Occasionally — and by that I mean whenever I can’t decide whether to karaoke "We Belong" or "Love is a Battlefield" — I wonder which Read the full post.

It’s totally “Love Is A Battlefield.”
overruled. Invincible rawks. close second: Sex as a weapon
For me it’s either “Hell Is For Children” or “Shadows of the Night”.
Nice that there’s so much great stuff to choose from! But I wouldn’t put “Love Is A Battlefield” even in the top 10!

If you want something to make you tear up and then hate yourself later, go with “We Belong.” If you want some dancing that’s so cheesy it’s awesome, go with “Love is a Battlefield.” If you want impressive high note-hitting, it’s “Heartbreaker.” Me? I’ll take the tears of shame every time…
Run Between the Raindrops. Love Love Love her! Happy Birthday
My “Pat B Top 10 Countdown”:
10-”Hell Is For Children” – As noted, makes “Luka” seem like a ditty.
9-”Love Is A Battlefield” – Mandi made the case already.
8-”We Belong” – Has indeed held up well due to Lite FM (see other Popwatch blog!)
7-”I Need A Lover” – Great cover of the Mellencamp tune…took the original and made it better!
6-”Little Too Late” – Catchy, “go-to-hell-loser!” song.
5-”We Live For Love” – Shows Pat’s operatic skills well.
4-”Heartbreaker” – The song that put her on the map. Still an 80′s classic!
3-”Hit Me With Your Best Shot” – Shows Britney’s “Hit Me One More Time” as the bubblegum song it was. BS couldn’t touch the master!
2-”Promises In The Dark” – Still love the last refrain, with it’s almost subliminal “one-two-three-four” between “…innn the” and “daaark”. With today’s overproduced albums, you’ll never hear anything like that again.
1-”Shadows Of The Night’ – Great video, great song, extremely well performed. What’s not to like?
Heartbreaker – Hands down! I love We Belong – but Heartbreaker just plain rocks. I put Love is a Battlefield way down on my Benatar list.
I’m going to have to go with Invincible on this one.
Oh my god, Love Is a Battlefield, hands down. I love the romanticism of We Belong, but Love Is a Battlefield is the song that sticks in your craw, especially with that fabulous video to back it up!
Mandi, it is SO “We Belong.” Although I admit the dancing and headgear for “Love Is a Battlefield” are quite compelling. Easiest to karaoke though? “Hit Me With Your Best Shot.”
Before I put another notch

Hmmm…torn between ‘Shadows of the Night’ for pastoral beauty and ‘Hell is for Children’ for bad ass rock chick bangin!
In 2010 September 5th was officially proclaimed Pat Benatar Day in St. Louis,MO. Since it´´s creation people from Paris, France to Cordoba, Argentina have become fans of the Official Pat Benatar day page on facebook. Don´´t forget to celebrate Pat Benatar Day this Sunday! I am throwing a party with live music and am baking Pat Benatarts for the event (you can find the recipe on the cakespy website).
My brother recommended I may like this web site. He was entirely right. This put up actually made my day. You cann’t imagine just how so much time I had spent for this information! Thanks!
