Walk Like a Egyptian

WALK LIKE A EGYPTIAN
 
 
"Walk Like an Egyptian"  is a song made famous by American band the Bangles.  It was released in September 1986 as the third single from the album Different Light.  It was a million-selling single and became Billboard's number-one song of 1987.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

The second album by the Bangles, Different Light spawned two major hit singles, "Manic Monday" (written by Prince under a pseudonym) and the #1 song "Walk Like a Egyptian".  Several other hits followed, including a tough version of Paul Simon's "Hazy Shade of Winter" and another #1 song in 1989, "Eternal Flame".
