DEF: Pat Benatar “Le Bel Age (The Best Years)”
New York City-born singer Pat Benatar has hit the Top 40 with fifteen of the seventeen songs she has placed on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart. The second of the two appearances not to reach the Top 40 occurred with Benatar’s second-to-last single to chart. On this date in 1986, that song — “Le Bel Age (The Best Years)” — climbed to a peak position of number 54. Today, “Le Bel Age (The Best Years)” by Pat Benatar is the Daily Eighties Flashback.
Freakin beautiful song that came out when MTV was deliberately killing rock music.
Beautiful song that came out when rock and roll wasn’t being promoted by MTV anymore.
