Listen! More Of Dakota Shouting Singing The Runaways


Maybe you can fare longer, but we only got about halfway through each song before our ears started to cry.

Especially Queens of Noise! Boy, do you SUCK KStew!

Here are two more Runaway's classic songs butchered performed by Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart.

Thoughts?

      Nice elevator music……..or maybe music to put me to sleep…zzzzzzzzzzzz



    2. 2

      OMG! - what a waste of time that was. Were they suppose to sound like the Runaways? Sounded like a couple of 12 year old wannabe American Idol contestants. Now I will definataly NOT be seeing this movie…..



    3. 3

      I don't think it's that bad. I think you're just hating on them because you don't like Kristen Stewart.



    4. 4

      its good girly punk rock!

      kstew and dakfan are the real deal. they are the next gen of cool edgy good actresses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    5. 5

      Kristen Stewart even sings like she's bored.



    6. 6

      Sounds like almost the exact same. Shut up ..it wasnt bad.



    7. 7

      They sound good to me. Then again I don't know any of the Runaways music.



    8. 8

      I think Dakota sounds great, she's no Cherie Currie but she sounds decent. The Runaways didn't have a lot of songs that were real meaningful, but damn Kristen made it sound like such a bummer. I'm still excited about the movie though!



    9. 9

      This is terrible but that Hall and Oates cover was awesome? You have some odd musical standards, Perez.



    10. 10

      Dakota sounds very much like Cherie, it's eerie!



    11. 11

      It's definitely gonna be a movie not to everyones liking. I'm sure there are gonna be so many of those Twilight fans that are gonna go and be disappointed. If you aren't familiar with them, you just might not get the whole thing or you just might come out a fan. Long live The Runaways!!!



    12. 12

      it's really not that bad, cut 'em a break



    13. 13

      I like it. I think it sounds good. It's really not that awful.



    14. 14

      they BUTCHERED "Cherry Bomb" I thought my ears were gonna bleed. I had to listen to the original to make me feel better.



    15. 15

      I don't think it's bad at all… In fact, dakota really sounds like Cherie… it's creepy



    16. 16

      I like it. I don't know what your deal is.



    17. 17

      what do you expect??? they are actors, not rock stars.



    18. 18


    19. 19

      but if it was Lady GaGa singing like that you would be praising it you fat hypocritical lame biased sonuvabitch!



    20. 20

      whats with the Auto-Tune



    21. 21

      ok perez or whoever. please take this post as constructive criticism from a 30-something, professional, college-educated woman who just happens to enjoy reading the gossip from time to time: when you make posts like the one above, because you are jealous of some poser who's sleeping with some soon-to-be-has-been that you are obsessed with and have no chance of EVER being with, you aren't just insulting the actresses, you are insulting the band, the director who cast them, the producers, the casting director, the sound engineers and more. do you not realize that all of these people play a role in getting these clips out to the public? do you think they would release something they were ashamed of? i have no intention of seeing this movie but i happen to be a huge joan jett fan and know she had a lot of input on this movie, so i give her credit and trust that she is satisfied. i'd love to see her take you out back and kick your ass!

      22

      You are obviously too young to remember the original Runaways…this is a massive improvement



    23. 23

      The Runaways had classic songs? further proof you know absolutely nothing about music perez. Not to knock them, but seriously? classic? besides this actually sounds quite a bit like them. Maybe all that semen youve been ingesting has rotted ur brain.



    24. 24

      YEAH BUT IF IT WAS LADY FUCKING GAGA SINGING LIKE THIS PEREZ WOULD BE LIKE "OMGOMGOMGOMG GAGALICIOUSSSSSSS" SERIOUSLY LEAVE K STEW ALONE…GET THE FUCK OVER IT—SHES GOT PAT PEREZ FIND A NEW GUY TO DROOL OVER!



    25. 25

      It is so obvious that Perez has some flunky doing his work for him.



