HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE RAIN?


Summer has ended and Rainy Season has started again! Wooooo! Time to use those ugly umbrellas and jammed jackets/sweaters in your cabinets! It do sucks sometimes when its raining, but we just have to enjoy it (i think hahahaha).
Anyways i would like to feature one of the greatest Cover songs by The Ramones, It is the song "Have you ever seen the rain" from their album ACID-EATERS (Recorded in 1993)" which was entirely composed of cover songs. It was originally written by John Fogerty and was released in 1970 on the album "Pendulum" by Roots Rock Group Creedence Clearwater Revival. This song was really a huge hit! In March 1971, It reached top one on the RPM 100 national album chart in Canada. In the US, it peaked at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart on the same date.


Have you ever seen the rain - Creedence Clearwater Revival
(The Original Version)


Many bands and artists also covered this song, like Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, which this song is included in all of her compilation albums. Johnny Cash, Rod Stewart etc. For me, 
The Ramones really did a nice job in covering the song! They gave it a new,different and unique style. 

Have you ever seen the rain - The Ramones



Have you ever seen the rain (Live in japan 1995) - The Ramones




*Lyrics*

"Have You Ever Seen The Rain"
Someone told me long ago, there's a calm before the storm.
I know, and it's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day.
I know, shinin' down like water.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?

Yesterday, and days before, sun is cold and rain is hard.
I know, been that way for all my time.
'Til forever on it goes through the circle fast and slow,
I know, and it can't stop, I wonder.

I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hope our Band can cover this song too! :D

Hope you enjoyed my Blog post dudes! Gabba Gabba hey!

IM GONNA MISS OUR DATE BECAUSE OF THE RAMONES ( FIRST COMPOSITION)



This is our very first composition, it is entitled "Im gonna miss our date because of The Ramones". A song written by our Friend Mikko "SUPREMO" dizon. This song is about how we are greatly influenced by The Ramones. So, Here it Goes! :D




"IM GONNA MISS OUR DATE BECAUSE OF 


THE RAMONES"



I
Im on our way to our date but I just missed the bus
I got stuck in the 53rd and 3rd street cause we ran out of gas
And the driver is sedated and were moving kinda slow
Im on a rush and I really need to go
Hurry hurry hurry before I go loco!
Rockaway beach on the radio
Rockaway beach on the radio

Chorus
Im gonna miss our date because of the ramones (2x)

II
Finally we got there, we are not on time
But I heard somebody requested blitzkrieg bop on the line
I had to stay and listen for a while , because the ramones is taking my time
Sorry Sorry baby you gotta wait for me
Im a teenage lobotomy
Im a teenage lobotomy

*Repeat chorus*


Bridge:
When I arrive in the restaurant your’e already gone
I asked the waiter and this is what he said
The KKK took your baby away(2x)
