She was huge in the 80s. Used to meet girls by letting them sing Pat Benetar in my band. I think the song Sex as a Weapon killed her career. She still has lots of fans, but nothing approaching the commercial success of We Belong.
1981 - 82 was all about Pat Benatar back in the day, and we drank and made merry. It was one of the soundtracks to my younger days living in Honolulu. Great memories!
Ms. Benetar knows how to rock! This is back when MTV still played rock videos and music didn't suck. Since the early 90's rock music has been a joke. If it ain't real rock its crap!
but thumbs up to this song just a few weeks ago i could listen to this with out a god dam commercial yt and vevo can eat me cuz i will deleeeeet my acct zippcast is next no dam commercials march 7 th i am outa here
Everytime I hear another song, I say "This One Is The Best"! I can never decide when it comes to Pat Benatar, She is the only artist I have over 50 of her songs on my Ipod she takes up the most space besides Def Leppard. LOL
Pat Benatar broke down a lot of walls and paved the way for female R&R singers. she could sing rock,love songs,and blues. Some people didn't like the way her direction of music went.But she and Neil told the record label "tough shit " and did it their way. I respected her for her guts.If it wasn't for her,Madonna and all the artists to Lady Ga Ga wouldn't be shit. None of them had a 3 octave range. She is touring with REO Speedwagon now and still looks and sounds HOT !
@buddawiggi What a terrible thing to say! I'll stop there because one of my New Years Resolutions is not to verbally slaughter stupid people on YT via comments.
This was when music was just that, not it is all done by computers, except for a select few nobody can perform like this anymore..and those that do are the 80's rockers still filling the concerts..
Neil is still hot too! They have two gorgeous daughters! FB Littlest Hans to see her youngest; looks like her mama; Haley has her eyes too. Lovely family. Neil and Pat are still together how amazing and beautiful!
2011 and I’m still hitting replay on this song! I LOVE PAT BENETAR! DAMN she can sing her booty off! Her strength, beauty, and kick ass attitude has been such a huge inspiration to me being a female singer! She has paved the way for female rock singer! I am in a pop/punk band called HEY YOU. If any of you PB fans would like to give it a try, we just put up a new video, and would love it if you would let us know what you think.... = )
I have seen her live many times, and she is the only singer I have seen that hits it note for note every time, every song. Pat is as great live as she is on her records.
i saw her in a concert yrs ago i was in front of the stage im a dude and i was screaming like a bitch for her lmao she is so freking hot!!!!!!! and she can sing her ass off. thank you for the upload
All I can say is how is madonna who would have no venue were it not for Pat and others that paved the way for female singers gets in .. yet the Rock N Roll Hall of fame disses Pat every year .. it kills me
Benatar and Ann Wilson are the two greatest female rock vocalist of all time. Take note ladies. Learn to sing like these two greats. And stop shoving your fake tits and lip synching in our faces! Rock on Pat!
@innamorata40 I agree.But you do no this was filmed on a soundstage.This is the studio recording of this song.Can any1 remember the last time you heard this great song on the radio??? Point being....radio sux,really bad,but i bet you could turn on your radio rite now and hear "Black Dog" for the hundred millionth time.
@DARRINCONNOR1 Yes...very aware of this being on a soundstage. This was video taped in the San Fernando Valley (So, Cal). Back in '81. Never the less, she has one hell of a voice. I do hear this on Classic rock......KLOS 95.5 (Los Angeles)
@xxsolidsnake937xx Yeah I no its a great song,just way overplayed.I guess i should look at it subjectively, that maybe sum 10 year old kid is hearing this song for the 1st time in his life.Or Aerosmiths "Dream On" OMG I cant listen to songs like that anymore.Especially a aband like Aerosmith where they have 100s of awesome songs you will probably never hear on the radio. "Sick As A dog" "Nobodys Fault" I live in Detroit and you will never ever hear these songs being played.
YES, THANK YOU!!! God I hate watching a pat benetar video, and having a pop up come up under the video for rhianna. The quality of music nowdays pisses me off so much. Just last night at the New years eve show, the music acts were justin bieber, lady gaga, cee lo green, drake, and pit bull. I mean what the hell is that crap.
@RecklessBloodyWays - I didn't forget them......that's why they were not included. Jett and Harry are good in their own rights. But do not have the range, pitch, tone and power and Pat and Ann.
@innamorata40 Amen!! My same sentiments were posted under a heart video awhile back. Todays no talent fakes owe it all to Benetar and Ann & Nancy Wlison. Pure energy.... ... and awesome voices!!!!