    26. 26

      Re: lizzylou – LIZZYLOU YOUR AWESOME



    27. 27

      Whether it's Perez or Barbara who wrote this, you seriously need to take your attention off hating on Kristen Stewart and focus on getting laid. Seriously I have never read/heard so much cranky, bitter bitching in my life. No matter how much you put Kristen down it won't make Robert Pattinson fall madly in love with you, like you probably imagine he will when you are hugging your pillow to sleep every night. No matter how famous you get, it will always be internet fame, and you will always be a pathetic brat who uses over the top bitchiness to compensate for a lack of social skills (or the even more pathetic sister of one).



    28. 28

      Actually for Dakota's voice being an entire octave lower than Cherrie Currie she did a pretty good job of it. Also, I notice that you didn't put up Dead and Justice which was AMAZING! Kristen almost sounds just like Joan. These girls did great for having no musical background and trying to imitate rock and roll legands.



    29. 29

      They don't sound that bad. What are you listening to?



    30. 30

      this movie is gonna suck - not gonna even watch it for free



    31. 31

      Um no. Just no.



    32. 32

      Honestly the singing is really BAD. Kristen sounds like a total man with a sour throught. WTF?



    33. 33

      I think they sound pretty good. Way better than the Mr. Cellophane audition you did, you dumbass.



    34. 34

      Re: aymissrae – EXACTLY! the same youtube user has DEAD END JUSTICE up as well. check it out. Kristen sounds so sexy.



    35. 35

      dear perez, due to your continuous bitching about that movie i'll propably will go see it if they'll ever show it here in germany ~ if not - hell, i might even go and buy it on dvd.
      i just listened to the original runaways songs on youtube and i'm in with my forewirters: bitter/jealous/un-laid much? although the original songs sound more edgy and rough, i think dakota and kristen did a decent job. period.
      time to stop hating, peretzl, it's getting pathetic.



    36. 36

      you know, your misogynistic woman hating comments are getting old Perez. Kristen Stewart should sue you for slander. Why don't you shut the fuck up for a while. oh and barbygurl, the runaways WERE 12 year old girls you idiot.



    37. 37

      Why do you hate Kristen Stewart so much?



    38. 38

      considering it's actually them- they're not doin' too bad. better than a rock n roll biopic where they dub in the real music as if we're all idiots. i say bravo for finding two actresses who mostly look and sound the part…



    39. 39

      PEREZ YOU SOUND LIKE A BULLY THE WAY YOU BEAT UP ON KRISTEN STEWART. YOUR SO HIGH SCHOOL. ….

      OVER IT.



    40. 40

      Have you ever listened to the Runaways? This is far from high quality, but in all actuality, there's not a whole lot of difference (aside from the harmonies) between this and the original



    41. 41

      I think you just say you don't like it cause its not , like, cool..get over it, it was good:)



    42. 42

      I would pick this over Lady Cockface anyday of the week.
      I'm sick of computer music.
      I miss the RAW POWER



    43. 43

      Haha, how many of you talking crap on them have as much money as they do???? Yea didnt think so.



    44. 44

      Seriously? Have you never heard the originals to any of the Runaway's songs? I don't know that you could call any of their songs "classics", and KStew and Dakota didn't butcher them, because it was not like they were great vocally to begin with. Stop being such a hater!



    45. 45

      Sounds like a decent representation to me and a hell of a lot better than some people who have record deals.



    46. 46

      With all of the shitty music you post one here I really don't understand why you're giving this such a hard time. Just cuz its associated w/ kristen stewart? She's sucking pattinson's dick and you never will. Get over it already!

      And you will never convince me that you had any clue about the runaways before the movie talks/production, so please stop trying to act like you give a fuck about the integrity of the original music.



    47. 47

      sounded pretty close to the originals to me



    48. 48

      I didn't think it was that bad….

    49. losky says – reply to this


      49

      its punk rock..its suppose to sound rough and raw…not like whitney houston come on people.



    50. 50

      Perez, I know this is your blog and you have a right to your own opinion but the KStew hatred is getting really old. Okay, she's socially awkward which may make her seem aloof and boring. She is a talented actress who doesn't deserve to be constantly s*** on by you.



