Crimes of Passion is the second studio album by American rock singer Pat Benatar, released on August 5, 1980, by Chrysalis Records.
The album is the first to feature Myron Grombacher on drums, beginning a long tenure in Benatar's band that would last into the late 1990s.
The album debuted on the US Billboard 200 album chart the week ending August 23 and held at No. 2 for five weeks in the US in January 1981, behind John Lennon and Yoko Ono's Double Fantasy.
Crimes of Passion contains the hits "Hit Me with Your Best Shot", which became her first Top 10 hit in the US, and is considered to be her best-known song, and "Treat Me Right", a Top 20 hit in the US.
Both songs charted similarly in Canada but were even bigger hits on the US Tunecaster Rock Tracks chart peaking at number 1 and 2 on that chart. Neither song was very successful in other countries, aside from "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" reaching the Top 40 in Australia.
The first single released from the album was "You Better Run", the music video for which was the second music video ever aired on MTV in 1981.
It only peaked at number 42 in the US, and New Zealand, and did not chart in Canada, although it rose to number 33 in Australia.
The song "Hell Is for Children", which was not released as an A-side single, was also a hit on album-rock stations ascending to number 7 on the Tunecaster Rock Tracks Chart.
Crimes of Passion also contained a cover of Kate Bush's international hit, "Wuthering Heights".
Crimes of Passion is Benatar's biggest selling album, having been certified 4× Platinum (for shipments of over four million copies) in the United States and 5× Platinum (for shipments of 500,000 copies) in Canada. It placed at number 5 on Billboard magazine's 1981 year-end album chart.
It peaked at number 2 in both Canada and France, and rose to number 6 in New Zealand.
It was also Benatar's biggest hit to that point in Australia (number 16) and her first album to chart in Sweden (number 27).

Patricia Mae Andrzejewski (born January 10, 1953), known professionally as Pat Benatar, is an American rock singer-songwriter and four-time Grammy Award winner.
In the United States, she has had two multi-Platinum albums, five Platinum albums, and 15 Billboard Top 40 singles, while in Canada she had eight straight Platinum albums.
Benatar's 1979 debut album, In the Heat of the Night, was her breakthrough in North America, especially in Canada where it reached number 3 on the album chart.
Two singles from it were hits: "Heartbreaker" and "We Live for Love", the latter written by her lead guitarist and future husband, Neil Giraldo. Benatar's second album, 1981's Crimes of Passion, was her most successful work, peaking at number 2 in North America and France, being certified 4x and 5x Platinum in the US and Canada, respectively.
Its single "Hit Me with Your Best Shot" reached the Top 10 in the US and Canada and is considered to be her best-known song.
Benatar's third album, Precious Time (1981) was another success, topping the US Album Chart and becoming her first Top 10 album in Australia.
Its single "Fire and Ice" charted highly in the US and Canada. Her next release, Get Nervous (1982), sold less well than her previous two albums, but did include the North American hit "Shadows of the Night".
Benatar's sound began to move towards more atmospheric pop in 1983.
The single "Love Is a Battlefield" (1983) was her biggest hit in most countries, including reaching number 1 in the Netherlands, Australia and on the US Rock Tracks chart, and number 5 on the US Hot 100.
The live album it came from, Live from Earth, was her biggest seller in Australia, Germany and the Netherlands.
In 1984, Benatar released Tropico and its lead single "We Belong", which reached the Top 10 in several countries, including number 5 on the US Hot 100.
Benatar’s 1985 album, Seven the Hard Way, sold less well but it yielded two singles harking back to the rock vein: "Invincible", a Top 10 hit in North America, and "Sex as a Weapon".
Her follow-up, Wide Awake in Dreamland (1988), marked a resurgence in sales in Canada and Australia, and was her biggest hit in the UK.
Its rocker, "All Fired Up", was a significant hit in Canada, Australia and the US.
Benatar released four additional albums between 1991 and 2003 and was nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2020.
