It was written by American musician Prince, using the pseudonym "Christopher".  Originally intended for the group Apollonia 6 in 1984, he offered the song to The Bangles two years later.  Lyrically, it describes a woman who is waking up to go to work on Monday, wishing it were still Sunday where she could relax.

Different Light: Different Light is the second studio album by American pop rock band the Bangles, released in January 1986.  The album's Top 40 sound was a departure from their earlier 1960s-style rock'n'roll sound.  It is their best-known album, with five charting singles, including the "Billboard" top two hits "Manic Monday" and "Walk Like an Egyptian".  It is also the first album in which bassist Michael Steele sings lead vocals on some tracks.

Doll Revolution: Doll Revolution is the fourth studio album by American pop rock band the Bangles.  It was released in March 2003 in Europe and Japan, and in September of that year in the USA.  It is the group's first album of original material since 1988's "Everything".

Bangles (EP): Bangles is the eponymous first EP by The Bangles.  It was released in 1982 by Faulty Products and reissued in 1983 by I.R.S. Records when Faulty Products went out of business.  The songs remained widely unavailable thereafter, with only occasional rereleases of individual songs.  The whole five-song EP was eventually reissued as part of the Bangles' 2014 compilation, "Ladies and Gentlemen... The Bangles! ".

Everything (The Bangles album): Everything is the third studio album by American pop rock band the Bangles.  It was released on October 18, 1988 through Columbia Records.

All Over the Place (The Bangles album): All Over the Place is the debut studio album by American pop rock band the Bangles.  Released in 1984 through Columbia Records, the sound is lively and shows more Bangles collaboration and fewer keyboard overdubs than were used later on their more commercially successful albums.  Although the album was not a major commercial success — peaking at #153 on the Billboard 200 albums chart — and didn’t produce a hit, it sold respectably, mostly through steady airplay on college stations.  It also gave them the chance to perform as an opening act for Cyndi Lauper and Huey Lewis and the News and brought the group to the attention of Prince, who would write "Manic Monday", their first hit.

The Bangles: The Bangles are an American pop rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1981.  They scored several hit singles as that decade continued.  The band's hits include "Walk Like an Egyptian", "Billboard" magazine's number-one single of 1987, as well as two number-two hits, "Manic Monday" and "Hazy Shade of Winter", and their 1989 number-one single "Eternal Flame".

Still Standing (EP): Still Standing is the first EP by American pop punk band Yellowcard.  It was released in 2000 by Takeover Records.  This EP was the debut for lead vocalist, Ryan Key, who replaced Ben Dobson.  It featured Todd Clary on rhythm guitar, Ben Harper on lead guitar, Sean Mackin on violin, Warren Cooke on bass, and Longineu W. Parsons III on drums.  This is the last release by Yellowcard to feature Todd Clary.  The EP marks a transition between the hardcore punk style featured on the band's previous two albums, and the softer, pop punk sound on their later releases.  The songs "Rock Star Land" and "Drifting" were re-recorded for the album "One for the Kids".
