Pat was more than just rock but she did rock. She was an opera singer. She has a range that is unbelievable. Have to get past the idea that bands are boxed into a category or style of music.
Another one from a different genre is Rob Halford from Judas Priest! He was also classically-trained. One thing that cannot be denied is that music from the early 90s and back were people that had fantastic voices and actually singing with no electronic help or Machinery to alter their voices. Pure music!
The thing about music from the 70's - 80's is this; Never judge a group/singer by only one song of theirs. They will ALWAYS surprise you!! That was the great thing about music from that Era. Variety!! Pick a concert, any one from then and you'll hear it all! That's why I Love this era, still. Scorching guitar solos that will burn your eyebrows off to beautiful, soaring vocals that can bring tears to your eyes. It was the best music. Pure talent. No autotune. You will Always be surprised!! 😊💜🎶
Pat Benatar is a powerhouse vocalist in a petite frame. She had a lot of great songs in the 80's such as "Heartbreaker", "We Live For Love", "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", Fire & Ice", "Shadows Of The Night", "Love Is A Battlefield", "We Belong", "Invincible", "All Fired Up", "Treat Me Right", "Promises In The Dark" etc.
My personal favorite is Promises in the Dark. She really shows off her vocal range. I also like He'll is for Children. It's a sad song that really makes a statement.
The live version that's on her "Best Shots" album (I'm referring to "Hell Is For Children") starts with a special "intro". I'll have to see if I can find it, and post it. th-cam.com/video/2EIqoYKBuHo/w-d-xo.html
Pat Benatar was a classically trained vocalist, her range is phenomenal! She is a powerhouse of a singer, that’s why her music stands the test of time.
You're absolutely right! I read an articlei in an interview by her and she admitted that she thought because of her training it would be an easy transition to do rock and found that not be the case! She had to learn to belt it out like a rocker with a little grit instead of the smoothness of a classically trained voice.
Pat was in training to be an opera singer. She was told she'd never make it. Joke's on her "teacher". BTW, she also sings the harmonies on the recordings.
Pat was a classically trained mezzo-soprano. I heard just her and her partner for a night of their songs and she blew the house down. She has gigantic pipes in person. If you want her big sassy: Hit Me With Your Best Shot?
Pat Benatar is one of the baddest women in Rock! Together with her hubby, Neil Giraldo, they put out some of the greatest songs and videos of the 80s. And their marriage has lasted nearly 40 years 💞
You want grit? HELL IS FOR CHILDREN!! She wrote this song after seeing an article about kids that were killed by family members. It’s haunting and she emotes EVERY emotion.
This song was nominated for a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Shadows of the Night, or Treat Me Right for more form her.
Y'all really need to give a listen to Melissa Etheridge, a huge female artist, big in the late 80s and early 90s. Loved the Pat Benatar pick, great job as always! :)
Tried to tell you guys earlier; she covered Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights, which is so beautiful to hear. She has such a voice that is unforgettable. The woman was classically trained, but rock was always her passion.
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee To each their own. I don't like Kate Bush's voice. I think Pat adds a power to the song Kate doesn't. No disrespect, just personal tastes. Appreciate she wrote a song that I love Pat and Neil covered so brilliantly.
I absolutely love both. Kate Bush is unique. She writes all her songs, produces everything herself. She has created her own musical universe. As much as I admire Pat Benatar's voice, I don't think she fits in that category.
Pat Benatar is the best rocker! Starts mellow then, grows... She has a wonderful voice. This was one of her "ballads" used as a breather in her concerts. Thanks for bringing it.
If you're wanting an 80's female with a powerful voice, I recommend Sheena Easton. In particular, Strut, Almost Over You, Telefone, (the Bond song For Your Eyes Only, is ok, but not great IMO) and a fantastic duet w/Kenny Rogers "We've Got Tonight". Of course she performed with Prince on "U Got the Look" too but that doesn't showcase her voice well.
Prince wrote Sheena Easton a song, Sugar Walls. He sent it over along with his telephone number, telling her if she wanted to record it to give him a call. -> It became a top 10 hit for her.
A friend of mine once asked me to sing at her wedding. She said "That Pat Benatar song. You know the one." (meaning this one). Without missing a beat I said "Love is a Battlefield ?"
"Fire and Ice" and "Heartbreaker" will rock you. I like "Treat Me Right" and "Promises in the Dark"- can't go wrong with any of those. Pat Benatar is a queen. "Hell is for Children" is heavy emotionally but is a great song as well.
“It's all so confusing this brutal abusing….they blacken your eyes and then apologize” and, “Be a good little boy, and you’ll get a new toy, tell grandma you fell of the swing.” Hell Is For Children!! She SCREAMS in this song. Soooo good
Pat's first three albums, "In the Heat of the Night", "Crimes of Passion" and "Precious Time" are my favorites before the synthesizers took over. Her blues album "True Love" is good as well.
If I could choose one song to represent all that this woman and her band encompasses it would be “ Promises In The Dark” , the whole song is electric. Her vocal range is on full display with her husband , Neil Giraldo, on lead guitar just killing it. It’s a perfect rock composition. This song will be on repeat on your favorite playlist. It’s just builds n builds, leaving you wanting more, Enjoy!💯❤️
