- This might not be the most famous song by the Ramones, but it's certainly my favourite! It's a masterpiece, from start to finish. The melody, the lyrics, the key change, and of course those epic sing along choruses. Was an honour to cover this one with some new, and old friends.

Sweet! Just followed on spotty.
I’m, like, pretty old, and The Ramones are one of my favorite bands, and this cover is quite possibly the best cover I have ever heard of any song ever, ever, ever. Wow. Killed it. Everyone just killed it.
I’m, like, pretty old myself, and I concur with everything you typed.
My back hurts my brain is slow i can't see properly but THE RAMONES MAKE ME FEEL LIKE A TEENAGER AGAIN I SAW THEM IN 1989 HERE IN AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND i was 19 years old and i didn't think that i would survive that show they didn't give you time to breathe between songs i could have died that night but you would have had to use a jack hammer to get the smile off my face FUCKING AWESOME
I’m, like, relatively young, and I happen to disagree.
@@Paul-dw2cl what do you disagree with? Young one
@@heathcornbeef I disagree with this being the best cover song I’ve ever heard. I prefer the original to this version
One of the best line ups for one of the best songs ever.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🙏
Just no
Best line up for this song Joey, Johnny , Dee Dee and Richie
My brain let out happy for the first time in seven years
@@michaelpecukonis5074 you good man?
There's just something about this song, man. I love all the Ramones songs, but this one still gives me the fucking chills just like the first time.
Wow. Ive never came across another human who gets chills just like the first time hearing it. Helmeted. This song hits me hard.
It’s such a feel good song. My favorite by the ramones. I remember hearing this song in School of Rock as a kid and been a Ramones fan ever since.
Cresswell and Sarcevic killed it. Amazing.
Chris cresswell has a great voice.
Canada represent, definitely one of the fastest voices I can recognize on a song
Agreed. Unique voice. Easy to recognize rite away
True but Dexter Holland's voice is 100x better.
@@lauraloyland3165 no one was comparing hahaha
🙌🙌🙌
Karina killing it with the Joey look
Lol for real
yes that was cool af
Right!!♥️Karina is beautiful ❤️... I'll say this much...I miss Joey's singing!! Karina is a beautiful woman 💋💋💋... Ramones foreva!
I concur 😁
Amazing. Nikola is indeed a king to sing.
It would been so much better if only Nikola sang, the guy that sounds like a ten year old boy ruins it.
@@mickeeriksson9784 you mean Mikey? The person who organized the whole thing and runs this channel?
@@constantly-confused5736 if thats the guy with the ten year old emo voice then yes.
@@mickeeriksson9784 Well, you could check, right? Anyway, Mikey's voice is the one with the highest pitch (compared to Chris and Nikola) - but dude: even if there's something you don't like, you could try not to be an asshole about it. :)
By the way: What do you think about the Toy Dolls? th-cam.com/video/qFyRhgCvqaU/w-d-xo.html
This is so damn amazing! Of course Nicola rocks it, but all the others and the mix makes this sound like a freakin' 'jar of flies' !
..and this is meant in a very good way!
Hat's off to all the people that made this thing happen! Grats! Love ya all so much!
I think everyone here remembers the moment when they discovered the magic that is the Ramones. Shortly before they broke up I remember them being pissed that they were being overshadowed by newer punk bands and not getting the credit they deserve. I wish they could only know how much they have influenced all of our lives and how much of a difference they made in the history of rock and roll. This video is proof of the mark they left on all of our lives. I'd say more but I feel my words would only get in the way so I'll leave it at this... GABBA GABBA HEY!
Great comment! Yes - I remember. I Wanna Be Sedated and Beat on the Brat changed my life forever. Same with the DK's - will never forget the first time I heard Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables, sometime around 1984, I think.
I agree!
DIscoverd the Ramones from on Nightflight on USA
1-2-3-4 Forever!!!
