Echoing the first post. My kids love the Ramones. They also love Devo 1.0. And the Wiggles, too. I find it better to mix in the real stuff with the kids stuff as opposed to kiddie versions of the real thing. My kids love The Plastic Ono Band just as much as the Little Mermaid soundtrack.
All that said, these kiddie Ramones tunes are crap.

Well, it's for a good cause, at least, but I think my two-year-old will stick with the originals. She's a purist.

God, Blag has to be scraping for cash. This is the worst thing I've ever heard come out of someone's mouth.

Do you think that they got a bunch of kids to actually sing punk, or got a bunch of out of work rockers to huff ballons?
