Actually, 'Blitzkrieg' is a myth. The term was originally devised by western media to describe the speedy success of the German invasion of Poland in 1939. However, what they were describing was in fact just the same combined arms tactics that had been simultaneously developed by British and German forces during the final stages of WW 1, coupled with the overwhelming nature of the German forces involved in the campaign. The term was then co-opted by the military establishment in Britain and France in an attempt to explain away their shocking defeat in May/June 1940. That defeat had far more to do with incompetence and panic, particularly on the part of the French establishment, rather than as a result of anything novel the Germans introduced to the battlefield in that year. In fact, the Germans hardly used the term 'blitzkrieg' at all. They preferred to attribute these initial successes to 'National Socialist zeal'.
@@V0liathon Not Really. The Ramones were openly fans of early rock and roll. Rock and Roll Radio was an ode to the genre and they covered several early rock and roll songs (California Sun, Surfin' Bird, Do You Wanna Dance). If you listen to the instrumentation of Blitzkrieg Bop at a slower speed (and imagine it more acoustic) it could almost be mistaken for a Beach Boys song. Not to take anything away from the Ramones, they were great.
Well, that's what Punk was originally. In a time when rock was 20 minute guitar solos, pyrotencnia and psychodelia, the Ramones brought back strip down, energetic, raw, fun and rebelliousness to rock n' roll again. The only difference is that they didn't have musical education, they played twice as fast and agressive and the lyrics had a lot of dark humour. That's pretty punk to me.
I absolutely love this; young black folk appreciating old white punk stuff. I know it sounds obvious and cheesy to say this but it really does feel like you're helping to reach across the racial boundaries that have sadly and unecessarily separated us. Thank you. - random old white dude, 1964 Much respect.
Pet Semetary next! Gotta do the music video for Pet Semetary. RIP to Joey, Johnny, Dee Dee and Tommy. The Ramones may not be the prettiest of bands but they were incredibly influential. Let's get into some of that punk rock music for Halloween.
Blitzkrieg has nothing to do with formation, it's describes the strategy to attack fast and win the war before it becomes a greater conflict. Germans used it to prevent the static warfare that made the WW1 so brutal, long and exhausting. In the praxis it means to enclosure and destroy larger opposing troops before these become material battles and trench warfare.
Thank you for this reply and saving me the time lol 👍 and blitzkrieg is actually a mistake used by a British reporter, the actual German word is bewegungskrieg...
Yes fast. but this meant tanks, before the whole army can catch up with big guns, artillery, pedestrians; Tanks did go until 20 Km from Dunkirk, when they did get the command to halt as I know, and wait for the army? and Czechoslovakia and Poland before, the same tactics.
The Ramones started the "Punk Rock Revolution!!!" They are the inventors of the genre that started in the 70's. Just like Little Richard "The Architect of Rock and Roll" that started in the 50's.
I'm 65....I saw he Ramones 17 times,,,,Also at CGB's. I'm English. You had to be of that age and there.....! Best live band I ever saw....(K...apart fromQueen and |Eddie & The Hit Rods(....But in 1976/79......THIS was MY band!
In school, back the day, there were kids who would sit in the back of the room and draw pictures of war wtih tanks and jet-bombers. I think the Ramones were probably each one of these kids.
When I went to see the " Nitro Circus" they had some dude yelling, 12 dirtbikes jumping, and " Blitzkrieg Bop" pounding, along with my head pounding. I'm never going to another one, but I'll crank the Ramones!
The literal translation of Blitzkrieg is Lightning War and refers to how fast the German army overran everything in its path in the opening days of WW2.
