PAT BENATAR "greatest hits" cd, 2005
career stats:
studio albums...............11
compilations.................30
singles.........................36
this album.........................#47 US
US female rocker who had a string of hits in the 1980s and the early 1990s....
twenty tracks on this compilation...
only "love is a battlefield" reached #1(and that was only in Netherlands and Australia)....
as a matter of fact, I don't like that song but obviously the record buying public does/did....
scored a few top10 hits but not many(was more a top20-30 artist)
I like most of the songs on this one....
most of her subject matter delved with dysfunctional/destructive relationships,domestic violence and child abuse(not sexual,just treating them pretty bad)...
I think she has a good voice for rock music but being a predominantly 1980s artist we hear lots of those horrid hollow synth drums on a number of tracks...
all up, not a bad album but I wouldn't rush out to get her studio albums
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
worst track: you better run
best track: we belong
