  • I'm just 16 years old, and i really really love her, she's so freaking amazing! sometimes I just hate my generation for what they did with music :(

  • awesome!

  • i think i was 5 or 6 when lesley gore did this. it may have been the biggest defining moment in my life without knowing it. i still live true to these words. and i hadn't heard them in years. so, don't put me on display . . .

  • i love this song.... it tells a woman or better yet let her know that she has rights

  • why aren't there many girls like her these days?

    now we mostly have "grown ups" or alternative kids >.>

  • Klaus' version was more heartfelt, I think.

  • my auntie is a punk and looks like joan jett lol

  • @coldbluerain It's on Bad Reputation. Track 4.

  • Never heard this version. Awesome!

  • With THIS body she should wear bigger clothes... .

  • @Fruchtzwerg3006 she should wear whatever makes her feel good.

  • As bad a chick as Joan Jett is, this shows a softer sad to miss cherry bomb.

  • Love It. Never was a fan when they were popular, too young I guess, but I missed some awesome music. I'm catching up now though.

  • Joan was the Pink of our day x

  • Love Joan, but Dusty Springfield PWNS this

  • i never know Joan Jett was ripped.

  • Hey, If thats the wrong picture of Joan Jett can you replace it and repost the video. Thanks.

  • Great video post. Sounds like Joan Jett should be giving singing lessons to Lesley Gore.

  • “Eye” am the Thorn in Joan Jett’s Spirituality, and Joan Jett is the Helen of My TROY! 5 FIVE 5 BY GOD, JOAN JETT, YOU ARE THE LUCKIEST QUEEN TO HAVE EVER WALKED THE FACE! BY GOD! BY GOD! BY GOD! 5 SAY BY GOD!

  • Joan's a bad ass!

  • I don't really think one gender rocks harder than the other. But Joan Jett is the motherfucking bomb.

  • So what she's trying to say is - you're not the boss of me

  • @pencon61 That works till you say I DO, then they do think they own you and it's a bitch when we own them right back lol

  • @Tonithenightowl which is why i'm single!

  • @tlynch1218 In the words of a wise woman, married ain't perfect and neither is being single. I've been married 37 yrs. and it's been a good thing. In the end all couples end up being single again. Most of us just don't want a lifetime of it. I respect anyone's decision to remain single, you don't have to marry someone to be with someone. It's not necessary anymore as long as both agree. I hope it doesn't mean you don't want someone in your life at all. :o)

  • @Tonithenightowl thanks.

  • @tlynch1218 Welcomed. You know old ladies, we aren't happy unless we're giving advice whether asked for or not lol

  • @pencon61 yes.

    

  • just one word ...boner

  • @theRavenTrue omg right sooooo sexy

    

  • @theRavenTrue right on!

  • @theRavenTrue true that. i'm a testament that sex drugs and rock and roll rule!!!!

  • Joan is a very high spirit that encernated to awaken. And she did.

  • I love how she remade this song without altering it too much

  • Someday I hope people will realize the contribution she has made for women in rock and roll. Simply the greatest there is. Her remakes of old songs are such a treat!

  • I don't own too nobody!!!!!!!

  • She doesn't look like she's 52 years old

I would love to meet her one day or at least be able to get to talk via internet somehow I would also love to go to her concert one of these days too you rock Joan. I love your music. Tou keep it real and tell people how it is

  • @FRISKYKITTEN100 Hi!

  • @FRISKYKITTEN100 Hi!

  • Joan Jett is the f-ing greatest!!!

  • Im 65 an i like this song she sing it great !!!

  • pleaaaaase! I ca't believe this . we are in 2011. we know girls can do the same things that boys do. we are able, so shut up . and of course Joan doesn't care about what people think about here, me neither! why should I care? if you don't like me , ok screw you I don't give a damn about my reputation!

    and remember that girls can do whatever the fuck we want

  • @haushinkagreen done, dude. we have the same views. but girls have perks , we can do everything boys can do but we can do it in high heels ;)

  • @EilidhlovesA7X ha ha true ;D

  • @DaleSrRocked umm she isnt influencing anyone to do anything, and yeah compared to all the bubble gum pop airheads of today she rocks, and shes a good role model actually for young girls because shes an example that you can do whatever you want sometimes even better than guys, so shutup

  • i love that version too.

