🎵 Pat Benatar - Heartbreaker REACTION

[@TidePride]

She won 4 straight Grammy's for best Female Rock Vocal for a reason....Pat is f'n awesome 🤘

[@Sportsref13]

and yet the RNR HoF refuses to induct her...

[@sikazfuc]

@@Sportsref13 rnrhof is a bad joke

[@aaronarnold7653]

Aloha, and not in the HOF...stoopid. a hui hou...

[@Rage_Harder_Then_Relax]

@@Sportsref13 They don't refuse her, she will only take the prize if her husband and other band members are also included being inducted. Get it right!

[@joshuadupuis346]

Her exclusion from the HOF is as bad as Rush being denied for so many years…..the Hall is a joke.

[@detomaso_6235]

She's been married to her guitarist Neil Giraldo for 40 years! So apparently he did all the things to Pat that Lex described! 😂 One of the most underrated rock guitarists, he's awesome.

[@jonschlegel1597]

Um great story but he is nowhere near one of the best or underrated guitarists of all time...

[@leehanson1416]

Spyder is a great producer and studio musician. I don't "underrate" him in the least.

[@detomaso_6235]

@@jonschlegel1597 Did I say he's "one of the best"? No. Stop putting words in my mouth. But he's underrated, no doubt. Most agree. Take your "um" to someone who cares.

[@kevincarpenter8194]

The producer didn't care for the sound of Rick Springfield's guitar work so he brought in Neil for Working Class Dog.

[@kdm71291]

They/she stole him from Rick Derringer. 😉

[@jzander2966]

Go, Pat! Here's hoping she finally gets voted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year. She should've been in years ago.

[@Sportsref13]

rnr HoF is ran by some asshats.. as you say.. Pat should have been in there a long time ago

[@brettkenschaft4239]

Yeah, the R & R HOF has zero credibility in my eyes.... but I still hope she gets in!

[@Rage_Harder_Then_Relax]

simply one of the best female Rock vocalists of all time.

[@ckobo84]

The Rock N' Roll Hall Of Fame would disagree.

[@mariamenegalli2321]

i agree completely, Her and Ann Wilson are rock goddesses in my eyes!!

[@kristijanEX]

The best one.

[@MoMoMyPup10]

went out on a limb with that one huh galen? 😂

[@Habeev07]

Yep, Pat Benatar, Ann Wilson, and Steve Nicks are my favs of all-time. Pat was also a 5 octav singer I believe. Her Classical training paid off huge in R&R. One of the few time Brad shows emotion/reactions during the songs Ive seen at 3:32... Pat has them all under her spell. Brad appreciates the voice ; )

[@scottdaughtry6740]

You can go WAAAAY down the Pat Benatar rabbit hole! A classically trained vocalist, her jazz album is also phenomenal. One of the best female voices EVER, and she still brings it live

[@Retromolarman]

Pat along with Ann and Nancy Wilson are the rock goddesses extraordinaire! The only ladies who can rock just as good as the guys can. They all can sing whatever they want and pull it off! Pure genius and talent unparalleled by any other women during rock's heyday.

[@Habeev07]

I get them confused often too. Ann was the main vocalist of Heart

[@nataliehalveston5706]

Even Brad smiled through the lot of that and he were bopping too. Freaking love your reaction to this.

[@bridgetmccracken1381]

I became a fan when she first came onto the music scene and did an interview where she said "Some girls say if you love me and leave me I will die. I say if you love me and leave me I will kick your ass". :)

[@jaywillingham4085]

Lol, Lex hit that last note right on point.

[@LaserRanger15]

One of the great female rock singers of all time

[@scottvanhille5688]

Pat Benatar is so cool. Shadows of the Night, Fire and Ice, Promises in the Dark are just a few of her hits. She never disappoints. Such a powerhouse!

[@petercofrancesco9812]

That song kills and will always kill. It never gets old. Pat Benatar rock goddess!

[@Frostrazor]

her mother was an opera singer, and Pat benefitted from classical voice training - which carried over into rock - which helped temper that badass belting range that she has. This song has always been a banger - but "Love Is a Battlefield" will always be my favorite.

