Last year we covered the song Bonzo Goes To Bitburg from the Ramones album Animal Boy. We decided to bring back some of the same lineup from that one (plus a few new joiners) to cover another favourite from that record. This is my goosebumps song, especially that third verse. I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed putting it together.

THANK YOU !!!!

I want Nikola Sarcevic to sing the whole Ramones discography!

[@CapriceDA]

He is amazing in so many ways, so grateful to be able to see millencolin live so often since I live in sweden! They ALWAYS deliver with full energy after this many years

[@brendoharnack]

Thats my dream

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

I would love that too!!!!!!!!!

You just won the Internet with this comment! Laughing so hard, I'm crying and coughing and that only happens watching Frankie Boyle's stand-up.

Easily the best comment. Well done! 🤘

59 year old OG punk - this song is now our theme song. It’s 6:30 - I’m on the back patio looking at my dogs and chickens and the Arizona morning this song 1st song every morning - my wife has stage 4 this is our life song now - thanks Mikey for putting out THE best music and Joey Ramone for changing my life when I was 14. Cannot say enough about how amazing this is!!!!!

[@damianandres]

Ramones son amor. Saludos desde Monte Grande, Buenos Aires! 💙💛💙💛💙

[@kevinanson8557]

Holy freakin' smokes!! This was breathtaking and I immediately felt the happy tears coming on. A year ago when you released Bonzo, I didn't think it could get much better than that, well I was wrong. This song hit all of the major heart chords. I didn't know that I needed this one as much as I did. I had been struggling a bit lately but this served as a reminder that we are not in this daily struggle that is life, alone. This project of Mikey and his Uke struck a note with me from Bonzo and continues to do so with each and every release and I am so grateful for each and every one of you involved. Today, this aging punk's heart grew two sizes. Thank you, Mikey and Crew.

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

It makes me very happy knowing that these songs can shine a little light, and maybe bring a smile to your face. Thank you for all the kind words. Hang in there my friend, we're all in this together! 🙌

[@sebleblondinet18]

HAHA this is funnybecause I feel exactly the same. when bonzo has been out it was my favourite songs and now it is this one. I listened Bonzo everyday for a year and it help a lot with the hard time I had. Thank you to Mikey and his Uke. ❤❤

[@davidsmith8997]

@@MikeyAndHisUke You guys rocked the FUCK out of this song. Easy to cover the Ramones, damn near impossible to get it right. Totally nailed it. Different, but 100% the right spirit. Like SRV covering Jimi. Epic!

[@earthprimescott]

I miss Ramones so much. Twenty five years is a long time. I miss the life where four chord clarity made things alright. Thank you guys for this. I needed it.

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Amen Scott !! I'm really glad you liked it.

[@ricardoiniesta6976]

Me too

[@LongGone77]

you're not alone man. i miss them like crazy

[@thevoiceofreason5589]

Look at the huge smiles on the Farrell sisters; recording this with CJ had to be a dream come true for them, plus great exposure - I had never heard of Yee Loi before this video, but checked them out on KZbin immediately after watching it. They, and this video, are 🔥🔥🔥

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Thanks so much! It was a great group to work with!

[@emilpettersson4509]

It's fun to watch Yee Loi's channel since it very visible how they are improving all the time too

[@susangrimes6451]

I don't know how you surpass everything you've already done... this made me cry. It is so relevant ... just wow! Thank you for the much-needed new song. It is very appreciated. I'm glad Mickey was in this!!! I think that made it all the more bittersweet.

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Thanks Susan. I've been really excited to get this one. Definitely one of my favourites! Glad you liked it 🙌

[@redoz9768]

So awesome of you to include the Farrell sisters in this awesome rendition, they must have been so happy.

[@davegambill824]

42 plus years of being blessed with punk rock in my life. And songs like this keep me going. Thank you for covering 1 of the greatest songs ever written. Well done to all!!!!

