This song reminds me in Frankfurt Germany calling home at the airportand my little brother answered as i was taking of to America .Married an american sodier and saw fit i needet to embrace his world.My little baby brother cried on the phone his heart out and it made the journey so much harder .Today i see even so the journey of a true democracy of all people are eyual in His sight is worth the fight.Love is a battlefield worth fighting for.
DON'T READ THIS CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS. YOU WILL BE KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMMOROW WILL THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE.HOWEVER IF YOU DO NOT POST THIS COMMENT TO AT LEAST 3 VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS.NOW US STARTED READING THIS DO DONT STOP THIS IS SO SCARY PUT THIS ON AT LEAST 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS THIS IS SO SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS
@hecticdmc Naa...the video has always been pretty cheesy, which is too bad since the song is excellent. Unfortunately Micheal Jackson started a trend where suddenly EVERYBODY wanted to have massive choreography in their videos even when the songs didn't need them like this one.
But you gotta admit her dancing is as bad as some people's!
I haven't heard this song in years. I am glad I am 15 and I can say that. Shows that I didn't find out about 80's song like a year ago. I was born and raised with it. 80's music is truly the best and there will never be anything like the 80's.
does this remind any of you of that movie where the main charactors name is baby doll. she is sold into a psych unit by he crazy uncle, i think this may have been the basis for the whole movie theme.
i still have a cassette player in my car and this song is still a good singalong on them long drives. love the song, first time seeing the video, its different but the song is still pretty stellar man.
@DjFang54 I still have all my original Pat Benatar tapes and they are still in great condition!! I saw her for the 3rd time this past August 7, 2011 just outside Santa Rosa, CA...I've been a fan of her since I was 10 years old and will continue to be a fan of hers until the end!! She can serenade me anytime, anywhere!!
@SeducingEyes No kiddin? thats gnarley man, I didn't know she was still touring. Truth is I've been out of America for awhile, but finally getting back. I agree with you on the serration as long as it doesn't become a battlefield. Santa Rosa huh?.. Ihave to put that in my notes of to be traveled list. Cheers to ya
@DjFang54 I'm not a guy, I'm a womon DjFang54!! But yes, she is still touring and I did a book report on her this past semester at the college I go to currently (her book came out June 2010) and surprisingly I got an "A" on my report!! She is my favorite reigning queen of all time; my womon (musically speaking) Pat Benatar!!
@SeducingEyes That was just a test, what was the course on which you received the grade for? I consider her personally as someone who has been misunderstood in some opinions. I assume you were not expecting the grade? Why not? Cheers to you and Benatar.
GET A GRIP IF YOU HAD WATCHED THE VOICE LAST NIGHT, YOU WOULD KNOW WHY THEY ARE MENTIONED. iF YOU HAD READ ANY OF THE OTHER COMMENTS, YOU WOULD KNOW WHY PEOPLE LOOKED FOR THIS VIDEO. DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT ICONIC MEANS?!!!!!!!!!!!
SO GLAD TO HAVE BEEN BORN IN THE SIXTIES. I WAS 21 WHEN THIS SONG CAME OUT AND IN AN ABUSIVE MARRIAGE. HEARING THIS SONG HELP ME TO REALIZE THAT i WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO WALK AWAY. I MADE IT ON MY OWN AFTER THAT. THOSE WHERE THE DAYS SONGS REALLY MEANT SOMETHING. THANKS CEE-LO AND VICCI, YOU ROCKED IT!!!
Five minutes before this video: Honey, stop. . . stop singing at the dinner table. . . . just. . . just eat your peas and stop -- ! Where are you going? You get back to this table right n-- and stop singing, blast it all! Oh, you're packing your things, that's wonderful. It's bad enough that you've turned into a music video, now you're leaving? Where will you go? It better not be to some biker-gang bar, and I don't want to hear about you becoming a slut ten years from now. You leave this house..
BTW Pat said it made as much sense of her dancing as it did Mr. Ed. Of course never did another vid dancing, lol. She hated to be associated with that "shoulder shimmy".
Pat Benatar here is 5'0 tall and 90 lbs. She's small but all legs and stacked. She looks great as is without fake big boobs, a spray tan, and hair extensions. Back in the day didn't matter how cheesy the vids were; we just watched to see our fave performers sing. All about the music. You could be an ugly Mo Fo didn't matter as long as the music was good. Love ya Pat after all these years!!! I met her and she is the most down to earth nicest person you could ever meet.
@dummas212121 don't you realize that almost everything by mainstream male artists is about getting drunk and/or having sex? my point: if you're going to hate Kesha, hate her because she isn't a good singer--not for being a girl who sings about sex and alcohol.
lol at the people complaining about modern music. old people like you back in the 70s and 80s were saying the samething about the modern music back then. only difference is they didnt have youtube or imdb to bitch and moan on XD
@xLavenderBlossomx :Too True! I am one of The "Old People" , and someday you will be too! But this music, AND that of our parents and Grandparents are part of our WONDERFUL, RICH Heritage! As Today's music will be! Can't we all just get along" LOL
@PeanutButterCraze well thats good that YOU are smarter then the rest, but im 18, and all the girls in my highschool, and that are around my age, are pathetic, and the majority of them got really bad values when it comes to guys, due to shitty role models like kesha, lol my best friend told me kesha was her hero, then started cheating on her boyfriend with other guys who had girlfriends, when she was NEVER like that before, and thats one small example, bad role model, bad values, bad choices
Just say the 2011 concert. For a woman who is 58 she can still belt it out with the best of them
We are strong...no one can tell us we are wrong....both of us knowing, love is a battlefield. If you haven't caught the 2011 concerts...you are missing her again. Beautiful....memories forever.
Pat has a great voice. But her songs were never cool. I'd still much rather listen to Ke$ha.
Ke$ha can sing. She chooses to do dance music, and so she uses autotune, like every other pop singer. She is one cool genius artist. She is not a slut or a whore. Like Ke$ha has to solicit on the street corner. She can buy and sell you jealous haters. You're too old for your age. Those that live in the past, get passed by. Buh-bye.
@thewaymouth I can't speak for others, but I can assure you that Kesha can't purchase me, so the fact that I believe her to be significantly lacking, if not totally worthless, has nothing to do with envy or jealously.
