What? No.
James was released in 1984 and is one of my favorite Bangles songs. However, if you listen to the lyrics, you’ll discover James is not that great of a guy. A YouTube comment summed it up nicely.
James needs to get his shit together.

If you force me to choose a new name, James would definitely fall off the list. Hurry up and get your shit together, James. Maybe then, I’ll reconsider.

I knew it'd turn out like this
I'm keeping one foot on the train
And I must be a masochist
To ever take up with you, James.
It sounds familiar
That tone in your voice
You're gonna quit, James
You leave me no choice.
Oh, James
Letting me down again, James.
Well, it wasn't so long ago
I saw love in your eyes
And I think I should've known
But I'm feelin' somewhat surprised.
You think there's someone
Better for you
You think I'm too young
To see this thing through.
Oh, James
Letting me down again, James.
(Ooh, let me down) down, down
(Ooh, let me down) let me down, down, down, down
(Ooh, let me down) down, down
(Ooh, let me down) let me down, down, down, down
(Ooh, let me down) down.
I knew it'd turn out like this
I'm keeping one foot out the door
And I don't think I should trust
That kind of love anymore.
And now I realize
I had it all wrong
I'll only take this
Trip for so long.
Woe, James
Letting me down again, James
Guess this is goodbye again, James
Letting me down again
Letting me down again, James.

Good song! I was more of a Go Gos devotee, but the Bangles were cool. 😎

I loved the Go Gos, too. Beauty and the Beat was such a great album. I think it’s probably their best.
