Pat Benatar-You Better Run

[Sincopare]

Sometime in the winter of 82, my dad got cable tv and a vcr. Me and my 2 brothers, all ranging from 14 to 16, watched videos like this with our mouths agape. And I still do!

[dam4762]

I meant Pat. mispelled

[dam4762]

Pay is my favorite woman rocker. She is the prototype of HOT. I like her "darker edge" look and sound from the 80`s. I love the guitar work. Especialy the solos. Anyone remember his name? Did he do anything on his own?

[innamorata40]

Neil Giraldo is his name and has been married to Pat since '82.

[TheChampionInMe]

BOING!!!!!!

[zahkuz61]

Sing it girl!!

[pat77500]

Toute une époque !

[doglips1958]

Usually remakes of 60s songs suck,but Pat does a damn fine job on this Young Rascals tune!!!

[ViciousAlienKlown]

Its also rare to have the remake walk all over the original as well. Pat is the queen of rock.

[mylovewillneverend]

GREAT SONG FIVE STARS .

[ownedbyferretsinpa]

Pat was the hottest girl singer back in the 80's, we all dressed like her too, leggings and all. Girl Power!!!

[frogmd0]

oh yea Pat Girl Power!

[antoine007n369p]

yo solo lo que corazon para pertenecer a mi, mi amor.

[rowdymax1]

Neil tears up his Strat at the end...one of the best ending solos ever.

[stonedfry123]

Neil is one of the unsung guitar players of our century!Pat and Neil kick some major ass live and he should get way more recognition!I think they should be in the rock and roll hall of fame!!!!

[pjvargy]

Pat could probably kick my ass! She is one bad chick

[Monteman1966]

Hey I totally agree with morrisrichardson! He took the words right out of my mouth! I couldn't of said it any better!

[texomaqh]

awesome voice without the help of any back up vocals, awesome singer!!

[morrisrichardson]

OH MY FREAKIN' GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pat is TOTALLY BAD ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know others have said it but there is NO other way to describe it! BAD ASS IS THE ONLY PHRASE THAT EVEN FITS!!!!!!!!

Miley dear.....YOU GOT NOTHIN'

Christina.....NOTHIN'

Hell, NOBODY today even comes close!!! WHAT A FREAKIN' IN YOUR FACE ATTITUDE!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!! Today's music BLOWS!!!!!!

[JewishVegan]

Would love to see Hillary Duff redo this song. I think either her or Ashlee Simpson would do a great job with it. Both of them have the voice and the style.

[Shrpdrt]

Man I hope Your Making A Joke

[lilisoocute]

Ashlee Simpson Seriously? Check Demi Lovato... you praises this type of music and love she wears Pat t-shirt on stage!! but can we all agree on one thing!! KILL TAYLOR SWIFT FAST!!

[JewishVegan]

I do not like Taylor Swift at all.

She is the worst.

Total fake.

[TheChampionInMe]

@lilisoocute I'm with you.

[MrPHIL1204]

HELL YEAH!!! PAT WAS AND IS THE BEST!!!

[rowdymax1]

she looks like a beautiful alien chick who needs to be probed hard and often.

[hotrodspeedcompany]

Raw, Brilliant! and if you don't feel it, you don't get it!!!!!!!

[flokk]

this should be required viewing for every wanna-be pop starlet. and theyll still fall miles short.

[jstory71]

First LIVE concert I ever saw.

[jstory71]

FAVORITE FEMALE ROCK SINGER OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BAD ASS!!!!!!!!!!! And leave me alone, I can't stand you no more....LUV IT! Then the guitar solo! WOW

[slickdaddy2010]

SHES A FUCKN BAD ASS!

[Pedro4k]

God she looks so HOT and SEXY here!!! Love that sexy attitude, look at those sexy lips!

[JWhitelaw99]

2nd video ever played on MTV

[vegas787]

An awesome lady, seen her several times in the last 20 years or so.. last show in April at Whiskey Petes, Primm Nevada (California/Nevada border) she still looks hot and sings with all her heart, a true rock legend!