i love the 70s and 80s but some singers now have talent too...Look up Lady Gaga live singing You and I. and Hayley williams from Paramore has excellent talent as well..Lady Gaga writes all of ther music.. its just a shame that all the songs that don't have much meaning become popular
Usually when I listen to popular or famous songs I can appreciate what people enjoy about them. But this song...I don't get it. It just sounds absolutely horrible.
The 80's and the generation we are in right now are by far the absolute worst times in history for pop music. 70s, 90s, 60s, were all at least decent.
This song proves that pop music has always sucked and it will always suck. If you want to hear real good music you have to branch out...cause the radio isn't going to play it
i agree with drwidlehands cuz like back then they had style and actually good songs.even if they had dumb costumes on or they had funny faces they sang good.
i agree with drwidlehands cuz like back then they had style and actually good songs.even ifthey had dumd costumes on or they had funny faces they sang good.
@Stev02112 LOL, this 1 is pretty DRAMATIC, but i think Michael Jackson's Bad video,where he dances with another guy who he is in a hand locked knife fight with, is the only video with a more out of this world drama dance sequence.
If you werent alive for the early 70's to mid 80's then you havent lived. I remember them so well what a great time. Movies like Scarface Ferris Buelers day off Ghostbusters, Friday the 13th, Jason. Good thing she didnt go opera or we wouldnt have these great songs. 80's RULE leather pants and long hair Fukin A. Well done Pat 30 years and people still love this song. Perfect relationship or breakup song. THANKS FOR ALL THE MEMORIES
she wrote it to expose the lives of runaways as forced sex slaves...the shimmy dance was the choreographers way of interpreting it into a video when..yes ..even in the 80s there was still alot of sensorship in tv...think about when mtv even started...and also alot of early videos were on a shoe string budget so more then likely havin a couple run throughs of the dance were all she actually got before filming...not like she was michael jackson and had alot of money to start a solo career out of
@Vampkiki - WTF?? First, the song wasn't written to expose the lives of runaways as forced sex slaves. Second, Benatar didn't write the song, Mike Chapman and Holly Knight did. Third, Benatar rehearsed for two full days before fiming. WTF do you get your information??
@innamorata40 my information was from a video interview about the writing of that song that i watched on here...means if you look it up its still there somewhere....and she stated it was written for that purpose...she was not weathly and famous as of yet and that she had little time to rehearse.
@Vampkiki - Actually, the song was written as a slow balled (Per Mike Chapman, writer, with Holly Knight) and the video was directed thru Bob Giraldo) No reference to Neil. The music/lyrics have nothing to do with one another, Read Benatar's autobiography "Between a Heart and a Rock Place" Your information is OLD and I'm referring to Benatar's autobiography from 2010. Hopefully, this will help you out?
@Vampkiki Hey vampi did you not hear PAT BENATAR DID NOT WRITE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!! OMG ARE YOU FREAKIN BRAINDEAD??? SO SHUT UP AND JUST ACCEPT THAT YOU GOT CAUGHT TRYING TO BE A KNOW IT ALL,WHEN THE FACT IS YOU DONT HAVE A CLUE ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!! AND YOU MADE YOURSELF LOOK DUMB TO THE WHOLE VIRTUAL WORLD!!!!!!! YOU ARE A CLASSIC MORON!!!
@berdooiesc by you i might be considered braindead but then again i don't run with that group that makes harrassing statements behind a faceless virtual profile just to make myself feel better. innamorata did correct me but based on the video i had seen that lead me to this one my information was correct.Neither i nor innamorata were attempting to be know it alls, i was simply trying to be helpful as was that person unlike you who posted several malicious comments to multiple people today.
@Vampkiki seriously, there is something wrong with the way your brain functions!! You OBVIOUSLY have a problem with RECOGNIZING & ACCEPTING FACTS? OK i will keep it simple and specific- #1-this is a comment section for an internet site,so EVERY profile is virtual & faceless!and posting a response to someone's comment and questioning if they have a brain & telling them 2 shut up is not harassment.Not even in kindergarten. #2-Who said anything about INNAMORATA?WTF?my COMMENT was for you ONLY!!
@Vampkiki the word innamorata is not in my comment 1 time! Dont try & make stuff up,this isn't make believe! Innamorata knew EVERY fact and felt the need to question your way of thinking the same way i did! Did you not READ the messages from Innamorata or are you making up your own facts AGAIN?? #3- Do you really think that giving someone information that you KNOW is not true, is TRYING TO HELP?and you never saw pat say that in some interview!why would she say something that is totally false??
@berdooiesc where do you get making stuff up and yes innamorta was trying to help thus why they typed "Hopefully, this will help you out?" so apparently your the one not reading and not knowing your facts. and no it wasnt the same way, calling someone and idiot and moron based on one typed conversation you happended to read only part of is ignorance. and you happen to bring them into it when you typed your original statement and no my actual picture is on here so people know who i am
@berdooiesc and i didnt state that telling someone to shut up was harrassment i meant the kindergarten name calling was. and by definition verbal harrassment or verbal abuse Verbal abuse (also called reviling or verbal attack) is a form of abusive behavior involving the use of language. It is a form of profanity that can occur with or without the use of expletives. While oral communication is its most common form, verbal abuse may be expressed in the form of written word as well.
@Vampkiki as for where i saw my information..i spent a whole two seconds looking up the video here and came up with the first two that pop up one in her words that said teenage runaways and the darker side of the city and one that was not her that also concurred with the teenage runaway prostitue theme..pat benatar 'the making of" love is a battlefield by geniglee and Videos on trial- pat benatar- love is a battlefield.m4v by bitch salad.so there is my proof that she did say that and i repeated
It was a time when the technology level of progress of people-planet (humanity) was commensurate with human needs without excessive commercialism and material values, and the global world was sufficiently great to feel the music that has a "soul" and feel things, and more importantly spread the new population of young people ... And even in my country SERBIA life was satisfactory ... I go back in the 80s. please ..:-( who has the time machine ;-)
Pop music always has and always will suck. This lady is no different then Brittany Spears. Beside, the show South Park does a way better version of this song anyway. Look it up.

