Listen! Dakota And K-Stew Will Make Your Ears Bleed!
Listen to Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning's rendition of Cherry Bomb from their new movie The Runaways!
We wouldn't really call it singing, but they've got a knack for talking shouting in rhythm.
Bleh.

It's mostly talking rather than singing.
speechless
Actually what am I saying its all talking and no singing lol.
I actually like it. Could have been alot worse!! You are just to used to listening to your wifey and slimeball. You may want to listen to something else for a change.
Forget dog's barking to the Law & Order theme song…this will be the new dog irritant haha.
My dog flipped out when he heard this haha
It's not that bad. Give them a break. It's the 80's, everyone can do it.
BETTER THAN MADONNA
nothing like the original but it could be WAY worse. & i don't even know why you put kristen stewarts name on it. it's all dakota fanning.
cherry bomb wasn't a good song to begin with and i really never cared for the runaways so this is pointless..no offense..but that's how the song sounds so they sound fairly accurate to it but the song is horrible!!
You're just a fat, jealous pig who would like to be parading around on stage in a corset and frilly panties.
Not bad for two ACTRESSES singing for a movie.
frankly the runaways weren't much more than shouting in rhythm anyway.
Maybe you need to relisten to the original there fatboy.
Sniff
I kinda like it!
WOW! Okay!!! I expected it to be much better. And I can't lie I turned it off half way!
Well, this is pretty terrible.
Not Joan Jett. Her voice would come through the speakers. Its not rough enough.
geez!
Re: Shazarabbit – The Runaways were actually a 70s band. But yes give them a break, they're actors not singers and it's not TOO far off from the original version. I'm actually impressed
ja sounds better tha KESHA live…
Do you think he realises that K-Stew wasn't even singing in that? Nor is she credited in the sound-track for that song either?
I don't really understand why I still read Perez to be honest… habit maybe?
Give credit where credit is due — of course it's not GREAT but they're not singers, they're actresses and good on 'em for giving it a shot.
umm, yeah, its a hell of alot like the original, a very good job, but let me guess, people think "singing" is now gospel scales, nope, thats just what they fed you.
You are an idiot, seriously, just a dumb guy.
This is "rock singing", not what you see on american idol.
dumbass
No, my ears did not bleed.
Honestly, it was not that bad.
Is really good!!!! Just leave them alone you fat fuck!!!!!!!!!
Basically the runaways just talked their songs anyway.
the original really wasn't all that freaking good to begin with..
hmmmm…I hoped Dakota would do better…it does sound like talking, that's true..
Actually, after just watching the orriginal group on Youtube, these girls sound pretty much exactly the same.
Sounds a lot like the orriginal actually.
It's not that bad perez you're just being an ass.
This sounds like the diarrhea we gladfully left in the past to rot on a festering pigs dicl
WOW.
That is utterly repulsive.
More repulsive than Kristen Stewart's face (among other things).
Joan Jett, Lita Ford, and the rest of The Runaways ought to be ashamed for letting this horrendous, pitiful excuse for "music" attempt to duplicate their greatness.
Punks around the world (including myself) are weeping.
It totally doesn't sound like them.. I don't like Kristen but I'm actually curious about this movie.
if you've ever listened to the original you'd know that all it was was yelling/talking, there was really no singing to it. so i think dakota and kristen did rather well!
uhhhh the song IS mostly talking and i think they sound great.
There is no way that is Dakota singing that. Also-to all you idiots including perez that don't know the song-that is how it is sung. It is sang like it's mostly talk/sing sort of thing.
REALLY!?!?!?!?! It's the Runaways!!! Not your precious Lady Gaga. They are not supposed to sound good and on key. They are supposed to sound rough to go with their bad ass exterior. I am not a fan of either of those girls but I am stoked to see this movie and hear the music. I think they are going to do an amazing job. Stop being so closed minded to people you don't like and give them an effing chance.
Fatass is just jealous that Dakota sings better than his butt buddy Slimey.
This is an inaccurate suckfest made to pander to tweenies who need a safe way to rebel (likelametwilight!), and reflect upon friendship, and fantasize about being in a band & having fun with no parents. Well, okay! Not my cup 'o tea, would rather see a "Coal Miner's Daughter" epic biopic about JOAN, but as for the song? The original wasn't any good, I think Dakota probably had to bring it down a bit to make it sound passable. Really, that song is cringe-worthy, no matter WHO sings it. I think Pretty WO-man should cover it.
That's the way the original version of the song is. I'm really looking forward to this movie and hopes it won't disapoint!
I imagine Perez should go take a listen to the original. Because that's pretty much what the original was, screaming and a little talking. Come on, it's 70's rock, that's what it was. I actually like it better than the original, it has a little more life.
