Big Star: September Gurls, and The Bangles: September Gurls

First up is the recorded version by Big Star from their album Radio City



Next is the reunited lineup with Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow augmenting Jody Stephens (drums) and the late Alex Chilton (standing at far right singing lead vocals): 



and finally, the first version I ever heard of this song was by The Bangles from their album Different Light



That's Michael Steele, the bass player, singing lead vocals. In the recorded version, they changed the lyrics slightly, but here they are like the Big Star version. 

This is from a concert at the House of Blues in Los Angeles in 2000.