Benatar has always been my favorite, but why is it always, Love is a Battlefield or We Belong? She has so many kick ass Rock and Roll songs besides these two pop songs!
i am 14 and i have loved pat benatar since i was like 6 and i know all the words to most of her songs . yes i like rap and all the new stuff but this stuff is sooo much better . I LOVE HER <3
Well this song is a classic and lasted almost 30 years. let's see how long Lady Gaga will last.. 3 years? MAYBE, just maybe... we know that nobody cares about Britney Spears music.. so its just a matter of time before Lady Crappy is in the where are they now files...
@gold95 ; You can't compare Shitney to Gaga. Shitney never got the recognition from people like Elton John, Madonna, KISS, or any other legendary people like Gaga does.
If Ozzy frigging Osbourne says Gaga can be a legend than she has to be doing something right.
&& Pat Benetar is a rockstar, you can't compare her to a newby popstar and a crappy washed up one.
@gold95 First of all, Lady Gaga has already lasted three years, and just put out another hit single, get your facts straight. Second of all, Lady Gaga's voice is beautiful, you should hear her acoustic stuff before you judge her solely on her appearance and lifestyle. Its a different age of music, and you cannot blame a younger viewing audience on not listening to Pat Benatar, she doesn't come on the radio. For one I love Pat, but think before you judge someone only on their outer appearance.
@gold95 I think this applies to all mainstream music. But to be fair, Lady Gaga can actually sing and is talented. She's just wasting it all on pleasing the masses with bland crap. Don't get me wrong, I hate her music, I just wish she put it to good usage.

