I picked Other. But which other I'm not too sure of. It is a toss up between Love is a Battlefield, Invincible, I'm gonna Follow You, Out-of-Touch, Wuthering Heights, and Hell is for Children.  (What can I say, I like Pat Benatar)

"Love Is A Battlefield"  :)

I agree, Love is a Battlefield,
followed closely by Shadows of the Night,
but I liked pretty much all of them.

Catwoman,
I never heard Pat Benatar' "Wuthering Heights."  I remember a Kate Bush song of that name, are you thinking of that one?

I'm not trying to answer for Cat, but I remember Pat Benatar's Wuthering Heights.  It wasn't released as a single, but it was on one of her earlier albums,  it's an excellent song.


It's hard for me to pick a favorite, I love all her music, but I would pick Heartbreaker as my favorite, followed by Promises in the Dark.

Love is a Battlefield (only the extended version)

No one mentioned Little Too Late.
She's breaking up with her boyfriend because "It's a little too little...
It's a little too late!"

Song:  Promises In The Dark.
Video:  Shadows Of the Night, even if IMO a bit cheesy.

As an aside, I heard a year or two ago an acoustic version of "Love is a Battlefield", done with just her singing and someone, I want to say her husband maybe (is she married?) on guitar.  Done fairly recently, was a reunion concert if not a comeback attempt, saw this as a DirecTV PPV.  Very well done, liked it better to be honest then the original released version.

The guitarist is Pat's husband, Neil Giraldo. He's been in her band since the beginning, and they've been married since the early 80s.

You probably saw the 2001 DVD show. Did they start off with "Treat Me Right"? If so, that's the one you saw. The show wasn't a reunion or comeback show, as Pat hasn't taken a break from music since she started! She still releases albums and videos, but huge mainstream success for them is likely in the past. You'll catch her and Neil  occasionally making cameos in some TV shows and showing up to sing her songs with other artists (Sheryl Crow and Lisa Marie Presley among them).

I LOVE "I'm Gonna Follow You". Great song-but not one of her more popular ones.

"Love Is A Battlefield" is such a great song, but not as good as the fantastic "All Fired Up" from 1988.
