  • I love the way Jason does it too. Much better than the original. He comes from love. He is an old soul. I love him!

  • Wow. What a way to neuter that song in a hurry!

  • No no no no, it's spossed to be punk.

  • Wow what a bunch of ignorant fucks, couldn't appreciate good music if it slapped you in the face. Mraz wrecked this shit!!! Major props

  • FUCKING DIE

  • This isn't Jason Mraz???? The real Jason Mraz has a Hat :D

  • BOO!

  • There are thousands of covers of this song out there. BUT most of them sounds just like the original. And Jason's version does NOT, that why it's such a good song. You know you're a good musican when you can make someone else's song to your own.

    Don't say this version is shit or somethig like that. You only say that because you don't like this kind of music.

    If I wouldn't like punk, then i would say that I think the original is shit, but it's not. I would only say that because I don't like it!

  • 951 persons don't know what a cover is.

    dude, for persons wanting to insult. it's another way to perform a song, if you don't like it, please shut up, it is still music. Or maybe you can try do a cover ;)

  • i feel like i'm watching fucking barney. i love jason's voice,but this song was not for him

  • There you go...I'm singing it again ! :))

  • I keep coming back to this video from time to time, I didn't know the original version of the song but Jason's version is just so good (and I had never listened to the Ramones)... To me this cover sounds like a lullaby, and I find it hard not to sing after listening to it :)

    Anyway, thanks for updloading this video !

  • Jason Mraz made this song good.

  • This was a bad choice of a song to cover in this way

  • Guys stop being so punk and just admit this was an awesome cover. Haha if ye do come after me don't burry me in a pet semetary :)

  • I think this is a great cover but bad choice of song genre, Mr. Mraz, the punks are after you.

  • punk to slower one... nice cover.

  • He has a good voice, just wrong choice of song. I love The Ramones. :D

  • When someone can give me a good reason this is bad, elaborated properly, then you can comment.

  • this is just awefull -__-

  • WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! definitive proof that absolutely ZERO talent is required to become a professional musician, worst cover in human history.

  • @decenthypocrite I'd like to see you do better

  • While I appreciate the effort mr. Jason pulls through his work, I think this cover is really bad. Not because of the style shift; I think a different approach to a song has more merit than an exact copy of the original. But this version basically erases everything that made the original so great: the energy, the fun-ness, the joy it brings to me everytime I hear it. This version songs like if Blitzkrieg Bop was about a child's death or something depressing. Respect to the guy tho

  • fucking killed it

    stick to your own shit bitch

  • @dicksteele75 maybe your brain, you retard... this is a good cover!!!

  • @1gatyamadzag No this isn't.

    You probably don't how to use the word retard pretty well, can't you, retard?

  • Nice!!...

  • To me, this is fucking more punk than all those close-minded fanatics trying to define some "punk rules" or whatever and stick to them at all costs. Punk's not dead, but punks are deaf. I listen to melodic hc and post-hc bands and I listen to Jason. Why? Because I believe in their message. Punk is not just a bunch of angry songs and "alternative" clothes, it's much more. It's a state of mind. It's being who you want to be. Jason obviously loves this song and that's more than enough for me.

  • @matzSVK Hell yeah !

  • @matzSVK Punk has never been about angry songs and alternative clothes. It's about rock n roll. It was a genre created to keep the real easy and catchy rock n roll alive. No more endless solos and artistic genious people, but kids playing easy, fast and catchy pop songs. That's what punk was based on, but it changed a lot when the Sex Pistols came along and changed the whole image into anarchy, angryness and mohawks.

  • @juliandereus2 I'm not gonna disagree with you. Yet, many people would - and that's what I'm talking about. But I'm not stepping into any fight about what punk is. To each their own :-) btw I never liked Sex Pistols, I think they were (and still are) just a bunch of posers. Why so many people worship them remains a mystery to me.

  • @matzSVK Johnny Rotten is a fucking sellout but honestly, they were more punk than Jason Mraz at least. this cover really does nothing to bring an original interpretation of the song out which sounds good or remains faithful at all to the Ramones version in any way. you can go on all day about punk being a state of mind, but it has always been about playing hard and fast rock n roll, not singing slow whiny songs on an acoustic guitar.

  • @Lmaox94 I respect your opinion, but as I said before, I'm not gonna step into the "what is punk" discussion again. I'm just gonna say this - what do you mean by "always"? Just like any other genre, punk has evolved since its birth. And I truly believe that it has evolved into something much more than simply music. Look for Greg Graffin's Punk Rock Manifesto on the web and try reading it ;-)

  • @matzSVK

    Nobody suggested that it was about being angry and wearing this or that. Jason Mraz is a corporate sell out. And making music to make a corporation money is everything that punk, and even rock n' roll, is not.

  • @RonnyVain89 And what makes you think Jason Mraz is a corporate sell out? Is your assumption based simply on the fact that he makes money with his music? Have you ever seen him live? Have you ever paid attention to his words? Of all the big pop artists, Jason is one of the few I truly believe in. This guy puts more heart into this music than many so called "underground" artists.

  • Two Words - FUCK and YOU

  • Comment removed

  • sounds like something he would write though, he does everything how it should be done and done didid lol

  • This is fucking shite.

