Song of the Week:The Ramones-Pinhead

Genre:Punk Rock

This song was inspired by 1932 horror movie the band saw when they were on tour in Ohio in 1976. The movie was called "Freaks," and the band saw it in an art house thearer. At the end of the movie, there's a scene where the sideshow freaks rise up and take over, shouting, "We accept you, one of us, Gooble Gooble." This gave The Ramones the idea for their "Gabba Gabba Hey!" chant, which became their trademark phrase and a rallying cry for their fans.
