dude the little bends of his knees when he sings gets me everytime. especially knowing that deedee was supposed to be the singer of the ramones initially until they found out he couldn't really sing and play at the same time makes the moment so.... i don't really have words for it. punk fknn rock.
I thought I read where Dee Dee had read a story about a green beret in Vietnam who turned tricks...this song is so vivid....Dee Dee could be so poetic..."then I did what God forbade"---that is such a deep way to say "I killed someone" because it lends a sense of shame to the act. I loved Dee Dee's songs..."Wart Hog" is the best....
@MrChattyO the look that Dee Dee gives Riff Randle in Rock and Roll High School while there all eating pizza is piceless! just thought I'd point that out for all of us who admire Dee Dee!
this just captures that garage band image perfectly i like this era of the band the best they where always cool but they kinda lost it in the mid and late 80s and also the 90s but they still rocked
Great video! Some people have commented here on Joey's "British accent". I don't notice it much in this song, but listen to some of the songs on the Warner / Rhino re-releases, like "I Don't Care" on Rocket to Russia. You'll hear Joey really laying the British accent on heavily. It's very campy. I don't think it was trying to compete with British punk groups, as some have suggested here. I think it was just paying respect to 60's British invasion / pop bands that influenced the Ramones.
yes, I think your right. I got this on VHS from Johnny Ramone through Danny Rey ( we used to trade video and Johnny was a video freak). that was what I was told back then. about 15 years ago now. I stand corrected
Dee Dee wrote this song, he used to try and turn tricks to get drugs back then. He wasn't gay, he was just strung out. This song is about him not being able to pick up old gay dudes.
Junior, are U NOT-informed??... DeeDee the bass player // that was his lifestyle for a while... he "turned tricks" - had sex w/ men for money. the song is a SO out-of-the-Closet "confessional" that your comment is wrong twicely. (( in the end; comments don't kill.. thank G-d!! ))
Originally they pulled off that they were a British punk group but almost immediately after they came clean! lol If you listen to the song "Gabba Gabba" you can hear (the old) queens accent. We all spoke like that here many years ago!
@ShirtLoop ya Solid man i know what your sayin..but like im just tryin to say that all 4 ramones never really called themselves punk..like you said the fans and media did..but them, themselves..never did
Johnny Thunders was forever bumping into Dee Dee when hustling around to score heroin, and he’d always see him in the company of some effeminate-looking middle-age man. So Dee Dee would get embarrassed and say, blushing: “Erm, hi, have you met my uncle?” So, when Johnny saw Dee Dee in some club like the CBGB’s or the Mudd Club, he would shout across the room: “Hey, Dee Dee, where’s your fucking uncle?”. Which would account to one of the reasons why Dee Dee eventually smashed Johnny’s Gibson TV and poured bleach on his clothes in Paris in 1990 while putting together a band with Thunders, Stiv Bators and Vom from Doctor and the Medics called The Whores of Babylon....
@NirvanaInChains95 Indeed. That first album is amazing. I enjoy some of the second album and a lot of Rocket to Russia, but this first album is just all kinds of excellent.
Una canción rotunda,todos espectaculares en lo suyo,pero me parece que aparte de ser el creador de la canción se la roba literalmente,gran perfomance de Dee Dee.
@BONSCOTTROCKS566 no i never said it was wrong,i said it is hard to get people to form cover and tributes bands,i never said it was hard to get people to see you guys,i said try out your bband if you got your band already going on!!what have you got to lose?go with the heart.
@ChampippleD Yep, a lot. But in the very beginning they didn't really improve, even after two months (that was around 1973/1974). :D It's all in "I Slept With Joey Ramone". :D
@BONSCOTTROCKS566 once your feeling is strong feeling doing the right thing go ahead!!the only one that has to feel sure of himself its you.screw what others think.
There is a very popular Ramones live album where the Ramones did just that. They sped the song up and it sounds way better! It's a great song.. (I grew up and live in Queens NY myself and I go to 53'rd street and 3'rd ave in Manhattan all the time..) (lol) So it's home sweet home baby! wooo!.... Yeah! But the prosties are all gone now.. (That's what the song is about btw..)
dee dee did turn tricks but this song is not about him, its about a ex green beret back from vietnam who is trying to turn tricks but no one picks him up so he starts killing people "then i pulled out my razor blade...."
@BONSCOTTROCKS566 remember never show weakness or insecurity.because then i dont want to see you getting off that stage .like o maybe i shouldnt have done it,once people is giving you the boooo attitude,remember its not really good to play in the wrong place with the wrong people.always make sure you play in front of all those kids you know will rock al;ong with you they wouldnt mind,i want to be the first watching your video someday here,
MOMA (Museum Of Modern Art) isn't in a corner it is on 53rd between 5th and 6th avenue in Manhattan. There are just buildings there now, but right now NYC is Disneyland not the seedy place full of prostitution and drugs that was 30 years ago.
This song is supposedly about a gay male prostitution corner in Manhattan which I never got. 3rd ave in the 50`s in probably THE least private place you could EVER pick for that kind of stuff because it is right at the entrance for the 59th street bridge which has tons of traffic. I mean it`s like saying there is a gay male prostitution scene going on in the middle of Times Square. No way no how. The city and cops would never let that happen, it`s too visible. The politicians would freak
The Ramones ain't for little kids! Duff McKagan is a fan of the Ramones. Green Day's a fan of the Ramones. Hell, the Ramones is the best punk rock AND pop punk bands of all time! KICK ASS! KICK ASS! KICK ASS! KICK ASS!
could be before they signed to Sire, they bought the Marshall amps then. There's a cute clip of Dee Dee explaining this in CBGB's interview "we have amplifiers now that could destroy this building". You'll find it somewhere. Whatever, they do sound great here.
Dee Dee's singing, no matter how short, makes this song in my opinion.
Then I did what God forbade....
dude the little bends of his knees when he sings gets me everytime. especially knowing that deedee was supposed to be the singer of the ramones initially until they found out he couldn't really sing and play at the same time makes the moment so.... i don't really have words for it. punk fknn rock.
@@connormorrison441 hey guy!!
this is pure punk rock!!!
Yeah
The sound quality makes it sound like this video is exploding.
that was my exact thought about this version ruclips.net/video/HSGQCMB4C7E/видео.html
I thought I read where Dee Dee had read a story about a green beret in Vietnam who turned tricks...this song is so vivid....Dee Dee could be so poetic..."then I did what God forbade"---that is such a deep way to say "I killed someone" because it lends a sense of shame to the act. I loved Dee Dee's songs..."Wart Hog" is the best....
Wart dog!!!!
So unbelievable. What great footage!!!!!!!!
Dee Dees best song and one of my favourite songs!
Chinese Rocks is pretty good
Joey, Dee Dee, Johnny.... you will never age for me and never die
WHAT ABOUT TOMMY!?!??
@@starrypin Yes!! Tommy, too!! I posted that one before he passed, so thank you for reminding me to add Tommy!! We should NEVER forget them!!
all the ramones are great but this is one of their best definetly
JOEYYYYYYY! LOVE YOU
Damn I love Joeys hair in this video. He looks so lush. Haha and those mile long legs. Love it.
YOU SHOULD LOVE JOEY EVERY WHERE
Apaixonante...recordações.
best song that Dee Dee wrote in my opinion
Ramones best song
The strength of the song comes through in spite of the horrible sound and video quality.
Muuuuuuuuuuuito massa essa música!
May 19, 2010... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOEY RAMONE!! Love you always, R. I. P.
OMG I love Ramones 🤘🤘,DeeDee You will always be remembered ❤️
I was negative sixteen years old when this happened!
now the cops are after me but i proved that I'm no sissy.. so hard!
@MrChattyO the look that Dee Dee gives Riff Randle in Rock and Roll High School while there all eating pizza is piceless! just thought I'd point that out for all of us who admire Dee Dee!
Revolutionary. Period
this just captures that garage band image perfectly i like this era of the band the best they where always cool but they kinda lost it in the mid and late 80s and also the 90s but they still rocked
Dee dee e o cara
@MrPedrolanza good music doesn't need high quality sound to sound good!
Great video! Some people have commented here on Joey's "British accent".