[@joskokrstulovic1258]

Love Is a battlefield my favorite too.

[@chrisa4695]

Although “Hit Me With Your Best Shot” was perhaps her biggest and best known hit, this one is my favorite.

[@johnr5382]

"Battlefield" and "We Belong" are his biggest hits to date.

[@chrisa4695]

@@johnr5382 Were they? I didn’t like either of those. By then she had moved away from her hard rock edge toward a more pop sound.

[@johnr5382]

@@chrisa4695 Yes, "Battlefield" and "We Belong" reached #5. "Best Shot" reached #10. She has some great rock songs on "Seven the Hard Way" including "Sex as a Weapon" and the grunge/punkish "Red Vision". Wide Awake in Dreamland has a good number of hard rock songs as well as Gravity's Rainbow from 1993. Research can be your friend!

[@JMD1965]

Before Madonna... or Brittany... or Aguilera... there was THIS woman of power and substance!! WHY isn't this performer in the Rock Hall???

[@vicgonzalesable]

Pat has a background in opera, 4 octave range.

[@qhl5579]

2nd Video on MTV was You Better Run by Pat... Great Songs. A trained singer, what a voice....

[@wendyhowe2178]

I had all of her vinyl albums when I was a teenager. They played on my record player in my room over and over...and I played them turned up as loud as I could. Loud is the only way to listen to her with the earphones on of course. I loved her so much. She was excellent in concert too. We share a birthday too. Love this very talented lady. She’s married to the guitar player also. Still married to this day.

[@billyrampersad1750]

We share a birthday with Pat and Rod Stewart too among others ...

[@rls110961]

Same here. I still have all her albums. Played over and over and over.

[@dieselbourbon3728]

Zero auto tune all voice. We called her the no knocker rocker when I was a kid.

[@midnightblue6668]

Pat Benatar is a vocal powerhouse and a rocker...no doubt.

[@loristone9242]

As per usual, Lex is spot ON. Most definitely a fine line to walk, but the recipe is what it is!!!!

[@toben42]

Fast times at Ridgemont high had three pat benatar look a likes. The iconic look.

[@metalmark1214]

Pat Benatar is a great female rock and roller singer. Another couple to check out is Hit Me With Your Best Shot and Promises in the Dark

[@aussiebloke609]

Pat, Bonnie Tyler and Amy Lee make up the perfect female vocal trifecta in my book. :-)

[@funkster007]

Pat and Ann Wilson are my top 2 for rock.

[@johncampbell756]

This is from 1979. She married the guitarist/co-song writer in 1982. They are still together and often perform as a duo. He's also a very underrated guitarist as he could play like this, but played however was best for the song which often meant you wouldn't even have a solo.

[@rubendelgado1865]

She still tours. Time has been good to her voice. She still sounds amazing. Her and her husband (the guitarist) made/make a great team.

[@Mikearice1]

Saw her at a local concert a couple years ago. She still rocked.

[@paullake1114]

As a former Opera singer, Pat Benatar performed well as a Rock singer.

I wish I had a strong, loud voice like hers. So powerful coming out of a Petite woman. 🎶

Neil Geraldo, Pat's hubby, is on lead guitar. Very underrated player. Always had creative, tasty solos. Plus he's from my neck of the woods in the Cleveland, Ohio area! Parma to be exact.

When this album came out, I did EXTRA chores for extra allowance to buy this album!!! This woman was trained in opera & has a 4 octave voice! Her husband had to pull her out of her comfort zone & into doing rock. I, for one, am so glad she made that move! 🤩

I saw her in concert back in 1983, her opening act was Billy Squire who had a few hits around that time. His song The Stroke is one you should review. My favorite Pat Benatar tune is We Live For Love.

Seeing her do this live in Vegas was awesome!

[@michaelgretzky1056]

We're a rock/metal band and do as many or more songs from her (including this one) as any other band. She actually used to be a bank teller an love this quote from her. "I'd be counting money all day and all i could think of was of ways to steal it!" : )