No, she does not have (or will ever have) the qualities of Pat but she is amazing. By far, Pat is the greatest female singer of our lives. Others can come in and they will always have their strengths and weaknesses. Nobody will ever be like Pat!!!
I have Takes 1-4 of the rehearsal video (testing out camera's etc) on my channel. Come to my channel (Pat Benatar Channel) I have all the rehearsal vids in a Playlist; also check out her singing this on Arsenio Hall 1993; and have the complete US Festival set. I have over 90 uploads; lots of rare footage. If you're a Pat fan check out my channel!~
Here's a thought for the people at VEVO: Those of us that come here to listen to Pat, don't give a rats-petunia for what Selena Gomez or Justin Beiber are doing, releasing or allegedly singing. So stop advertising them here. Just a suggestion.
Wow!!! What an amazing..... powerful voice voice..... can never grow tired of this excellent video. Easily one of the most talented female singers in our time... along with Ann Wilson Of Heart. Never mind the fact that she was and still is quite the looker in that tiny frame! What a body!! Neil is a lucky man as well as great lead guitar player!!!
@Tbone500011 _Yes, you are a moran.....Read the lyrics to "Hell is for Children" The song is about child abuse and the pain and suffering children endur everyday at the hands of evil people. The title can be mis leading, however, it means. It is hell for children because of the pain and hell they go thru. Open yours eyes and shut your mouth.
@Tbone500011 Pat Benatar and bassist Roger Capps both wrote Hell Is For Children after reading a newspaper article on Child Abuse in America titled "Hell Is For Children".
@Tbone500011 Take your meds dude. Pat only toured during the summer when her kids were school age and they went with her. During school she and her husband of 31 years both raised their children. She never did drugs, partied, and is very well grounded; to this day. She is a very nice in person; sweet as can be.
@ivegottaheadache Completely spot on. Clearly her voice has changed over... THIRTY daym years on tour. But she still tours. Still sounds great (just cant hit the super hi notes on Hell is for Children) and LOVES her fans. I saw her 2x last summer. LOVED it.
I usually hate lip-sync, but Pat and Neal nailed this one. I immediately recognized it as lip-sync, but it's sooooooooooo well done, that I forget it really isn't live.
@lancetop Go to my channel and I have her1982 US Festival complete set in 8 parts, (due to time restrictions); you'll see the part of her singing this song. Look through my uploads and watch the 1993 Arsenio Hall upload where she sings this song and at the end goes way way high on the note; unlike the studio version!
not fake??? then why the fuck are they lip syncing??? everything in the 80's was as FAKE as anything today. The American Media has just gotten better at being FAKE thats all. i do love Pat, but this video is fake singing and playing. just like my own videos, im faking it over a RECORDING. FAKE. lol
I will always say that there are three great voices of power and range among the women of rock and roll. Ann Wilson of Heart, Annie Lennox of Eurythmics and Pat Benetar. I had the privilege of seeing her on her second album tour and she was GREAT! I have little doubt that there are no women out there in rock today to match these three ladies. Pat is an all time great and deserves induction in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! No Question!
I had the privilege of seeing (and more importantly, hearing) Pat perform in the early or mid-80s, in the exact outfit she's wearing in this vid, and even though she didn't engage with the audience much, it was still an incredible performance because of her voice and Neil's guitar playing. She's one of the true great rock chicks of all time.
@ENEMENCIO123VISION I really don't care whether it's live or not. It's a vid, and vids can be live or produced. Either way, Pat and Neil are still incredible.
I don't like Pat's videos. Her music does not need visuals. Maybe that is why many of my favourite songs by her never had a video I saw. This is one of my favourite songs by Pat (Rated X, All Fired Up, Hell is For Children as well). She had a look, but her videos took something away from her music. I think she is just one of us that don't feel comfortable in front of a camera.
@Basileus84 ETA, other than Love is a Battlefield, Lipstick Lies and We Belong, Pat was never really a "video star" and even in those videos, she just didn't seem comfortable. For me, just putting on her album, cranking it up, and just listening is nirvana
@Basileus84 I agree that she doesn't have the greatest stage presence in the world (I've seen her live 3 times ... I think she's maybe kind of shy? ... not sure), but damn, she can belt out the songs, right? I especially like Promises in the Dark and Hell is for Children. And Neil is incredible to watch on the guitar!
THIS LADY IS ONE OF THE FIRST OF HER KIND, A ROCK N ROLL ORIGINAL QUEEN.THERES NO ONE LIKE HER AND NEVER WILL BE.KEEP ON A ROCKIN PAT LOVE YA FOREVER.
dream to have listeners of all ages love the thing I do...I sing from the heart and stay true
