Lyrically this is one of her best: [Fire and Ice video]
I may have gone a little far with that one! I was in a "look under the surface" mood.

Pat Benatar does have quite a few decent, popular songs that certainly do pack a lot of emotion in them. "We Belong" is my favorite, and I'd heard "Fire and Ice" before, but two other songs by her that I enjoy whenever I hear them on the radio are "Heartbreaker" and "Hit Me With Your Best Shot." They don't break any revolutionary musical ground and do sound very "commerical" with standard format and sound, but they're good songs!

Pat Benatar - "Heartbreaker"
One of my favorite songs that she sings, and a great performance video I'd recommend if you haven't seen it yet.

Do you like Love Is A Battlefield Vegan? I found out this was her highest charting single while looking for the video. I always liked the accent of the backup vocals on this particular song. I actually thought that Hit Me With Your Best Shot would be ranked as her #1 charting single.

I prefer "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" because it is more upbeat.

I never saw the video for "Love Is A Battlefield" before. I had always assumed the song was about troubled romantic love rather than the love between parents and children, so seeing that interpretation was a pleasant surprise!

Lovesong hasn't returned so maybe I'll take her place!

Here's a cute love song I've always felt was very catchy ever since I first heard it . . . a while ago.

The Ronettes - "Be My Baby"
I really like the percussion's castanets and shakers. They make the song's background sound pleasantly fizzy, like tickly bubbles in soda pop.
