pat benatar!

does anyone know why Pat Benatar decided to cover "Wuthering Heights"?  i 
was thinking about it the other day, and it seemed kinda odd.  usually, a 
song is covered only if it's either old or as a tribute - but "Wuthering 
Heights" was only 2 years old when Benatar covered it on her 1980 album 
*Crimes of Passion*.

and "Wuthering Heights" wasn't even that big in the US!

is it because Benatar is a fan of Kate's?  she does say the line "oooh, i 
can feel the kick inside" in her song "All Fired Up" - a possible 
reference?  

and speaking of Pat, were her last two albums any good (Gravity's 
Rainbow, and i think the other one's called True Love or something like 
that)?  i have *In the Heat of the Night* to *Wide Awake in Dreamland*, 
which were good, but i've heard negative things about her last two.

bye for now,
