If she knew what she wants - The Bangles

This limited edition double single features not one, but two hit singles. Although 'hit' singles may be overstating things a bit. 'Hero takes a fall' was originally released in 1984 and only managed a number 96 placing in the UK singles chart. 'If she knew what she wants' was a bit more successful, reaching number 31 in the UK and Australia, but also number 30 in Austria, number 29 in the USA, number 20 in Switzerland and number 17 in Germany!

'If she knew what she wants' was the second single taken from the Bangles' 1986 album 'Different light', the album that would later bring forth the biggest hit of the group's career: 'Walk like an Egyptian'.
