  1. I think that women have incredible talent when it comes to music. Especially in composition and lyrics. They have a very exalted taste when it comes to music writing, and men often tend to incline towards feminine tendencies when writing lyrics. It is true. Haha. If you wanna listen to some more girl power rock, listen to the band 'Heart'.

  2. Heart is group made in the mid 70s, But it reach height on the 80s. Actually was the type of music my mom used to hear at my age!. Personally I do like it, i found the lyrics very passionate and consistent with your comment!
    .How about Pat Benatar, I encourage to check her out!. She is also ONE of the Greatest ROCK chicks during the same time line!. One of my favorites songs Hit me with your Best shot, but apparentelly "love is a Battlefield" hit the the top list on the Billboard, too!.

  3. I'm not a rock n' roll girl, but I have to admit that this song is really good. A lot of people say that this type of music is not for girls, but what Lars said proves them wrong. I think that there are a lot of talented girls out there waiting to be heard

  4. I feel that girls are very talented in any genre of music. I think girls in rock n' roll is almost my kind of music along with pop. Most music I absolutely love are sung by girl singers. Many girls have creative kinds of voices when it comes to music.

  10. Joan Jett is an incredible singer, and has a lot of musical talent. I love most of her songs. From all of the girls who sing rock and roll, I think that she is the best, because of many reasons. First, she has a really deep voice, and you can sense something like a groal when she sings, which is something that most girls that sing rock lack. Also, she has an incredible control of her voice. You can notice this when she screams. Her voice doesn't shake.

  11. I do believe that girls can rock n' roll and they rock at it as well. Like Lars I also believe that women are really good at composing lyrics and also at singing them.
