i've always felt this version represented this particular california girl better than the original. maybe it was the chicks in the video...or the fact that there *was* a video to this song. :) maybe it's just the percussion.

gosh, i thought we were going to get aerosmith there for a minute with those big bad joey drums. but it's "radioactive." who is singing this song? is it paul rogers?

Those were chicks?

Seriously, I thought they were transformers!  More.Than.Meets.The.Eye

They make for a nice bookend with Elton's "I'm Still Standing," at any mileage.
