IMO this is the song that single-handedly ushered in the 1980’s and pointed the way to what “New Wave” would sound like. And I thank God every single day that I was there in the flesh to experience it all at just the right age, a freshman in college.

[DannyDiess]

She's the Queen of Voice. All others never compare.

I am so into my 80s music... I play this song loud in my 1981 Mercury!

[kelvinh]

Gosh this takes me back to the early 80s when everything seemed so right

[Anyone]

Reminds me Summer of 1980! I was going to be a Sophomore in September of that same year!

[gremmiehodad]

She has SO many great songs. but for some reason, this remains my all-time favorite!

[owenjackman]

CRIMINAL that she is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!

How this wasn't a bigger hit has always escaped me. To me, it's Pat's finest song. The riff and the lean, stripped down production grab you straight away, then Pat's strong sensitive vocal comes in, perfectly expressing the song's bittersweet sentiment. The feel of the song has a slightly metallic 'punk' edge to it, with a crunchy, tight guitar sound that's immediate and striking. The lyrics capture the fleeting nature of romance in a succinct and mature way. I still love this decades later - sounding like nothing else, this is a small and original piece of pop greatness.

The singers and musicians were on a different level during this era compared to today !

Listening to this wonderful song again brings tears to my eyes and makes my remind the early eighties when I was sweet 16 and life was much better than today and there was really nothing to worry about. Blessings to everyone! 🤗

My favorite Pat Benatar song. Reminds me of high school graduation - June 1980.

[lancezemla]

Not in the hall but in our "Hearts"💚💛💙

I remember when Johnny Carson held up a photo of Pat on his show in 1980 and the audience went wild. I saw her twice in 1985. She is a total beauty. What an awesome woman. Lots of class, unlike some of the female performers of today.

This is my favorite Pat Benatar song.
'When we get tired
and watch the summer fade away
will you think of romance?
'what will we do?'

[MissDoreen]
