The BBs used the "do ya do ya do ya do ya" as the chorus, while Bobby Freeman didn't use it until the fade out.Chuck Mangione wrote: Both of their "Do You Wanna Dance?" covers are excellent. Probably better than the original.

A RAMONEservation: Well, I made a few of them for RAMONES WEEK:
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

Me, Marky, SM, and Flex have totally been on the same thought cloud. I've been playing Ramones a whole lot lately.

I listened to about half of Pleasant Dreams this morning and it's not bad at all.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
