This video says it all. Drugged-out, burned-out ashtray, comes begging the record companies - they tell her to stick it. Through determination and sheer force of will, she forms her own label and kicks ass. I love it. On a different level, some clown once told the Beatles to stick it. I think he ended up emptying wastebaskets.
Was asked by the Joan herself to go on tour with the band because of a security gig I had back in "79. Couldn't go because I was getting married that summer. Bad choice. The marriage didn't last, The tour would have lasted a lifetime in my soul.
IVE BEEN LISTENING TO JOAN JETT SINCE I WAS IN HIGHSCHOOL "87.. SO I KNO A LIL ABOUT THIS LADY... SHES FREAKING AWESOME, ALWAYS WILL BE. SHES HER OWN PERSON DOES WHAT SHE WANTS CANT BE LABELED. SHES ROCK, PUNK, POP, SHE DOES IT ALL ...GREAT!!
i feel like alot of younger girls only know of joan jett because of that runaway movie.-_-
like im only 16 ( in like 7 months) && i watched the movie too but i loved her before the movie. ha like i think alot of girls went to go see it because of kristen stewert being in it. i wanted to see it cause joan jetts one of my idols. along with the egals, elton john, GUNS N ROSES<3 , areosmith, && queen. Haha. i grew up with them all thanks to my dad. i was singing debbie harry at age 5.
@lilblondegirll96 You so hipster. So what if they like her because of the movie? It's great that movies like that inspire people to listen to the actual, awesome music :)
that was kinda rude... im not even close to hipster...well i wouldnt kno cause i actually have no clue what a "hipster" is but whatever. im not saying anything is wrong with like her cause the movie, ya it was a good movie. i was actually about to watch it on comcast tonight,but im just saying it would be alot better if people actually seen it for joan not kristen.
Thanks for uploading this sexy song. Was fortunate enough to have met Joan & The Blackhearts back in Okinawa ( All THANKS to the USO ). What made it even more special was the autographs with the bandmates and the Pièce De Résistance ... asked Ms. Joan for her to sign my left arm and she agreed to it without hesistation. So now it's permanently INKED since 2003. :D
@flxdcatbruce Yeah !!! My left arm will be left alone and true fans can instantly spot her signature from anywhere. Many of those said fans have wanted to rip my arm off as well (DEAD SERIOUS) so I just laugh it off. I'm inked up but many have said to leave that arm alone as a "temple" because of the autograph. SO that's how it'll be to my last breath. :D
@RockMosherParaWhore hehe.. i'm only 13 too...;D and is saw Joan last year in a Green Day gig in munich..;D and she was FUCKING AWESOME!!! but the crowd was so fucking lame...!! she is my idol, inspiration, & drug for all the fucking time !! i love she..!! ♥
@GreenDayandJoanJett Judging by your youtube name, that mustve been the most badass concert ever!!. haha. Green Day was my first concert! good times, good times.... Its really good to hear of kids these days still listenting to decent music rather than that shitty music thats out there these days though. lol
@AdamFinkler - Yes, but you don't get it. This is a big FUCK YOU to EVERYONE that wouldn't give Joan Jett a chance specially record company's that refuse to sign Joan Jett & The Blackhearts and they CENSORED it for TV in the 80's and that's the BEST part when Joan Jett flips them off and says ......... '' FUCK YOU '' !!!! ;)