  • this is the best version...

  • he way she says boys when shes a lesbain (L)

    still love her XD

  • pass'e

  • lmao... that random fat guy makes this video priceless. <3

  • 0:53 it's Merrill Beth Nisker what a mistake

    es la chica de Peaches no es joan jett kjkjkj ^^

  • um wow was not expecting her in the bikini and all sweaty 

  • i want to own this song!!

  • Joan Jett does this very well. She can sing the oldies too obviously. Excellent!

  • SORRY, BUT THIS IS NOT JOAN. IT STILL KEEPS FLASHING THROUGHOUT THE VIDEO. ARE WE TO PRETEND WE DONT NOTICE

  • @angelicinspiration1 .... Hahaha. Do you mean the one with the one about :26 seconds ??? Does my head in that one.

  • sorry avril but joan is better !

  • @Scilly123ify As an Jett and Avril fan i think even Avril knows that :P

  • @Scilly123ify Does it not mean what you mean by "better"?

    Lesley was the original and better because it was in an era when the words meant more ie sexual equality, Dusty is a better singer, Joan (and I am a life long fan) is great but on this one just seems to be going thru the motions.

  • @Scilly123ify Great komment! Joan is one of the best!

  • Nope...

  • Evey time that picture came up that wasn't Joan made me laugh

    LOLOLOL

  • Fantastic artist...Great song... I dedicate this song "You Don't Own Me" to WOMYN the world over....

  • This is for all women who have adapted themselves to or stifled their personalities for another person, like the "good girls" we were taught to be in my generation. Our mothers taught us to do it, magazine articles told us exactly how to do it, schools "educated" us to do it. Now we're setting ourselves free from all of that. This was the only Leslie Gore song I liked back then...a real departure for her, but Joan makes it so much better! Love you, Joan. You showed 'em! You're the best!

  • thumbs up for Joan Jett

  • HELL YEAH MOTHER FUCKER U DON'T OWN ME!!!!!!!!!!!! :DDDDDD

  • i fucking hate lesbians such as yourself.. its a chemical inbalance in your brain

  • wow ....this is awesome. I like the edginess of this version. But still love Lesley Gore. This apeals to the 80's punk/goth in me

  • Who is the girl who isnt Joan Jett?

  • This song reminds me of the First Wives Club lol :). Love Joan Jett!

  • so freaking hot..........

  • i love her

  • It's always us hot guys that want these women. Hey, what can one do?

  • That random picture of Peaches freaks me out.

  • Bitch is looking like Danny Trejo.

  • JOE SEXTON

  • just saw her live, she's great!

  • Ms. Gore announced in 2005 that she was lesbian ...imagine what she was thinking when she was singing "you don't own me."

  • @TessaRay Lesley Gore is a really a Great Woman!!

  • Leslie Gore was deep in the closet when she sang this in 1964, back then it was mandatory for us girls to wear skirts to school and marriage & babies was the only option. Seeing proud, strong, free2be LGBT Joan perform this was worth living for--onward sisters and brothers!

  • @TessaRay Leslie Gore is lesbian?

  • @soverysneaky Yes she is :) I saw her perform a few years ago in Philly and after the show said "thank you for coming out" she said, "oh it was nothing, I only came from NYC (2 hours away)" totally missing my point. Adorable! Who cares who she loves, she's an American legend!

  • what album is the song 4rm?

  • The girl with the curly hair isnt Joan.

  • talent.

  • W8 wouldn't all str8 women and lesbians be all women save for bisexuals?

    Wouldn't 'all women' be really accurate and cover everyone? Better yet 'all women and girls' since she co-kicked down a door and it's the girls of now who can step through that doorway?

  • one of my faves.

  • She looks great, and she wears her tattoos really well.

  • Fuck she is beautiful! 

  • Her version is easily 10x better than the original tbh.

