Tommy Ramone : (4)

" ‘Rockaway Beach’ is a great song, and so is ‘Listen to My Heart.’ " - Tommy Ramone

" Most of the people who are given these Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame things sell millions of records, so it’s kind of like a trophy for them. But for the Ramones, it really was a symbolic gesture of, ‘Yes, you guys are special and are important to rock n’ roll.’ So in that sense, the Roll Hall of Fame served its purpose. " - Tommy Ramone

" We all started calling ourselves ‘Ramones’ because it was just a fun thing to do. " - Tommy Ramone

" The Ramones are the type of group where it took the world, like, 30 years to catch up with them. Because we were kind of breaking new ground, coming up with new ideas and different concepts which kind of blazed a trail for a whole new music scene, really. " - Tommy Ramone