Thank You. Ojalá apareciera el original como el video de Loudmouth.
It don't get more honest than this!
Eu tinha várias fitas cassetes gravadas...até Basf.engraçado lembrar...do radio.
Arty’s loft on 2nd st.
This footage is just the best, innit?
The song's rockin. Don't it make ya feel sick?
53rd & 3rd in this song is in New York.
September 18, 2010... Happy Birthday Dee Dee Ramone. R. I. P.
Fucking awesome! I was 12 years old when this happened!!!!!!
this song is so fucking intense. along with Dee Dee bass fucking.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOMMY RAMONE!!!
January 29
I couldn't agree more. I want the seediness back, the infamous 42nd street strip with the x-rated movie theaters and adult shops.
@DeeDirntDeeDirnt lots of people would call them punk. But all 4 of em said it themselves, they are pure Rock & Roll
Ramones rules!
yes, I think your right. I got this on VHS from Johnny Ramone through Danny Rey ( we used to trade video and Johnny was a video freak). that was what I was told back then. about 15 years ago now. I stand corrected
yes absolutely true
Sounds great but I need a little more distortion.
Johnny never looked like he was ever having any fun at all, he just always looked so serious, like hurry up and get done.
I love the Joey. =3
@IrishDroog yeah I know lol. Joey was very skinny but he had wide hips for some reason. GABBA GABBA HEY!!!!!!!!!! KEEP ROCK PURE
Dee Dee wrote this song, he used to try and turn tricks to get drugs back then. He wasn't gay, he was just strung out. This song is about him not being able to pick up old gay dudes.
Junior, are U NOT-informed??... DeeDee the bass player // that was his lifestyle for a while... he "turned tricks" - had sex w/ men for money.
the song is a SO out-of-the-Closet "confessional" that your comment is wrong twicely.
(( in the end; comments don't kill.. thank G-d!! ))
awesome!
Que buen video
GOD DAMN
Originally they pulled off that they were a British punk group but almost immediately after they came clean! lol If you listen to the song "Gabba Gabba" you can hear (the old) queens accent. We all spoke like that here many years ago!

