bangles then toured with English Beat.

Zilinskas was replaced by ex-Runaways bassist Micki ‘Michael’ Steele before the group’s 1984 debut album All Over The Place, released on Columbia Records. Despite its two singles “Hero Takes A Fall” and the Kimberly Rew-penned “Going Down To Liverpool” modestly charting only in the UK, the album still reached #80 in the US thanks to college radio airplay, MTV exposure, a tour with Cyndi Lauper and good reviews. Prince took an interest in the band after seeing the music video for “Hero Takes A Fall” and offered them two songs – “Manic Monday” and “Jealous Girl”.
