Probably one of the more underappreciated female rockers from the '80s...

...at the '80s on 8, Sirius Ch. 8: "I think of you every night and day, you took my heart, and you took my pride awayyyyyaaayaayayayayyy, I hate myself for lovin' you, can't break free from the things that you do..."
Or maybe she isn't. Maybe my perception's just a bit skewed because of that now-legendary letter initially attributed to Joan Jett.

Britney's Rock credentials? Well, she butchers the song "I Love Rock'n'Roll" on her latest record, and when asked about it the genius replies "Well, I've always loved Pat Benatar."

Whatever the case, I've always liked Joan Jett. Definitely more than Pat Benatar, though Benatar was pretty good herself.