  • @MindbendaAMV i like em both.. but Joan has effortless talent..

  • The problem here is that we have muzzi scum adding input to our way of life.. dictatorship is a total asshole..

  • Am I the only guy who likes this song....????

  • @Dictatorship23 i think so :) haha

  • @Dictatorship23 Nope. I'm a dude and I like it too. :)

  • @Dictatorship23 i like this song very much too

    this music is fucking good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

  • @Dictatorship23

    nope

  • @Dictatorship23 no! 

  • I think Lesley has the better rendition of this song..I am all for women etc. don't care about.............

    movements or politics... just think the LG did it the best. It is like listening to a Righteous Brothers song done by Pee Wee Herman... By the way we have been married for 37 years and I have never held my wife back and she has never done the same for me. We are a team..there is no I in team. WE do everything together... Keep on listening to great music...

  • dude, wtf!!! I'm listening to some kickass music when the bottom link thingy comes up with selene gomez!!!!!!!

    nah, nah, nah.......... not even worth the comparison. \m/

  • Come on ladies (gentlemen) out there. This song is all about One thing and When another Thinks they can OWN anyone then Trouble is about to begin. I have been with My Wife 23 Years This Month 4 Kids Too and I Give what is hers and Vice Verse the Biggest thing anyone can give is RESPECT & THEIR INDIVIDUALITY!!

    PS I was on the Set Of Joan Jet and Michael J. Fox doing Light of Day! FREEDOM & EQUALITY is for all.....

  • what a woman.....what a power.....there is nothing more to say

  • Who is the artice?? Leslie or Joan

  • @cg6148 Leslie :)

  • @cg6148 That's Joan Jett. Leslie Gore as a very different voice. Also, the music's been updated with a sax. It's got a slightly different rock beat to it. The original is more laid back, even in the more powerful parts.

  • My song to my X husband. LOL Of course the line "don't tell me I can't go with other boys" should be "Don't tell me I can't go with other GIRLS" Divorced after 18 yrs of living a lie. Been with my soulmate (G/F) 8 years now n happier than I ever was with a man! U ROCK JOANIE!!! (((HUGS)))

  • @DaleSrRocked: my philosophy to a woman as a man has always been to have as much freedom as possible. i never understood why men are so controlling. I have lost many friendships because of that.

  • @badjman84 Right on! Being committed is one thing acting like a parent to your spouse is wrong. There's this couple at work and he talks to his future wife like she's 5. Has her on pins and nettles. I told him off.

  • @onlockinggeisha It's time for your female friend at work to get a backbone. I'm not saying it's her fault at all, but SHE should be the one to tell him off and get rid of him. It pains me to see younger women taking this from people (and I don't mean just men, but overwhelmingly men), especially people who should love them, in this day and age. No one was conditioned more extremely than I was to be inferior, but I broke out of it. She can, too. Was the feminist movement all for nothing?

  • @ladymesc1 I never said she just stood their and took it, but I don't think she said anything until after I did. I don't think it's her place to stand completely alone, but I don't really know whats between them. I don't like seeing that he may be abusive but they are really serous about being together forever. I said something because I've seen other woman in my life get their lives ruined by abusive or manipulating men. However, what she decides is her business. She's not a weak personality.

  • @onlockinggeisha Of course you don't like seeing anyone abused. I've seen it, too, and been through terrible abuse myself as a young girl by the men in my family. My point was that I've seen so many adult women instantly accept the role of child in a relationship and allow the men in their lives to control them. If she wants to be with someone who "has her on pins and needles," well, that happens if women accept it. You can't always be there, though of course, you want to help her. So would I.

  • @ladymesc1 Women shouldn't accept that but I think the abuse is so constant in a female's life it's normal to be treated like that. I knew a teen living with her parents she had really good family and friends who would help her with her baby and protect her. She had a restraining order against him. She wasn't trapped and had a choice. She chose him over everyone even her baby because he was abusive to it to. What makes woman accept such a life?Maybe s lot of woman may think they have no choice.

