Things are getting kinda tense around Gotham, so what best to put smiles on pusses than dumb Ramones (peace be upon them) tunes. Been a long time (years, probably) since i did a post for this sporadic series, and i think it’s probably not in dispute that the Ramones were fine cover artists. But it turns out not to be so easy to do fine covers of Ramones tunes. Some very good bands did some not very good covers in my wholly subjective opinion. Here’s a small handful that made my cut. Have fun!
Ramones – Out of Time
White Flag – Babysitter
Screeching Weasel – I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend
The Queers – Cretin Hop
Green Day – Blitzkreig Bop
The Offspring – I Wanna Be Sedated
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Sheena is a Punk Rocker
Strokes – Life’s A Gas
L7 – Suzi is a Headbanger
Sonic Youth – Beat on the Brat
Garbage – I Just Wanna Have Something to Do
Ramones – When I Was Young
Ramones – Time Has Come Today
