THE Runaways-Joan Jett-Lita Ford.

The Runaways, Lita Ford, Joan Jett, Girlschool, we have plenty of examples of amazing female talent that equals or beats that of male talent already in the pool..

Should she be? Yes, definitely
Will she be? No
She was much more entrenched in the sleaze metal scene than Joan Jett or Heart, who only flirted with it, and critics have always been derisive towards the genre and remain so.

Why is the voting question "will she be" rather than "should she be"? As it is it can't be used to gauge anything because it all depends on how realistically the fan is considering the question. Didn't it take Black Sabbath and KISS a long time to even get on the ballot? That leaves me pessimistic about the chances of anyone in 80s metal. Meanwhile, other fans are going to answer as if the question were "Do you think they should be in the Hall?".

Lita Ford only had two hits. Her hits were "Kiss Me Deadly" and a duet with Ozzy Osbourne called "Close My Eyes Forever."

@Brian Schonour And Jimi Hendrix only had one hit, and it was a cover tune at that. Some of the most influential artists in history have had zero. Hit singles are irrelevant.

Lita Ford should definitely be inducted into the hall of fame. Such bullshit that is keeping her out. She has been on this scene for a long time. With Joan Jett. She has promoted rock and roll all her life. She donated that beautiful double neck, tour used electric quitar. If they thought the quitar was worth the real estate, why wouldn't the girl who played it be worthy. She probably told some executive to go f••• themselves and hurt his feelings. C'mon, get it together .

Lita Ford is so overdue to be in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame as she is still rocking audiences with her band. She is Rock and Roll Resilience as a singer, guitarist and performer all these decades yet still looks forever young with a love for her fans.