I know all of us have dreams and i know my dream can come true with ur help by going on my channel thats all it takes
In the future, I wish to create videos of me singing originals songs. I just hope to have followers when I post them.
And If Everyone Could Just "Thumbs Up" This Comment So Everyone Sees.its just a simple press of a button that could make my dream come true thank you all
2011 and I’m still hitting replay on this song! I LOVE PAT BENETAR! DAMN she can sing her booty off! Her strength, beauty, and kick ass attitude has been such a huge inspiration to me being a female singer! She has paved the way for female rock singer! I am in a pop/punk band called HEY YOU. If any of you PB fans would like to give it a try, we just put up a new video, and would love it if you would let us know what you think.... = )
When Madonna took the wheel, things started going down hill. Now we have freaks like Lady Gaga who are barely human. Pat Benatar and Heart set the standard for chicks who know how to rock.
@lilbaca I know Ann and Nancy Wilson rocked with the Canadian Gals in the late 70's when they had a record deal in Canada, they also recorded alot of their music. So they are not to be forgotten, Holly Woods (lead singer for Toronto) an American gal, Sharon Alton from Toronto wrote What about Love. Lisa Dabello - they record Black on Black, Darby Mills lead singer of Headpins, Allanah Myles and Sass Jordan. Those girls rocked !!
I am the number 1 Pat fan. I saw her from 1979 and followed her. She is my GODDESS!!!!!! NOBODY is better. I like Modonna but not for her voice. She is amazing in recreating herself. I hated GAGA for a long time but after watching her interview on Stern I realized she is fragile and humble. Since then I watched and studied her.
They don't make music like this anymore. Pat and Neil were the best and set the bar real high! I can't wait to see Pat Benatar in concert this weekend at the Mountain Winery...
LOL! While this song was sung Pat & Neil were battling it out. This is from the Precious Time Tour and in her book she said her band/crew called it Hell Is For Us Tour; Pat said it was the first time she trashed a hotel room, always throwing shit, both of them fighting,he broke up w/her during that tour...WHAT FUN!! Now married for 31 years: TRUE LOVE!
All Pat Benatar fans my channel is devoted to Pat Benatar; so check it out and sub. Have this song live from the US Festival 1982 (full set); also from Arsenio Hall Show 1993 where the end of the song she changes and goes up about 4 or 5 ranges; only time I've seen her do that!
She looks like she could be a lawyer or some other professional. Nice hair. Perfect age for a woman. Not a kid anymore but youthful skin, not a line or wrinkle in her face.
A fan since my youth and will die a huuuuuge fan. The voice, the style, the sheer talent.....and to have a woman rocker with the power and range - I still lose my voice rocking around the house even trying to get near her ranges! lol I am simply a forever fan ♥
everybody here knows that pat has a 5 octave voice!!!! that is awesome! not too many out there!!!and her husband gil aka spyder is the best lead guitar in the biz back then!put it this way most underrated guitatist. in my book the best!!!!!!!!!!
Pat Benatar is one of the greatest Female rockers of the early 1980's!!! She knew what issues were around at that time & she belted them out in that beautiful raspy voice of hers & I will love her forever!!!
Rock Music ICON! Her vocal passion is inspirational and moving. She is a Legend. The world of music is wealthy for her participation. Spyder is also an incredible guitar player. His solos are rippers and blues soaked.
neil was playing in the rick derringer band at I think 15 years old . he knew he had the chops. Then this hot , awesome, amazing singing godess comes. and they are awesome!
they used to play this all the time on mtv. now all they show is teen mom/jersey shore vomit. At least i got to enjoy mtv when it had things worth watching.
@totallyasimpsonjunki PAT BENATAR WAS THE FIRST FEMALE TO HAVE A VIDEO ON MTV.. SHE ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WOULD LUV TO SEE HER INCONCERT STILL.. IM STILL AN 80'S BABY. STILL LISTEN TO 80'S GO TO ROCK CONCERTS............
@totallyasimpsonjunki MTV, in Portugal, is reality-show free. The viewers must demand a full-music policy out of music networks if they want to stop watching reality tv from being exhibitited in music channels. Complaining on a youtube channel doesn't make any change. If you are serious about your passion for music, take action for it!
@Brunnhilde1000 i know complaining doesn't change anything, i was just hoping that someone younger than me would at least be aware that mtv was a great "music" channel at one time, and them playing songs like this had alot to do with it. As for mtv-portugal's full-music policy, i would love to see that here in the states, but i won't be expecting it here any time soon.
ha, thumbs up if you're watching this in 2024 one last time before you get in the time machine to go save John Connor! (kidding)

