I love "Heartbreaker." "Heartbreaker" stands up for me…

“I love "Heartbreaker." "Heartbreaker" stands up for me still. It still works to me. The sentiment is still timely and it just works. But I don't want to do that again. I'm not interested in re-creating that. That was great and I'll just leave it there.” quote by Pat Benatar
