Album Review

In interviews, Pat Benatar made it clear that she had no desire to be stereotyped as a hard rocker — often adding that she preferred new wave's melodic keyboards over hard rock and metal's crunching guitars. Indeed, Get Nervous was the most melodic album she'd done since In the Heat of the Night. This isn't to say that Get Nervous was a return to new wave-ish leanings; in fact, songs like "Anxiety (Get Nervous)," "The Victim," and "Silent Partners" are intense, forceful jewels that rock aggressively. But at the same time, the album's pop elements and strong emphasis on melody leave no doubt that the last thing on Benatar's mind was recording another Crimes of Passion.

Customer Reviews

A Great Classic Album

While I always enjoyed Pat Benatar's music on AOR stations in the late '70s-early '80s, it wasn't until recently I really listened. My wife has Benatar's first four albums and recently I put them on my turntable. I'm a classic rocker and this blew me away. The album review, above, is accurate - some new wave sounds with some driving rock. There's not a song on this I don't like. Go ahead, pick it up!

First to review!

I was born ten years after this album was released but you don't have to live a certain generation in order to love the music. In my generation, music is nowhere as good as this! This woman has the talent, the voice, and she totally rocks! What else do you need?? Get Nervous is my favorite Pat Benatar album.

Great classic album showcasing all that is Benatar!

I remember March 1983; Pat Benatar's "Get Nervous" Tour was my first concert. What a great memory. I was shocked at first when this LP came out because of the "new wave" sounds on the LP; being used to Pat Benatar's hard rock edge; but got over it quickly. This album is Genius and the reviewer is correct; I indeed still got my rock fix. The Victim rocks out from begining to end; I Want Out and Fight It Out are also amazing. Pat Benatar's vocal range is amazing on this LP. 31 years later and I'm still rocking to Pat Benatar. Buy it!!! It's an amazing collection that is great to jam out to even now~~

Born Patricia Andrzejewski on January 10, 1953, in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, the singer was raised in the nearby town of Lindenhurst on Long Island, NY.
