PAT BENATAR QUOTES III

American singer (1953- )

I can't stand what people do to each other. I think we're brilliant as a species. I think we are amazing. I think that God is incredible, that He just gave us everything. Everything in our face. Everything for us to use. And sometimes we're such shitheads. And it makes me crazy.

I think it's ridiculous that kids have to try to decide at eighteen years old what the hell they want to be.

Spend time, talk it out before you get married. And figure it out. Make sure your really big issues you agree on. How you're going to raise your kids. If you're going to have kids. Your religion. All this kind of stuff. What do you think about money? Your morality? All these things. The big shit. Make sure you talk this stuff out, because this is the stuff that counts, not whether or not he picks up his clothes.

It's a little too little
It's a little too late
I'm a little too hurt
And there's nothin' left that I've gotta say
You can cry to me baby
But there's only so much I can take
Ah, it's a little too little
It's a little too late

It's always the same thing: People are always out there doing really good work, both young bands who never get heard for one reason or another, and older bands that aren't getting played because maybe they're not current. And it's always wrong. It's wrong on all levels, so I don't know what you do about it. It is what it is.

interview, AV Club


Ain't nobody livin', in a perfect world
Everybody's out there, cryin' to be heard
Now I got a new fire, burnin' in my eyes
Lightin' up the darkness, movin' like a meteorite
