Annabella Lwin was 15 years old in that video. Also, that song is a cover. Here's the original by The Strangeloves.

Pat Benatar - Love is a Battlefield

The thing that always struck me about this video is when Pat and the dance troupe start shaking their boobs at him the bad guy retreats in fear. Maybe I'm an asshole but ladies when you shake you boobs at me I move forward.

There was a time we would gather around the TV waiting for MTV to premiere a new video. Times have changed. Gotta go. I need to check my email on AOL. Wait in 1981 there was no email.

Journey's first live broadcast. Was shown on MTV 1981.

Sorry I couldn't find the whole concert but here are the vids that came from it. I remember watching this on MTV when it first aired. I was 11 or 12. I loved Journey and had a huge crush on Steve Perry.