you've hit on my favourite group (after the Beatles of course)..... this is the first song on the first side of the first Ramones album, released in April, 1976, which makes it Ground Zero for what is generally called punk rock... it is possible to argue endlessly about the roots of punk rock, and it didn't come out of nowhere (Velvet Underground, Stooges, New York Dolls), but this song and this album were the start of a whole new genre of music..the name of this song and the words are a spoof of dance songs like the "Lindy Hop"... the Ramones were rejecting both the soft country rock and the pretentious progressive rock of the mid 70's, and were trying to dial things back to the short, energetic, fun songs of the AM radio of the 1960's..very few of their songs are much over 2 minutes long, and most have a lot of dry NYC humour in the lyrics... the Ramones have lots and lots of great songs...they never got radio airplay, but you can't keep a good song down and their songs have become known because other people used them in video games (Tony Hawk) and movies/TV (National Lampoon Vacation, Jimmy Neutron, Billy Madison, Spiderman Homecoming, Spiderman Far From Home, Terminator Genisys, Pet Sematary, School of Rock).... and for all of this they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility despite not selling records .... next, I suggest you watch the official video for "I Wanna Be Sedated", which is their other well known song and a funny video... and then maybe try a song called "Bonzo Goes to Bitburg" which was used in School of Rock, or Pet Sematary which they wrote at the request of Stephen King who is a big fan, and is used in the closing credits of that movie (the Ramones song Sheena is a Punk Rocker is also in the movie... the truck driver is listening to it when something bad happens)
Ramones were formed NYC in 1975... this 1976 song started their career. They established the punk rock genre that sprouted worldwide. Ramones attitude was basically to get up onstage & play with no skills 😂 That's why all their songs r short & simple... Unfortunately, all 4 original members passed away (R.I.P😪) They carried on until their breakup in 1996 after 20 years. They literally had no hits their entire career, but built a huge fanbase that adored them. Other Ramones classics: 'I wanna be sedated' ... 'Havana affair' ... 'We want the airwaves'... 'Judy is a punk'... 'The KKK took my baby away'... 'Rock n roll high school'
Today, Blitzkrieg, or “Blitz” for short carries the thought of a bunch of folks moving in swiftly on something or someone. Like in football for example when they “Blitz” the quarterback.
Blitzkrieg literally means lightening war. It described the German attack plan of rapid tank deployment that overwhelmed defensive formations. What it had to do with this song, your guys is as good as mine, lol
They took the hippie and it of rock and roll . In a time of mega produced band’s like moody blues, yea and Pink Floyd. They said eff it let’s play some rock and roll
I recently discovered your channel and I really dig it! You can absolutely see how much you two love music in general through your videos. Another thing I love about your videos and I hate that it's a thing that I would even notice, but I think it's awesome that you too are being so open-minded with music. I've had black friends that would listen to things outside of their cultural approved genres and they would get clowned by their black peers, getting called things like Uncle Tom and being accused of trying to be white. You guys look a lot younger than me, but I'll tell you that in the '80s and earlier, black people listen to whatever they wanted and nobody thought anything of it and it was just how it was. Somewhere along the way in the late 90s, it became socially acceptable for people in your community to only listen to hip hop and R&B and things like that and it's a real shame because there's so much good music out there! So I want to say that I LOVE how open-minded and into music in general you two are! Very proud to subscribe to you guys. Please keep making more videos, because your vids put a smile on my face 😊
One of the greatest rock & roll bands of all time. They came out during the Disco era and were totally stiff armed by the industry & radio. They werent the prettiest group of guys compared to the "Saturday Night Fever" crowd & in a time when Censorship was relevant having songs like "Blitzkrieg Bop" "Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue" "Beat on the Brat" wasnt going to get you radio play back then, tho it's pretty normal having an outrageous song title like that these days. They were ahead of their time & were totally snubbed. Their popularity exploded only after their retirement in 1996, 20 years after their first album . First ballot Hall of Famers in 2002. Lead singer Joey Ramone passed away in 2001, before their acceptance into the Hall of Fame.
In Ramones speak this song was about their early fans lining up outside the CBGB club in NYC,"shoot em in the back" was originally "their shouting from the back" but it was changed on Dee Dee Ramones suggestion to "Shoot them in the back" because it sounded nastier,the song is actually heavily influenced by the bay City rollers song "Saturday Night" - they wanted a "chant" song
There's a scene where Mom and Dad try to coax the kids into a sing-along to pass time while driving. They start singing that old James Taylor/Carly Simon duet "Mockingbird". The kids, in the back seat, grimace and put on headphones, and this song plays.
