Talk about the Lita Ford music that you love here!| Women in Rock | | I was just browsing around youtube and it dawned on me that there are now more women in rock than there have been for years. Evanescence, flyleaf, paramore to name some of the mainstream ones. I know during the 80's there were several women but I believe the 90's was a dry decade for women in rock. I know that rock is generally a male dominated genre but I feel that women offer something new and exciting. They have a different voice and way saying and doing things that I think is good for rock as a whole. Do you have the same take on it. Or women in music in general. | |
| | | The Runaways- the soundtrack | | The Runaways- bio pic about the all-girl punkish band (with Joan Jett, lita ford, Cherie Currie) is coming out in less than 2 weeks. I've been really excited about this movie; Dakota Fanning's in it, its about a band, and the artistic style of the movie itself looks incredible, plus Kristen Stewarts in it, too (and yes, I'm a Twilight fan so that's a plus for me).
The soundtrack list was released a couple of weeks ago, and I think it sounds pretty cool:
NICK GILDER - ROXY ROLLER
SUZI QUATRO - THE WILD ONE
MC5 - IT’S A MAN’S MAN’S MAN’S WORLD
DAVID BOWIE- REBEL REBEL
DAKOTA FANNING- CHERRY BOMB
THE RUNAWAYS - HOLLYWOOD
DAKOTA FANNING - CALIFORNIA PARADISE
THE RUNAWAYS - YOU DRIVE ME WILD
DAKOTA FANNING & KRISTEN STEWART - QUEENS OF NOISE
KRISTEN STEWART & DAKOTA FANNING - DEAD END JUSTICE
THE STOOGES - I WANNA BE YOUR DOG
THE RUNAWAYS - I WANNA BE WHERE THE BOYS ARE (LIVE)
SEX PISTOLS - PRETTY VACANT
JOAN JETT- DON’T ABUSE ME
I think it comes out on the 23rd. Some of the songs have been released for listening on Youtube- I listened to "California Paraside" and I am loving it.^o^ | |

| | Favorite Rock Ballad or Duet | | For those of you that like rock music, what is your favorite rock ballad or duet? Mine would have to be Ozzy Osbourne and Lita Ford's "If I close my eyes forever" I love that song.
It is old, made in the eighties, but still good. | |
