Everybody Has A Poison Heart - Rock And Roll With The Ramones

Ranked #9,870 in Music, #269,477 overall

Rock and Roll, Baby!

A very short and not at all sweet lens purely because I love this song.

Everybody Has A Poison Heart, by the Ramones. Brilliant!

One of the problems here at places like Squidoo is the fact that you can't just whack up a really simple short lens with a link to the song on Amazon or iTunes and say: "There you go. A great song. Enjoy!"

The Ramones never really did popcorn rock in the way some bands did. They were a much darker group lyrically than anyone else I can immediately think of to even start to compare them too. Certainly in the mainstream music industry. I can imagine all the politically correct rubbish they would get thrown at them today if they were just starting out. Especially the references to stuff like suicide which for some reason everyone seems terrified to even mention, let alone discuss.

Your supposed to hit some sort of minimum word count and I'm not entirely sure what that is on Squidoo which is why I am woffling. I don't want to have to stick up some load of long winded junk about the Ramones in order to let you have a quick listen to one song I happen to love.

So here's the song.

Enjoy!

(And, no. I don't want to be your boyfriend.)

Everybody Has A Poison Heart

The Ramones

I just want to walk right out of this world. I love the Ramones lyrics. Wonderfully black and non of that sickly cloying sentimentality.

Anyone else love the Ramones?

    I listened to the older albums more but this is a cool song too :)

    Glad I'm not the only one who likes it. Their music seems more 'timeless' than a lot on 60's Rock and Roll.

    Thanks for 'liking' it, Staci.

Poison Heart

OK so it really didn't like me trying to publish a lens with only two capsules in it. As I said: these content mills can be pain. So have this as well.

These photos are going to depend on how well tagged people's pictures are. So if they are all rubbish there isn't much I can do about it.

About Me

But you don't have to read this if you don't want to..

...'Cos I really am an incredibly miserable human being who will make you feel like walking right out of this world. If there's a more miserable person on Earth I have yet to meet them. Not that I want to, of course. I am far to miserable to want to spend time with crazy lunatics like humans - give me solitude every time.

Below should be my 5 featured lenses. You can take a look if you like. But you probably won't, as no one ever follows links. Makes me wonder why I put them in sometimes.

Oh, dear. Mutter, grumble, moan... I'm off to bang my head against a brick wall for a while. Have fun.
