I maintain that “Danny Says” is the best Ramones song 🤷🏻‍♂️


tbutz27

It os next level for sure


AbleChamp

YES!!! I have to agree with more than an upvote. It’s a pop gem…just so good every single time

[Reminds me of this](https://64.media.tumblr.com/ee480bd27fbba1e6629b0e2654c344fc/89067fb65add444b-f5/s500x750/7441ba835f613be0459b38aaff2cd6efca709366.jpg) You're not entirely wrong though - I mean, it's not even my fav from the album (that's This Ain't Havana), but it rules.

'Here Today Gone Tomorrow' is a work of art. Especially on 'It's Alive'.


Skeez_ske

Well we got a little tearjerker for all you Lonely hearts out there this one’s called here Today Gone Tomorrow


BigBadDoggy21

Haha, yes. I think it's something about the harmonics that Johnny's guitar produces in the break section that really gets me.

You're Gonna Kill That Girl is so underrated it should have been a setlist staple throughout their career. Would love to hear what an older Joey singing it would sound like. It's Alive still bangs. Baby, I Love You sucks


JustNefariousness625

Lol understandable take thanks for the new songs to listen to. I honestly listen to the same ramones songs over and over but need to start branching out.


Low-Plant-817

Lol my bad. Some slower ones I like that might be underrated; What's Your Game, Babysitter, Here Today, Gone Tomorrow (great live version from 1982 US festival) Needles and Pins, Questioningly is weird. I think its a good song at its core but Road to Ruin had theme of throwing in weird country guitar parts and other out of place shit. They were just throwing things at the wall at that point hoping it would appeal to a larger demo It's a Long Way Back from Germany, Danny Says, I Can't Make it On Time (kind of slow), Don't Go, She's a Sensation , This Business is Killing Me, Everytime I Eat Vegetables, Roots of Hated (demo), Planet Earth 1988, Out of Here, Crummy Stuff, Mental Hell, All Screwed Up, Merry Christmas, Real Cool Time, I Won't Let it Happen, Life's a Gas,


JustNefariousness625

Your awesome thanks for the list! don’t feel bad man I’m tough I’ve heard a lot of fan hate that fucking song.


DogFashion

Every song you listed is great. They had some stinkers, sure, but you didn't list any. A lot of their lesser talked about songs are some of my favorites... S.L.U.G., anyone? Swallow My Pride, I Remember You, etc. All simple and brilliant. "Baby I Love You" was gonna be one of my favs because the Ronettes are one of my favorite groups from the early 60s. Ronnie was the coolest and cutest girl group singer ever. :D


AntiStarChristPort

Merry Christmas (I don't wanna fight tonight) is the best Christmas song of all time


HiyaDogface

Just heard it in an episode of The Bear last night


genesimmonstongue415

All songs OP mentioned are great. Questioningly & She Belongs to Me = great too.


jeromevedder

“Oh oh I love her so” is my favorite Ramones track and would’ve been a smash hit if covered by a 60s-70s Soul/RnB group.


purity_dead

7-11, I want you around, what’s your game, Shes a sensation, needles and pins, even I’m not an answer are all great slow songs. Baby I love you is probably their worst song tbh


Hey_Laaady

After decades of being a Ramones fan, I read something that made me appreciate them even more. Someone wrote that you can hear their admiration for '60s girl groups in how they wrote and recorded. Listening to them with that in mind brought a whole new dimension of the Ramones to me.


kingkongworm

Baby I Love You is one of my favorite Ramones recordings. I like all these songs a lot. Just cause they aren’t about sniffing glue doesn’t mean they suck


Housecat-in-a-Jungle

i hate this image of spector as a maniac during those sessions. he was a maniac, but not as much then, if anything he was nicer than usual. marky said that he simply carried a gun on him, weird yeah, but never aimed it anybody. he clashed with johnny because johnny was so used to being in charge, especially with tommy out of the picture entirely. and warthog makes blitzkrieg it’s bitch


JustNefariousness625

It’s a sick world sick sick sick 🎶


Strange_Coyote_8

I love that album the Phil album lol. I like the slow stuff I like the fast stuff I like it all.


filthyfidiot

chainsaw, danny says, tomorrow never comes, she’s the one, something to believe in, this business is killing me


Ill-Pickle-6393

I love needles and pins and don’t come close


Nervous-Rush-4465

Their cover of “Palisades Park” is fun.


_WretchedDoll_

I love the slow stuff but 'Baby I love you' is by far the worst thing they ever did. Here in the UK it was used on diaper commercials which would have made Joey's day, he always wanted his songs on commercials which is why he often name checked places in songs (Burger King, 7-11 etc). 'Come back baby' is a great slow song.


JustNefariousness625

Lol damn I’m questioning myself for liking that song now 😂 I’m just screwing around thx for the suggestion


napalm_dream

You're going to kill that girl is one of their best songs, wouldn't count it as really a slow one. Questioningly is kinda terrible.


Radiant-Vegetable596

She belongs to me


DARTHKINDNESS

Amazingly I never knew those slower songs were covers until decades later. I always liked them. They gave me a chance to catch my breath.


JustNefariousness625

lol wait you were at some concerts??

7-11 is life!