Great.
best song
1:06 director didn't know who was to sing at that point. Camera is still on Joey, innit?
Punk rock Roots legend ✌️🇧🇷
I’m here for Dee dee
Ha--I knew it! That song's subject matter was too close to the Ramones' song to be a coincidence.
I'm livin' on the Chinese Rocks!
Well. Whatever they are/were, they were great.
100% AMEN!
yeah its true...let's try an forget about it
😍

This song is about Dee Dee's days of prostitution on 53rd and 3rd
Aww, It's kind of sad. I'd pick-up Dee Dee any time lol
@NirvanaInChains95
Indeed. That first album is amazing. I enjoy some of the second album and a lot of Rocket to Russia, but this first album is just all kinds of excellent.
fuckin awesome
Una canción rotunda,todos espectaculares en lo suyo,pero me parece que aparte de ser el creador de la canción se la roba literalmente,gran perfomance de Dee Dee.
Yeaaahhh.
@MrChattyO the funny part is he completely denied that whole story to his death
this is in Lisa Robinson's loft
@BONSCOTTROCKS566 no i never said it was wrong,i said it is hard to get people to form cover and tributes bands,i never said it was hard to get people to see you guys,i said try out your bband if you got your band already going on!!what have you got to lose?go with the heart.
I was like 20 negative years,
In some way it seems like it was recorded yesterday, no beacuse the video quality of course:P
@ChampippleD Yep, a lot. But in the very beginning they didn't really improve, even after two months (that was around 1973/1974). :D It's all in "I Slept With Joey Ramone". :D
@hallbergjonatan Yep, Tommy, too! And Marky! And....Monte!!
Ah, I thought so.
130 decibels, at least. in the fucking RED
@NirvanaInChains95 i kind of wish bonzo goes to bitburg was on the first album
What ever happened to that blue Mosrite?
Great stuff!
Was that one that got stolen? Seems some of their stuff was stolen once. Not sure if I recall the blue Mosrite being among the stolen items or not.
@BONSCOTTROCKS566 once your feeling is strong feeling doing the right thing go ahead!!the only one that has to feel sure of himself its you.screw what others think.
fuckin good
kick ass
YALL JELLY

That's what I told so...
How did you get the chain on your jacket like Johnny's?
@TheLocoHobo Right on!
I WAS A GREEN BERET IN VIETNAM!!!
@TheLocoHobo fuck yes...Fuck Yes
dee dee did turn tricks but this song is not about him, its about a ex green beret back from vietnam who is trying to turn tricks but no one picks him up so he starts killing people "then i pulled out my razor blade...."

@BONSCOTTROCKS566 itll come itllcome to you guys
Ah, that's what I thought.
Um, isn't 53rd & 3rd the location of the Museum of Modern Arts?
The Ramones ain't for little kids!
Duff McKagan is a fan of the Ramones. Green Day's a fan of the Ramones.
Hell, the Ramones is the best punk rock AND pop punk bands of all time!
KICK ASS! KICK ASS! KICK ASS! KICK ASS!
Watch the documentary, they SAY what it's about...(and in Dee Dee's case what it ISN'T ;-) )
It doesn't look like Johnny is using a Marshall here... looks like some sort of combo amp.
could be before they signed to Sire, they bought the Marshall amps then. There's a cute clip of Dee Dee explaining this in CBGB's interview "we have amplifiers now that could destroy this building". You'll find it somewhere. Whatever, they do sound great here.
They rehearsed?
@mofuckinrambo Well they all did like the New York Dolls and were influenced by them. Thats where they get some of thier stage prescence.
