"I Wanna Be Your Dog" is Joan Jett and the Blackhearts' cover of the 1969 garage rock song by The Stooges. While the intro almost echoes what Jimi Hendrix-arguably the greatest guitarist in history-was doing with the guitar at the time, both musically and visually, the rest of the track is a strong example of proto-punk. It likely played a role in inspiring Joan Jett's early interest in punk rock during the formative years of her career. The song carries a heavy, gritty tone that dominates the mood throughout. The music video is a montage of live performance footage, interviews with Jett, and various candid clips from other moments.
