You would get more ad revenue if you put an entire interview in a single video, because people would be able to watch and share it much easier. No one wants to have to share 6 or 7 separate videos for every interview, and no one wants to go through 6 or 7 links if someone does share them.
Only Dee Dee's death was drug-related. Not the other three's. Clem's "In retrospect, I'm still alive and they're all dead" comment sounded a bit cruel and spiteful.
You guys are pathetic. He wasn’t insulting them, he was just saying it wasn’t fun being around them. He then said how great he thought they were. I’ll take Blondie over the Ramones any day. The Ramones were ok but you can’t call Blondie a “sell out” band and ignore the fact that the Ramones sold out to try and get a hit (Baby I Love You). The Ramones also made their albums as quickly and cheaply as possible so they could keep the advance money, which is why most of their albums after EOTC are bad or mediocre. Johnny gave up on having a hit and just saw the Ramones as a job. Johnny also wouldn’t even let the other members dress differently or cut their freaking hair. It’s just not all that interesting to me. And being that angry and miserable all the time, for 20 years is terrible for your health. Tommy actually left the Ramones because he couldn’t handle the abuse and dysfunction.
@@Vichedges Fair enough but I'll only take the original, first-era Blondie over the Ramones any day. They used to be fun but have since become a fairly boring band whose last few releases have been disappointedly lackluster, using many outside songwriters creating mainly safe, pedestrian dance-pop. Not the same band anymore..
Yee, just in case anyone inadvertently implies this, hes not a bad drummer. Technically speaking, Clem is pretty good. Just a different vibe with the Ramones and how fast they played. Different skill he probably wasnt used to.
I've listened to the audio. Clem sounded awesome. The band was just used to playing at breakneck speed at that point and insisted on going even faster. Clem played right on time with the recordings. It actually sounded great, other than Johnny and Joey getting lost trying to slow back down to a listenable pace.
@@eugeneeasthon5906 The Ramones played way, way faster live then on their records. Marky could play kskks with power faster than anyone I have ever heard.
This is true. Aside from having attended a few of their shows in the 80’s & early 90’s. I briefly played with Dee Dee Ramone on his solo project during the Summer of 92. I can confirm each time it was faster and louder!
We know the truth of his five minutes with the Ramones. Clem is a great player. But he was unable to transfer his skills to the requirements of a Ramones’ drummer.
Clem! Legend drummer…you’re the best Clem❣️🙌♥️💥

His view was worth diddly squat, playing in a sold-out pop band
@@zosothezephead837 As well as being in a bland and irrelevant band. Their best days are way behind them. Sad.

@@duffbaker9554 they’re all senior citizens at this point man. It’s amazing they’re still out there doing it at all. Harry has to be in her 70s.
He couldn’t keep up says Joey Ramone

“They’re all dead im still alive” unfortunately damn for that
Oh snap lol Clem forgot about Richie CJ and Marky ramone
I've had multiple dreams about original Ramones still being alive

The Ramones were not the Beatles of their generation; they never approached the Beatles for either technical or creative genius.
They just made better music.
