Tommy & Marky Ramone acceptance speech at Special Merit Awards | GRAMMYs

[@Obrian81]

Tommy: "The fact that the 3 key founding members are not with us.. Is profoundly sad!" Now we lost you Tommy last summer.. Even 100 times more sad! RIP Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee & now Tommy! Marky, Ritchie & C.J. keep the music going!!

[@rocktalks5706]

I LOVE THE FACT THAT TOMMY WAS KIND ENOUGH TO THANK CJ AND RICHIE. THOSE TWO WERE IMPORTANT RAMONES MEMBERS ASWELL DESPITE THE UGLY THINGS MARKY ALWAYS SAY ABOUT THEM.

[@gabbaheygabbahey]

I saw Marky in barcelona and he is a nice guy. so polite , good manners.. he is the best.. of course i kiss his hand....

[@ContinentsCondiments]

Tommy Ramone is a pioneer. Marky Ramone is a class act.

[@samyoung9079]

Rest in peace tommy

[@mackenziepuetz-bateman919]

Tommy's speeches are so thoughtful and then there comes along the rest ramomes, ha ha ha ha ha, Dee Dee especially

[@NorthCascades]

Mackenzie Puetz Dee Dee: "Ya know?"

[@mengao4ever]

My band ever.. Ramones for life!!

[@agonyfire]

the phil spector joke was good

[@Evan42881]

Although the Clash are my fav punk group, the Ramones created it, and i love them.

[@joelawson33]

Dee Dee was a whirlwind hurricane. Haha.

[@cosmeticsandpurseswithevelyn]

There was thousands of Punk Rock groups in the late 70s I was there to see it from the begining 7 bands a night while the Ramones hardly EVER played but hung around most times. I hung out at CBGB 77-82 The Band made themselves and took over the stage at CBGB PUNK ROCK SOUND CREATED ITSELF

[@TimeCelt]

Because it's a lifetime achievement award. I like CJ, but I don't think singing 6 songs in the 90s give you a spot next to the band's founder, or the guy who worked his ass off drumming with them for over 15 years.

[@HisAssholiness]

richie played with em for 5 years , sang backups , wrote songs and changed the bands sound , making it more powerful ... c.j. did like 7 years , sang lead and backups , wrote songs and also brought more power to the sound ... not including their contributions is bullshit ... it's not like one of these deals where there's one original member , cashing in , doing the indian casino / county fair tours , with a bunch of nobody's standing in ... richie and c.j. made a difference

[@tommysmith4757]

2 Amazing Drummers

[@AaronStark1993]

Richie was the bands best drummer. Him and CJ deserved to be there.

[@AStri-zg5xc]

@@AaronStark1993 Marky was the best drummer. Bitchie kinda overstepped himself in the band.

[@pompom7x728]

Great speech from Tommy, Marky was good either 🤩🎼🎸🍺🦋😍🐉🌺READ THE BOOK WRITTEN BY MICKEY LEIGH BY THE WAY. I will never recover from it but it explains an awful lot about the band. 😳📚🤓 Will buy the others too. Never get enough of this incredible band 😜

[@DavyVandenkieboom-hv3tr]

Thanks to you, Tommy and marky

[@therocknrollrats9192]

Thats awesome cheers to the Ramones.

[@CMD151]

Long Live for the Ramones!

[@sonichedgebush]

WEll SAID Marky!! congrats.

[@Horrorypizza]

THE FUCKING BEST BAND EVER.

[@CMD151]

This night was in the same place the 3 1/2 drummers, Tommy, Marky, Richie and Elivis!

[@davidosuna4958]

Chris Elvis was Clem Bulke from Blondie xD

[@cachiruleta]

yes Marky, there won't be the genre we call PUNK ROCK!!!!

[@musicfan1086]

2:03 I love that Tommy Ramone himself thanks all the replacements Marky, Richie and CJ, especially in front of Marky who really discredits CJ and Richie nowadays and hails himself as the Last Ramone, it’s disrespectful and the whole who’s a Ramone thing is silly, they are all members of the band and contributed and apart of the legacy. Plus Tommy himself thanked all the members of the band arguably the person who created the Ramones and who without wouldn’t be a Ramones, it’s sad CJ and Richie don’t get this kind of achievement or credit from the awards and rnr hall of fame.

[@antonioavilafilho8054]

Poxa, não tem ninguém pra postar com legendas? Hermanos, postem com legendas, ramones é grande na Argentina.

[@Zappitello]

Greats!!!

[@LetsGoMetsGo33]

Where's CJ and Richie?

[@AaronStark1993]

They should have been there. It's stupid how they are kind of excluded from the bands history.

[@angelomejia2814]

Richie was there, there is another video that shows him, Mickey, and Linda

[@ohnose4455]

@@angelomejia2814 But he didn't get any award, hope maybe one day both of them will receive this honour retrospectively

[@perdidonomercado]

Why C.Jay Ramone was not there?

[@gustavomr7450]

Aguante los Ramones🤘

[@Stimor]

the wig didnt keep a speech, disappointed :(

[@TheNadium]

yeahh!!!!!!

[@TimeCelt]

You're right, I've rarely listened to adios amigos, think I must have spaced on makin' monsters and cretin family. Humm, I have no clue how I could have forgot 2 others though.

[@Martingreeneyes]

💪

[@enna1913]

Let's face it--Marky makes a fool of himself whenever he opens his mouth.

[@b.a2921]
