80s Glam/Metal Vocal Showdown #26: Jett vs Benatar
« on: November 11, 2013, 10:36:59 AM »
Got a feeling I know where this one is gonna be headed, but for the 80s female voices, they are very much of the same vein.  And speaking of vein's... both were hugely fappadelic.  However, I always considered Jett to be a mini-me version of Benatar.

I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

I never paid a lot of attention to either one, other than the odd radio single here and there.  I prefer Joan Jett, so I'm going with her.  But Benatar is probably the better singer.

Saw both live and Pat Benatar it just that better live.  What pipes she has.

Benatar. Listen to her regularly and she was hotter  :heart



Jett was a 2 hit wonder for me. Two good hits but doesn't stack up against Pat's catalogue.

I shuttled Pat Benatar around Sioux Falls with her family one evening. Rad people.

Don't get me wrong, I have always liked Joan Jett, but putting her up against Pat Benatar? Jett is outclassed by Benatar in nearly every aspect.

Joan Jett.  Snarly-dirtbag-punk street cred.  Booyah.
