The world needs more women like Chrissie Hynde.

[Michael Casey]

The Pretenders are the best yes, but not POP! Chrissie would not like to be considered a Pop artist.

[david stanley]

two words: OHIO WOMEN

The Pretenders did some nice radio friendly songs, but they aren't as talented, influential or artistically innovative as the Kinks were. It's not even close. Ray Davies songwriting skills are out of this world. If not for a ban from America in the 60's and piss poor management, the Kinks would've been just as popular as the Beatles. Now they're popular, they just have so much work that's never received that much attention. Village Green, Face To Face, Muswell Hillbillies, Sleepwalker, etc.

The Pretenders what a band! I knew there was something "special" about Chrissie and the group back in 1980. I always wondered why more folks did not appreciate this band and the great music they created. Sure hope there is still more Pretenders' music to come........

[Dragan B]

Smart, crazy, stylish, talented, experienced, classy, beautiful... write more about Chrissie :-)

[Alan Green]

THE KINKS ALSO DID THIS DURING THE 1960'S

[Robert Osborne]

Sandie Shaw was a major influence on Chrissie - so easy to hear here.

[battywattywoo]

The best Pretenders song, along with 2 Birds of Paradise.

[chloe delores]
