In honor of Johnny Ramone, what's your favorite Ramones song?

I'll have to go with "Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World." There's just something touching about a Nazi professing his love for his girl before he marches off to war. :crazy:

The KKK took my baby away
took her away
away from meeeeeeeeeee

Hauntingly beautiful, yet completely absurd at the same time!

they had some great social commentary but done in a real absurd manner.

I met her at the Burger King we fell in love by the soda machine
So we took the car downtown the kids were hanging out all around
Then we went down to Coney Island on the coaster and around again
And no one's gonna ever tear us apart cause she's my sweetheart
All right, oh yeah

Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so

Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so

Hanging out on a night like this I'm gonna give her a great big kiss
I'm gonna make her mine and everything's gonna be real fine

I met her at the Burger King we fell in love by the soda machine
So we took the car downtown the kids were hanging out all around
Then we went down to Coney Island on the coaster and around again
And no one's gonna ever tear us apart cause she's my sweetheart
All right, oh yeah

Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so

Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so Oh oh I love her so

Hands down.

Sorry none of that heavy political stuff you guys are into. Give me the mindless head thrashing and pop sensibility.

PS... Runner up: Cretin Hop

they remind me of my youth-especially the summer hanging out on the shore. They were a great POP band!

For as political as I am, I'm not real big on political songs (unless they're allegorical).

Live it was the ULTIMATE song...I remember seeing them at Hampton Beach years ago, and there was NO DANCING allowed (yeah right!). Pinhead started and I was up, dancing, and thrown out :(

Oh well!

i got thrown over a table when i inadvertiantly got in the way of a bouncer throwing out an idiot. what a great band!!!!

growing up. The Club Casino sucked.

to Bitburg. Timely and rocking.

......Baby baby make me loco...... Baby baby make me mambo

Original '75 pressing of "Judy is a Punk".....

na na na na na na na na na, I wanna be SEDATED!!!!!!!

:thumbsup:

:thumbsup:

That was my very first favorite Ramones song.

Also "Sheena," "(Do You Remember) Rock & Roll Radio," "I'm Affected," "I Just Wanna Have Something To Do," so many other great songs... :cry:

Rockaway Beach-love that song-especially sung with Joey's Queens accent.

those were the days, alright...

May be the only song ever to rhyme "cerebellum."

That's one of my favorite couplets in popular song.

"Someone's gonna have to tell 'em
That I got no cerebellum"

I wanna wanna shock treatment!!!

Honorable mention: "Carbona Not Glue"

No way... at least not today.

:cry:

n/t

There are too many songs to mention, but here a short short list.

My brain is hanging upside down (bonzo goes to bitzburg)
Now I wannna sniff some glue.
Blitzkrieg Pop.
Somebody put something in my drink.
teenage lobotomy
gimme gimme shock treatment
pinhead
we're a happy family
rock'n'roll high school.

I used believed the Ramones were super humans with their constant touring of small clubs in the US. The fact that they are pretty much gone and the original four members of the Sex Pistols are still around says much about how abusive the Ramones they must have been to themselves. It reminds me of the the blue collar factory workers who die shortly after their retirement from the floor.

I thought I read that on DU some time ago...

I remember hearing of him praising Reagan years ago even. :hi:

With a baseball bat, oh yeah!!!!!

Jeb.Bush@MyFlorida.com

I can't decide which of the three. wait 10 minutes and I will haven chosen three completely different songs. :P :shrug:

"Do You Remember Rock 'n' Roll Radio"

Do you remember lying in bed,
With the covers pulled up over your head,
Radio playin' so no one could see?
We need change, and we need it fast,
Before rock's just part of the past
'cause lately it all sounds the same to me.
WHOOOOOAA-OOOOAAAAHHHH!

The KKK took my baby away
Beat on the brat
I wanna be sedated
Sheena

One of the best shows I've ever seen, the Ramones, early 80's, at a club called Haymakers in Palatine, IL.

Loud, Fast, Fun.

RL

Sittin' here in Queens
Eating refried beans
We're in all the magazines
Gulping down thorazines

We ain't got no frends
Our troubles never end
No Christmas cards to send
Daddy likes men


I'm sure in a few weeks, it'll change...
