This woman has a KILLER voice!! She is amazing and paved the way for so many others. She 100% deserves her place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! Loved her then, love her now, too. ❤️🥰
I've seen a couple of people's posts that they think there's a story behind the song... there very much is... back in the 80s the record labels kept wanting her to dress up like a sexy little kitten Vixen and she was uncomfortable with it... towards the end of the song where they show her album cover when she's bending backwards and she's wearing the skin tight outfit and she's sings the line "sex as a weapon" she looks up at the picture that was kind of a "screw you" to the record labels.. because of her confidence and success in the end she got her way.. directly after that panel in the video you see the giant Bank of Television screens.. in the bottom right-hand corner you see Pat and she has kind of a self-satisfied smirk on her face cuz she got her point across
I think that was true of all women in the 80s that were categorized in the hard rock genre. Heart was another example; the record company had them dress all sexy and then when Ann gained weight they just put Nancy in the front spot in videos. There were Heart videos with Ann singing lead that would hardly ever show her. That whole decade was about sexualizing everything, almost like it is now except you have the occasional Adele who isn't a pinup girl but still sells tons of records. Even in comparison I think the 80s was far more fake than we are currently.
Marcus A Because Madonna acted like a cheap sleazy slur. Pat was just herself. A confident singer that didn't have to dress South or act it as well . Pat is the bomb!!
Paul Morrison your right on the money but one thing madonna and pat benatar were different madonna was top 40 bubblegum pop and pat was album rock think at the time so were the eurythmics women in rock female rights
I'm not so sure about this as a single but I think it's so awesome that she throws her old 45s up there as examples of sexual exploitation. I think that is just swell
Back in the 80s I was a young lad and listened to mainly rock/metal back then as I still do, but some of the 80s pop songs were okay, this being one of them.
I like how she looks up at the cover in the corner near the song's end...it was a smack in the face to the record company that kept pushing her to have a sexier image but she did not agree with it.
She has much better songs I'll admit (Love is a Battlefield and Invincible), but Sex as a Weapon has always been my favourite, cracking vocals and beat.
To this day I don't know why it wasn't a huge hit worldwide. It's so catchy! Throughout the song there are hooks that make this song unforgettable. I actually remember buying the 12'' single back in the day. What a great track!
Do You really think You can have a worldwide hit by telling people not to use sex as a weapon? This only works if you accuse others of using sex as a weapon. But not if you tell YOUR listeners to stop that behavior.
@@Stammeskrieger1 You make a very valid point, but bear in mind that back in the 80's, the translation of lyrics wasn't as accessible as it is nowadays.. Many people would sing songs without understanding their true meanings. I'm one of those, considering English isn't my mother tongue. However I get what you're saying. I still love the song, though.
Adults have always thought "kids these days have crap for music." Of course we're really right this time. I was in college when I first heard this song (on MTV). It was good then and it's still good now. *Kids these days do have crap for music.*
I love how towards the end of the video, Pat puts a picture of herself up from the early days when she was marketed as a sex symbol. She looks at it and shakes her head.
As the song suggests pat benatar is a musician and is very serious about the music she writes and records and does not like to be stared down as a sex object
I think the _video_ did go somewhere... didn't it win at the MTV awards in '86? But the song then just became a backing track to the video, which is a shame. It's funny how some songs are mostly remembered for the video, not the song itself. Another example was "Money for Nothing".
One of her best but the public always likes the poppy sounds. We belong, Hit me with your best shot, etc. her best songs were this , Precious time, Fire and Ice, Shadows of the night. You can keep Best shot.
This song was Pat's Finger wave at advertisers to stop using Sex to sell products. If you notice at the end of the video they show models with several different consumer products. What is even more interesting is that they flash a picture of her early years and her reaction is priceless. This video was nominated for 6 MTV music video awards for editing, sound, etc. Pat did not win any of the 6. However, in 1986, she won Favorite Female Video artist on the American Music Awards.
That describes the video but the song doesn't really fit the video. The song lyrics sound like a sexually frustrated woman obsessed with a man that she has the hots for.
@@taylorm7777 the video is actually just a storyboarded series of effects, a big experiment for the man who made it, so there’s really no big meaning to the video in that respect. It’s a show of flash, excess, and visual marketing. In that way, it’s very tongue in cheek, but nothing more and certainly nothing deep.
Why Pat isn't in the Hall of fame is a complete sham. She should have been elected this year but the powers that be keep as many woman out as possible. Get with the times boys this isn't life in the pre 1980's anymore. Let her and all the other deserving women in already.
@@paultreadaway102 Obviously we're biased, but come on... the music industry in the '80s was easily the best era ever. You couldn't swing a 12-inch stick without hitting a legendary, huge-name rock star/pop star. And MTV was beyond iconic. What do they have now? Hip-hop and rap garbage, pro tools, auto-tune, over-produced garbage aimed at Zoomers that don't know any better and only care about downloading the latest soup-of-the-day trend from the latest release by "JayEyeEm Super-Daddy-Z featuring Busta Big Daddy G and Dr. Slappy-Pants P-Funk Jippy-Jammer A.K. Flux-Butt".
