Pat Benatar - "Fire and Ice" (#90 of 1981)

In the pantheon of female rock vocalists, Pat Benatar is in the same league as Janis Joplin, Joan Armatrading, Ani Difranco and Melissa Etheridge.  Although "Fire and Ice" is not one of my favorite songs by Benatar, it certainly rocks.

For me, "Promises in the Dark" is a much better song from the same album Precious Time.  The video is your run-of-the-mill rock performance.  Benatar dances (more like sways) to the beat and her delivery is subdued compared to her powerful vocals.
