  • Esta simplemente es mi canción favorita, toda la ternura, toda la devoción y toda la depresión que conlleva el simple hecho de amar sin ser amado o comprendido en el amor, se concentran en esta canción, y, si a eso le agregas la voz de Pat Benatar..... todo es perfecto

  • good song

  • Soooo sexy, smoking that cigarette and belting out those incredible notes !

  • MYRON GROMBACHER GREAT DRUMMER FOR PAT BENETAR AWESOME DRUMMER FOR THE GREAT SINGER PAT BENETAR!:):) AMAZING COMBO:)

  • what was the deal with everyone smoking in this video! ugh

  • @dreamteam6362 When this video was shot back in the day people smoked in the clubs; especially blues clubs. I was laughing because on the Choice Cuts DVD (with all of Pat's videos) on the commentary she got onto Neil who was smoking in the Little Too Late video (what a bad example); then when this video came on he was saying "look you have a cigarette"; she was like oh I forgot about that. (She never smoked though...and he quit smoking in the 90's).

  • Pat Benatar has truly wonderful eyes

  • here, here, well said, Tunenito....

  • Easily the most awesome song by Pat. I practically fell in love with her when this came out "back in the day".

  • what a voice!!! mag

    nificent singer!!

  • I dont know why this song didnt become more popular. Its awesome.

  • Very nice song...love it...

  • Oppps  my bad it was 82

  • saw her concert back in 79...big fan of the Big Voice. right here baby.

  • three people r idiots go pat she is awsome australia loves pat

  • This is actually the second version of this video. The original featured actor-comedian Richard Belzer as her opening act!!

  • Pat does indeed smoke! I have all the outtakes and she did about 12 versions of the song before the finished product was assembled. Sometimes she takes as many as three drags (some quite large) during the song and always at least once. But the killer is the very end when you see her seated and watching Belzer. She takes five consecutive drags during that sequence and releases at least one killer exhale while smiling. It is as gorgeous as she is. The director says she smokes and it was their idea

  • The thing about using cigarettes in videos and movies is that you can tell the editing order by the length of the cigarette. Sometimes it's short and then a few minutes later, the cigarette is longer ....just a thught.

  • niggitynignig....sorry to disappoint you but at 2:15, she smokes

  • i ove the fact that she never smokes the cigarettem, this song is killer

  • @niggitynignig Took a drag @ 4:29!

  • this is one of the best songs ...

  • Why isn't anyone allowed to "badmouth" Madonna - to me that's what she's here for! So please do, cos no one else will! May I remind anyone and everyone she isn't God, no matter what she likes to think.

  • 1 Dislike ?!?!?!?! who is the Rat Communist worthless Dog Turd who dilsiked this vid ???

  • Pat Benitar at her absolute ass kicking best. When this video came out I used to sit and watch MTV just waiting to see it again.

  • Pat had such a great look for video. Not classically beautiful but DAMN she was attractive. Plus a great voice. And as always Neil on guitar. One of my favorite '80s guitarists!

  • This song and the singer take me back to the 80's! Pat Benatar is so classy and attractive also having a great stage presence!!

  • The fact that Pat Benatar and Rush are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame just goes to show you what a massive cluster fuck organization they really are.

  • @vaportrails44 Brother I AGREE 100%....I LOVE RUSH, BEEN TO 12 CONCERTS but missed Pat Benatar twice due to sickness! I love them both and the rock hall of fame is FUCKING STUPID for not having these legends!!!!

  • AWESOME!One of the best female vocalists ever!A career that began in the late 70's.She has a remarkable,unique voice.Pat you are a legend...

  • 2:55 = FLICK !!!!

  • Richard Belzer @ 2:43

  • LOVE IT!!!!

  • Le bel age = good times

  • The drummer looks like the guy from saw

  • She did not actually smoke the cigarette, they made her use it as a prop. She talks about it in her new book. She hated cigarettes! 

  • @greyhoundgrl Nahhh...that wasn't a drag she took off that cigarette @ 2:15 then, was it?...LOL. Somehow they made it look like she was exhaling, albeit a small amount.

  • I love when Pat smokes.

  • The first time I heard this song, it blew me away! I emailed to a dj and it had the same effect on him as well. I was saddened that it didn't get the recognition that it deserved. For me, it was Pat's best song!!!!

  • you know the Pat has a four octave operarange right?

  • hard to believe this is over twenty years old and i listen to pat benetar regular ,as if she was still in the charts today,awesome !

  • aawwww gosh... so many memories on the album "7 the hard way".

    This is absolutely one of my favorite tracks. Gives me goose bumbs all over.

  • WOW, this is so unique great sound from the band and allways Pat voice is the best.

  • WOW, this is so unique great sound from the band and allways Pat voice is the best.

  • WOW!! Great act and awesome song.

  • Hands down the best song she has ever done PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!

  • my favourite Benatar song, hands down.

  • Comment removed

  • Hands down the best song she has ever done period!!!!

