Hit me with your best shot


Pat will stop singing the song because of gun violence. The song doesn't refer to guns. Shot in the song refers to shot as a colloquialism for attempt

Talk about virtue signaling as a sad attempt (or taking a shot) to be relevant.

Haven't seen her since 1988..She now looks like Pat Benatar after a 3 week meth bender!

Pat is almost 70. She looks fine.

Good point. More pro violence than Hit Me...

Her lesser known hit SEX AS A WEAPON, too. Probably the worst of the lot.

Too bad..that song is all about female mental toughness.

I am sure many a woman from my generation (X) played that song after breaking up with their boyfriend.

Kinda the Rocky theme of breakup songs.

Hit me with your pet shark!

that's funny

I hope she’ll still sing her wonderful hit “Hell is for Liberals”. I LOVE that song!

"Shot in the song refers to shot as a colloquialism for attempt..."

In our increasingly dumbed-down society where everything is done for everyone, no thinking or effort required, concepts such as colloquialisms, metaphors and symbolism will go over their heads.