Just curiosity…. have you ever heard the original? Cause I'm a pretty big fan of the runaways, have been forever, and I don't think they did a bad job… it is actually the version they played for the trailer and I didn¡t even see the difference…. really, you sound like a girl with a childish fit everytime you mention Stewart, get a grip honey
ummm have you not listened to the original, dumbass???
You just can admit you were wrong cuz you said it was gonna be terrible xDDD and it isn't, you just have to suck it up and stop crying like a fucking little girl
STOP HATING! If Joan Jett and Cherie Currie then it doesn't really matter what you think does it.
definitely sounds like she's holding back and lilke she had a lot of trouble singing a lot of "ch-" sounds over and over again
It sounds awesome. I can't wait for the movie
it's horrendous! I would be embarrassed to have that released…
It's really not that bad, it even sounds a little like the original…
I like it and really want to see the movie
It sounds pretty much exactly like the original. No need to be bitchy because you don't like Kristen Stewart.
You wouldn't know good music anyway, even if this isn't good. Your idea of good music are lip synching ex Disney kids and Euro trash Steam Bath Napoleon Dynamite look a likes.
this actually sounds good, and you would know that this is how its supposed to sound if you even listened to the runaways.
Perez you ass this sounds almost the same as the original and its not bad at all!
i like it …sounds like cherie when she first ssang it …but dakota's voice sounds younger.
theres NOTHING wrong with this at all Dakota Fanning isnt a singer and she sound good.
Ewwwww! Stick to acting girls!
FUCK OFF PEREZ - JUST BECAUSE ITS NOT FCKING GAGA.
Oh my god.
Wow, it's pretty different. I'm undecided, they're mostly just talking, but it could have been so much worse, I can't imagine it's an easy song to sing.
I think it's freakin' awesome! Very close to the original. WAY better than most of the shit you try to get people to listen to and better than anything you did on that show where you were trying to sing.
Pretty inline w/ the rest of the sound then….I think they did fine for people that don't proclaim themselves to be singers and are instead playing parts in a movie!
They're not really even singing…. My cat ran away from my computer and that's a BAD sign, she usually can listen to anything.
It sounds just like original. Dakota does a good job.
Ummm… perez, have you not heard the original lately? Just google it and play one after the other… they're not very different.
The original is basically shouting, just like the new version. Don't get me wrong, I've loved this song for years, but the original singer (Cherie?) doesn't sing much more than Dakota does in this version. It's meant to be rough and rebellious, not pop.
You just want to hate it, Perez.
If you don't know the original song than you shouldn't comment at all. They did a great job on the song considering they are actresses.
Perez = ass!
its to soft…. :S i don't like it
It's not that bad. Could be worse!
go dakota! i have to say, these chicks did a great job with this film, from what i've seen so far.
Uh…have you ever heard the original before Perezzzz? Get a clue before you diss someone…Jesus Christ on a cracker - for someone who has no talent attempting to 'call out' actresses for not having a singing voice…whole new meaning to Pot Calling The Kettle Black…huh Mr. Pot…?
I love the chorus.
The rest is okay. It isn't bad though, especially if that's the way she's supposed to sing.
It's not even bad you lard fuck.
Not too far from the original really. You ever hear of punk rock perez. The sex pistols are one of the most influential bands ever and jon lydon sounds like a cat getting stepped on. Once again you prove to know absolutely nothing about music. You actually are perfect for American Idol; zero talent and zero credibility.
Perez, you're a douche.
The song isint even that bad
listen to the original, assface.
I liked it alot. Dakato can act and sing. Good for her.
To all the ignorant people here making stupid comments, please listen to the original of this song! Kristin and Dakota have nailed it almost perfectly!!! The Runaways had a raw, rough sound and this sounds almost identical to the original. Perez does not ever do his homework or he would have known this!
its actually not that bad. You just hate kristin stewart
okay for one thats how the runaways did their songs. 2 i actually like how they sang it too. better than you could have or most people. its not horrible. rock was like this before. it wasnt all pretty and danty like.
you dumb ass perez and co., have you even heard of the original? Cherie Currie basically scowls out the whole song, stupido. All Stewart does on this is scream Cherry Bomb too, it's dakota singing the verses and most of the chorus. She did okay, Kristen's singing is better though cause she's got Joan's rasp down.
