How can it be that Marianne Faithfull is not in the Rock & Roll HOF? It's all the more perplexing to know that Joan Jett (whose second most famous record is just a cover of Tommy James' "Crimson & Clover") is in, but Marianne Faithfull is not. To compound the inequities, Tommy James is also not in the HOF. HOF, please fix these oversights.

I like Marianne Faithfull's version of "As Tears Go By" because you're never too old to feel like a child.

It's weird how Marianne Faithfull has been eligible for rock hall consideration since 1990, but has never been inducted, let alone nominated. She should've been inducted already simply for being part of the British Invasion and her close association with the Stones during that era.

What makes Marianne different from her contemporaries Dusty Springfield and Petula Clark is that she always rejected being a pop star and became more of an individualist. By the time she released Broken English, she carved a new career path, making albums in the 80s and 90s that defied categories and collaborating with the likes of Beck, Nick Cave and PJ Harvey on her albums in the 2000s resulting her status as a cult artist and continued to earn a great deal of respect from so many artists over the years.
