      1) Her 'singing' voice sounds like shit
      2) The song is too fast for my liking

      Not a fan!!!! Triple Image & Jamie Lynn Spears's version is 100x better. Jamie Lynn COMPLETELY outsings Miley in that verse too.

      Girls just wanna have fun is NOT a classic - it's just a catchy dumb song from 20-25 yeas ago.
      Without Miley singing, today's 12 year old girls would never have heard of it.

    17. Chris says – reply to this


      17

      Are we not done with her yet???? I have yet to see any real talent from her. She can't act, she really can't sing and yet she manages to manipulate the universe into a cult following. Can we start a ban Miley campaign??

      YES she butchered a classic..
      its kinda o.k i guess , but nothing in comparison to the original

      on second thought: nope its just horrible

    48. vocec says – reply to this

    53. lu says – reply to this


      53

      oh
      my
      god
      she KILLED IT!!!

    54. Kayla says – reply to this


      54

      It sux. I understand why she would want to do something new with it, but unfortunately it now sounds like every other crappy song out there. The lighthearted poppy-ness and quirkiness of the original is seriously missing, which is what made it so great and why that song still holds up today. But no doubt it will be a hit with the 5-year-olds who worship her.

    55. dsjmy says – reply to this


      55

      I liked it!!!

    56. alexa says – reply to this


      56

      Holy shit…. That SUCKS!

      Take it down take it down it's burning my ears!

    57. Andre says – reply to this


      57

      What has she done to the song?
      She just completely savaged Cyndi Lauper's song!
      Her new album is going to bomb.
      I'm sure not going to buy it.

    58. Allie says – reply to this


      58

      I like it. The old version gets annoying really fast and I've actually always kind of wanted someone to put a new spin on this song since it is a fun tune.

    59. jen says – reply to this


      59

      I actually like it. She did good

    60. Jenne says – reply to this

    63. ilove says – reply to this


      63

      i dont like it. it has like this violin thing and it makes it kind of sound dramatic or something. she ruined it. Cyndis was so upbeat and fun, her whiney yoodley voice just killed it!

    64. j says – reply to this


      64

      i think her voice sounds really good, ive heard much worse covers of songs than that

    65. ALY says – reply to this


      65

      SHE SOUNDS LIKE A CHIPMUNK ON SPEED… IF I WERE CYNDI LAUPER I WOULD BITCH SLAP HER FOR BUTCHERING THE SONG LIKE THAT!

    66. gymna says – reply to this


      66

      It actually isn't that bad. I wouldn't put it on my iPod, but seriously, I thought it would be worse.
      And yeah, Girls Just Want to Have Fun IS a classic! And actually, people would be surprised at how many old songs twelve and thirteen year olds know.

    67. ash says – reply to this


      67

      It is a classic song! but she doesn't do it justice…

    68. Miss. says – reply to this


      68

      i hate this bitch. w/o disney nobody would know who she is. and that selena gomez girl is gonna blow up and then nobodys gonna give a shit about miley cyrus no more.

    69. simi says – reply to this


      69

      how is she able to make it sound almost country? wow. she cannot touch cindy.

    70. LOVES says – reply to this


      70

      First, it's a great song to begin with. Second, she does a very good job of covering it. Third, who cares what we think? It'll probably sell millions!

      Not too bad, but totally auto-tuned.

    73. Jill says – reply to this


      73

      WAIT A SECOND … HAS CYNDI LAUPER'S MUSIC EVER BEEN CONSIDERED A CLASSIC?
      I DIDN'T THINK SO …

      IN ANY CASE, IT'S CUTE …

    74. Lyla says – reply to this


      74

      noooo miley.
      i mean, its cool that it has an updated sound. BUT this song is just too classic to mess with. i dont like it.

    75. Damie says – reply to this


      75

      I can't stand her but I'm glad that Cyndi will be getting paid!!! Her True Colors tour ROCKED ROCKED ROCKED!!!!

    76. Globe says – reply to this


      76

      dont likee it. her voice isnt strong enough for the song
      and the crazy guitar kinda kills it.
      >:(

    77. It's says – reply to this


      77

      I think it's great!!! I really like her voice.

    78. Donna says – reply to this


      78

      I love Cyndi L.
      This song totally appeals to my 15 year old neice. She loves it.
      I think it sounds fun - but … it is hard to forget and compare it to Cyndi.
      thankfully…my neice doesn't have that problem since, she doesn't know who Cyndi is.

      She's just not a talented person… how did she get so freaking famous?? my kid could do better than that!

    83. jim says – reply to this


      83

      mmm… the auto-tuner.
      just another little ho that thinks she can sing thanks to an over-confident producer who loves to abuse technology.

      85

      Horrible. It sounds like a Weird Al remake, it's just missing the accordian. I can't believe Cyndi Lauper would allow this and i can't believe this girl would attempt this, she simply does not have the talent.

      Good for 12 year old girls I guess, very preteeny boppy

    87. AJ says – reply to this


      87

      For a cover, it's actually pretty good. She has a good voice. Most people who listen to her won't even know it's a cover anyway :P Course, you hate Miley, so you'll trash anything she does irregardless.

    88. kayle says – reply to this

      I like it

      way to butcher a good oldie miss slutana.

      90

      this cover to that song ain't shit. fuck Miley Cyrus stick to what you know best showing pictures of yourself almost naked or sing even more horrible songs on Hannah Monthana. go fuck yourself.

    91. Laris says – reply to this


      91

      I love Miley Cyrus, its a decent cover. Everyone that hates on her most likely does because uhh.. they aren't between the ages of 8 and 12?
      She's marketted to kids, of course you people won't like her. /rolleyes.

    92. morga says – reply to this


      92

      miley is singing it so how good can it be?? she doesnt compare to cyndi and if this is the only way for 12 year olds today to hear this song, then maybe they shouldnt hear it at all

    93. NayCa says – reply to this


      93

      oops…..i think i threw up a lil in my mouth
      hahaha just kidding,
      it was actually better than i expected. I hate the original…
      Although, to me, this seems a little YTV-ish

    94. cyndi says – reply to this


      94

      I think more importantly than what we think, what does the Great Cyndi Lauper think about it. If she likes it than who cares what the great unwashed think.

    95. Shirl says – reply to this


      95

      wow - horrible. I just don't like her voice, and she really ruins this song. Someone who posted before me said "like a chipmunk on speed" - good analogy for it!!

    96. aweso says – reply to this
