- (Original airdate: 07/20/99) Joey and his bandmates played quite the prank on Sex Pistols lead singer, Johnny Rotten. Watch more classic clips @ conanclassic.com.
I miss these guys. Best quote I ever heard about this band was that each album was just long-enough to enjoy at full volume, but short-enough to be over before the police arrive.
A punk rock tradition
Hell yeah 🖤
Loud and Fast
Miss Joeys presence in the world. Feel this.
What a very nice easy going guy!
“We were screaming out for help”…..
Joey was simply amazing and ironic guy.
He wasn't entirely joking. He suffered from a rather severe case of schizophrenia. He actually underwent electroshock therapy when he was young as a result of it. So that's the real reason so many of the Ramones songs dealt with mental health issues. He was just writing what he knew.
Where's the irony?

Loved Joey Ramone. May he Rest In Peace. 🙏🏻
So clever and funny !
@@stephenhensley5631 whats the funny part?
@@benitocamela1667 he was saying Joey was clever and funny
@@benitocamela1667 you didnt think pissing in Jonny Lydons beer was funny???? I love the Sex Pistols but I was rolling!
you know how i know they were a great band i was 18 in 1982 and my dad was a country lovin trucker and i left a ramons cassette in ihis truck by accident. the next day he went on a run and when he came back he knew all the words to the whole album. he asked me if i had any other tapes
Great story!
One time my teenaged neighbors were having a pool party , and their friends' Metal band was playing. When I got home from work , I put on "Rocket To Russia". My Mom asked me if that was my stereo or the band outside , because , she thought , if it WAS the Metal band , she was surprised how much better their second set sounded.
That is so cool. I had the same experience leaving a Bob Marley tape in the 8-track in my fathers van. Found several albums from Bob and Wailers in his collection later. Almost wondered if he'd taken up ganja (he didn't - but it was a fun thought). : th-cam.com/video/msqQY0aF4Y8/w-d-xo.html
Hahaa! Listening to the Ramones instantly makes people cooler somehow.
Driving a truck while listening to the Ramones? No way I'd ever do that. That's how that kid got killed in Pet Sematary!
Plot twist: They aren't dead, just returned to their old planet !
"The Sex Pistols want to fight you" At that time the Sex Pistols probably had a combine weight of about 175 pounds. I am sure it was terrifying news.
I’d wager that to be more than enough weight in streetwise etiquette to knock the shite out of most
@@vecihibostan1743 NYC wasn't anything like it became from the early 90s on. Pretty sure the Ramones would have held their own. 🙄
@shad rokxx Hah! I forgot about that story😂😂😂
R D. 175 lbs truth behind being funny!! I dated girls that weighed more than the sex pistols!
I don't see anything leading me to believe the Sex Pistols thought they would win the fight. Isn't being beaten up, ragged, and without value their entire gimmick?
He always seemed like a genuinely funny guy, like naturally funny. Some people have it and some people don't, and he had it.
I wish Joey was still with us...had such a good heart and spirit...RIP SIR!
we are as far from this interview as they were from Ramones at their peak
Jesus
Bright side: The Ramones' relative anonymity is long dead. Can't think of a "best rock bands" listicle that doesn't have them somewhere near it these days.
You seem like a barrel of laughs
What?
I'm old and so is Conan
The Ramones had more influence in the lives of kids than most parents! For this I am thankful!
The stories that guy could tell. I saw the Ramones on the Lollapalooza tour and they were amazing. It’s where I learned that “1234!” is the best song intro ever conceived. RIP
The Ramones were the absolute pioneers of Punk. I'm glad it's explained that the Sex Pistols came after this band. And if you really want to be amazed this band were Pop / Punk way before that became popular in the 90's / 2000's
Death politician in my mind
The Sex Pistols Nevermind the bollocks was the first punk album. Get over it.
@@nellsonogmore5938And the most relative..
However, MC5 and The Stooges were years before Ramones.
@@nellsonogmore5938false
Sucks they couldn't include the part where The Max Weinberg 7 introduced Joey with "Blitzkrieg Bop."
I remember that. They nailed it!
There's another vid of this uploaded on TH-cam that has the part with them doing blitzkrieg bop
@Justin Raap Try this ... v=wAqvp-p36gg
@@irresistablejewel yeah, just looked it up. It's not much longer, but still very cool for Ramones fans trying to get a bit of fun out of their day :)
If anyone is just a casual Ramones fan, probably it doesn't matter, so it's not going to change your world, but still fun for big Ramones fans :)
20 years! ❤❤ You're a Legend, Joey! We luv u for ever n ever! Long live to the Ramones! 🤘🏻Gabba, gabba! Hey!🤘🏻
Honestly my favorite interview with Joey (the mtv one with lemmy is a close 2nd) it’s just so happy and lighthearted, wish most interviews were like this
Music that still lives on from generation to generation. And what other tee shirt is considered a must have in every closet?
