Songoftheday 1/26/14 - Just when we think we conquered it it seems we lose the fight again...

Pat Benatar - "The Ooh Ooh Song"
from the album Tropico (1984)
Billboard Hot 100 peak: #36 (two weeks)
Weeks in the Top-40: 3

Today's Song of the Day is by 80s rocker supreme Pat Benatar, who lightened up a bit in 1984 with her album Tropico, scoring her biggest pop hit with "We Belong". She followed it up with "The Ooh Ooh Song", a fun little no-brainer written with hubby Neil Geraldo that has a nice a-cappella break and harmonica riff...

"The Ooh Ooh Song" became Pat's second top-40 hit from Tropico in February of 1985, while ascending to #22 on Billboard's rock radio chart. I think the chorus drew radio away from the quite cool arrangement of this bopper, which is a shame.

Up tomorrow: A former "berry" needs to know first-hand.
