My fave is Light of Day.  I also liked the album track This Means War which appears on both the album Good Music and the soundtrack Light of Day :)

For Joan on her own, of course I'd go with "I Love Rock 'n' Roll."  For Joan Jett with The Runaways, I'd go with "Cherry Bomb."

Until quite recently I would've said that "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" was my favorite Joan Jett song, but only because I had forgotten all about "I Hate Myself for Loving You" until I heard it on a web radio (Or whatever it's called) and last week I got my hands on the "Up Your Alley" album, had to exchange it for "Master of Puppets" and "Kill 'Em All" but it was worth it.

Do You Wanna Touch Me

Though it would have been my first choice back in the day, I Love Rock 'N' Roll is overplayed in classic rock stations in my area, unfortunately.  :-\\

I Hate Myself For Loving You and Little Liar get honorable mentions.

My very favorite is "Victim of Circumstance".  She also does a really cool version of the theme to the Mary Tyler Moore Show (with Kathleen Hannah of Le Tigre , I believe).

I like all of Joan's stuff I've heard.

I was particularly impressed by hr cover of "Eye To Eye".
I also like the piece she did in honor of Mia Zapata, of "The Gits".

However, My fave will probably be "Do Ya Wanna Touch Me? (O, Yeah!)"

Joan is quite well-preserved.

And her voice hasn't really lost its sting, over the yrs.
She still sounds in top form!

I voted for "I Hate Myself for Loving You" but I also love "Bad Reputation."  We saw her in concert last summer and she was AWESOME!!!

I love the fact that when the murder of Mia Zapata took place, she was so active in funding and keeping the case alive, until the murderer was finally nailed.

She was in an episode of "Walker, Texas Ranger" back in the 90's, played the part of an ice-cold killer, played it rather well...

Tough choice but I'd actually choose "Had Enough" from the 1983 album, Album.  A great, angry F-U song.

I :HEART: JOAN JETT !!!!!!!

Joan is a fellow Philly suburber who had a profound effect on me
growing up. the most Awes0mest FeMalian in the History of HISTORY !! :D
Ive followed her career from the Runaways onward.
Still a fabulous person who has stayed true to her roots.
A Joan Jett concert will leave you drained just watching.....
Its hard to pick just one of Joans tunes but just so I can profess
my undying luv and respect for her in this forum I chose
The French Song. ;)