RIP Johnny Joey Dee Dee Tommy
Joey is by far the coolest goofiest dork
Such a chill, nice dude. Can even take Conan ragging on his hair over and over lol I feel it. My hair is long now, I get comments about it all the time, but short hair just isn’t for everyone
Joey was the best he really was hilarious how he said hi to us. Don't forget to enjoy the show.
Joey was one of the best story tellers and all in truth of course.R.I.P. Legend
Called him up in '99 and asked for an interview (I was a kid). He said no but was real nice and I'll always treasure having spoken to him, albeit briefly.
He has a savage sense of humour.
thank God he escaped from the boring mundane nonsense most of us deal with and call it life...
This is so awesome. I've never seen an interview like this with Joey.
Thanks for the music Jeffrey Ross Hyman (May 19, 1951 - April 15, 2001)
he is so respectful
Gonna listen to some ramones tonight. Thanks for the idea Team Coco.
You can hear Conan's accent come out @2:57 when he says "beeyah" lol
in regards to "hoping to settle down": "In 1995, Joey Ramone was diagnosed with lymphoma. He kept his condition private until it was revealed on March 19, 2001,"
Joey deserved the best. I love Joey forever🖤
It's sad hearing him say "I love the life" 😭😭😭
Not really, he was with a different girl everyday.
@@hellboundrubber4448 actually my comment was related to the fact that he's dead
Well he didn't wanna be buried in a pet semetary for a reason, I'm sure joey is happy wherever he may be now in the afterlife
5:03 really hurts in retrospect
I still have my Anthology Album from the Hollywood Amoeba store (RIP) and that was my first purchased album before getting all the albums. 💚
Love the Ramones, Joey was a very humble very nice human being 🙏
"British beer's pretty bad"
You have no idea what reputation US beer has in the world, huh?
British, German, and Belgian beer is the best in the world. What's this guy talking about. 😂
British beer IS bad though. Super flat beer
@@TheRetroManRandySavage You forgot AUSSIE as well!
@@Tmhoop91 Depends on the style. some ales are very low on gas!
@Prick, Scumbag College Heyah! WHERE'S me pastie?
Such a likable guy, gone way too soon…
I was lucky enough to get to see the Rolling Stones at Toad's in New Haven in 1989 it was a $3 cover, when the show started I turned around to look through the crowd and Joey Ramone was standing directly behind me.
Saw them live in around 1980 (took photos too - not too bad!), but had never heard Joey being interviewed until now. The wonders of YT. He seemed like a great bloke.
When VHI was doing their greatest songs of all timeC he was one of the people being interviewed and I recall he gave a great explanation why Pet Sounds was a great Beach Boys album
I got to talk to him on the phone once in 1984. He was funny.
I miss all 4 of them. They were the best. I saw them so many times in 1992 I got tinnitus.
How many times?
@@rumpledxkn at least 9 that’s how many ticket stubs I still have
@@arnieslab That’s some Phish/ Deadhead stuff. 😂. Were they playing the same show? Because I’ve seen a couple different bands twice or more on the same tour and some of them play the same show every night.
@@rumpledxkn yeah they did, it was pretty much the same set as their Loco Live album. It was still a lot of fun though. I got to meet them a couple times and they were really cool and down to earth people.
My hearing is still ruinned from a motorhead concert. So many people my head was in the speaker. All it took was the first note.. I was deaf for weeks... Funny thing nobody even noticed at school i couldn't hear for 2 weeks..
Legends never die.
His voice was gold
🙏 *R.I.P. Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee, & Tommy* 🙏
Joey, the best of them all.
Another three was such a terrible people ehh
But as band they're really cool, love their songs
This is the content I want, not ten re-uploads of how much Ron Howard's daughter looks like Jessica Chastain.
Oh dear - some might think his neck is 'fat' - nope - that's the lymphoma. Yikes. He was in fact VERY modest / charitable to the Sex Pistols btw - in an interview (paraphrasing because it's only been 25-30 years) he said (words to the effect) 'we were doing our sped-up Beach-Boys schtick and the Sex Pistols came along and streamrolled right over us' (while waving hands over his head).
Fun guy - fun group - wish he could still be with us.
