The new “Mono Version“ of Blitzkrieg Bop, synced to Arturo’s Loft footage from 1975. “Blitzkrieg Bop“, titled “The Blitzkrieg Bop!!“ on its single release, is a song by American punk rock band Ramones, released in February 1976 as their debut single in the United States. It was the opening track on the band’s self-titled debut album. Blitzkrieg Bop Aey oh, let’s go Aey oh, let’s go Aey oh, let’s go Aey oh, let’s go They’re forming in a straight line They’re goin’ through a tight wind The kids are losin’ their minds The Blitzkrieg bop They’re pilin’ in the back seat They generate steam heat Pulsating to the back beat The Blitzkrieg bop Aey oh, let’s go Shoot ’em in the back now What do they want? I don’t know They’re all revved up and ready to go They’re forming in a straight line They’re goin’ through a tight wind The kids are losin’ their minds The Blitzkrieg bop They’re pilin’ in the back seat They generate steam heat Pulsating to the back beat The Blitzkrieg bop Aey oh, let’s go Shoot ’em in the back now What they want? I don’t know They’re all revved up and ready to go They’re formin’ in a straight line They’re goin’ through a tight wind The kids are losin’ their minds The Blitzkrieg bop They’re pilin’ in the back seat They generate steam heat Pulsating to the back beat The Blitzkrieg bop Aey oh, let’s go Aey oh, let’s go Aey oh, let’s go Aey oh, let’s go annotation Aey oh, let’s go: And another important piece of information, which has been forgotten long ago but never gone, is that these sarcastic kids from the middle-class neighborhood of Forest Hills in the New York City borough of Queens have made the band’s logo to be based on the Seal of the President of the United States, where it is written clearly the first verse of their song ’’The Blitzkrieg bop’’ HEY HO LET’S GO instead of the classic Latin dictum E PLURIBUS UNUM (Out of many, one) in the flying bands above the long wings of the Bald Eagle which is the US National Emblem and of course, their ’’invention’’ was made after the huge success of the song with which they found their way to the glory much too soon at the beginning of their career. The Blitzkrieg bop: Who performed Blitzkrieg? Blitzkrieg Bop — how the Ramones’ big, dumb chant went global. Ramones’ “Blitzkrieg Bop” had been the first Ramones single, released at the start of 1976. Then, and for many years afterwards, the notion that it might become family entertainment was ridiculous.9 Μαΐ 2022 Bop&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Aey oh, let’s go: The Blitzkrieg bop: The Blitzkrieg Bop: What is the meaning of Blitzkrieg Bop? Tommy Ramone said it was the story of the young audience attending a rock concert (“they’re forming in a straight line“, “are losing their minds“, “are shouting in the back now“). Blitzkrieg is a reference to the German World War II tactic blitzkrieg, which means “lightning war“ (fast attack). The iconic logo was inspired by the US presidential seal after Vega took a trip to Washington DC. “I thought, ‘The Great Seal of the President of the United States’ would be perfect for the Ramones, with the eagle holding arrows – to symbolise strength and the aggression that would be used against whomever dares to attack us – and an olive branch, offered to those who want to be friendly,” Vega recalled in an interview with Jim Bessman for his 1993 Ramones book. “But we decided to change it a little bit. Instead of the olive branch, we had an apple tree branch, since the Ramones were American as apple pie. And since Johnny was such a baseball fanatic, we had the eagle hold a baseball bat instead of the arrows.” Johnny Ramone’s guitar style was characterized by fast, aggressive strumming and power chords, rather than intricate solos. It’s widely believed that this was a deliberate choice on his part, as he preferred the raw energy and simplicity of his playing style. There’s no evidence to suggest that his approach was due to shame or an inability to play guitar solos.
