Moose (punk rocker kinda guy)first played me this tribute for the Ramones done by Motorhead at the time of its release in 1991 from the album called 1916. Aaron one of my good blogging buddies at his site Keeps Me Alive just did recently a Ramones compilation album review (We’re A Happy Family)that featured artists like Kiss/U2/Red Hot Chili Peppers/The Pretenders covering Ramones Classics. Missing though from the compilation was this great 1 minute 30 second Blitzkreig of a tune performed and written by Lemmy/Phil Campbell and Mickey Dee paying homage to the Ramones called well R.A.M.O.N.E.S!
This song just flat out rocks from the opening riff the music is played fast like ummmmm like speed! Super duper fast speed shit I need some of what these dudes are taking!(than again maybe not!). Seriously though as quick as this song is over you can’t help hearing Lemmy spewing the words R.A.M.O.N.E.S thru your noggin! This song is friggin catchy like Motorhead has hook(er)s!
Misfits Twillight Zone…R-A-M-O-N-E-S…..
Bottom line this is a serious kick ass track and for your viewing expierence along with the live video comes the lyrics so you can all sing along at the breakfast table when your all eating and spilling your Cheerios while reading my blog! Ha….
Also of note a few of my great followers who get my blog zipped to there cellular device said we can’t see any vids ..Yep,they are there just click the link or better yet cruise onto your home computer and get the full effect of my silliness! (By the way once again thanks for reading!)
Ok…now Crank This!
Great tune. Love the 1916 album too. Still listen to it a lot.

Oh YEEEEEAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Woohoo!
I loved the “lyrics” subtitles. They did a fairly good job until they got to “Mark can kick your ass,” which they printed as “Mark takes it up the ass.” Hooboy. Hit up 0:36 to get the lead-in to it at 0:42…

Of course my memory of it wasn’t the best, so I looked up Adios Amigos and the subtitles, in this case, were right. It was Lemmy that changed it. Mysteries solved hahaha!

Honestly? I don’t know, but it works. There’s something about the energy, the give a fuck feel to it, it just centers the Universe and all the extra crap that overloads us just tends to go away as it gets steamrolled by those guys.