My son was just learning to pull himself up when this video came out. I would leave the TV on MTV all day. He would stop whatever he was doing and crawl to the TV, pull himself up and bounce up and down when it played. When it was over, he would plop down and leave. Great memories.
If I am not mistaken, she was pregnant at the time, and it wasn't surprising to see her lean toward a slightly smoother style... yet still singling with her incredibly beatiful and powerful voice.
Even though it's a little bit slower it's still considered Rock. That's why we have things called Soft Rock, Rock Anthems, and Rock Ballads. This one is considered Soft Rock. Rock is way more than just the hard stuff! 😎
Nice reaction. This song came out when all the record companies demanded ballads from the rock groups. Power ballad was all the rage at the time. Most of the rest of her songs are of the rocker variety. Pat is an amazing vocalist who can sing anything.
Pat rocks, but this was different and next level in my opinion. If I recall correctly (and it is over 35 years, so my memory may not be right) she was pregnant with her first child when this album was being recorded, and Pat felt the need for the album to reflect her emotions of the time. Interestingly this was sung in the final episode of Super Girl (which I finally got round to seeing last night) - and I thought to myself, I haven't listened to that in a while, and I'd like to see someone's reaction to it.... so I looked it up and well you had just recorded the reaction in the last 24 hours... so that's cool. As for voice... again this is through my fuzzied memory, but I think I heard that she was trained opera singer.
I remember when all the music you listen too now, from the 70's and 80's, at the time we thought was normal and would always be done to a high level we were... blessed ...and....spoiled. I love watching your channel and watching you listen and react to music I loved. I am able to rediscover all over again through you as you discover it. Keep up the great videos and great work!
Guys, the suggestion to watch fast times at Ridgemont High, is absolutely, a great suggestion. You will see pat benatar influence immediately. Great 80s movie. Great sound track! RobSquad Fam is best!😊
For a female Friday, ya'll should check out the cover that Joan Jett does of "crimson and clover "..... another little softer side to Joan, that ya don't often hear 😉 ❣️❣️
Pat Benatar can sing a wide variety of music. Another great song of her that I love from her rocker side is All Fired Up. She also did an album of Blues songs called True Love. Another song that ends with a children's chorus is Fleetwood Mac's Say You Will (Stevie Nicks lead vocals).
A friend of mine called this the best pre-wedding song. You know, like the night before when the nerves get to you and you start questioning every life decision that led you to that moment? If you get through this song and honestly, _honestly_ , with serious thought and reflection, picture yourself being like this -- not only right then but also decades in the future, after putting in teamwork and effort and determination not to let the negatives pull you down and break you apart -- then walking down that aisle just feels like the natural thing to do. I have no idea if it's true. I'm all for building _family_ but my feelings about _marriage_ are more complicated. 😅 But it seemed like a really nice thought.
Not only a talented singer songwriter and performer... her marriage and family life is also a hallmark of her successes. She DESERVES to be in Rock n Roll hall SO many times over.
Pat Benatar is just phenomenal. My two suggestions for songs to check out next from her are All Fired Up or Invincible, though anything from her catalog would be amazing. Rock on Jay & Amber! 🤘🎶🤘🎶
This is HANDS DOWN my favorite song by Pat Benatar! Such a beautiful song and an amazing showcase of her vocal talent! Absolutely exquisite! My recommendation this time is another vocal powerhouse lady of the 80s. You've reacted to her before, but there's a particular song I want to see you react to; Bonnie Tyler's "Faster Than the Speed of Night" (specifically, the full 6 minute 46 second version). Such an amazing song, I am certain you guys will love it! (By the way, I still want to see your reactions to "Total Eclipse of the Heart," which you said was blocked; I really hope you can finally get that uploaded, even if you have to break it up into multiple parts to do so.)
This is a different type of song for her, but nonetheless as powerful with a style all her own. I'm with Amber on this one, the "Weeeeeee, belong...we belong together" is so Benatar - so epic and classic that few, if any, could pull off. It is my favorite Pat Benatar song - from the music to her voice...and then cue the Children's Choir. Great choice people! This woman was so popular in the 80s that her songs have been used in movies for quite some time...one of the first I remember is "Invincible" from "The Legend of Billie Jean." One of my guilty pleasures. I'm a sucker for female heroes. Please follow up with "Invincible"
One of her many hits, "Promises in the Dark" shows off her impressive vocal range & the versatility of her band from soft ballad to hard driving rock. You'll really like the live performance. th-cam.com/video/7qUFZwJb9GA/w-d-xo.html Her husband is the band's lead guitarist and they will celebrate their 40-year wedding anniversary this year. That's such a rarity in the music industry. :-)
Pat’s voice is all over the place. She can melt your face with rock or lead your ship into the rocks with her siren like voice. This song is the latter. I LOVED the inclusion of this song in Deadpool 2!
Congrats to Pat for her 2nd nomination to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame- 2022. Love Pat Benatar! Got to try ‘Promises in the Dark’ and ‘You better run’. Definitely more rock.
Pat was more than just rock but she did rock. She was an opera singer. She has a range that is unbelievable. Have to get past the idea that bands are boxed into a category or style of music.

