In The Name Of LOVE Week!

“We Live For Love” was the fifth single taken from the debut album “In The Heat Of The Night” by Pat Benatar, the single was released on Released: February 25, 1980.

We Live for Love”, which became Benatar’s first top-10 entry in any country when it rose to No. 8 in Canada, while also reaching the top 30 in the US, New Zealand, and Australia, her first sizable hit in the latter. In France, “We Live for Love” reached the top 40.

This 12″ contains the “new wave” mix which appeared on the original 1st pressing 1979 vinyl, cassette, and 8-track releases of the LP “In The Heat Of The Night” this version was later replaced on subsequent pressings with a remixed more rock version. Making the “new wave” mix pretty rare. As far as I know, it has never appeared on CD.
