today's feel good friday tune is a song perhaps you might have heard before, sly and the family stone's, "everyday people," but, the version i'm focusing on is the cover by the one and only joan jett.
don't get me wrong, i love the original by sly and the family stone, in fact, i'll post their video in here:
but, there's just something about joan jett. she adds a certain edge to the song with her rock essence that just oozes out of her.
what i appreciate about joan jett is her unapologetic nature to just be who she is, and she doesn't care if you take it or leave it. she's just going to do her thing regardless.
it shows an unwavering strength not too many people have. she holds her own in a world where men are the dominant competitor. rock'n'roll has few ladies to it's name, but joan jett refused to be bullied by that and still rocks hard even today.
ok, i'll stop gushing about my adoration for joan jett. (but i just think all that is so fitting for the reason i started this blog, and will maybe give some of you hope and a new rocker attitude! ;] )
she covered sly and the family stone's "everyday people," and i love it, so, my hope is you will too!
here it is!
ENJOY!
oooh-sha-sha, we got to live together!
happy friday! and have a most radical weekend! (even if you're working, like me, this weekend! lets try and make the most of it, yeah?!)
much love,
xoxo
