I love her entire "Crimes of Passion" album-every song. I think my old LP probably have many skips and pops from being overplayed. Haven't replaced on CD yet.


Some of her later stuff that I like includes:

Love is a Battlefield
Shadows of the Night
Invincable.

Despite my never having been a huge fan in general (she's way more of a singles artist, IMO), I always loved the 80's pop/rocker "Hit me with your Best Shot" and her breakout single "Heartbreaker" (what a rush!! Borderline metal there!).

Seems like she kinda disappeared after about 1984/85, since some of her later hits like "Love is a Battlefield" and "We Belong" are in more of a mid-level pop direction - probably even more Top 40ish than hard rock.

Loved the "Battlefield" video since I first saw it in the early 90's - splashing water on that creepy-looking guy and, I believe, yelling something like "Leave me alone!!" stands out.

PS: Hard to believe she's around 50 today - sure doesn't look it!! Is it just me, or does she actually look better than in the early 80's? :)