I think in her VH1 Behind The Music show she mentions the record company pushing for sexier album jackets, sexier image, etc. I believe this song was part of a response to that demand.
I was in Our House with a Garden in ‘89. I saw this Monumental Music Video! I’m from Budapest. This Music Video is Unforgettable!!! I’m in Van Nuys, California, 91405…I was 24 years old and right now I am in my 58th year…
That was a slag at her managment & Chrysalis for wanting her to look that way to sell her music. You can see it in all the photos on her early 80's material and 7" singles. She was never happy about it - and she was right. She had/has an awesome vocal ability, she didn't need to sell based on her looks - unlike many other female singers needed to...
@jimboslice5647, was so freaking cool seeing her live performances multiple times, wasn’t it? I believe the wifey and I made it to 5 performances, (kinda lost count).
One of her very best, killer hooks, propulsive Grombacher beat, Spyder doing what Spyder does, and her amazing vocals. Everything that's great about Benatar in 4 perfect minutes. She was too good for pop audiences. We didn't deserve her.
Just as good but when u on the back of Invinsible lots of Artists would felt that deliver an epic song,backed up with this which for most is an underated Song and cool indeed, whatever it did on the Chart.She only had All Fired Up next i prefer the rare gems of theirs like this
I had that luck and I agre. Those were crazy times, full of fun as never before or after.... If I only remember those endless night with GROUP of friends around....
Neil has such great taste in riffs and melody....one of my favorites. This, Le Bel Age, and especially Too Long a Soldier are fav examples of just how talented he has been over their RRHOF careers!
This shouldn't be just about advertising. Fact is people think the most important thing in life is to be noticed, be sexy and/or wear skin tight gym pants and shirts. What a dumb culture. Californian culture has truly spread worldwide, it makes me want to see the world blown up.
saw Pat on Tuesday night in Philly...at 58 she has lost very little, age has been infintely better to her than most 80s rockers. She is a world class talent, and when you see her live, you forget just how many top 40 hits she had - the set list was a monster!
The record company didn't give them enough time to finish their albums, they were on a strict every 9 months new album schedule and by the time this 7th album, aptly titled 7 the Hard Way was released, things got bad between them and Chrysalis. It's all in Pat's new book, Between a Rock & a Heart Place. Great insight into being female in the 80's music scene. The album only had 9 songs and most were not to their satisfaction. Definitely affected sales as well as the charts.
Brilliant video with the best voice range of all time! The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame where are you on this! Pat can sing anything! The best female rocker and vocals ever! As for the 10 dislikes...you all know nothing about true power and range with vocals because Pat has the ultimate best of all time!!! Love Ya Pat!!!!!
I love the way the song/video has a kind of weariness and disapproving tone to it - about sleazy marketing and sex selling everything - whilst at the same time musically sounding like it would not be out of place at a poll dancing establishment! Love that funky bassline...
A time when many rockers from the 70s were following technology to enhance their sound. This track retains enough of Ms. Benatar's attitude to be viable, though.
@@helloskinny510 It was the 80s. GErmany had a very opulent pop scene. One of my favorite artists Jennifer Rush had a thriving career there and almost ignored everywhere else despite having one of the greatest voices of our time.
This was a song way ahead of its time. Pat Benatar is a singer ahead of her time. She fought behind the scenes to open up music to women. She's a living Hall of Fame.
+Eric Springer For the last bloody time EVERYONE has EVERYTHING before that thieving old no-talent sex-mad old slag from hell. Kim Wilde was projecting a svelte and sophisticated image and using Marilyn Monroe stage imagery with snippets of the Peggy Lee classic 'Fever' befor ethe old harpy did a dirge of it, and she was singing about a special place to get away from people-a sort of heaven, and commenting on relationships in Hollywood, long before that old trout started it. Plus Slag's True Poo album completely rips off the blue/white cover of Kim's classic 3rd album "Catch As Catch Can". The nasty old bints nicked left right and centre from just about every man and woman out there, but then they are artists and she's just a foul old pretender, for thick other clones with nothing in their lives but worship a pathetic old crone like her that has nothing good about it! Just saying.
Benatar/Giraldo band were so underrated. They took off in the late 70's and made several great records, yet their popularity faded in the mid-late 80's despite continuing to make really good albums.
This song has to be the most longeve unknown track I wished to find out in my personal list. I had it recorded on cassette from an old TV show which didn't mention the title, it was probably 1989 or so, 25 years later using Shazam or SoundHound I found it and it was just a relief, I played it countless times with such a smile on my face!
This woman has a KILLER voice!! She is amazing and paved the way for so many others. She 100% deserves her place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame! Loved her then, love her now, too. ❤️🥰
What happened to her?
I really like this song you rock pat I dance to 5th his song I really like you I like your voice🎉
I love how at the end of the video she includes a photo of herself posing for one of the In The Heat of the Night album photos.

