cherry bomb



I am BEYOND excited for this film to come out. Seriously, can the 19th come any faster? 'Cherry Bomb' is one of my favorite songs and surprisingly -unlike most re-makes- the Dakota Fanning/Kristen Stewart re-do is awesome. But I recommend listening to the original first of course...


^Original with the amazing Cherie Currie & Joan Jett filmed in Japan, 1977. It really is crazy how much Kristen Stewart looks like Joan Jett isn't it?



^ Re-make sung by Dakota Fanning & Kristen Stewart. Only complaint I have is that Dakota Fanning's voice is a little too high compared to Cherie Currie's.

For more on the film and the real Runaways, you can visit the film website and watch the trailer HERE; and learn more about The Runaways via their official site, HERE.

Mail & Oscar highlights tomorrow! (Been a looooong day, so no time and energy for a huge post, sorry!) Love you guys, thanks so much to all the new people following!

May your life be filled with great music,

    The friend who went with me to Norway is going to Naples next week. Any recommendation for fun/cool things to do? She's visiting her in-laws in a retirement community... :S

  2. i am also a huge fan of this song and am anxious to see this movie. i think Dakota Fanning will be perfect and although i get a lot of grief for it.. I LOVE Kristen Stewart, I find her awkwardness so charming and i think she is a refreshing change from the other young women hollywood has to offer.

    ps thank you for your comments on my blog i am happy to have found yours.