I just assume that all those people making fun of the way Joey looks has never heard The Ramones or have heard Joey sing.
Yeah, who cares what he looks like!
Yeah, who cares what he looks like!
@@ShannonLee1956 he looks badass.
The Ramones, a pack of Pall Malls, my Vision Agent Orange, and my cheerleader girlfriend. That was the life. (It was a skateboard. Now you know.)
antifa has given skateboarding a bad name damn them..
Dang, didn't realize he passed in 2001. Seemed like a chill dude.
Sex pistols = all talk
Ramones = all walk
RIP Joey
Great interview with a punk legend. RIP.
notice how funny and relaxed joey was when the members were not there??
Thank you so much, Joey! for giving Mr. Lydon some "poetic justice". Lydon/Rotten to this day loves starting verbal fights with whoever is interviewing him.
Now hes crying that hes broke.
Thats the way Lydon was,always belligerent,intelligent and never conformed to rule.Lydon started the ethic of re writing the rock and roll book and to put in words what he wanted in his songs icluding the genre defining Anarchy in the UK.ramones were just another band singing uninspiring songs imo.
Great guy. Seemed uncomfortable, but did the interview anyway-truly a class act.
OCD
Greatest singer in RocknRoll. Rest in peace my beautiful friend
RIP Joey Ramone
RIP Dee Dee Ramone
RIP Johnny Ramone
RIP Tommy Ramone
you guys were the best
Nunca te fuiste, Joey.
🖤😎
Por siempre Ramones!
Lovely sentiment
I've seen the Ramones early 80's in Europe, in Belgium exactly.
Great gig
The year before i've seen The Stranglers and PIL.
I had seen the Sex Pistols few years before in UK. ( I was 16 in 77)
younger, i was fan of Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, MC5, and The New York Dolls, today as well.
Those days were great.
joey fronting the pistols after John left would have been something
Love you Joey, thanx for everything ❤
"We kinda pissed in the beer."
Wtf is kinda pissed in it, Joey? Haha
Joey splitting hairs on the years and Conan's reaction makes this interview.
amazing to hear a guy talk about the beginning of punk rock and he is also the key pioneer and knew the other key guys well. I mean he's casually mentioning the Sex Pistols as just some buddies.
They all died early.
Joey Ramone (Jeffrey Hyman, † 2001)
Johnny Ramone (John Cummings, † 2004)
Dee Dee Ramone (Douglas Glen Colvin, † 2002)
Tommy Ramone (Tamás Erdélyi, † 2014)
Ray Romano with the short hair! As well as the accent lol
Howard Stern looked so much like him back in the day.
I ran into him 2 times. One time in cbgb's during the day. He was playing pinball. Another time in 99 or 2000 not long before he died. He came into the continental club on 3rd ave between st marks and 9th. He came to see the band that was playing. He had a Biker bodyguard maybe a H.A.
4:50 - OMG! It's Brandon St.Randy
By the time I got into the Ramones Joey had already passed away. Wish I could have seen them...
I love Joey 🥺
I'm 62 and still wear my Converse high-tops, skinny 501's and of course my Ramones t-shirt! I will cry the day it wears out. So funny how their look and sound is so timeless. It was unique and ahead of its time when it came out. I will never forget my time at CGBG's. Man was the East Village the place to be in the day...rot our brains and rebel properly, not the crap these days. The Ramones and Sex Pistols will forever harbor a special place in my brain! Or what's left of it. LOL! ✌🖕🤤🤯🤘🍻👟💊🚬☮
The Ramones and Toto?
I met Joey so many years ago, he was a very sweet guy
He didn't let him finish the story lol okaaaaaay
Smart guy and funny....meshed with conan perfectly.
"I Wanna Live", "Bonzo Goes to Bitzburg" & "I'm Against It."
Joeys like six foot five good luck pistols
6'6 but said to a fan in 1992 that he was 6'8 maybe 6'9 he couldn't stand straight due to scholiosis
There is not even one bad comment about him. Such a great human!
Conan, Kevin Nealon, and Joey Ramone...you just never know what you're going to see on TH-cam.
Pioneers! Loved them.... has anyone ever seem Joey without sunglasses 🕶?
Oh Joey, you are so missed....💜
I don't remember which member said it but - 'We actually write really long songs but play them really fast' is phenomenal lol.
Miss you the ramones ❤
We miss you Joey! Your a king!
Ramones or The Clash?
