grew up above my papa's bar from early 70's until he died at age of 95 in 1998 got listen to every great jukebox hit from conway twitty on up.... joan jett got played a lot..... My crib literally way on top of a bar table in shenandoah pa... this nostalgic music still hits me hard
Absolutely loved this fucking song since I was 16!!! If you truly love it,you never lose it. And if you don't, you're just a power and a fake... Long live rock!!!
I remember walking around the schoolyard in Grade 2 with my little radio crankin' I Love Rock n' Roll. Even at that young age, I knew Joan Jett was badass!!
I will always be a 1980s boy I was little but I remember my uncle Larry used to live in Phoenix Arizona he took me to many concerts including this one I will always call the 1980s a rock and roll generation that may never come again rock out I did with my massive boom box that drove my late grandparents that raised me crazy ahh good memories lmao
Aunque no sea la versión original es la mejor sin lugar a dudas, la gran Joan Jett quien siendo mujer vio el potencial que tenía el tema y le puso un Heavy tremendo y la salvo del olvido haciéndola famosa en el mundo entero y nos dejó esta joya clásica del Rock. Grande joan jett y que Viva el Rock n Roll por siempre. Amén
Another one of those monster songs that came out in the 80's. There are a lot of great songs, but songs like this and Centerfold were monster hits when they came out.
If you people get a chance watch Joan Jett "Bad Reputation" now on Hulu. Lots of Rock history,lots about Joan Jett as a person (she is a very warm and carrying) great Rocumentary. First time I heard about the murder of Mia Zapata, heartbreaking and tragic story,she should be remembered.
@Benno Witter two days ago I was watching a 1982 documentary about the Long Island New York Radio Station WLRN 92.7 it was Amercas # 1 Radio Station. They did not give credit where credit is due when they spoke about Joan Jett and when Joan Jett appeared and spoke about this song and her album at that time. Hat's off to you I am very impressed with what you provided you are a class act, I cant thank you enough.This is truly apart of Rock N Roll History.
@@ninsnumber1fan Joan was more associated with the punk scene. Dont get me wrong, Joan is freaking awesome too, I cant help but sing along to most of her songs, but not quite the same genre. Joan is the Punk goddess!
Love this song! So much nostalgia from when I was younger! Joan Jett is hot!😗😗💕💕 Hard rock has taken a backward step after this masterpiece. The National Anthem of Cougars I Love Rock n Roll!!
Mandela effect alert. It used to be 'I saw him standing there by the record machine' now in this altered reality it says 'I saw him DANCING there by the record machine'.
I was raised in Minnesota in the 80's being a child of private schools and so forth - the nuns as they were would take us to a roller rink on a field trip JUST when this song came out hitting the charts enjoyed and played by the heathen in secret gatherings so forbidden. Imagine if you will, the first song on that rink blaring out over hi-fi stereo was the awesome guitar intro to this song as we were skating with aggressive paces with hands lifted up in praise. The children or so they called us. To those still reading the nuns were like a murder of crows I declare and the DJ was the feed to UTTERLY stop the song to play Amy Grant. We loved it nonetheless while it lasted unto this day.
@@LibraGamesUnlimited Hi Chris, you are exactly correct in your observation. The above was one of the great stories of my life. I thank you for seeing that. Enjoy the music.