[musicM0VESme]

Rock 'n' Roll DIVA !!!

[SpringSessionZen]

People ask why can't we get this music today?

Because back then, women in rock said to each other

''I'm gonna out-rock you''. It was a challenge.

Today it's ''I'm going to out-sell my image over yours''.

Pat wanted to rock............and never backed down.

[seksamerika]

VERY TRUE I HAVE THIS ALBUM IN VYNIL

[whowweeemandude40]

kill ah man

[odomfel]

I'd love to hear a woman sing with this kind of attitude and power nowadays. She is sexy, raw power. Check other videos here. All just killer. Almost 30 years later she still looks good and can sing with the best.

I have yet to see a modern woman singer touch something like this.

[cominatrix]

i agree with you my friend. woman singers today have no soul, no heart. theyve got nothing to them and it shows in their music. its actually like that with most music today.isnt it sad? todays artists should take a lesson from these guys instead of just poorly remakind their masterpieces

[cnnw3929]

Oh my gosh, that voice. And that wicked rhythm that creates such an agitator undertow that BEATS the billowing pillows down the tide REGARDLESS of the struggle. Now I better duck and run before she comes after me with a Maytag WRINGER ROLLER!

[MasterOtogi]

Pat shows with conserviative clothes, an ultra attitude & a wonderfully emotional voice you can be super sexy without being trashy like so many of todays female proformers.

[bottomsup344]

It's like with violence, you see so much of it you become desensitized. If every girl is shaking her naked booty in the videos I will eventually lose interest in the naked booty. I'm a young guy and even I think Pat Benatar is super hot.

[aj37331]

Benatar just flat-out ROCKS! 'Nuff said! ;-)

[misterdiscreet1]

SPEWING PUREFUCKING ATTITUDE!!! GOTTA LOVE THIS WOMAN!!! BTW - whatever happened to this kind of rock'n'roll, anyways???

[cominatrix]

miley cyrus happened.

excuse me while i go vomit in shame.

[wolfpackredandblack]

It wasn't just Miley Cyrus. Pretty much every other female Disney starlet.

[cominatrix]

nono, i agree with you fully and then some

[northmark444]

VERY HEAVY!!!

[tracyterry]

how much does she weigh... 21 pounds?

[raregem666]

yeah baby she rocks!!!

[handmetheclip]

If every woman had legs like that, this world would be a happier place.

[acotw67]

handmetheclip:

Do you mean because you like hot, tough chicks in tight leather pants, or that you are worn out with women who whine about having plump thighs? This isn't a sarcastic question, I'm just curious.

[LisaClark45]

Okay, this is crazy! Memories are now flooding my head of all of the Pat Benatar songs I used to sing with my band during the early 80's -- because I insisted on them! I loved Pat Benatar then and still have a couple of her "greatest hits" CDs that are played occasionally. I had short dark hair -- which I still have to this day, but mine was cut like that accidentally, after my sister (a hairdresser) gave me a "visor" cut (which was the style) and I didn't like it -- so she cutoff the back!

[stratmancruthers]

I forgot what a great guitar player Neil was. Great technique and vibrato. And he got to sleep with Pat!

[vampirefirewolf]

80s music was a LOT better than the hard rock they play now, it's rap with heavy metal music! YUCK!!!!

[shadowxxx666]

damn benatar is the one 80s bombshell of mtv

[kotraquin]

I bet she was a firecracker in bed

[littlefuzzer]

I would think Neil Geraldo would only know that.If I was him,I would wear her after concert panties on my nose allday..what hottie she is

[WWeronko]

Such a fox! God needs to produce many more just like her.

[WWeronko]

Okay, falling to knees.

[TheRisingforce2000]

what a fox!!!!!!!

[dhv67]

Me too, I miss real good kick ass rock songs like this. I was about thirteen when this came out. She was so fucking hot in this video.

[acotw67]

dhv67:

Who doesn't miss songs like this and singers like Pat?

