"A Change in the Weather"
It’s just another manic Monday. (BTW, I just found out that the song was written not by Bangle but by Prince.) And this is just another Muggle Meta – not difficult, not elegant, but mildly diverting. Pay no attention to those postings on the WSJ board these past couple of weeks that reference a similar theme.
The answer is an eight-word saying.
UPDATE: An alert solver (is there any other kind) has found a small error. The clue at 46D should be "The ________ the father." (The second "the" is missing in the clue as published.)

Off the couch!
I enjoyed it a lot, and learned something new in the process.

Off the couch.
Thanks for the wonderful puzzle!
Re Prince, among his many other gifts to other performers, the one I never knew until recently was "I Feel for You" - smash hit for Chaka Khan.

I do tend to overcomplicate the simpler ones. Guilty again. But off the couch now.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.
