“Love Is a Battlefield” was one of Pat Benatar’s biggest hits, recorded as a new studio track for her 1983 live album Live from Earth. Framed as an empowering anthem about resisting a toxic relationship, the song paired glossy pop-rock production with one of Benatar’s most memorable vocal performances. Its groundbreaking video with a dramatic narrative and choreographed dance sequences, helped turn it into her biggest Hot 100 hit, reaching #5 and becoming one of the defining pop-rock singles of the 1980s.
