I’ve always heard that, but had she ever performed opera before she hit the radio? Looking back, he seemed kinda young to have done all that and bank telling too.
This is the first time I heard that Benetar was not in the Hall. It figures, she told the music industry to F***OFF when they told her that females could not be concert headliners. Rock on Pat. We need a R&R Hall of Fame board who won't drive us crazy.
Love this woman, her music and her legacy - true, she doesn’t get the credit she deserves (“credit” = Hall of Fame) but she is recognized and idolized by her fans the world over. Her contributions to popular music are immense and immeasurable. We love you, Pat!
I have to say that Pat benatar is ONE VERY HOT WOMAN. I remember being at one of her concerts and accidently found myself backstage. I used to have a shirt she autographed inscribed DAN- Rock on and remember we are youn. Stay coolsigned Pat Benatar. Just playing these videos reminds me how awesome the 80's really were.
Ah, the late 70’s! What a Time for Artists like this! Headliners doing covers of songs, from those they know are coming up, behind them... Well!, Ye-e-yea-e-yeah!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤como me hubiera gustado conocer a mi idolo femenino e. Esta maravillasa E inolvidable ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤i love pat for ever ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤god bless for e ever❤❤❤❤❤
Wow.. bring back so much memories of my youth. Had all her albums back in the day and still enjoy her music. I love to watch Myron Grombacher play the drums... He's like in his own world on that stage and giving his all. :)
wow go pat circa 1979 rockin this classic when music was music now john cougers version was great also.lets just say they both are classic timeless hits that will be around when we are all gone 50 years from now well depending on how old you are, but pat belongs in the rock and roll hall of fame thumbs up if you agree
Interesting story behind this song. This was the first song John Melloncamp ever released, and it bombed. Then PB recorded and released it, and I believe it was her first hit. Shortly after that, Melloncamp exploded on the scene with Jack and Diane. So Melloncamp re released I need a lover, and it became a huge hit for him!
See her on tour now!!! She's more impressive now than in her heyday. She has made some adjustments to those high notes but it works-in key, no cracking, no way-past-her-time moments like some other singers of the time - male - David Lee Roth (god-awful) or female - Debra Harry (past her prime). Her husband is still on top of his game and adding piano to the mix. Played hits and some newer ones but well worth it. Why these two are not in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame is shameful. They are one of the best rock songwriting duos in American music history. They have hits, record sales, touring miles, and longevity. What more do they have to do to get in?
@@rg2027x if you're referring to trans people the term transvestite originated in 1910 when the first transgender operations took place. Roman emporer elagabalus preferred to be called "lady" as opposed to "lord" and was considered to be one of the earliest trans figures in history.. and that was around 200 AD... so for 2 THOUSAND years before "your" great america.. based on your logic "women werent women"
@@danschriver75 so you cut/paste plagiarized from Wiki. while modifying their wording to make it appear your thoughts. Great. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgender_history Why not just post the link to save all the typing Dan? Also, elagabalus should be capitalized as it refers to a person, not an entity.. Based on your logic, the only women who aren't women are transvestites. Historical fact: there were actual women (you know, birth-born ladies who _didn't_ have sex change operations) for 2000 years before America was established. You ought to brush up on your Wikipedia pilfering a bit more!
i don't care what they say at the rock hall... pat benatar you rock and have always rocked and should be in the hall way before whitney and the fat guy.. those two together do not know what rock and roll is.. if they want a rap and whatever her music is hall o fame then they should build one and leave this to real rockers
Remember..This was done before she ever got famous she had just released her album and was playing small nite clubs that had horrible acoustics!!...tinny sound and her voice is hoarse sounding..but she is by far the greatest of her era...her voice was so powerful and raw and great stage presence
I initially heard this album in a record store the day she was there promoting it, I ended up buying it and waiting in line for her to sign it. Saw her in concert the next night.