@ivegottaheadache Completely spot on. Clearly her voice has changed over... THIRTY daym years on tour. But she still tours. Still sounds great (just cant hit the super hi notes on Hell is for Children) and LOVES her fans. I saw her 2x last summer. LOVED it.

I usually hate lip-sync, but Pat and Neal nailed this one. I immediately recognized it as lip-sync, but it's sooooooooooo well done, that I forget it really isn't live.
Pat and Neal are totally 100% underrated rockers.

@lancetop Go to my channel and I have her1982 US Festival complete set in 8 parts, (due to time restrictions); you'll see the part of her singing this song. Look through my uploads and watch the 1993 Arsenio Hall upload where she sings this song and at the end goes way way high on the note; unlike the studio version!

not fake??? then why the fuck are they lip syncing??? everything in the 80's was as FAKE as anything today. The American Media has just gotten better at being FAKE thats all. i do love Pat, but this video is fake singing and playing. just like my own videos, im faking it over a RECORDING. FAKE. lol

I will always say that there are three great voices of power and range among the women of rock and roll. Ann Wilson of Heart, Annie Lennox of Eurythmics and Pat Benetar. I had the privilege of seeing her on her second album tour and she was GREAT! I have little doubt that there are no women out there in rock today to match these three ladies. Pat is an all time great and deserves induction in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! No Question!

I had the privilege of seeing (and more importantly, hearing) Pat perform in the early or mid-80s, in the exact outfit she's wearing in this vid, and even though she didn't engage with the audience much, it was still an incredible performance because of her voice and Neil's guitar playing. She's one of the true great rock chicks of all time.

I don't like Pat's videos. Her music does not need visuals. Maybe that is why many of my favourite songs by her never had a video I saw. This is one of my favourite songs by Pat (Rated X, All Fired Up, Hell is For Children as well). She had a look, but her videos took something away from her music. I think she is just one of us that don't feel comfortable in front of a camera.
Basileus84 5 months ago
@Basileus84 ETA, other than Love is a Battlefield, Lipstick Lies and We Belong, Pat was never really a "video star" and even in those videos, she just didn't seem comfortable. For me, just putting on her album, cranking it up, and just listening is nirvana
Basileus84 5 months ago
@Basileus84 I agree that she doesn't have the greatest stage presence in the world (I've seen her live 3 times ... I think she's maybe kind of shy? ... not sure), but damn, she can belt out the songs, right? I especially like Promises in the Dark and Hell is for Children. And Neil is incredible to watch on the guitar!

@lilbaca I know Ann and Nancy Wilson rocked with the Canadian Gals in the late 70's when they had a record deal in Canada, they also recorded alot of their music. So they are not to be forgotten, Holly Woods (lead singer for Toronto) an American gal, Sharon Alton from Toronto wrote What about Love. Lisa Dabello - they record Black on Black, Darby Mills lead singer of Headpins, Allanah Myles and Sass Jordan. Those girls rocked !!

I am the number 1 Pat fan. I saw her from 1979 and followed her. She is my GODDESS!!!!!! NOBODY is better. I like Modonna but not for her voice. She is amazing in recreating herself. I hated GAGA for a long time but after watching her interview on Stern I realized she is fragile and humble. Since then I watched and studied her.

@totallyasimpsonjunki MTV, in Portugal, is reality-show free. The viewers must demand a full-music policy out of music networks if they want to stop watching reality tv from being exhibitited in music channels. Complaining on a youtube channel doesn't make any change. If you are serious about your passion for music, take action for it!
Brunnhilde1000 4 months ago
@Brunnhilde1000 i know complaining doesn't change anything, i was just hoping that someone younger than me would at least be aware that mtv was a great "music" channel at one time, and them playing songs like this had alot to do with it. As for mtv-portugal's full-music policy, i would love to see that here in the states, but i won't be expecting it here any time soon.