Come on Perez it sounds good and your afraid to admit it! I know you have to keep ditching on Kristen because that is the only way people will check out your so called "Columns" or "work" if that is what you call it. Is this your real job or do you do this when mommy sends you to your room? I thought you might actually be subjective and give this one a chance but I overestimated your sinister self. I think you call the kettle black! You always ditch Kristen for not smiling, etc but every comment or article you have is cruel and not nice to anyone so how are you so different from Kristen then huh?? Oh I forgot she has what you will NEVER TOUCH OR SMELL - ROB!!! LOL!!! So, are you more like Kristen and that is why you feel the need to bash on her all the time?? Well, Kristen will have the last laugh on you all the way to the bank with all her millions and let's not forget her BOYFRIEND ROB!! Go ahead and keep ditching on her because she has friends that would look totally down on you and not give you the time of the day! Go ahead and do what you have to do to get you through the day! I think Kristen should call you out sometime dude! She could whip your ass without thinking twice about it. Are you a dude for real?? That is the million dollar question I have for you!
Oh Please. Have you even heard the original? It's completely in the same style. Doesn't sound bad actually and I'm an original Runaways fan so I'm pretty relieved to be able to say that.
I was a teenager when the Runaways were 'popular.' They never achieved anything other than a small cult following and the rock and roll magazines covered them extensively for about a year, but then they just faded away. Cherry Bomb was a bomb and never got radio play. The were a novelty for supposedly being the first all girl band, but the women that were really making the hits and having the success were the really talented ones like Heart and the women of Fleetwood Mac and Linda Ronstadt. I always thought it was such a shame that these girls didn't have more talent. They really did suck. Hurray for Joan Jett and Lita Ford for having some success. One of the Runaways girls was a 'Bangle' for a while, too. Another 'all girl band' with a lot more hype than talent. Just listened to the real 'Cherry Bomb' on YouTube. Sounds pretty darned close. You're just a hater, Perez. You have the girls that you hate for some weird, obscure reason that only you know and you won't let up. I wish K-Stew great success!
It wasn't as bad as I expected. I actually kind of like it. I was going to see the movie regardless, because I love Joan Jett, but it's nice to know my ears won't be bleeding the whole time.
its funny how you squeeze in Kristen's name towards the beginning when really we can only hear Dakota singing
Re: bearmonty – This song is suppose to be (and is Dakota singing, KStew is singing Chorus) Cherry Bomb!! Joan Jet didn't pick up singing this song until Cherry left the group, naturally! And in this movie OBVIOUSLY it is WHILE Cherry is in the band!
I don't think it's bad at all.
I'm sure no one expects it to be as good as the original.
On it's own, I quite like it.
1. this is actually really close to the original 2. joan jett didn't sing it 3. douchebags slamming it and claiming to be punk are just posers who've obviously never actually heard the original 4. i have no idea what k-whatever's claim to fame is and i thought dakota fanning was a little kid so i think this movie may be crap but anyone who bashes this version of the song doesn't have a clue what they're talking about because it is very similar
Sounds really good. YOU ARE AN ASS PEREZ.
I have this record…they nailed it! I dunno why RP is with her her either, but he is, and they seem happy. Stop picking on her! It's so lame and wtf did she ever do to you? fuck Robert? ^_^
um have n e of you heard the original??? they sound the same…its the decade sound. has nothing to do with dakota and kristen the song sounds that bad already. i give em props for just tring to sing it.
Wow, quit lying to yourself people. You liked it and you know it. It sounds SO good. And you KNOW that guitar solo was badass.
I remember the original. It rocked and this also rocks. I'm surprised… I wanted to hate it.
I think it sounds a whole lot like the original, actually, from your hate I was expecting way worse, but it sounds like they really studied The Runaways sound and hit the nail on the head.
why are they in the sound track in the first place ? hate it when actors turn singers and plus they suck @ it.
It's not bad at all.
Obviously noone here , including perez, really knows shit all about the Runaways because thier too busy listening to auto-tune glossy pop shit.
Re: Shazarabbit –
it was the 70s, idiot
I can't get over the pathetic people at this site.
what do I torment myself and continue to come here?
*Jappy voice* "omygawd, they aren't even singing , thier like TALKING and stuff. like woowwwww, this is sooooo baaaad. The only music I've ever been exposed to was pre-packaged shit with the X Factor or American Idol seal of approval so, this, like realy goes over my head. I don't geddit."
Fucking
FUCKING
morons.
It wasn't that bad to be honest, it's not like the runaways were revolutionary music geniuses in the first place. Shut your hole.
Geez, my ears did bleed. I switched off half way. If this is how the original sounded, I now know why I had only vaguely heard of Joan Jet (never heard of The Runaways) and had had never heard a song of theirs.
the song is horrible!!
Um, you might wanna try listening to the original first before you form an opinion. They pretty much sound the same. And give them a break, they're a rock group who does rock singing, not exactly Whitney Houston. They did VERY good!!!! You just like to tear down Kristen Stewart every chance you get, and to me that's not fair. Plus, she doesn't even sing on this song!!!! She didn't sing in the Runaways that much either, she just played rhythm guitar. I actually love this!!! I thought it was good!