I really get sick of our over complaining "you owe me everything" childish generation we've made. I love Pat because she was who she was without apologies but also had something called grace and humility which is also lacking on our world today. Pat worked and EARNED everything she's ever made without "privilege" and i'm certain she had her fair share of record execs calling her "honey" and "sweetheart" but she never let that define her. It doesn't hurt having a great band behind her but give me Pat Benatar any day over lady gagme
I thought Myron Grombacher was an awesome drummer LIVE. You had to watch all of them individually though. They were a solid band that LOVED the music and it showed. 🙂
At least you got to experience some of the best years of the rock era! Growing up in the 90s, I was always jealous of the generations that had come before me because of the awesome music that was happening everywhere at the time. But checking out the charts now I'm just glad I got to experience the rock era at all, even if it was only the tail end of it.
I was just thinking, there was a time back in the day when she basically owned this song, the eventually they started playing John Cougars' (as he was known as back then) version occasionally, then slowly more more, till eventually they hardly ever play Pat Benatar's version on the radio anymore....

Pat and Neil are one of the best couples in Rock, and he doesn't get enough credit for his guitar playing. And she is the Queen of Rock, IMO! :)
pat is one hell of a guitarist ...wayy underated !!!!!
100%
In 100 years, this music will still be good and the current crap they call music will be forgotten
She's adorable and she can sing anything! As a trained opera singer, she can really hit those high notes!
I’ve always heard that, but had she ever performed opera before she hit the radio? Looking back, he seemed kinda young to have done all that and bank telling too.

I haven’t heard this for so long, I was beginning to wonder if I daydreamed it. I’m glad that I found it.
Me 2 !!! 😅
Love that she’s been married to a guy who didn’t drive her crazy for 45 years now- plus he plays some great licks
How can you be cooler than that?! Love you, Pat!
We are the last generation that lived in a free world
And Neil gives a look, that says, " yes baby girl, our stage' love it!
I was lucky to see her in concert in the late 80s. she kicked ass. best concert ever !
I miss the early 80s
Saw her last week and she still does this one live, very good too.
Of course I've heard Pat's version many times, but I don't think I've ever seen this video. It was a treat!

ONE OF EARTHs MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMEN & PRECIOUS SOULS!!!! 🤗
If it wasn't for Pat and Joan Jett the female artists of future generations wouldn't have had as many opportunities.. 🎸 Rock On folks
Wow.. bring back so much memories of my youth. Had all her albums back in the day and still enjoy her music. I love to watch Myron Grombacher play the drums... He's like in his own world on that stage and giving his all. :)
👑!!! One of the Best of all time ❣️
John Mellencamp did an awesome version of this song but this is a killer version.
John wrote the song. This is a cover.
@@telegramsam2932 lol how soon they forget
@@telegramsam2932 I have always like hers much better.
She Rocks and Always Will. Put Her in the Hall of Fame Now!!
I love you both Pat and Neil...I'm a big fan of your records.
From a Fan of Brazil, a thousand hugs.
This song was written by John Mellencamp. Yes, the man also known as John Cougar Mellencamp.
I need Pat comes back ! This voice is unbelievible ! Thank you too ! C'est fille est trop cool ! J'adore!!!
Love it when Pat steps back and rocks out with the band.
I still love Pat Benatar,takes me back to the good ol daze!!
She was awesome live. Saw her In March 86 at William and Mary Hall. Just a great concert. She sounded awesome. Great show.
My idol since her first album came out...and I get to see her (and Spyder) again tonight!!! :)
Im reading her book right now and its phenom! I defintely reccommend
t ladd she wrote a book? Never heard that!
In the 1980's, singers could sing.
They did not rely on fake backup BS.
They could belt out anything.
A real era of real music.
George Vreeland Hill
She is a miracle. Lovely! Perfection! Talent!

