His therapy was punching a pillow. Bioenergetics involves improving well-being while releasing blocked energy.
This song was Benatar’s first top 10 hit in the United States. She was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in November of 2022. She no longer includes this song in her concerts as a protest to mass shootings.