Her mother was an opera singer. If it wasn't for Liza Minnelli Pat Benatar would have never wanted to sing.
@@jameshelm2847 I didn't know that!.i love MGM musicals with Liza's mum Judy garland and caberet is one of my fav films! Ta for the info.
Find her version of "Wuthering Heights" if you want to hear an operatic performance. Mind blowing.
@@robertfahr2420 I totally agree...that song is absolutely amazing!!!
The thing about music from the 70's - 80's is this; Never judge a group/singer by only one song of theirs. They will ALWAYS surprise you!! That was the great thing about music from that Era. Variety!! Pick a concert, any one from then and you'll hear it all! That's why I Love this era, still. Scorching guitar solos that will burn your eyebrows off to beautiful, soaring vocals that can bring tears to your eyes. It was the best music. Pure talent. No autotune. You will Always be surprised!! 😊💜🎶
So true!!
True! Pat Benatar had a jazz and blues period as well. I love her range.
@@mortimerbrewster3671 I love the song "Fire and Ice"...
The Wilson sisters (HEART), Stevie Nicks, and Pat Benatar are my 3 (4 technically) fav female rockers!!! 34 y/o dude here stating this proudly.
Pat Benatar is a powerhouse vocalist in a petite frame. She had a lot of great songs in the 80's such as "Heartbreaker", "We Live For Love", "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", Fire & Ice", "Shadows Of The Night", "Love Is A Battlefield", "We Belong", "Invincible", "All Fired Up", "Treat Me Right", "Promises In The Dark" etc.
😍🤩
Definitely, "Heartbreaker" and "Fire and Ice" if you want pure rocker songs!
They’re all amazing but, invincible is my favourite 👌
Promises in the Dark!
So true! It's such a huge voice for someone who probably weighed less than my chihuahuas!
Her mother was a trained opera singer who taught Pat to reach her potential. Pat has a 4+ octave range!
I think Mariah Carey and Cyndi Lauper do, too? I'm sure there are some others.
@@NOTHEOTHERGUY When Mariah was young she was known for her high singing.
A four-time Grammy winner, Benatar is also a classically trained mezzo-soprano.
My personal favorite is Promises in the Dark. She really shows off her vocal range. I also like He'll is for Children. It's a sad song that really makes a statement.
The live version that's on her "Best Shots" album (I'm referring to "Hell Is For Children") starts with a special "intro". I'll have to see if I can find it, and post it.

