The Bangles' transformation from Merseybeat and garage-smart guitar band to near-definitive example of buffed-and-polished corporate popsters is one of the great rock mysteries of the '80s. What was up with that video for "Walk Like an Egyptian," anyway? Greatest Hits puts it all in perspective, tracing the curve from the post-Beatles group sneer of "Hero Takes a Fall" to the deadly earnest Susanna Hoffs showcase of "Eternal Flame." Shortly after that ballad hit No. 1, the group split. Now unfairly remembered as little more than space fillers on turn-of-the-decade airwaves, the Bangles here make a good case for their spirit, their own songwriting gifts, and, of course, those voices.

Be With You
Eternal Flame
Everything I Wanted
Following
Going Down To Liverpool
Hazy Shade Of Winter
Hero Takes A Fall
I'll Set You Free
If She Knew What She Wants
In Your Room
Manic Monday
Walking Down Your Street
Walk Like An Egyptian
Where Were You When I Needed You