Totally hot. In this video she makes you believe that she'll kick your ass if you annoy her-and you'd LIKE IT.

[travro25]

Back when MTV was worth watching

[plyall]

Couldn't agree more !! Back when MTV actually played music !!

[dahoss65]

Perfection! Both the song and Pat Benatar!

[MrHighlander10101]

wow!flashback!

[bobbisax]

Pat will always be super sexy cute

[chucker66]

Chelsea heights hotel PLEASE!!!

[tylerguy20]

lol, she looks like my mom in the 80s!!

[rusty1325]

your mom must of been hot.lol

[dahoss65]

Your mom looks like that now? Or she looked like that in the 80's? Because a lot of girls use to dress and look like Pat Benatar in the early 80's. Some girls did the same thing in the late 80's/early 90's with Molly Ringwald.

[tylerguy20]

in the 80's lol

[LADYSAVS1]

LOL!! OMG! I had those pants in the 80s! lol She is the only female rocker (next to Heart) that I absolutely loved. She is this little tiny thing and I loved her "Don't mess with me I'll put you in your place" attitude!

[innamorata40]

rpgfire- I'll be at the oc fair for the concert too!

I'm doing a meet and greet and sitting on the side of the stage during the performance!

[househeadericmd]

what a sexy little tart she was....... i wanna bang her and i'm a gay man!!!

[shiakue666]

This was the second video played on launch day for MTV, the first being "Video killed the Radio Star". Pat had it all, killer looks and a voice that was classicly trained. She cloud stand toe to toe with the boys or girls, she just rocked.

[rpgfire]

gonna see her on the 26th this month.. oc fair

[vegas787]

Seen her and Neal 4 times... an amazing performer!

[joefreakhouse1]

one of her best songs!!!

[hollyawoods]

Pat Benatar is so hot!  Any woman who says they wouldn't want to look like that is just kidding themselves. And her voice is freakin' amazing. Love her.

[wonderwhaz797]

You can tell how they used to record music back in then. Everyone would jam out simultaneously, and maybe, maybe the guitar solos were overdubbed, and the singing too, but otherwise the live feel was captured in the studio. Nowadays, you got some guy recording in his "office room" on his logic or cubase in between looking at youtube and porn while brushing the cheeto crumbs off his lap, and it takes 10 tracks for him just to put down the rhythm guitar track. Oh Boooooy...

[jefftherealdrunk]

in the early '80s I beat out so many batches to this babe, i could have filled a bathtub

[tarheelman1969]

neals guitar not plugged in ????....sorry didnt notice with Pat fine self strutting around up there Lord she is sexy...girls nowadays should take note....aint about skin its about attitude

[palmerje9]

Notice Neals' guitar isn't plugged in?

[daibloiiiii]

I remember seeing this vid on mtv back in the fall of 1981......when mtv was *MTV*

[all4u0x]

she looks so thin here!!

[logic33157]

at 1:20... lol

[emmillyyX6]

hahahahaha i love her fave =)

[rickyon]

What's so lol about 1:20?

[kblixt]

Hot right?

[krelbar]

Geez, if they made a remake of Batman back then, they should have cast her as Catwoman...she looks like a cat.

[wizard663]

The second video shown on MTV the first day. Man those days are long gone,, now it's just a bunch of SHIT and CRAP on there now. No good music anymore on mtv.

[HumansLib]

Geez - no GOOD music? No music period. I can't recall the last time I saw music on MTV.

[ctronjock]

this was the 2nd video played on MTV way back on aug 1st 1981.

[xXparismilenaXx]

I love her hair!

[BroodingARTist]

her mouth/lips...are right up there with Steven Tyler's and Mick Jaggers...her's are'nt huge like there's but there's something about those pouty lips and tough sneer that is "absolute Benatar"...she was one of my first crushes as a kid...after Farrah Fawcett Majors..:)~

[haro82]

Haha.. yeah, she was my first crush too. I forgot how good the music actually was.