Unfortunately, all members of this band are dead. My favorite songs by The Ramones are 1)I Wanna Be Sedated, 2) Psycho-Therapy, and 3) Suzy Is a Headbanger.
the 4 originals are dead..joey johnny dee dee and tommy...the new members happened like this... tommy left to produce music...marky took over drums...marky had substance issues and richie replaced him...then richie was up set about not getting his cut of tshirt sales and left...they brought back a sober marky...dee dee then left to be a rap star and was replaced by CJ...for a two gig moment...richie left the band as stated above and they got clem burke from the band blondie too fill in...he used elvis ramone as his band name
Blitzkrieg "lightning war" featured fast-paced armour-led tank pincer movements followed by fast infantry to surround and overwhelm an enemy quickly, supported by heavy aerial bombardment. Overwhelm your enemy with speed and surround him. The battle is won before your enemy can react.
Shoot em the back now is not how Joey wrote the lyrics. WHen they were practicing with it, Dee Dee changed a lyric to that. THe original line was something pretty tame like the rest of lyrics. Tommy, the drummer, heard the mistake and loved it so they kept it in.
Los RAMONES, fueron la primera banda de ROCK, en hacer estos sonidos, tipo MOTO SIERRA, con 2 Acordes y bajo potente, Sin solos de guitarra, a pesar de que JOHNY, era un buen guitarrista, pero su filosofía No era Mostrar virtuosismo, ni mucho menos, era hacer algo REVOLUCIONARIO, impusieron una MODA que hasta el día de hoy sigue Vigente, como los JEANS ROTOS, y MUY APRETADOS, las Zapatillas CONVERSE, las Chaquetas de cuero negras y por supuesto las Melenas, toda una Actitud Confrontacional, que fue denominada por los Medios como PUNK ROCK !!!....
I don't know about the composition, lol. The beginnings of punk rock right here. Just young punks forming a garage band and playing three chord songs. We loved punk in the day because everyone was sick of corporate arena rock and this brought us back to the original zeitgeist of rock and roll, just straight up middle-finger rebellion. Some of the later punk got political and had a message and a social conscious (ie. The Clash). This is just bottled up energy. Saw them on their 'final tour,' in 1994. Wasn't actually their final tour, lol
Around midnight in a punk-rock bar, any punk band worth its salt would turn the mike to the audience for the audience to shout "Blitzkrieg Bop!"....ummmm....the audience never shouted back "Blitzkrieg Bop!" Let's just say a much less suitable but more common expression (request) was shouted back.
I have never looked into what the song is about but I assumed it was getting pumped for a show. The strait line and the tight wind would be the snake line get in. Could be way off though. The blitzkrieg part to me was about the mosh pits and energy once you got inside. Just going nuts and having fun.
Great reaction.. Do yourself a favour abd check out the Canadain Ramones.. Teenage Head "Picture My Face" "Top Down" "Lucy Potato" "Kissin the Carpet" "Disgusteen" "Infected".. Like the Ramones.. Love THead.. Cheers
I am unapologetic consumer of music react channels. You guys are the first ones I have seen react to the Ramones! Bravo! Try out Devo. Few react to them either.
I am impressed BJ knew something about the German Blitzkrieg type of warfare they unleashed at the start of WWII. It was a real innovation in modern warfare, where they used motorized infantry and armor, supported by the Luftwaffe air units to pierce the allies defenses and encircle them along with disrupting communications and supply lines. It is a big part why they won so often in the first 3 years. They got theirs by invading Russia and the USA entering the war. Thanks for taking a shot at all kinds of Rock, if you have not done War Pigs by Black Sabbath, do the original audio only and not the fan made video which has nothing to do with the song and only distracts from a classic, anti war tune and relevant to this day. Enjoy! 🎸
Loves these guys . even got autographed vinyl album from them ..punk ain't ev ones thing but if you gatta get movn they'll get you going ..there great for doing 🏠 house work
They are a unique group/New Wave they are from England. Here are a few that I like. Rock and Roll High School I What to be Sedated Rockaway Beach I Just Want Something to Do
this song is only 4 simple chords on the guitar: G, C, D, and A. it was used to push the punk ethos that anyone could make music, and that you didn’t need years of training to be a good/popular musician.
also regarding the military message, this song came out just 20 years after WW2 ended, so it was quite fresh in people’s minds. add to that the contemporary conflict of the 70s, the Vietnam War, which had ended less than 1 yr before this came out, and you’ve got the makings of pop culture magic.
