Wuthering Heights - Pat Benatar - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Pat Benatar took on a hallowed Kate Bush classic and made it her own, boosting the ethereal pop mega-hit with big, boxy '80s drums and a rocky, euphoric chorus that veers into power ballad territory. Proving she had enough vim in her voice to pull off Kate Bush's gravity-defying vocal acrobatics, she gave 1978's "Wuthering Heights" her all, keeping Kate Bush's theatrical original at the forefront of her mind. The cover was featured on Pat Benatar's 1980 album Crimes of Passion, the second studio album from the 2022 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, which was her first to feature future longstanding drummer Myron Grombacher and endowed her with first Grammy Award (for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance). The album, which took the number two spot on the US Billboard 200, spawned what is widely considered to be Pat Benatar's signature tune, "Hit Me with Your Best Shot," which also took on life as an American baseball and soccer game staple.
