2. Dee Dee Took The Subway - Badtown Boys
3. Ode To The Ramones - Heideroosjes
4. I wanna see the Ramones - Dirty Scums

a mp3 file)
6. Farewell Ramones - The Beauty & The Beat (It really doesn´t exist yet

"......Norman Wisdom, Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee, good times".
Quite why an ageing British slapstick comedian is in there, rather than a
Ramones drummer, I have no idea, but that's the Human League for you.

"Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee, good times..."
- from the (arghhhhh) Human League: "The Things That Dreams are Made Of"
.
HeyHeyVk
Hey Horrendous, don't knock Norman Wisdom. He's very big in Albania, you know.
By the way, that guy in the Human League (keyboard player, I think) used to
follow the Ramones around on tour before he was in the League, Joey once told
me a funny anecdote about him. Good times, indeed.

I wanna Be Like Dee Dee Ramone by the Parasites ( I think, although I'm
not 100% ) is another.

Actually VK I quite like him, I just wondered why the lumped him in with the
Ramones in the lyrics.

Do you mean the guy who used to be in the Rezillos?

ramones wigs and played sedated and blitzkrieg. And they all have
names like the ramones0
HeyHeyVk
Adrian Wright is the bloke I mean. He wasn't in the Rezillos, was he?
(By the way, I've got a soft spot for Norman Wisdom too. But I've never tried
to make much sense of Human League lyrics! That's a nice song, though, The
Things That Dreams Are Made Of).

I Heard Ramona Sing - Frank Black
Hommage to The Ramones - Wammo
Bands that have more that frequantly make reference to the Ramones in songs not
necessarily about them:
Helen Love - A Girl About Town
- Rockaway Beach for Me, Heartbreak Hotel for You
etc
The Queers - Goodbye California
- Night of the Living Queers
and probably a thousand other bands

No. Jo Callis is the one I was thinking of,( having torn myself away from
the computer long enough to check album sleeves). Adrian played some
keyboards, but his main job was slide projection for the live shows, and an
excellent job he did as well.I saw them at the Brighton Dome, just after
"Dare" came out. I remember big images of Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee being
projected on the screen in perfect synch with the lyrics.

"Dee Dee Ramone strips his bass to the bone, he's a blitzkrieg bopper.
I also remember the Sisters of Mercy singing something about "Blitzkrieg
Bop", but I can't remember the song.

Horsehead - Ramones
Johnny and DeeDee - Teengenerates
Gigantor - Ramone Control
I just had a little time to do some digging, but there's loads about. Just
use the on-line cd stores and type Ramone in the title field.....

Nobodys, I do believe. Don't forget Screeching Weasels "Ramones S/T" LP, The
Vindictives "Leave Home" LP (which is really weird), The Queers "Rocket to
Russia" LP, I think the Parasites did the live album, which I haven't heard,
Mr.T Experience "Road to Ruin", Boris the Sprinkler doing "End of the Century"
(I would've loved to hear Rev.Norb backed by an orchestra doing "Baby I Love
You"), and gawd this stuff is going too far, the mediocre Jon Cougar
Concentration Camp doing "Too Tough to Die".
Ronnie Spector also did "Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World" on her
comeback "punk" record produced by Genya Raven. Unfortunately, I saw it at a
used record store, passing as I figured it would be there next time I
visited...but alas, it was gone.
Oh yeah, the Motards from right here in Austin, TX do "Freak of Nature" on
their drunken romp "Saturday Night Special Ed" LP. Do check it out on EmpTy
Records! Also, Houston garage punks The Jewws do a live cover of "Rockaway
Beach" come to think of it, and I cannot speak highly enough of their
"Heartbreaker" LP.
Until we meet again,

For some reason I thought she did Here Today Gone Tommorow but I've never heard
the record so I don't know..
That just sounds a little too bizarre, the thought of Ronnie Spector singing
"I'm a Nazi babi, I'm Nazi, yes I am."
In fact the thought is just really frightening. (and not for politically
correct reasons.)

You are right. I posted that pretty late last night, so my brain wasn't
functioning that well. She did "Here Today, Gone Tomorrow".

doing Today Your Love, Tommorow the World.
