i know he is a complete "junkie" but the music counts i spose.
best songs are "chinese rocks" "too much junkie buisiness" and "born to lose"
no rock and roller lived harder than johnny thunders









Exactly, this dude had talent and lived fast (and extremely hard) not like the other pretenders, Sid Vicious couldnt play for turd and is widely regarded as the peron who lived hardest (lies all lies) so he wasnt a true hard and fast rock n roller.bobo the warrior wrote:

yes, chinese rocks was written by dee dee ramone BUT johnny ramone wouldnt let the ramones use it for some time (they did do the song eventually). johnny thunders merely adopted it as his theme tune.Morrissey wrote: FYI Chinese Rocks was written by Dee Dee Ramone...

Never really heard any of his stuff with the heartbreakers (dont suppose they were any relation to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers) but i did buy the first new york dolls album (aptly titled New York Dolls, buy it, its amazin) and i fell in love with Johnny Thunders in particular (not in a gay way)
he is a true legend and will be missed, ever heard the story of him stealin stuff from Dee Dee Ramone, funny as anything
