There was a Nola centric video called “Marigny Tumble” posted here a couple years ago. Can’t seem to find it now.



That shite was hilarious. Weird guy riding around NOLA on his scooter.

For the jailbait crowd, I give you creepy Benny Mardones with a 16 year old and magic carpet.


I've always enjoyed the song, but don't remember seeing the video. Now I won't be able to get this out of my head when I hear this song. What were they thinking.

Separate Ways

The most cringe worthy video by an otherwise great band.


Love is a Battlefield video sunk Pat Benatar's career.

Makes me miss the 80s when women actually put some effort into their hair, makeup, and overall appearance.

while it performed well on the charts, it signaled the end of her rock recordings and she hasn't produced a solid rock hit after.

That's just silly.

By the time the Sara video came out it was no longer Jefferson Starship in that Paul Kanter had left the band and actually had lawyers involved to prevent the use of either Jefferson Airplane or Jefferson Starship name use

Neither are significant rock songs similar to what she released prior, as evidenced by the need to Google what came after Love is a Battlefield. They're pop standards made for aerobics studios and little girls' walkmans.. and while they may have seen the Top 40 pop charts, Pat Benatar's rock music producing career had ended.. She married, mellowed and started having kids in 1985.

Lick It Up is pretty awful too.


I’m fully convinced they showed up and the director has this big shoot planned. Paul Stanley doesn’t feel like it and just says to “get a couple local strippers, start a few fires and a close up of Gene flicking his tongue” instead.

The Billy Squier video is the all-time, career-killing bad music video.
Of all the "celebs" I have encountered - that short little turd was the absolutely one of the worst assholes...... ran into him and his entourage in a bar in NO in 1984..

Actually, she was already backing off of hard rock at that point, with "Love Is A Battlefield" being the outlier that was a huge hit for her.
And sorry-Invincible is, for all intents and purposes, a pop/rock song.