What's a Katy Perry? Thank you Pat for all your hard rocking music. I enjoyed your concert in South Florida.
I love it. Not John Cougar though...
As usual , Pat nailed it !!!
❤❤❤
I had a teenage crush on Pat Benatar..That was 30 years ago and 30 years later I still have that crush.😍😍
this is how its done! not like the fake stuff of nowadays!
in your face!!!!!!!!!!! what a voice that´s rock
powerful version...hats off geraldo!!!
You rock on Pat !!
I believe he did. I can't decide if I like is version or her version better. They're both great.
Ten glos :) pelen pozytywnej energii:)
1st tour using a BC Rich Bass. Bloody fingers all over Europe!! !979 Scott St Clair Sheets, and the rest...
These were the times when "America was "GREAT"!
for real...the music fuckin *rocked*, women were women, musicians did the popular music and songs actually had guitar solos!
Mellencamp did it better in every way

Yup, this was live, no question about that. She'll always "rock."
Great legend she amazing woman
Super.Danke fürs hochladen 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏
Wow, I've never seen or heard her version, this is incredible. I like John's version too, but this one rocks.
This is the most 80s thing I've seen today
I fell in love with Pat as a shy teenager… love her music

💗 LOVE ❤️ THEIR MUSIC SINCE I WAS 11!
Remember..This was done before she ever got famous she had just released her album and was playing small nite clubs that had horrible acoustics!!...tinny sound and her voice is hoarse sounding..but she is by far the greatest of her era...her voice was so powerful and raw and great stage presence
i once posed the question? is this chick from another planet! WOW,what a voice
What are you talking about? She wsa a superstar before John Cougar even wrote this song. She was filling stadiums when she did this cover.
@@jshelhorse Nope. This was off her first album, which came out in August of '79. John released his album with "I Need a Lover" a month earlier.
I initially heard this album in a record store the day she was there promoting it, I ended up buying it and waiting in line for her to sign it. Saw her in concert the next night.
Rock n Roll Hall of Fame !!! 🤟💜🤟💜
By far this the best performance o her
I felt like this a long time ago. She's great!!❤
Pat , is that correct, you come out with this new awareness. Good for you both 👍
toujours un plaisir de l'écouter .....................
I have to say that Pat benatar is ONE VERY HOT WOMAN. I remember being at one of her concerts and accidently found myself backstage. I used to have a shirt she autographed inscribed DAN- Rock on and remember we are young. Stay coolsigned Pat Benatar.
THE QUEEN OF ROCK
Definitely one of my favorite Pat Benatar songs. Such a powerhouse love it
Written by John mellencamp
Best voice EVER
You can tell she is in love in this video.
Great band!:) brings back memories.
Killed!!!
Shes in my hall of fame🤠😎🤓✌
Great song
When MTV first came on the air in 1981, Pat was my favorite. Sexiest women on MTV.
Still don't know whose version is the best. John Mellencamp's has a great guitar rift, but Pat's voice brings out crazy
She is so beautiful and radiant just walking out, just an observation.
how can anybody put thumbs down they must have their thumbs up their you know what
I saw her in Milwaukee back in the 70s. Her drummer was awesome as well as Herself. Sexy outfit.
You are driving me crazy!
She puts attitude into this song,something John cougar couldnt.
I really get sick of our over complaining "you owe me everything" childish generation we've made. I love Pat because she was who she was without apologies but also had something called grace and humility which is also lacking on our world today. Pat worked and EARNED everything she's ever made without "privilege" and i'm certain she had her fair share of record execs calling her "honey" and "sweetheart" but she never let that define her.

So awesome!
LOVE IT.
Definitely like her version best!
Neil is just smokin
I thought Myron Grombacher was an awesome drummer LIVE. You had to watch all of them individually though. They were a solid band that LOVED the music and it showed. 🙂
buena interpretacion de pat
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've always prefered Pat's version to John's.
beauty and talent. can carry off the lyotard look.
You ever heard of Halsey? She remind s me of you. You’ve been inspirational in my life. :)
She still kicks it
You drive me crazy (Patricia
First time I heard Her do this was on "American Bandstand " , I think it was 1979...Yes I'm ancient !
At least you got to experience some of the best years of the rock era!

True...
i despise john mellencamp, but i adore pat benatar. this song goes either way for me
😂 Very hard to find a secure and mentally stable person to love. Thank heavens there is so much fun things to do in life!😎
Best cover ever she,s the best❤❤❤
Never knew she covered this I like this version better
If you lik pat benatar. That's. Very cool.
Peter Gatt
I love both versions. But I relate more to this version. :)

Buddy, she’s gonna kick your ass! And you’ll like it!