  • It always make my heart shudder as it is so well done. As you all agree that most of the music today is crap!

  • Unbelievable talent, her best song IMO. It's unreal to me that she has not been inducted into the Rock n'roll hall of fame ...yet. You can't get much more iconic than pat!

  • i love Pat!!!!

  • The queen of rock no body can sing like her. Barbie better do her doll!

  • You can convert this or any youtube videeo to an mp3 at audiogetnow..com

  • man is she hawt

  • dicovered this pb song few years back on one of her greatest cd release. this song is kicks ass!!!

  • My favorite and most underplayed and underappreciated Pat Benatar song. Beautiful!!!

  • There was a time when I would've said, "Pat Benatar with with a cigarette! Aw, dude, bogus!"(I hated smoking and smokers). Now that I smoke, I'll watch this over and over again. It's beautiful. The '80's was IT--and we'll top THAT out, someday soon. ;]

  • I  love this one

  • Not the queen, but the PARAGON of music.

  • Sheer perfection!

  • I love Munch from SVU..but this video is way better without him talking all through it. I love this song..Pat is an ICON.

  • this my very favorite song by pat. i love how she sings it like a disinterested blues singer. I read an interview with her and the reason they decided on B&W and her loose clothes is she was 4 months pregnant with her daughter.

    Also the man who wrote it Robert Tepper is a singer also.

    The crap they have out now is a disgrace, the 80s was an awesome time for music like the 70s.

    Then the 90s rolled around and it was taken over by corporate slags who wouldnt know good music from a dirty sanchez.

  • @robwheelut thanks for the super commentary .... :-)

  • @robwheelut  As mankind's heart grows colder, so does his music

  • @robwheelut

    Plus....the appearance by Belzer is great too!

  • @robwheelut

    Always liked her. I like all her songs, at least the 10 or so I've heard. Wasn't Richard Belzer in this video, at the beginning maybe? Too bad it's cut out. I liked that part too.

    I don't think she should have admitted to being 4 months pregnant in this clip since she's smoking and in a room full of smokers.

  • @Larrytennisfan

    Oh, I see. There's another version of this with Belzer all throughout it. That's the one I remembered from when I used to watch a lot of music videos back in the 80's

  • @robwheelut First time I ever heard this. Looks like it's taken from a 40s retro film? Thanks for the great info. I am pretty much on the same page with your chronological review of music. Love 80s. the 90s--the soul dropped out of the universe and the music reflected that.

  • @robwheelut Robert Tepper wrote this? Never knew that. He attempted a solo career of his own but it never happened. He had one song I know of called "No Easy Way Out". LeBelAge is a great song. Love Neil Geraldo.

  • @robwheelut What you said. A million trillion times, what you said.

  • wow my new #1 pb song ...thanks for sharing...&2crm good stuff

  • @flybug67 thanks for watching . . . .

    :-)

  • i love her acting in this video... so impressive! she doesen´t need proper camera tricks and jazzy outfits...

    this is so great!!!!

  • P.S. Not to badmouth Madonna or others, but Pat's talent is superlative. In this vid she sings the song of an idealist without a hint of passion or irony. She might as well be slopping the hogs for all the joy she demonstrates. Kudos to the director and the singer for pulling this off. My favorite video of hers for the total package (I like others better for this or that, but overall none compare).

  • Thanks for the fine commentary ... Pat is truly awesome.

    :-)

  • @HnFLabs I wholeheartedly agree. As an avid PB fan, this is my favorite of her songs and I adore this video.

  • Brittany, Madonna, Christina Aguilera and a host of singers who can only WISH they had a voice and talent like this. Pat Benatar just flips off MUSIC as easily as some people smile. WOW! If she can't dance like the other girls, that is SO pointless. It's all about the voice and presence like Pat's. Put her up there with Sade, Chrissie Hynde, and Shirley Manson for her voice, and the way she goes from Rock to Blues to Jazz . . . unequaled. Look at her total ennui in this video. Brava!

  • Always enjoyed hearing Pat Benatar's powerful singing. She has a beautiful voice.

  • sexy pat

  • I'm Listening To This Album Right Now, For The First Time.

    GOTTA LOVE "Sex As A Weapon!!!!!!"

  • I love this song, always gotta love Patty B. I ALWAYS THOUGHT THIS SONG WOULD BE PERFECT AS A VAMPIRE THEME SONG on a soundtrack. LOL

  • This song I have not heard in a long long long time.

  • This might not have been her biggest selling song but by far the best

  • Pat must've dragged on the cig when the camera wasn't on her. How else do ya explain smoke comin' from her lips?

  • Golden gray c'est clair!!!

    Isn't clear!

    Foolish society she was right then!

  • My wife bought me this album when we first got together 25 years ago - wow great memories. Thanks for posting!

  • Terrific ... thanks for sharing! :-)

  • fuckn legend this song

  • Uh Guys...She never ever take a puff. She put it between her lips for a split second near the end, but never inhales.

