This video is of Joan Jett and the Mellencamp band performing the Dave Clark 5 song Bits and Pieces live at the 2008 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony live at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City on March 10, 2008.
Joan Jett will finally be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2015... it's been a long time coming and she finally made it. Congratulations Joan!! You're the Queen of Rock and now a member of the Hall of Fame. Well deserved and we will always love you!
I love this song! I haven't heard it in a really long time. When I got the "I Love Rock n Roll" album, I listened to the whole thing, front to back. every time. What a great album!
Hey Joan, Miss Ya Hun,.. Great Cover, & as Always, U Put the BALLS in this tune that it NEEDED!!!!! LUV the Numbers & You Babe,!!!!! See ya Soon!!!!!!!!
Joan Jett in this video is one of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen! But, the hard thing about being a Joan fan is that you fall in-love with one version of her, and then the next thing you know, she's made herself over to look almost like a completely different human being. I love Joan, but it's nearly impossible for one person to love every look of hers, because they each emphasis such different tastes. This look here though- this may be the best one she's ever had! Oh my gosh, I can't get over how adorable she is- especially with those cute movements and facial expressions! I love her so damn much!!!
@cuteNADA1992 To me, JJ is already in the hall of fame. Eventually, her talent will be acknowledged and she will be inducted into the hall of fame. Rock on JJ.

so the way ,,,i look at it,,,he died listning to you ,,,make me jeolous i have a couch potable and you ...are awsome i can see why he grew up listening to you \
In my opinion, Joan Jett was the best performer of the female rockers. She puts a lot of emotion into all of her songs, and is significantly better performer than Belinda Carlisle, who is very good. She also has a softer side, and can sing hard rock, and softer songs. Her sexuality and personality comes through in her songs, and in my opinion, she is more versatile, and a significantly better singer and performer than was Janice Joplin.
I agree. The stomping of the boots in the original song gave it its Wow factor. She sang this song wonderfully, but without the stomping, it lacked in energy.
@jammergirl88 She's one of the few who have gotten more and more and more and more attractive with age.....I think she must have found the Fountain Of Youth..........Beauty.
Joan as always is rock and roll personified ! Love that woman....Why not her instead of Madonna ???mmmmmm...for more check out the Luther Heggs Blog site
MADONNA AND JOAN JETT WERE UNDER THE SAME ROOF IN ONE HALL THAT NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! man thats fucking fuckedy epic!!!!! and i believe that joan jett alone shouldnt be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame.it shouldbe the whole band Runaways who deserve this honor because this band was the first girl rock group now that legendary.
when this rock queen is going to join the rock hall of fame ?? that is so unfair to wait that long while other people who don't relate to the rock are already in ?!!
Joan Jett has the reputation of tough hard rocker. I find a lot of her vocals to be sensual with a softer underside. Janice Joplin is far superior for vocal power and belting out a song. Also Joan in my opinion is a superb musician. I should have stated that Joan Jett is more sensual than Janice Joplin, not a better singer. But the rock and roll hall of fame is not nearly as good as the pro football and pro baseball hall of fames for recognizing the best.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is political and ridiculous. In my opinon, I would put Joan number one female in a legitimate Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Many singers deserve to be in who aren't, and it really is a pop music hall of fame, not just true rock and roll. Certainly classy singers such as Neil Sedaka, Connie Francis, and Petula Clark were better than many people in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. In addition to singing, Neil was an excellent song writer, and Petula an outstanding composer.
why is madonna in the rock hall of fame and not joan jett or stevie ray vaughn???? Joan Jett pioneered women, hard rock/punk, rock fashion, etc and all is get is to perform. not right. Give the girl her props.
