    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.

    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??

    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

    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

    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

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

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

  70. LOVES says – reply to this

    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!

    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

    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.

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

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

    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.

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