@@martymcfly8733 right! the ramones taught more kids how to count than sesame street. Lol
My friend Torkel listens to this song atleast once a day, he calls it BONZOTIME.
Ha !
I like that.
"BONZOTIME' !!!!!!!!!!!!
So do I now. Like to have breakfast.
Chris Creswell just smashes it out of the park on both of the Ramones covers, what a unique voice.
Already the best cover in 2020! At least for me....
Bud Spencer 😎
Thank you 🙏
Agreed. Siempre Ramones!!
Respect.. Thanks... the ramones save my life
I don't think I can put into words how much I love this!
Thank you for the kind words !
@@MikeyAndHisUke I've literally listened to this like 50 times. Thanks for doing this stuff. Its the best thing to come out of quarantine.
Absolute great cover.
I came back to replay this song cover a thousands of times.
Only one thousand??? Haha, nah, good on ya, I have listened that many times as well. Such a great song
i love Nikola Sarcevic voice
Millencolin have been my favorite band since their Tiny Tunes record way back. So cool too see Nikola skating around while singing! Amazing cover!
Me too dude
Here in Argentina for us the Ramones are like superheroes who helped us through their songs to fight day after day against all frustration or negative things in life, they are as great as the Beatles, they gave us a reason to continue believing that it is worth it life with all the good and bad in it. thanks for this beautiful cover hey ho lets go!
Dee Dee says "we are the most famous punk rock band from argentina"
In these strange times, this song was never so necessary.
The best cover in 2020. Incredible, absolutely perfect!
Chris Creswell is another level, unreal voice.
Goosebumps, honestly
🙏Thank you so much
Ramones para sempre...
Saudações do Brasil 🤟🏿
Que arrepio!
Eternamente ❤️
this is the best Ramones song , thanks dee dee you cranked that one out of the park kid
99% sure it's Joey's lyrics and Dee Dee's chord changes, with whichever producer they had at the time (Jean Beavoir or Daniel Rey?) doing the arrangement. :)
Pretty close. Joey and Dee Dee contributed to this one as well as their producer, Jean Beauvoir.
@@e-dawgkittycat2255 I'm quite certain lyrics are Joeys. He's been quoted as saying he wrote it while watching that summit of Reagan visiting the Graves of the SS on TV and then the subsequent conversation. (Or vice versa)
Doesn't matter which one wrote it what matters is it exists HAIL THE MIGHTY MIGHTY RAMONES
Wow how did this one slip through the cracks for me. This is the best cover on Mikey And his Uke, and that is saying a hell of a lot. 10 on 10, holy shit well done.
Chris Cresswell i really love you man, what a beautiful voice
whaaaat a coveeeeeeerr!!! ♥♥♥♥
This legitimately brought a tear to my eye. I miss The Ramones so fucking much.
I still listen to this all the time. So good.
This is one of my favourite songs I ever heard in my life. This is one of the best covers I heard in my life. Im now at 47 and I have heard a lot of songs so far. Thank you guys. Kudos to Nicola & to Karina. Cant write cause im crying. Please never stop. This is such an important song. I wished MxPx would have played it live. But they didnt. Thanks to Jack Black for this great movie & brining songs to all kids out there.
Nikola's voice is so perfect for this, also my favorite Ramones song.
Way late to the party here (thanks a lot TH-cam) but this might be the greatest cover ever. Absolutely floored. Just bought all your songs. Time to go on a Cresswell binge.
Late to the party, but holy crap this has got to be the best version of this song I've ever heard and it was already a favorite. Instantly made it into my top 10.
This is probably the Best Cover of a Ramones song, I've been a Ramones fan since I was 15... and this cover took me back to 1995 when I first listened to the Ramones!
Holy schmoley, still the most popular tune on this channel! Never had a doubt in my mind! Love this song! I took my cousin to the Ramones show 27 years ago, he knew none of their songs before and he flipped out! By the end of 3rd song he was a fan, and still is!!!
