More quotes by Joan Jett
I learned how to scream from Marc Bolan.
Joan Jett
Disharmony is natural in any band.
Joan Jett
Even though everybody's lives are different, in general we're all human beings, and we go through the same things: disappointments, the pleasures of life, life and death. That's always been a really big part of the show to me, making sure the audience feels connected, and that carries through to the album.
Joan Jett
When I came back to it, we amicably separated from Warner Bros. I just picked up where I left off, trying to write the rest of this record. It took awhile to get out.
Joan Jett
Shaving my head was a millennium ritual, to not let it pass as just another New Year's Eve. A lot has happened to me in the last couple of years, personally and spiritually. I wanted to mark it for myself.
Joan Jett
When you write songs you're commenting on love, you're commenting on sex, relationships, whatever it is that you decide to write about it. And I've wanted to write about politics or spiritual ideas for years.
Joan Jett
Anyone who wants to know who I am can just read my lyrics - I've always written about who I am.
Joan Jett
Can't break free from the things that you do. I wanna walk, but I run back to you, that's why I hate myself for loving you.
Joan Jett
Partly, I like a bad reputation. But I also want a reputation of being a good person.
Joan Jett
Get a book, so you know where to put your fingers. Otherwise it would be tough to learn. Also you have to fight through getting callouses on your fingers because it hurts, you are pressing your fingers on metal strings, they will hurt at first until you start building up callouses.
Joan Jett
Well, I'll tell you, I don't know how aware teenagers are of me. I think it really depends on the teenager and how well-versed in music they are and what kind of music they like.
Joan Jett
Being the first is kind of dirty, and it's great
Joan Jett
I love school. I was a great student.
Joan Jett
The only good thing you ever said was goodbye.
Joan Jett
The Runaways' audience was 90 percent male. That was kind of depressing...Why don't women-our own gender-come out and support us?
Joan Jett
I grew up in a world that told girls they couldn't play rock 'n' roll.
Joan Jett
I think the one-on-one gigs connecting with the fans - is the most important thing. That will help build your fan base. They'll talk about you, and word spreads. Those things are just as important as knowing how to play an E chord.
Joan Jett
Girls see these defined roles they're supposed to follow in life, but when I was a young child, my parents told me I could be anything.
Joan Jett
A lot of people ask me why I don't expand and explore other musical areas, but I like the plain three- and four-chord rock-and-roll that I call the the semi-blues.
Joan Jett
The follow your dreams thing is really important because so many people are railroaded into taking other paths by their family, their friends, people who should be supportive going, 'What are you talking about?' Even just seemingly regular career paths, but if it's not what people expect for you they kind of react funny.