[viletantrum]

Lip sync from the 80's. The only way to shoot a vid.

[elkkunter]

I think that she also could have been a actress. She had the talent for it. Awesome

singer for sure.

[GoddessElvina]

God knows I love Pat Benetar. I hate what they have done to she & I. We've had civil war & war on all sides. You can't call it family when it won't follow succession & does unspeakable things to us all. Civil war well baby we can judge, we got competence. It was sad then its worse now. Those who are ignorant better learn; those greedy better repent before more sins are against them.

[skot66]

NO ONE can hold a candle to Pat....

[Tacomadome24]

Ann and Nancy Wilson can me thinks!

[sucraman2]

And there's Suzi Quatro ... Who still rocks out today !!! AMAZING !!!

[JERice7]

Pat Benatar rocks and ruled the 80's. Jennifer Knapp rocked and ruled the late 90's and early 2000's(Christian rock genre) and now Lacey Mosley of Flyleaf rocks and rules. The three greatest female rockers of all time.

[peachesbot5000]

at the time she was touring this album she said once she was so annoyed with the sex image and pressure of the media that you could see her frustration in this video

[ZebZachary]

in my opinion, one of the very best 'rock' female vocalists of ALL time!

quite possibly THE best !!

and ya....she sexy as hell, too!

doesn't hurt...

[uriel4377]

she looks hot there.

[TURBOxSPOOL]

she was always hot

[uriel4377]

she looks hot there.

[allovespeggy]

i love her style and i want her top..lol

[zevon1964]

Hands down! The sexiest woman of the 80's generation.

[propaganda63]

This is how it's done. Rock In Roll!

[nowakezone2]

pat you rock beautiful slap jessica yer the shit 4 ever

[fluffydolly]

benatar rocks!!!!!

[anjelfallen]

this was the second video played on MTV, after "Video Killed The Radio Star" By the buggles ! :)

[000Devin]

Actually it was the third.. the second was Rapture - Blondie

[baddog7676]

The female artists of today couldn't carry Pat's spandex in a briefcase.

She STILL kicks ass!

Sexy, tough, and talented, there's NO female artist of today that could hold a candle, to the LEGENDARY Pat Benatar!

[pathdaly]

Ha ha ha! That made me laugh! I don't see any TRUE female rockers these days, just wannabes and cricatures.

[watchlar76]

OH Crap!! I'm sorry! I meant to hit "Thumbs Up"

Pat Benetar is one of the all-time best! No doubt!

[skudstorm44]

u aint the only one

thinking about da pants..

[GeorgesMuzikVideos]

My favorite Female Rocker of all time and one of my favorite guitarist, Snake!

[dahoss65]

The eighties had Pat Benatar, Joan Jett & Stevie Nicks and today we have Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson & Kelly Clarkson. That is like night & day.

[fruitariangirl]

i never realized how svelte she was until now. she looked much better with a little more weight on her. but theres no doubt pat always oozed sex appeal!!!! yum!!

[InnkeeperX]

holy shit, those leather pants... omg

[truthero]

she was certainly a hot little number, wasn't she? in my opinion, her music was never again as good as 'twas on this album. it became increasingly keyboard/synth driven, as was the fashion.

[Leggman6900]

Love this vid.

[TrishtheDishNY]

i remember the girls in high school walking around dressed just like her. gotta love it...

[dahoss65]

Yeah I remember that too. The first time I saw a girl dressed and looking like her, I was like hell the is Pat Benatar doing here!

I was like I gotta hook up with that. Turns out it wasnt her. :(

[tera033]

OutStanding

[billyidol55]

you better run!!!!!! you Hide!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Leather pants is hot!!!! man it's too bad girls and guys don't have there hair out anymore, today girls and guys look way too depressing and guys like to look like girls today, that's the problem!!! style has lost it's touch

[dahoss65]

I'm a holdout from the eighties!

[sirlonghair]

that whole band rocked

[Abovegroundminer]

kICK ASS ! A two legged fox !

