Page "The Bangles" Paragraph 10

1988's Everything was produced by Davitt Sigerson as the band had a negative reaction to working with David Kahne on Different Light.

The album was another multi-platinum smash and included their biggest-selling single, the soft ballad " Eternal Flame ".

Co-writer Billy Steinberg came up with the title after Susanna Hoffs told him about the band's visit to Graceland, Elvis Presley's estate in Memphis, Tennessee.

An " Eternal Flame " in memoriam to Presley is maintained on the site, but on the day the band visited, the flame had gone out and its clear-plastic enclosure was flooded.

When they asked what was in the box, they were told, " That's the eternal flame.

" The single became another worldwide hit.

Hoffs was actually naked when she recorded the song, after being convinced by Sigerson that Olivia Newton-John got her amazing performances by recording everything while naked.
