Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.

1) In this song, Bangles lead singer Susannah Hoffs sings that "it's 6:00 already." What time did you wake up this morning? it's laundry day, so even though I really wanted to hurkle durkle, I got up with my alarm at 7

3) She sings that it would take an airplane to get her to work on time. Are you usually early, on time, or late?  early or on time

4) Since Monday is the start of her hectic workweek, she wishes it was Sunday because that's her "fun day." What's your favorite day of the week? I don't think I have one anymore

5) "Manic Monday" was written by Prince. What's your favorite Prince song? today I'll say "Let's Go Crazy"

6) In 1985, when this song was a hit, Sears promoted sleepwear with characters on them in their children's department. GI Joe pajamas were popular. When you were a kid, did you have a favorite pair of pjs? oh yes!  I still have a favorite!

7) A fashion tradition dating back to the early 1900s states that you should put your white slacks, shoes, jackets and belts away after Labor Day. Do you follow that rule? sort of

9) According to the auto insurance industry, the average American spends 52 minutes (26 each way) behind the wheel every day traveling to and from work. How do you while away the time when you're stuck in traffic? usually with a major concert performance, complete with seat dancing