[mimidec67]

always loved Pat,now THAT is a rock-n roll voice! Her husband was hot too,lol

[missdarknbright1]

Really....who was the husband?

[wendyjensenca]

She definitely was a bad ass of 80s rock, one of the biggest voices of the decade. Love her still.

[silverballs4]

I had a Girlfriend who looked like pat, Back in the day,broke up with her because i wanted another girl with the Bigger Boobs!!! Now i wished i still had her!!!

[Ionizap]

I hoped you learned boobs aren't everything. Some of my best girlfriends were small breasted. Actually the small ones tend to look better after 10 yrs of marriage.

[amcjherdt]

I think they are hotter myself. Ha Ha Ah

[silverballs4]

I had a girlfriend (Back in the day) who look like pat, But Noooo!! I wanted someone with Bigger Boobs!!! Wish i still had her!!! :-(

[A7XRULES1027]

shes hot

[ichigokurosaki66666]

This is REAL music. I said it lots of times and ill say a million times more: I wish i could have lived the 80s

[pakodonto]

shes so fucking ugly

LOL

[amcjherdt]

Too Bad for YOU,, I Think She Is WAY HOTT !!!

[me110494]

no female artists like her anymore...now they all suck(example of sucking: britney speares)

[hamslice151]

LOL

[LaeshaStevia]

I have been hearing this all my life and i have one thing to say.... this is awesome!

[tabbygail7]

Eat your heart out Carrie Underwood! (Talentless hack.!) Nobody could touch Pat. She was the best female rock vocalist maybe ever.

[amcjherdt]

Carrie is a studio girl,, She is good for about three songs live,, Then she goes into FROG mode. If Pat $ Carrie did a Crossroads show I think we would see who the Idol really is...

ha ha ah.

[teddibearsworld]

My Lord.. hot.. screaming sex. I'd forgotten how hot she was..and still is.

[italobambino43]

I agree, she and others who came out of this era are credited with some memorable vocal performances, Joan Jett, Heart, Blondie and Pati Smyth just to name a few. I do not know if some of you know that Pat Benetar studdied to be an opera singer? Listen to the track entitled: "Wuthering heights" from the second album. Many newcomers to the industry can give Pat Benetar the credit for the path they blazed.

[amcjherdt]

Wuthering heights I always liked that one,, It is Nice !!!

[sloppyjakekisses]

Pat Benatar is the best ever!!!!!!!!!

[tabbygail7]

All women should look and sound like this.

[Revgirl5]

great

[zolf1988]

This is the 2nd video aired by MTV in his debut day (1981)

[PeaceNdLovee]

She is BAD ASSSSSS

[XxRobertPattzxX]

HELL YA!

[beth4663]

i love it!

[flairboys]

rock'n the spandex like no other!

[Andreiadisney]

CoOOOOOOOOOOL.

[toolchick71]

I wore my pat benatar records out. LOVE HER!

[giedriuslithuania]

i wish i've lived in the 80's and be rich rich rich to get down with her....she looks so fine-i LOVE 80's :P

[sloppyjakekisses]

hippen

[ephraim0000]

How old is she now. Just wondering if i'd still hit on her.

[ytownteddy]

She was always bad as hell, chick or not.

[xxsolidsnake937xx]

Wow, I wish Pat Benetar was still singing today, she was amazing. But now we have........ Hannah Montana Ughh XD

[DarkCountDooku]

You better run!

You better hide!

You better leave!

Man... the way Pat says it...

[Monteman1966]

I love all Pat Benatar songs but this has to be my favorite! I just love it ! Thanks for sharing it!

[robi2000]

The drummer was awesome in live concert. I think he stood the whole time.

[ruddskii]

Boring and Gay? The closest she comes to being like Gary Numan is she's got more balls than you.

[Aerosmithjoe]

check out that look at 1:01 !

[rtselby]

Captivating!

[kjtoomb]

Pat's the best, awesome Voice, Glad I grew up in the Late 70's Early 80's, some of the best Music to come out.