Saw the Ramones six Times live on Stage.. Rest in Peace, Hey Ho.. Lets Go...
My favorite Ramones song and a complete banger!
Pure Energy. I remember buying this on a 12 inch release around 1984-85ish. Then it came out on Animal Boy. The 12 inch version was more rockin. The Animal Boy version had a little more key board but it was all a long time ago so perhaps after 35 + years my memory I had faded.
Cresswell kills it❤
He played it also on his acoustic Tour. That was awesome, too.
Back again to hear this awesome creation.
Damn, someone called the cops because y'all absolutely killed it! Best cover yet
Incredible. Everyone absolutely killing it.
Claveee Nikola 🇦🇷🔥
I just keep coming back for more =)
Le doy gracias a los Ramones por hacer feliz a tanta gente alrededor del mundo.
Gracias infinitas.
Saludos desde Monte Grande, Buenos Aires!
this is on my top 5 Ramones songs since the first time i heard it
Only found these today ... made an old (OLD!) punk very happy - especially with the inclusion of Bonzo here. I remember buying it on the good old 45 rpm vinyl when I was a lad. Very different from my usual diet of Crass, Broken Bones, Flux, Discharge - I thought I was going to get arrested by the Anarcho Police! Excellent work!
Thanks Erwin! Glad you liked it.
As someone who had their mind blown as a young punk when I first walked through the doors of CBGBs in the summer of 1976 this version of Bonzo has my seal of approval.
Thank you for the kind words James!
This one wakes up fond memories of being outside at bars, having (too many) drinks, and fun with our beloved ones. Hopefully, we will do that again soon :)
Punk strong through coronavirus times!!!
Amazing. Nikola, perfect for this man! Everyone is. Drum fill@ 3:05 !
Esta es para mí, la mejor canción de los Ramones, y este grupo de personas hacen que se te acelere el corazón y sientas que estás vivo! Larga vida al punk rock!
"Movimento punk nunca há de morrer..."
Tao ta
foda!!!!
JAMAIS
panque vive
Ramones é uma das coisas mais incríveis da história da humanidade
My favorite song ramones
Damn, what an amazing cover. Thank you Mikey for keeping the songs coming during these difficult times.
Absolutely my pleasure! Thank you for diggin' them ! 🙏
I heard this every single day since it came out, best line up ever for the best song ever
Nikola . You are the man. Millencolin forever
Nikola rules !

Greetings from uersfeld near wittlich
My fav song the Ramones by most of my fav punk bands 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
I've listened to this dozens of times now. My favourite singer from the 90's with my favourite singer of the 2010's couldn't fail.
Yes! An underappreciated track, but also one of my favorites since owning Ramones Mania on cassette. Great job with your cover!
I haven't been able to stop listening to this for months!
No reason to stop now James! So glad you like it, thank you !!!!
Larga Vida al Punk Rock !!! Larga Vida a The Ramones !!! Por siempre mis Ramones del alma !!! -
Long Live Punk Rock!!! Long Live The Ramones!!! Forever my Ramones of the soul!!!
My favorite band ever...great cover
Meu Deus do céu isso aí é uma obra prima!

RAMONES FOREVER!
i dont have any words... best!!!!
Great job guys!! Dee Dee would be proud to hear this cover 30 plus yrs later!! #RAMONES4EVER ❤
Thank you Vera! 🙏
#DEEDEE4EVER♥️
I really like these pop songs on Animal Boy (Bonzo, Something to Believe in and She Belongs to Me) and Too Tough to Die (Howling at the Moon, Chasing the Night and Daytime Dilemma). I consider those the best songs the band made after Pleasant Dreams.
Love, love, love, osti!
This version makes me always happy!!!!!!
One of the better covers! Give it to us on Spotify!?
Ask and you shall receive. It's on Spotify now! Thank you very much!