Blitzkrieg is actually "Lightning war" and it's describing the fast pace of the German army invading countries in WW2
^this :)
Also an attack in Chess named after it
Blitzkrieg Warfare, brought to you by Meth
@Kenny Duthie also helps when you can stay awake for like 2-3 days straight

The Ramones were considered punk but they were basically doing straight ahead 50s/60s rock and roll at a Blitzkrieg speed (and often, volume).
That's like saying black sabbath was just doing dark rock n roll lol

@@mirceatim3274 Worked fine on France. Panzers and luftwaffe paved the way to infantry. Paris fell quite fast.
Old school punk rock!
Foundations of punk right there RIP Joey
I see them in 198?somting in a free cncert,in Rincón Puerto Rico 🇵🇷on a festibal in the Beach 🤘🔥
I was lucky enough to see the Ramones live & man! 😳🤯talk about a great show?!
The Ramones started the "Punk Rock Revolution!!!" They are the inventors of the genre that started in the 70's. Just like Little Richard "The Architect of Rock and Roll" that started in the 50's.
One of best concerts I ever witnessed!!
1 of the 4 most important punk rock bands of all time

I love the diversity of your musical choices, keep listening to the music 🤟🏻🙏🏻🤟🏻🙏🏻
Blitz is Lightning, Krieg is War in German. The Ramones were the birth of the Punk Rock movement in New York City, along with a few friends at CBGB's.
It's Dee Dee who brought the German into Ramones because he lived in Berlin at first
In school, back the day, there were kids who would sit in the back of the room and draw pictures of war wtih tanks and jet-bombers. I think the Ramones were probably each one of these kids.
I love the Ramones, simple straight ahead stripped down rock.
I do too!!
I like other bands, but yes, they are really cool! Did they start punk rock, ahead of Pistols and Exploited??
@@mirceatim3274 Yes..but in fairness...it started in Detroit with Iggy Pop and the MC5...then went to NYC
then London.
Blitzkrieg is a lightning swift attack
And this was the iconic beginning of the punk rock movement
My favorite is "i want to be sedated" by the ramones
When I went to see the " Nitro Circus" they had some dude yelling, 12 dirtbikes jumping, and " Blitzkrieg Bop" pounding, along with my head pounding. I'm never going to another one, but I'll crank the Ramones!
Blitzkrieg. a tactic formation speed of attack and element of surprise
I saw them live in about 1984
Man they got a lot of energy
Joe Bonamassa live at the Greek Theater "I'll play the blues for you".
Imagie that this song terrified parents when it first was released. It defined Punk Rock in the early 1970s.

Greatest Punk Band Ever !
Blitzkrieg is why they call it a Blitz in Football
You guys know that song was also played in one of the scenes of Spider-Man homecoming, right?
Blitzkreig Bop was a dance!
This album is actually a lot of fun. They were kind of like a stripped down rock version of The Beach Boys. They do a lot of group vocals.
I'm pretty sure this was on the "Vacation" soundtrack album. I was quite young spinning this on my Fisher Price record player
There's a scene where Mom and Dad try to coax the kids into a sing-along to pass time while driving. They start singing that old James Taylor/Carly Simon duet "Mockingbird". The kids, in the back seat, grimace and put on headphones, and this song plays.

Thanks for taking a shot at all kinds of Rock, if you have not done War Pigs by Black Sabbath, do the original audio only and not the fan made video which has nothing to do with the song and only distracts from a classic, anti war tune and relevant to this day. Enjoy! 🎸

Rapid warefare to avoid attrition, or Blitzkrieg,,
R.A.M.O.N.E. S. Ramones. nuff said
this song is only 4 simple chords on the guitar: G, C, D, and A. it was used to push the punk ethos that anyone could make music, and that you didn’t need years of training to be a good/popular musician.
also regarding the military message, this song came out just 20 years after WW2 ended, so it was quite fresh in people’s minds. add to that the contemporary conflict of the 70s, the Vietnam War, which had ended less than 1 yr before this came out, and you’ve got the makings of pop culture magic.
Pogo! Jump up and down.as fast as you can.smash your friends.bean hopping there sweat jump jump
Punk rock anthem
For sure please do Pet Sematary next, my favorite by them!
