"R.A.M.O.N.E.S." is a song first recorded by the British rock band Motörhead on their 1991 album 1916 as a tribute[1] to their friends and contemporaries, the Ramones.

History

The bands were long-standing admirers of each other's work.

Phil Taylor and Würzel
left the band.

The Ramones also performed it on and off until their final show in August 1996 at which

¡Adios Amigos! with C.J. Ramone singing lead vocals and the other one on the Greatest Hits Live with Joey Ramone
singing lead vocals.

The Huntingtons also covered this song on their File Under Ramones album. The Groovie Ghoulies cover the song on the Motorhead tribute album Built for Speed.[5]

"R.A.M.O.N.E.S." was also covered by the Offspring on their performance at Rock in Rio 5 on 14 September 2013.[6] At that show, Marky Ramone (who was the drummer of the Ramones from 1978 to 1983, and again from 1987 to their breakup in 1996) joined them onstage to perform cover versions of "R.A.M.O.N.E.S." and "California Sun".[7]
