(I considered The Bangles but decided against them because they weren’t as “pure” an example, because (1) they don’t have **a** lead singer (on “Walk Like an Egyptian,” three of them each take a verse), and (2) unlike other examples on the list, it’s not _just_ the lead singer who’s female. I’m not saying they don’t belong on the list, just explaining why they weren’t my choice.) ---