    51. 51

      i like it.



    52. 52

      I don't like either of these actresses, however this ain't terrible. Dakota probably does the whole rock-voice better.
      .
      Tonnes of good production would help a lot, but heck, you'd think this was gonna be a train wreak the way you go on.
      .
      I wouldn't be writing home about it, but it's not bad.



    53. 53

      I thought it was okay.



    54. 54

      it sounds good for overproduced crap

      listen to the original recordings…they are raw and full of life

      just as we all were back in the 70s

      oh wait…most of the people on this blog (including the blog master) werent even in their daddy's balls in the 70s



    55. 55

      Lord, how I loved Joan Jett in the 80's - she is my favorite female rocker along with Gwen Stefani and Pink. I just hare to see her music sung by chicks who can't sing! Kristen Stewart has hair like Joan Jett but the resemblance ends there. But I will see the movie anyway. For Joan.



    56. 56

      Re: Qxicano – I hope your not serious



    57. 57

      Re: jones19 – you're ears are clean right?



    58. 58

      Re: jones19 – how are you gonna comment that dakota sounds like cherrie if you havent heard the runaways, it wasn't bad on dakota's part but she's no cherrie! Cherrie was fucking grit and balls to the wall, something that dakota doesnt know from personal experience. I'm sorry but when people like you who comment on classic music and dont have a clue about it, its best to be seen and not read in these cases.



    59. 59

      Re: aymissrae – i gotta agree not liking dakota so much but steward is on point with her vocals!



    60. 60

      perez you are such an idiot, poor child of new media.
      Thats what singing used to be, thats what rock music WAS, until american idol fucked it all up with its fakery and god damn show off gospel scales.
      Its sad to see someone not know anything but what the TV tells her
      so sad..
      this IS rock, you are just to young and stupid to know it



    61. 61

      hating on this chick just shows what a loser you really are..



    62. 62

      It wasn't THAT bad…



    63. 63

      1) it's not that bad.
      2) not a fan of either actress, but it's still not bad.
      3) i don't think they're live, are they? even people with record labels are awful live (sorry, t-swift!) but manage to sound decent with all the sound technicians and stuff while recording.



    64. 64

      I loved this!!!! They sound like the original!!!! Just goes to show you don't really know that much about music!!!!! Do your homework before you start criticizing. Just sayin'…



    65. 65

      For one this music is the style of 70s music, which isnt actually in style right now and they don't sound that much different from the original…Runaways were not like your precious Lady Gaga, Perez.



    66. 66

      I don't hear anything wrong with it. Perez being hypercritical as usual…what else is new?



    67. 67

      I totally don't get this music. I think it sounds terrible and boring. No matter who is singing it. I give them credit though…..they did better then what I would have done.



    68. 68

      Not as bad



    69. 69

      Not bad but I prefer the new version of "Cherry Bomb" better.



    70. 70

      I'm tired of all your hate perez… just cos Kristen Stewart is involved you hate it… get real. This site is on its way to the shitter, becoming just about who you like and who you don't rather than any subjective information. And, the worse thing about it is, it's so see through, Simon Cowell is a major douche but currently you're licking his ass cos you want a job!! Taking vulgarity to a new level, kudos!



    71. 71

      It sounds good. Clearly nothing like the original, like anyone can pull that off, but it sounds good.

    72. MamaU says – reply to this


      72

      Have you ever listened to the Runaways? Cherie Currie could not sing. They were wildly entertaining and Joan Jett and Lita Ford are very talented. Dakota did a good job with the song.



    73. 73

      hmmmm…I love Dakota, she's a very talented actress, but she's no singer fo sho!



    74. 74

      Here we go again Perez….do you research ANYHTING you throw up on your site? Have you listened to ANY Runaways originals? Do you have ANY idea what you are talking about? I think I will start a website showing how little you know about anything you put on your site…yeah…that's what I'll do. Gawd…you are a moron…



    75. 75

      You the only reason your slating it is because its Kristen! Dude grow the fuck up shes only what 19/20!



