December 20, 1986 –
The Bangles‘ hit Walk Like An Egyptian went to the No. 1 spot on the Billboard charts on this date.
This was the biggest hit for the Bangles, but they considered it one of their least favorite songs, as their rock pedigree was compromised by a goofy song they had nothing to do with composing. The difficult recording process caused a lot of tension within the band. These tensions would eventually break them up.