Love Promises in the Dark.
PITD all day!! My fave too!!
The Wilson sisters (HEART), Stevie Nicks, and Pat Benatar are my 3 (4 technically) fav female rockers!!! 34 y/o dude here stating this proudly.
Pat Benatar was a classically trained vocalist, her range is phenomenal! She is a powerhouse of a singer, that’s why her music stands the test of time.
she says humbly that she only has 3 octaves; which is normal. But if she's trained operatic singer... she has more than a 3 octave range.
You're absolutely right! I read an articlei in an interview by her and she admitted that she thought because of her training it would be an easy transition to do rock and found that not be the case! She had to learn to belt it out like a rocker with a little grit instead of the smoothness of a classically trained voice.

"Hell is For Children" is my favorite song by Pat Benatar...Her music got me through the 1980's as a teenager 🥰☮️✌️
Truth!!
Pat Benatar is one of the baddest women in Rock! Together with her hubby, Neil Giraldo, they put out some of the greatest songs and videos of the 80s. And their marriage has lasted nearly 40 years 💞
And they are so amazing together in concert. Got to see them just a few years ago. Had to pinch myself-never thought I’d get the chance to hear her.
Fate, as he happened to be the guitarist chosen to work on her album.
Both getting into he Hall of Fame. 😻
@@zenseed75 Long overdue
She’s wonderful ❤
Holy crap this is the best Female Friday lineup EVER!! All four songs… Epic!!!
!!!!
Just think, for her whole career her husband has always been her life partner, her writing partner and her guitarist. And they’re still together ♥️
About 40 years or so together. That's forever in the world of music.
If you want to rock and hear her vocal range you need to do "Promises in the Dark".
HELL IS FOR CHILDREN, is another great tune of hers!
Yes!!
Totally agree!!!
You want grit? HELL IS FOR CHILDREN!! She wrote this song after seeing an article about kids that were killed by family members. It’s haunting and she emotes EVERY emotion.
She was such an impact to the industry that she was the first female, second song played on MTV. With You Better Run.
This song was nominated for a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.
Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Shadows of the Night, or Treat Me Right for more form her.
"Shadows of the Night" showcases her melodic voice even better, as does her cover of Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights"
Y'all really need to give a listen to Melissa Etheridge, a huge female artist, big in the late 80s and early 90s. Loved the Pat Benatar pick, great job as always! :)
I'm The Only One will slay them.
@@michaelplowman8674 They already reacted to this very song.
Come to My Window
She was trained for opera and it took her a while, according to her, to find her rock voice. She's awesome!
She can sing anything from this ballad to a harder rock song. Great choice.
I saw Pat about 7 yrs ago! Trust me.. the girl can still rock!!!!
PAT WAS AN OPERA SINGER .
Tried to tell you guys earlier; she covered Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights, which is so beautiful to hear. She has such a voice that is unforgettable. The woman was classically trained, but rock was always her passion.
If you want to hear her show off her classical voice listen to her version of Wuthering Heights
1 of my favorite movies and books. I will give it a listen. Thank you :)
Better than the original by Kate Bush IMO. Pat just has a better voice. (Sorry Kate Bush fans. Just my opinion.)
@@Spo-Dee-O-Dee To each their own. I don't like Kate Bush's voice. I think Pat adds a power to the song Kate doesn't. No disrespect, just personal tastes. Appreciate she wrote a song that I love Pat and Neil covered so brilliantly.
im a Kate Bush fan but realize her vocals aren't her strong point.
I absolutely love both.
Kate Bush is unique. She writes all her songs, produces everything herself. She has created her own musical universe. As much as I admire Pat Benatar's voice, I don't think she fits in that category.
Pat Benatar is the best rocker! Starts mellow then, grows... She has a wonderful voice. This was one of her "ballads" used as a breather in her concerts. Thanks for bringing it.
More songs to dive into “Fire and Ice” “Hell is for Children” “Promises in the Dark” and one of my favorites the banger “You Better Run”
If you're wanting an 80's female with a powerful voice, I recommend Sheena Easton. In particular, Strut, Almost Over You, Telefone, (the Bond song For Your Eyes Only, is ok, but not great IMO) and a fantastic duet w/Kenny Rogers "We've Got Tonight".

