I was acquainted with an actress back in the late 80's through some college friends.
To me, Susanna carried the song every step of the way.
For those that are young or live under a rock, Susanna Hoffs was the singer from the 80's all girl pop group The Bangles.
Whether that worked or not, there is no doubt the song paid off for The Bangles, giving them their first big hit No 2 in both the United States.