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Thank you Dave. One of my all time favs as well ! 🙌

[@andykrahling6057]

I love that Joey's brother is in this...

Chris Creswell rocking the dee dee king shirt ! And Rose channelling those Johnny Ramone vibes amazingly. This was a very very good cover. I loved it!!

[@kevinanson8557]

I'm so glad that someone else noticed and mentioned the Dee Dee King shirt.

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

I loved that he wore that shirt too! It's F,F,F,Funky Man !!!!!!

[@FrontSageBR]

There's nothing to say, this video comes at a time when the world is going through such turmoil, the moment I saw Mickey Leigh's I missed Joey, a simple person who has no idea that his songs were going to be so important to people like us here in Brazil, I grew up listening to Ramones today I'm 45 years old and these songs are important today and at the time we had no idea that it was going to take on that grandeur. Thanks Mikey Congratulations you guys are awesome from all of the video a hug from South America. Hey ho Let's Go

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Thank you very much! That really means a lot to me. Cheers from Canada!

[@jayyilgic3186]

So happy to see CJ involved in this. Breaks my heart hearing these songs again, but what makes it worth it is the effort these people put into the song. Thanx a million Mikey. You fuckin rock dude!!!!

[@gonzalopirotti503]

La puta madre, como te extraño RAMONES!!! Gracias Mikey!!

[@chancemoody8448]

This is just cool to the core. I first listened to this when it first came out. Now revisited tonight and it made me so happy. Those 2 girls are so adorable you can just tell how much they love The Ramones. From the leather jacket to the guitar strap to the looks on their faces. Just a very likable video. Audibly and visually. Perfect Ka-Tet. Thanks.

[@mattbruhn1910]

I love the Ramones, not just their music but what they did for music. I enjoy when people cover the Ramones because they do it because they love the Ramones too or just know they were brilliant. Covers usually never sound right though because no one will ever be as good as Johnny on guitar but damn Rose you come really damn close. I've been playing guitar for over 20 years and I can't play johnny style as well as Rose just did. And as always Mikey, don't ever stop

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Thanks Matt. And I agree, Rose knocked this one outta the park!! 🙌

[@erikdrum4158]

Yes! With YEE LOY 🤘👊

[@valancyfarley8323]

Yee Loi reminds me of when Gilman started in 1987. Kids are the future and they are taking the musical torch and running with it.

[@bluebell7201]

I'm a sibling of yee loi so obviously I'm impressed of when dad showed us this

[@brunogonzalez7901]

[@DarrylBallegeer]

When my big brother introduced me to the Ramones at the ripe old age of 10, I bet he never thought that I'd be sitting somewhere 40 years later fighting cancer and crying my eyes out with a shit eating grin because despite everything going on in my life and the world, their music can still make me smile and hope. Thank you for this.

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Não tem o que dizer, esse vídeo venho em uma hora em que o mundo passa por uma turbulência tão grande, a hora que vi Mickey Leigh's deu uma saudade do Joey, pessoa simples que não faz ideia de que suas musicas iam ser tão importantes para pessoas como nós aqui do Brasil, Cresci escutando Ramones hoje tenho 45 anos e essas musicas hoje são importantes e na época nem faziamos ideia de que isso ia tomar essa grandeza. Obrigado Mikey Parabéns vocês são massa a todos do vídeo um abraço da América do Sul. Hey ho Let´s Go

And the next cover should be Oh, Oh, I Love her so :)

The Ramones! One of the best shows I saw and they opened for the B-52s. Interesting show. Circa 1984

[@michaelr.4878]

I forget her name (but I am familiar with the Ramones covers that she and her sister do on their channel), but the young girl with the Mosrite guitar has Johnny Ramone's 'stage moves' down pat. She nails them. Right down to his posture and the occasional head dip that he started doing after he stopped doing his spins in the early 80s/late 70s. I love seeing young people digging good music.

[@MikeyAndHisUke]

Rose and Matilda did a great job for sure!