@@helindove2237 Lol, yep and it sounded like one of his too.
"Promises in the Dark" is another classic song I'd recommend that really shows some more of Pat Benatar's range.
A friend of mine once asked me to sing at her wedding. She said "That Pat Benatar song. You know the one." (meaning this one). Without missing a beat I said "Love is a Battlefield ?"
At least it wasn't Hell is for Children. 😂
Well, still better than Phil Collins In the Air Tonight. 😄#Lyrics
😹😹😹😹
"Fire and Ice" and "Heartbreaker" will rock you. I like "Treat Me Right" and "Promises in the Dark"- can't go wrong with any of those. Pat Benatar is a queen. "Hell is for Children" is heavy emotionally but is a great song as well.
OMGoodness, "Hell is for Children".... I only played that, like, 50-11 times when. I got it!!!
"Treat Me Right" is an absolute BANGER! "Hell Is For Children" may be her hardest rocker, at least at the end.
“It's all so confusing this brutal abusing….they blacken your eyes and then apologize” and, “Be a good little boy, and you’ll get a new toy, tell grandma you fell of the swing.”
Hell Is For Children!! She SCREAMS in this song. Soooo good
She was opera trained - and was engaged at one point to my ex-boyfriend's brother. She is wonderful!
Pat's first three albums, "In the Heat of the Night", "Crimes of Passion" and "Precious Time" are my favorites before the synthesizers took over. Her blues album "True Love" is good as well.
Her Promises in the Dark is her best!
Almost all the Rockers back in the day also had a few ballads that were really popular!
Pat was a trained opera singer so she could do anything with her voice, whether it be rock and roll or very melodic. Her voice was perfect!
I loooooooooove this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I could choose one song to represent all that this woman and her band encompasses it would be “ Promises In The Dark” , the whole song is electric. Her vocal range is on full display with her husband , Neil Giraldo, on lead guitar just killing it. It’s a perfect rock composition. This song will be on repeat on your favorite playlist.

Yeah, Promises In The Dark is up there. The whole 'Precious Time' album is stellar.

"Whatever we deny or embrace, for worse or for better, we belong together." My favorite Pat Benatar line of all time.
This takes me back to around 1993 when my sister played this record for me, and I've been a huge fan of Pat Benatar ever since.
This is my absolute favorite song from her. She is a trained opera singer, so she has all kind of vocal chops.
She is simply amazing !
You have to remember the 80's was the decade of the power ballad. And everybody put one out. Including Pat.
Pat is so much more than a rocker. Artists back in the day were so much more diversified than artists today.
Pat benatar is and always will be my favorite female vocalist.. you haven't even scratched the surface of Pat benatar
Pat is my all time favorite female artist. I've literally seen her live a half dozen times....
If I am not mistaken, she was pregnant at the time, and it wasn't surprising to see her lean toward a slightly smoother style... yet still singling with her incredibly beatiful and powerful voice.
Even though it's a little bit slower it's still considered Rock. That's why we have things called Soft Rock, Rock Anthems, and Rock Ballads. This one is considered Soft Rock. Rock is way more than just the hard stuff! 😎
Pat Benatar is one of my favorite artist of all time. So glad her music still lives on.
Nice reaction. This song came out when all the record companies demanded ballads from the rock groups. Power ballad was all the rage at the time. Most of the rest of her songs are of the rocker variety. Pat is an amazing vocalist who can sing anything.
Pat Benatar my favorite female singer EVER !!!! And this song is my favorite

Oh yes! Love me some Pat Benatar! And BTW, you need to watch "Fast Times at Ridgemont High"
But don’t watch it with the kids 🤣🤣
Power Ballad. Could not be a rocker in the 80’s without one. Iconic.
Can't go wrong with Pat. Love this song. Next must be Promises in the Dark, followed by We Live for Love and Invincible.
I remember when all the music you listen too now, from the 70's and 80's, at the time we thought was normal and would always be done to a high level we were... blessed ...and....spoiled.