@Mikozee I agree with you 10000%. She can sing and she can perform. The problem is as you described, her inability to make good music. Also, she copies to much of other pioneers, like Grace Jones, Madonna,Bowie, Elton John etc. Wish she would copy some of their good music. But I don't agree that all mainstream music is crap. E.g. John Mayer is good and several of his songs will last another 40 years... Even Kelly Clarkson's Since youve been will last a long time. So will some of Katy Perry

Ke$ha can sing. She chooses to do dance music, and so she uses autotune, like every other pop singer. She is one cool genius artist. She is not a slut or a whore. Like Ke$ha has to solicit on the street corner. She can buy and sell you jealous haters. You're too old for your age. Those that live in the past, get passed by. Buh-bye.

@thewaymouth I can't speak for others, but I can assure you that Kesha can't purchase me, so the fact that I believe her to be significantly lacking, if not totally worthless, has nothing to do with envy or jealously.

i love the 70s and 80s but some singers now have talent too...Look up Lady Gaga live singing You and I. and Hayley williams from Paramore has excellent talent as well..Lady Gaga writes all of ther music.. its just a shame that all the songs that don't have much meaning become popular

The 80's and the generation we are in right now are by far the absolute worst times in history for pop music. 70s, 90s, 60s, were all at least decent.

This song proves that pop music has always sucked and it will always suck. If you want to hear real good music you have to branch out...cause the radio isn't going to play it

If you werent alive for the early 70's to mid 80's then you havent lived. I remember them so well what a great time. Movies like Scarface Ferris Buelers day off Ghostbusters, Friday the 13th, Jason. Good thing she didnt go opera or we wouldnt have these great songs. 80's RULE leather pants and long hair Fukin A. Well done Pat 30 years and people still love this song. Perfect relationship or breakup song. THANKS FOR ALL THE MEMORIES

she wrote it to expose the lives of runaways as forced sex slaves...the shimmy dance was the choreographers way of interpreting it into a video when..yes ..even in the 80s there was still alot of sensorship in tv...think about when mtv even started...and also alot of early videos were on a shoe string budget so more then likely havin a couple run throughs of the dance were all she actually got before filming...not like she was michael jackson and had alot of money to start a solo career out of
Vampkiki 1 year ago
@Vampkiki - WTF?? First, the song wasn't written to expose the lives of runaways as forced sex slaves. Second, Benatar didn't write the song, Mike Chapman and Holly Knight did. Third, Benatar rehearsed for two full days before fiming. WTF do you get your information??
innamorata40 1 year ago
@innamorata40 my information was from a video interview about the writing of that song that i watched on here...means if you look it up its still there somewhere....and she stated it was written for that purpose...she was not weathly and famous as of yet and that she had little time to rehearse.
Vampkiki 1 year ago
@Vampkiki - Actually, the song was written as a slow balled (Per Mike Chapman, writer, with Holly Knight) and the video was directed thru Bob Giraldo) No reference to Neil. The music/lyrics have nothing to do with one another, Read Benatar's autobiography "Between a Heart and a Rock Place" Your information is OLD and I'm referring to Benatar's autobiography from 2010. Hopefully, this will help you out?