  • @onlockinggeisha That's it exactly: They think it's normal. My mother chose my father and brother over me, even though she knew they were abusing me every day. I haven't spoken to any of them in years and don't intend to. I had to stand up for myself all alone, but I did it. I don't let anyone into my life who disrespects me in any way. Some women do rebel and stop the cycle, and that's why I hate that so many women accept it and put their helpless children they should be protecting in danger.

  • @ladymesc1 People don't talk about it, but it's common. My mother chose a man over her kids and always seemed to have a hate for me that she didn't my brother. It must be woman's internalized woman hate. In the form of the perception that woman are only worth something in relation to men and are weak and inferior. The logical outcome for a hopelessly weak human is to rally on and align with the strong for survival. Other woman are competition and a reminder of their own weakness.

  • @onlockinggeisha I've always felt that way, too. Many people who have an inferior status can't treat others of their kind with respect. If everyone loved and respected herself/himself, the world would be a much better place. Of all the prejudices in this world, sexism is the most insidious because it's in our own homes and comes from our own parents and those who should love us. I'm sorry you felt that hatred from your mother. I know what a family's hate can do. But let's rock on! Music is life!

  • @ladymesc1 I'm sorry you went through that. I'm glad that you have such courage!!!!

  • @jadeinmars Music helped give me courage. It was always there for me. If it weren't for music, I wouldn't be here. Even though I'm a visual artist, I could never get along without music.

  • @ladymesc1

    Your mom sounds narcissistic. 1% of the population suffer from NPD. Inverted narcissists support extraverted narcissist spouses, and child abuse is extremely common in these families. Usually the normal sibling(s) that did not inherit the NPD through genetics is perceived as weak by the rest of the family and abused for having normal feelings such as love or empathy. Not speaking to an abusive family is healthy, and so is forgiving sick parents (from afar, of course)

  • @riverlioness She was selfish, weak, and had very low self-esteem, for herself and for me. Ignored problems and blamed me for confronting them and leaving home. Made lame excuses for herself. How did she "sleep" through 3,000 rapes? I have no inclination to forgive anyone; too busy living my life, working on my art, and don't want to waste even that much energy on them. She didn't even want me to get help for the abuse or tell anyone about it because she didn't want it to reflect badly on HER.

  • @DaleSrRocked Glad you found happiness, but the lyrics of THIS song are "don't tell me I can't go with other boys." The song as written has nothing to do with lesbian relationships. As a songwriter myself, you always hope people will find their own inner meaning to lyrics (which you seem to have done) -- but, not by suggesting the lyrics should be changed to better accomodate one's interpretation. I hope that in another 10 years you still have the same happiness as you have today. Peace.

  • @iriewaregl Obviously I know what the lyrics are and never said it would be better to change them. I've been a professional songwriter based in Nashville TN over 20 years with over 500 songs out there. Nobody needs to tell me about lyrics. I was simply making a statement. Why do you ppl have to pick apart every damn sentence like you are God trolling you tube?

  • @DaleSrRocked do you think all men are like that.

  • @woodsman513 No,I don't think ALL men are like that! But I've only met about 2 out of 35 that were even partially ok with me having male friends. My X husband literally wrote out a CAN NOT DO list for me. No male friends. No concerts w/o him. No nothing normal ppl enjoy. That was pure BS. So I'll never get roped into another dictative relationship again. Not worth it.

  • @DaleSrRocked your x husband sounds like a piece of shit. if I ever get married I would never treat my wife like crap or be mean to her or be a dictator to her. but good for you for moving on and stuff

  • @woodsman513 Glad to hear there are decent guys out there. GL & Take care!

  • @DaleSrRocked thanks, you too

  • @DaleSrRocked  LOL ha ha ha I Loved your post and cracked up.... good for you !!

  • @DaleSrRocked LOL don't tell me I can't go with other girls.... you are a riott!! good for you

  • @DaleSrRocked No offence meant, just curious...didn't you know you liked girls better before you married a guy? A friend of mine had this happen to him. It was devastating to him...and their children.

  • @DaleSrRocked fuck you lesbian

  • @DaleSrRocked Welcome back! :)