I’ve always loved her voice whatever she sings. So beautiful!
One of my favorite singers, I was up dancing the whole song. Yes, she has range.
I always loved this song! I, too love the involvement of the children's choir. Glad you did this one! My love to all.
One of my favorites...attended many Benatar concerts beginning in 1981!
Guys, the suggestion to watch fast times at Ridgemont High, is absolutely, a great suggestion. You will see pat benatar influence immediately. Great 80s movie. Great sound track! RobSquad Fam is best!😊
I love that little synthesizer hook with the delay effect to create that little echo. It's ICONIC along with the '80s gated reverb drum.
For a female Friday, ya'll should check out the cover that Joan Jett does of "crimson and clover "..... another little softer side to Joan, that ya don't often hear 😉 ❣️❣️
This song was big when it came out. I played it over and over. Couldn't get enough of it.
Pat Benatar can sing a wide variety of music. Another great song of her that I love from her rocker side is All Fired Up.
She also did an album of Blues songs called True Love.
Another song that ends with a children's chorus is Fleetwood Mac's Say You Will (Stevie Nicks lead vocals).
If you remember church singing, the descants were always special, and there's a lot of it in pop and rock

Not only a talented singer songwriter and performer... her marriage and family life is also a hallmark of her successes. She DESERVES to be in Rock n Roll hall SO many times over.
One of the biggest snubs from. #RRHOF ever. If she is not a rock pioneer who is?
“Promises In The Dark” and “You Better Run”, are 2 great ones by Pat I think you’ll love
This is how she started , kept adding a little spice as she went along , you know layers! Beautiful sound ! Suprise ! 😍😍
Pat Benatar is just phenomenal. My two suggestions for songs to check out next from her are All Fired Up or Invincible, though anything from her catalog would be amazing.
Rock on Jay & Amber! 🤘🎶🤘🎶
Love Pat Benatar, she is from my hometown. I saw her live when she came back to New York a couple of years ago
I love Pat ....I consider Pat, Stevie, and Janis to be the trifecta of female vocalists!
Let’s add Brandi to that list
@David Goodman.....you can't forget Karen Carpenter.....there was no one to even come close !
@@urbanurchin5930 I agree Karen was something special
It's hard to believe that it was 41 years ago this month I saw Pat Benatar in concert at the Tampa theater. She's still a rocker!
This is HANDS DOWN my favorite song by Pat Benatar! Such a beautiful song and an amazing showcase of her vocal talent! Absolutely exquisite! My recommendation this time is another vocal powerhouse lady of the 80s.

If you want to rock please react to another Rock Diva: Linda Rostandt - Tell Him!! 🎸
Absolutely love Pat. Thanks for your reaction.

Pat Benatar is one of my favorites singer. Great icon from the 80's. And important influence in music for the next millennium...
Pat Benatar is a musical goddess. Phenomenal.
My mother loved this song. As a little boy I caught my mother singing it. I miss her when I hear this.
Definitely one of her biggest hits. And my favorite of hers. When this came out. You couldn't go anywhere without hearing this song

I LOVED the inclusion of this song in Deadpool 2!
Pat has a voice range of 6 octaves..... AMAZING VOICE!!!!
Congrats to Pat for her 2nd nomination to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame- 2022. Love Pat Benatar! Got to try ‘Promises in the Dark’ and ‘You better run’. Definitely more rock.
one of her best songs! That whole album is amazing!
One of the GOAT's. Love this lady.
She was/is a music teacher. I love it when Amber gets lost. THAT is an eargasm.
Pat is classically trained with a five octave range she can literally sing anything. Check out Le Bel Age, Invincible and ALL FIRED UP!
I think this her greatest song, and one of the most beautiful recordings I've ever heard. After almost forty years it still stuns me.