@berdooiesc by you i might be considered braindead but then again i don't run with that group that makes harrassing statements behind a faceless virtual profile just to make myself feel better. innamorata did correct me but based on the video i had seen that lead me to this one my information was correct.Neither i nor innamorata were attempting to be know it alls, i was simply trying to be helpful as was that person unlike you who posted several malicious comments to multiple people today.

@Vampkiki seriously, there is something wrong with the way your brain functions!! You OBVIOUSLY have a problem with RECOGNIZING & ACCEPTING FACTS? OK i will keep it simple and specific- #1-this is a comment section for an internet site,so EVERY profile is virtual & faceless!and posting a response to someone's comment and questioning if they have a brain & telling them 2 shut up is not harassment.Not even in kindergarten. #2-Who said anything about INNAMORATA?WTF?my COMMENT was for you ONLY!!
berdooiesc 11 months ago
@Vampkiki the word innamorata is not in my comment 1 time! Dont try & make stuff up,this isn't make believe! Innamorata knew EVERY fact and felt the need to question your way of thinking the same way i did! Did you not READ the messages from Innamorata or are you making up your own facts AGAIN?? #3- Do you really think that giving someone information that you KNOW is not true, is TRYING TO HELP?and you never saw pat say that in some interview!why would she say something that is totally false??
berdooiesc 11 months ago
@berdooiesc where do you get making stuff up and yes innamorta was trying to help thus why they typed "Hopefully, this will help you out?" so apparently your the one not reading and not knowing your facts. and no it wasnt the same way, calling someone and idiot and moron based on one typed conversation you happended to read only part of is ignorance. and you happen to bring them into it when you typed your original statement and no my actual picture is on here so people know who i am
Vampkiki 11 months ago
@berdooiesc and i didnt state that telling someone to shut up was harrassment i meant the kindergarten name calling was. and by definition verbal harrassment or verbal abuse Verbal abuse (also called reviling or verbal attack) is a form of abusive behavior involving the use of language. It is a form of profanity that can occur with or without the use of expletives. While oral communication is its most common form, verbal abuse may be expressed in the form of written word as well.

@Vampkiki as for where i saw my information..i spent a whole two seconds looking up the video here and came up with the first two that pop up one in her words that said teenage runaways and the darker side of the city and one that was not her that also concurred with the teenage runaway prostitue theme..pat benatar 'the making of" love is a battlefield by geniglee and Videos on trial- pat benatar- love is a battlefield.m4v by bitch salad.so there is my proof that she did say that and i repeated

It was a time when the technology level of progress of people-planet (humanity) was commensurate with human needs without excessive commercialism and material values, and the global world was sufficiently great to feel the music that has a "soul" and feel things, and more importantly spread the new population of young people ... And even in my country SERBIA life was satisfactory ... I go back in the 80s. please ..:-( who has the time machine ;-)

@gold95 ; You can't compare Shitney to Gaga. Shitney never got the recognition from people like Elton John, Madonna, KISS, or any other legendary people like Gaga does.
If Ozzy frigging Osbourne says Gaga can be a legend than she has to be doing something right.
&& Pat Benetar is a rockstar, you can't compare her to a newby popstar and a crappy washed up one.

@gold95 First of all, Lady Gaga has already lasted three years, and just put out another hit single, get your facts straight. Second of all, Lady Gaga's voice is beautiful, you should hear her acoustic stuff before you judge her solely on her appearance and lifestyle. Its a different age of music, and you cannot blame a younger viewing audience on not listening to Pat Benatar, she doesn't come on the radio. For one I love Pat, but think before you judge someone only on their outer appearance.

@gold95 I think this applies to all mainstream music. But to be fair, Lady Gaga can actually sing and is talented. She's just wasting it all on pleasing the masses with bland crap. Don't get me wrong, I hate her music, I just wish she put it to good usage.

@Mikozee I agree with you 10000%. She can sing and she can perform. The problem is as you described, her inability to make good music. Also, she copies to much of other pioneers, like Grace Jones, Madonna,Bowie, Elton John etc. Wish she would copy some of their good music. But I don't agree that all mainstream music is crap. E.g. John Mayer is good and several of his songs will last another 40 years... Even Kelly Clarkson's Since youve been will last a long time. So will some of Katy Perry
