Crank it and kick back and watch her Rock !!! At 2:17 this song just explodes, the lyric's too are incredibly cutting ...
See HERE

The Lyrics:
Armed and ready, you fought love battles in the night
But too many opponents made you weary of the fight
Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in
All the warnings went off in your head
Still you had to give in
Just when you think you got it down
Resistance nowhere to be found
They whisper, Promises In The Dark
But promises, you know what they’re for
It sounds so convincing, but you heard it before
Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure
And so you put up your guard
And you try to be hard
But your heart says try again
You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear
No line of attack has been planned to fight back the tears
Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost
On the edge is where it seems it’s well worth the cost
Just when you think you got it down
Your heart in pieces on the ground
They whisper, Promises In The — Dark
1) Pat rocks. Seriously.
2) Was written long before The Big Zero sullied our national stage, and on a very different topic, but I can certainly see some applicability.
The Guitarist too can play ... But Pat is just awesome in this song ... Wish I would have seen her back then ...
If so, his name is Niel Giraldo, and he's a very lucky man.
Very.

While Pat is one of my all time favorites (I was in puberty when she came to life), this is the song I like least by here.
It is about child abuse and I never took a liking to it.
I’m not much of a concertgoer, but I saw Pat Benatar once in HS or college.
Amazing voice. Just incredible.
Well, he’s much younger in that video but yes, I’m sure that’s him, he could play !!! And he doesn’t look like a strung out rocker, in the vid he looks like he’s a jock, a different look for sure. And yes, he’s blessed, boy has Pat aged well, like Wine, she looks great, thanks for the pic !!
Wow! That’s a ‘blast from the past’.
The song I posted is not that song, you’re thinking of “Hell is for Children” ...
Her song about child abuse is “Hell is for Children.”
You are correct. I recind my earlier post. I was confused and am now embarrassed.
Thank you for the correction.
That’s him, I saw Pat when she was pregnant with her first child Hailey at the Nassau Coliseum. I’m feeling old!
Ping & bttt
Hmm ... I’ve never thought of “Promises in the Dark” being a child-abuse song (HifC certainly is), but I can see how someone might interpret it that way.
Shadows of the Night....It was one of the first videos for MTV.
Now a little trivia since we are living in the distant past.
What was the first video played on MTV? Who sang it? :o)
That's "Hell is For Children."
I was wrong. It was “Hell is for Children” I was thinking of. My mistake was pointed out. Sorry.
I was wrong. I was thinking of the wrong song.
I hate it when I do that....