    76. 76

      i think dakota sounds pretty good.



    77. 77

      As much as i like Dakota, I thnk she had better just stick with acting.



    78. 78

      I am gonna agree with one thing….Dakota sounds good, but waaaay to young for Cherry Bomb, she kinda sounds like she is 10…. But I have to disagree…Kstew sounds great, I really like the other 2 songs she is present in , great vocals.

    79. auds says – reply to this


      79

      it doesn't sound that bad, but it's gotta be computerized beyond belief to get it to sound that decent. it doesn't sound natural and clear, it sounds like it's been completely altered.



    80. 80

      I think that they did a good job, Kristen was good but of course, anyone would suck next Joan Jett. She is the queen of rock, no one can do better that her.

    81. Kakec says – reply to this


      81

      ok really …hunnie you need to get your head checked!!!!!!! they did a great job.. I listened to this track and then the original and they are soooooo close.. not only that but it is PUNK music… it is more screaming then singing….. stop dissing it just cause you are soooooo jealous of Kstew



    82. 82

      the singing wasnt that bad. People go on about Miley Cyrus being a slut (internet pics etc) yet there is Dakota dressed in fishnet stockings and a corset at the age of 15. I love Dakota i think shes fantastic. but why hasnt anyone else noticed or mentioned this



    83. 83

      Not SO bad. I mean…we're not talking about trying to imitate a professional operatic voice here! I say at least they are doing their own singing. Back in the glory days of Hollywood, most of the actors were a combination of trained actor, dancer, singer etc. Today, you just don't find that kind of talent. I always think it's great, and brave, for today's actors to do their own singing. good for them—and give 'em a break Perez.

      well, if rpats _is_ a musician, they definitely are NOT dating. because that is the worst cover ever.



    87. 87

      Re: Lil*star – because that's the way Cherie Currie used to dress! She wore corsets, and fishnets and whatnot… It was fucking Jailbait Rock, they were jailbait. It was not punk rock, it was raw rock. And Perez, you should just SHUT THE FUCK UP… I'm pretty sure you have never, EVER listened to The Runaways, because if you have you would notice that Kristen's voice is similar to Joan's, but well… your brain is obviously damaged.



    88. 88

      Whaat? It sounds great!! And Dakota does a great Cherie! Kristen Stewert sounds fine too. Haters gonna hate I guess.
      Looking forward to this movie



    89. 89

      This actually sounds just like the originals. I think you're having a bit of trouble getting past the fact that you abhor Kristen Stewart. The Runaways are not some kind of great singers that they just ruined. They sound spot on and actually did a great job. Can't wait for the movie.



    90. 90

      their cover of Dead End Justice was awesome



    91. 91

      Re: CULLEN-FAMILY-VOTE – Can you shut the hell up? Kristen is a great actress and they would never replace her, they know that is just hate against her and not the acting. Whoever that would play Bella would be hated because of Robert or Twilight haters. She is a good actress and she has even won prices to prove it. Professionals have sad that she is good and they have nominated her to win prices. She may win because of Twilight fans but they are not the ones to nominate her all the time. Roger Ebert thinks she is good and he is a great critic.
      You hate her for no reason, she is an excellent actress and you would know that if you had seen other movies with her than Twilight because Twilight is not that great of a movie. Almost no one was good in it. But I think that Kristen did a good Bella, she is almost exactly like Bella is in the book and you would also know that if you have read them.
      But she is a much better actress in other movies.
      They will NEVER replace her.
      She is even the reason Robert even is Edward (if you hate her because of that).
      Get your ass out the chair and do something you god at, Kristen are doing something she is good at so stop wasting your time, it’s really pathetic.



    92. 92



    93. 93

      Plus, even Joan and Cherie were in the studio with them while they recorded, so I'm sure they had to get approved before it went onto the soundtrack…



    94. 94

      perez i liked you before i realized you're just a bitch. say something nice about someone besides lady gaga for a change. dick.
