"Manic Monday" (1986) was the first hit single from the American all-female band, The Bangles. It was written by Prince in 1984 and recorded as a duet for the Apollonia 6 album, but the song was eventually pulled. Two years later, as he was attempting to "court" lead singer Susanna Hoffs, Prince (under pseudonym Christopher) offered the song to The Bangles, who recorded their version. The song reached #2 in both the UK and US record charts, coincidentally behind Prince's own song "Kiss", which reached #1 in the US.

The lyrics tell of someone waking from a romantic dream at 6 o'clock on Monday morning, and facing a hectic journey to work when she would prefer to still be enjoying relaxing on Sunday—her "I-don't-have-to-run day". Actor Rudolph Valentino is referred to in some of the lyrics in the song.

The verse melody strongly resembles the verse melody of Prince's hit "1999", and The Bangles' rendition features their familiar female harmonies and jangly guitars and has been described as less funky, but rockier and more accessible than Prince's live version.
