The Hoffs’ song her bandmates ‘rejected’

As a founding member of The Bangles, Hoffs was the brain behind some of their biggest songs until their last album in 2011; however, one of her works, “Eternal Flame,” got rejected at first. “The band rejected that song, and I was bereft over it, I was mortified,” she admitted. “I was really excited about it, but then we had this band meeting about our third album, Everything, and it was rejected.”

The 1988 release, “Eternal Flame,” meant so much to Hoffs regardless that she “had taken the cassette everywhere with me, asking people if I could show them the new song I’d just written.” Thankfully, the producer eventually decided to include the track on Everything. “And I’m like, ‘Yes! Please, please.’” Hoffs recalled. It went on to chart in several countries like the US, the UK, Australia, Ireland, Sweden and the Netherlands.