Ramones: Like
Clash: Comment
Saw them in the glasgow barrowlands. Totally epic 😅
PEOPLE MIGHT KNOW CONAN CAN PLAY THE DRUMS, BUT THEY PROBABLY DONT KNOW HE LENT HIS DRUMS TO DAMON KRUKOWSKI AT HARVARD SO HE COULD GO START THE HIPSTER 80'S BAND GALAXIE 500.
Such a good band.
Joey no ha muerto simplemente regresó a su planeta.
Joey and the boys...one of a kind that come and then go. If, if your lucky and tuned in on one of a kind greats, aka RAMONES...then your life is that much better for it.
GABBA GABBA HEY!
Gabba Gabba Hey !
Craziest thing is an american saying british beer is not that good.
I remember when I first listened to the Remones ,I thought " where's the guitar solos ? "
Best line ever. We were screaming out for help 😂😂
You can now see who Stern was trying to channel throughout his entire career.
Every time I watch Joey being interviewed, I always get the impression that he was a really nice guy.
He was. I met the band in 1990 on their Brain Drain tour. All interesting folks, to say the least. I was most taken aback by actually meeting Johnny. He was much nicer than his perpetual semi-scowl led me to believe.
@@BrutishYetDelightful that's awesome to know..
I always felt he would be silent and non approachable
@@jamesdemetro2145 This I can say about the Ramones - they were REAL. That was not a gimmick, persona, or act. What you saw on the stage was what you saw in the street. My pal and I had just caught their show at Sloss Furnace in Birmingham, Alabama, and a little while afterward we wandered into a Shop-A-Snak near UAB and there they were, with the same sodas, donuts, and Yoo-Hoo we had come after. They didn't even change clothes after the show. They signed the posters we had just ripped down from nearby. I'll never forget it if I live to be 200.
@@BrutishYetDelightful Cool story
Yea, almost like the kind that was too nice, and people probably took advantage of that. That's where his brother came in.
He looks an alien from MIB that for sure Kay and Jay would approach and ask for information.
Not only that, but just look at that one particular Men in Black 2 alien from the mailroom scene.
He looks like sia without the coloured hair
@@ODSTGeneralYT oh, cool! maybe my mind went in that direction unintentionally
@@ODSTGeneralYT Holy crap, he is literally credited as ‘Joey’.
Just Watched "M.I.B." It Today
These guys were so "no frills" and totally brilliant live. It was like a 30 minute Tsunami experience seeing them live. Great band!
I envy you having seen them live. I was never given that opportunity
I'd argue leather pants are a frill.
This world is really miserable without you Joey. You are missed! Gabba Gabba hey!⚡🤘🎸🙏
Rest in power Joey😇👑
NO Joey Ramone...NO Ramones!!
No it’s not
We accept you- one of us.
Full disclosure, and I don't know why (I like them, but I'm not the biggest Ramones fan), I really feel the loss of Joey. This world was diminished when he left us
He was so intelligent. I was blessed to actually meet him a few times due to a drummer friend. He was a super nice guy.
Sure.
intelligent? haha
@@Leto_0 lol you're mean 🤣
fabricated
@@Leto_0 You don't get to be successful in music or any career, especially music, if you're a dipshit. Don't be fooled.
Howard Stern in his mid 80's era totally adopted Joey's look.
Or maybe they’re just both tall Jewish guys from Queens. 🤷♂️
Yes, because Jews from Queens traditionally have lustruous thick locks that they wear real long. Must be something in the water.@@TheRealCaptainFreedom
@@hasselett You sound a little gay, kemosabe.
@@hasselett I legit think I remember reading that Jeffrey Hyman aka Joey Ramone and Howie Stern were cousins.
more like in his early 90's era but yeah
This aired in 99. They said they started the punk scene in 74 - 25 years. Talked about it like it was ancient history. This aired 22 years ago.
they absolutely did not start the punk scene and it only goes to show what fame does to a person for them to assume that kind of responsibility or innovation.
@@BarnacleButtock I thought the same thing - that a few bands would like to argue that claim, but I was distracted by the reference and recording dates.
@@BarnacleButtock - agreed. they started punk like RunDMC started Hip Hop or Nirvana started Grunge.
just more pop cultural engineering tool, it may as well be Bing Crosby sitting there,
I like Ramones songs because they are familiar, Ive heard them over and over again like Christmas music,
Ramones also has a Christmas song, so punk rock like Twisted Sister.
Pere Ubu and The Fall were way earlier and light years ahead of The Ramones 🤷♂️
@@Anonymous-c4p - we can go back further,
The Sonics and Los Saicos were playing punk 15 years before The Fall