  • i was puzzled for years why this song didn't get more airplay until I saw the video for the first time only recently ... duh, because she's smoking in it! Another victim of bad timing with the anti-smoking police

  • Nothing sexier than a beautiful woman smoking a cigarette! Pat Benatar's greatest video by far!

  • She looks super hot draggin on that ciggy doesn't she!

  • Wasn't Richard Belzer in this video before the music actually starts? I remember him in a Benetar video. I thought it was this one.

  • there is an alternate version of this video with Belzer throughout

  • It is this one but a different version. This one had the dialogue cut out...

  • Such a strong voice! Have loved her for decades and this is my FAVORITE song. Excellent job, Pat!

  • She's truly great!!

  • Since getting hooked on Pat recently, I think she is wonderful. And her husband (what a true love story!) is one of the most under rated axe men of all time imo. His playing is sublime and has an almost orchestral style at times. Imagine his work scored for a string section!

  • I couldn't agree more. Neil Geraldo is a true gem of a musician.

  • I hate you tube so much these days with the ads and the censoring of content ... to hell with all this copyright crap, I think everybody should boycott this site now and quit supporting censorship. Ever since Google got involved it hasn't been the same. Google monopolizes information & I sincerely hope that in the coming decade it falls on its face and people recognize what a monopoly they hold / held before they woke up and decided to quit being controlled.

  • YEAH RIGHT ON!!! I want my money back! Those fuckers!!! ;)

  • This is by far pats best song, Robert Tepper wrote beautiful words.

    She has an angels voice and is so beautiful, I read in an interview she was 5 months pregnant with her first child.

    Thats why shes wearing the loose sweater.

    She simple glows.

  • Great song, it reminds me of Rick Nowels work with Belinda Carlise. But Pat created this sound first. Should have been huge. I never understand why Pat was not bigger in the UK. Oh yes....bloody Chrysalis!

  • Pat rules forever!!! Thanks for posting this classic!

  • Many thanks ... yes, Pat rulessssssss!

  • they just dont produce music like this anymore, she is one of a kind, my fave pat song.

  • I agree on many levels. When people with talent were the ones that got produced. Synthesizers were used to enhance their voices, instead of cover up the talentless and ungifted. This particular one is one of Pats best. Thanks for sharing Mikey

    hugz

  • I love pat she looks so gorgeous and sexy in this video just flicking her ashes off shes the hottest women with an angelic voice u rock pat..thanks for posting this beautiful talented artist shows ppl still have a sense of taste now a days!!

  • a woman that smokes is sexy, no matter what politicians and doctors say...

  • The irony is that Pat doesn't smoke and did not smoke when this was shot. . I think she puts her cig up to her mouth ONCE in the whole video. It's a prop. Everyone ELSE is smoking.

  • Such a great song and such a great voice! Always thought this was on of her best. She IS the whole package!

  • super , j'adore forever

  • I've never understood why this song isn't as popular as some of her other stuff.

  • Gee, you think this video glamorizes smoking or something?

    Pat looks very sexy with a cigarette.

  • Smoking is very seductive! I love watching her nonchalantly flick her ashes to the floor at 1:20 ... such "coolness"!

  • great tune, great vid; thank u for posting!!!!

  • thank god for people who can really appreciate talent

  • Does she really smoke? Cause, if she does, her voice was really clear for a smoker.

  • no, she doesnt. not even in this video

  • cancel the clown

  • Never forget this song. A young kid i was going into 8th grade when i first heard it....love it!!

  • Love this song! Love Pat Benatar! Totally a class act!

  • her band rocks! neil is an amazing guitarist. His use of delay on this song is not outdated even by today's standards. And Myron is perhaps one of the most charismatic drummers like Keith Moon.

  • THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS CLIP!!!!!!! I was craving for this particular clip & y'all made my day!!!

  • Thanks a  million! Enjoy ...

    :-)

  • This one's probably one of the few really classic rock songs of the mid-1980s.

    Even though its sound is unmistakably 'mid-80s' in character, somehow it doesn't sound terribly dated.

  • I know what you mean - - the guitar licks in this song are pure 80's, but the song itself is timeless. :-)

  • This whole album was great.

  • ... maybe one of the best albums of the Eighties.

  • Totally underated song. One of her best.

  • This song is a journey

  • So true, I agree.

  • @Cujoshunt92Again journey was pretty good to, seperate ways and faithfully rocked

  • @00tonytone Seperate Ways kicked ass!

  • Looked for this one on a whim ... my favorite Benatar song! Thanks for posting it!

  • Excellent ... thanks for watching!

  • no smoking animals ;)

  • gotcha ...

  • This song is like an ANTHEM to me!

  • Awesome!

    :-)

  • My all time favorite Pat Benatar song, with "All Fire Up" coming up right behind it.

  • Two of my favorites also, though with Pat, she had so many AWESOME songs, I love them all . . . .

    :-)