@@MikeyAndHisUke can you put this on Apple Music too please
@@MikeyAndHisUke sooooo siiickk the Ramones are definitely looking down and smiling :). Thanks for this cover Lad's and Lasses :)
@@MikeyAndHisUke Thank you!
@@MikeyAndHisUke how would you guys feel about a Dead Kennedys cover? I’m an amazing back up dancer, like I can do the clap my hands under a kick.
Wooooooow!!! Amazing cover!! Nikola is #1!!!
Going 100 mph, love it!! Besides the Ramones this is the best cover out there!! Sounds Awesome as well!!
I hear this and I miss the Ramones. All gone too early. I was lucky to have seen them play live in 1994 before they split up.
Já vi umas 300x bom demais!
So good, I watched this multiple times. Ramones forever
That was f-ing awesome! Best Ramones cover I've ever heard.
ok, these guys need to cover the whole Ramones discography!!
I'm glad the punk still makes this year alive with this such a kickass collabs across the world!
Can't stop listening to this ... the energy is spot on.
I'm really love Ramones, Offspring and Millencolin. So watching this make may day so better. Cheers from Brazil/Portugal
Tears. Absolutely the best cover of any song, ever.
Wow
What a great cover with many of my youth heroes! Nicola sings better and better! At the 1st „aaahhhh“ my eyes felt onions near by... great! 👍🤘
Best cover ever.
Absolutely incredible. Top notch from start to finish
I always come back to this cover.. and it's soo crispy, so rich, and such a fine example of how a perfect blend of music can bring people together into a smorgasboard of flavor. Just, thank you for making this. And Karina's cosplay: *chef's kiss*
Thanks Chris!
This is so good I've run out of words.
This made my week. Great stuff, thank you.!
Millencolin best band ever since the Ramones! Life on a Plate for life!
Well Mikey, I have to admit that I found out about you and your channel the day this video came out a month ago. Since then I listen tirelessly to all of your covers and this one in particular that I play or watch every day. The line up is so good, the mixing incredible and the track is so full of energy and good vibes that it is almost therapeutic. Thank you so much for everything you do man, it is greatly appreciated. Keep it up and stay safe! Fistbump from France.
Thank you for all the kind words! Fistbump right back at ya from Canada.
I can’t believe the energy this pulls through me. I have watched and listened at least a 100 times and saw the Ramones play it live at least 30 times, just incredible what you all are doing with all of these great artists. Somewhere there is a six foot six inch tall, long black haired spirit with a rarely seen smile and railing his mic stand back and forth and is proud of you all not just for the greatness of this song, but the entire colab jam thing repping great bands across this great, energetic musical spectrum. Again, thank you so much for saving many of us and bringing us the memories and power of the days we all spent thrashing by board, bike, in the pit or other. And whoever downvoted this... are you fucking serious?? Clearly you meant to be on a Fox News clip about the Donald... see ya in the pit!
This is exactly what we needed this year. Amazing cover!!
Pure fun!!! Thnx a lot!
OMG. The sound is so huge. Vocals incredible.Good job everybody !
Not only is this one of my favorite Ramones songs but this cover is absolutely phenomenal. This was my first introduction to your "Mikey and his Uke" series and I had just just gotten sober in probably the hardest year any of us have endured in our lives and was feeling raw as all hell. This version of this song made me feel all of the feels and I wept. I wasn't even totally sure why I was weeping but I know it made me feel hope, seeing everyone together even if it was just through telecom. I am now 1yr and 4days sober and this song still invokes major fees and I have been a fan of this series and look forward to new releases even though I understand that as things open back up to normal(ish) we get less and less of them. I digress, thank you Mikey for all of these amazing jams and all of your hard work to make these videos and all those involved in the process. Love. Love. Love.
Thanks so much for the kind words Kevin. It means a lot!
And this is my favorite Ramones song!
This was such a treat! Thanks for putting this together and amazing song choice