Now I'll have to watch it again, ..I've loved this song for so long
Probably even more relevant today than when it was released? We have gone backwards, not forwards.
Agreed, and in more ways than one... 😕
Still sounds as good today (September 2019), anyone with me
Like a fine wine, Pat gets even better with age.
September 2020,and still listening to this classic
Yes 2020!
I'm here, Mate. Nov 2020.
Yes
I can't believe Like A Virgin went to number 1 and this song only went to 28. People are crazy
I like her and Madonna but I think I like this song better...
Marcus A Because Madonna acted like a cheap sleazy slur. Pat was just herself. A confident singer that didn't have to dress South or act it as well . Pat is the bomb!!

@@sethschiller832 : God how we've devolved in a few, short, decades.

A song of hers that never really went anywhere but I think it's one of her best.

Simply one of the best, most iconic music videos of the 80's. All the color, all the visuals and a very strong song. It's a music video Mona Lisa.
It's a candidate for the next Golden Disc to Mars! The aliens are guaranteed to leave us alone then. 😂
One of my favorites albums, easy listening great performance

Well I don't know about that cuz it did have lots of drugs back there 😢and I did my fair share 😅but dang was it fun

Interesting that she looks at her own album in disgust at 3:47.

FORGET GAGA & BRITTNEY! BENATAR RULEZ!!!!!!
Well yeah...there's the 80s Divas and then there's slightly more attractive pretenders with far less talent. Pat Benatar was THE Diva.
Always makes me smile this video, especially the use of her own early album cover as a point made.

She has many faves, but this is an absolute favorite. Pop perfection.

@jimboslice5647, was so freaking cool seeing her live performances multiple times, wasn’t it? I believe the wifey and I made it to 5 performances, (kinda lost count).
Not in 1997. She opened for Styx and sat on a stool the whole time.

2022 and cranking this song. Who's with me?
This was also a song about how the record labels would push her early on in her career in marketing as a sexually charged diva, which she hated.

Message music. Familiar territory for her. Love is a Battlefield and Hell is for Children. All great songs, but this one, they tried too hard.

I love it .when pat benatar say I got my heart around your little finger..
FINALLY!!! THIS ROCK GODDESS IS NOMINATED FOR THE ROCK-N-ROLL HALL OF FAME!!! She deserves to get in!!! I love love love her!!!
Benatar/Giraldo band were so underrated. They took off in the late 70's and made several great records, yet their popularity faded in the mid-late 80's despite continuing to make really good albums.
Pat’s a kick ass rock chick and should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame !
Thought I imagined this song had to type the words to see I did hear this song in the 80's
Was this a hit for her? It's really a strong track.
peaked at number 28 on billboard
Great Song!
This song is so much better than I remember it. I really hated it at the time.
Still listening Jan 2022 ....Hell yeah
On point...
I love this song, haven't heard it in ages
I love this song, its 80's at the peak of video hits btw thats her husband playing the guitar, I like when she's in the blond wig 1:57
Amazing video, amazing Pat....whatever happened today....
This was the funk.
Great song
Who cares why she wrote it. It's fucking ace
Songwriters: Billy Steinberg / Tom Kelly.
This song has to be the most longeve unknown track I wished to find out in my personal list. I had it recorded on cassette from an old TV show which didn't mention the title, it was probably 1989 or so, 25 years later using Shazam or SoundHound I found it and it was just a relief, I played it countless times with such a smile on my face!
