Joan Jett

ItemImage

By playing pure and simple rock & roll without making an explicit issue of her gender, Joan Jett became a figurehead for several generations of female rockers. Jett's brand of rock & roll is loud and stripped-down, yet with overpowering hooks — a combination of the Stones' tough, sinewy image and beat, AC/DC chords, and glam rock hooks.

to all those here who say that Joan Jett is a one-hit wonder, WRONG! First, one-hit wonders are artists that, not only have just one hit, But, After that hit, are GONE and no longer heard from. they're Out of the music industry. Joan Jett has been working her ass off touring and playing REAL rock n' roll since she was a teenager in The Runaways. her Other hits include 'I Hate Myself For Loving You, Roadrunner, Crimson & Clover, Do Ya Wanna Touch, and Light Of Day. yes, some are covers, But, still hits And , like i said, she Constantly continues to work her ass off and tour Year after Year after Year....!! That is NOT a one-hit wonder. to those who just simply thinks that she sucks, well, you're entitled to your opinion, But, that's Not what decides who gets into the Hall Of Fame. it's Accomplishments and longevity in the music business. this isn't grade school, kiddies. "aw, they suck!" "aww you suck!" shut up already! grow up and be adult and realize that even music artists you Don't like Deserve respect and to be in the Hall Of Fame. i personally don't like bands like Rush and Black Sabbath, BUT, i RESPECT them, what they've done in their careers and DO believe that belong in the Hall Of Fame. so grow up and be mature about it. Joan Jett rocks and Totally deserves to be in!