  • Comment removed

  • this isnt a cover this is just jason mraz singing every other song he's ever done but with blitzkrieg bop lyrics

  • why to destroy this song like that

  • He doesn't do the "HEY HO!!" =(

  • Ramones with an acoustic guitar and a gay voice, WHAT THE HELL !?!?!!

  • KILL IT WITH FIRE

  • @sircheasolot Are you honestly that close-minded? Grow up.

  • @snaperdoodles Nope I just think this cover is hideous I respect your opinion as you should respect mine if you think this is good that's what you think but if you take in to consideration what "punk" music is about being raw and crude this is an abomination to the punk genre and the skill which and attitude to which the song blitzkrieg bop was made has been killed by this cover. So I'm not being closed minded I'm just taking every thing into context.

  • This is an abortion compared to the original

  • Fuck you Jason Mraz. Joey would not be happy with this.

  • @milzyman how would you know? closed minded fuck

  • I was really prepared to hate this, but for shits and giggles, I gave it a whirl. It was way better than I anticipated. Great cover!

  • FUCK YOU!!

    FUCKING GAY!!

  • Dear Jason Mraz,

    WHERE HAVE YOUR BALLS GONE?????

  • I've been listening to the Ramones since I was eight, and I still and always love the Ramones, and honestly I actually like this cover. I'm not a big fan of Jason, but I really like how he played it in his style, and that's one thing awesome about covers. Who wants to hear a band cover a song that just sounds like the original? I feel what makes a cover is that when a band does it in there own style. Just like how the Ramones took 50's songs and gave it some juice and that punk rock energy.

  • @Boogieboy138 I like you, my friend C:

  • The Ramones and Jason Mraz both kickass end of story. :)

  • I do like this. However, I don't hear anything "Ramone-esque" in this song. I guess it's just a "this left feels right" thing...

    R.I.P in Joey - you never got the recognition you deserved while you were with us. Though, your landmark on the art of music will always be known, never forgotten and already is and always will be... timeless.

  • u have killed this song :@

  • I like it.

    IMO No one covers the Ramones well.

    Simply because there was only ONE Ramones.

    He did it in his own musical style, put his soul into it, and sang it to the best of his abilities. It's not like he mailed it in. I think that makes it a good tribute to a great band.

    I'm not a "fan" of his either. I heard the I'm yours song around and it's good for what it is. I prefer dif music, but I can see why people like it. He's not a crap artist like so many nowaday.

  • @astrozombies13 Green Day does it very well

  • Absolutely beautiful.

  • What the F#q$, that was good, but strange-btw i bet Joey would've loved this!!

  • wtf? this is a crime!

  • it´s just his style also is a COVER O.o why too many haters? .. THE RAMONES CAN MAKE "I´M YOURS" INTO A PUNK VERSION IF YOU WANT.

  • Jason Mraz should be under arrest for the free muder of the great song Blitzkrieg Bop....

  • Wow.. what a disgrace to a great band

  • Holy cow, look at those fingernails!

  • i love how hes got a video of the ramones thrashing shit up in the background

  • I don't know the original song and I just think he shows how good he can sing once again. I enjoyed hearing it and that is what I find important in a song.

  • Jesus H. Christ. What the FUCK is this SHITE?!

  • "Hey What's Up? I'm Jason Mraz. I'm a consummate musician. I can play two instruments and teenage girls think I'm really cute! I'm a sensitive kind of guy that listen's to girls feelings and I make a great shopping buddy. I'm slightly taller and more masculine than Justin Bieber and slightly more sensitive than Barry Manilow. Now listen as I take a scary song and make it a safe and family-friendly hit for top 40 pop radio! Peace Out!"

  • Jason Mraz, you fagged this song up so much that I hope the ghost of Johnny Ramone comes to you in the middle of the night and takes a giant metaphysical crap on your soul!

  • OMG WHATS THAT FOR A WORKED ON SHIT!!!?

    POOR RAMONES

  • dude this is shitty cover, this guy has a couple of descent tunes but why did he have to fuck with a very awesome song? I dont get it

  • THIS SHIT SUCKS ASS

  • to everyone saying this gay and hes a fag and "this is supposed to be rude and rebel"....rebels dont whine and complain like bitches on youtube.

  • If you want to cover that song here is how it's done:

    watch?v=AflIFi2Dhjo&feature=re­lated

  • Just one word 4 this cover: gay.

  • this is real bullshit O.O

  • yknow whut, i loled at every hate comment here, seriously just because this guy here sings ONE punk song and make his own rendition you all are already hitting on him, what the actual fuck though, its not like he covered all Ramones song or something. ITS MUSIC, ITS ART. LET IT BE. I bet thrs alot of other covers tht sounds really like the original one, BUT THIS GUY HERE, IS TALENTED AND HE'S MAKING HIS OWN VERSION, so why hate? And in fact, he's famous, no point in hating him though LOLOLO..

  • @freshnessbeyond ...

    That's WHY the original is so different, to get rid of stuff like this  !!!

    JM just did not hit the point here, this is just lack-of-taste and nothing more ...

  • I bet he does the song like this, cause he's not able to play downstrokes constantly like Johnny did.

  • Kill yourself Mraz

  • bah

  • WORST. COVER. EVER.

  • Jason. You just dont get it, this truly sucks donkey balls

  • WTF IS THAT?! PLEASE DON'T SCREW WITH PUNK ROCK!!!!! GO SING YOUR FUCKING GAY SONGS AWAY FROM PUNK ROCK YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE!

  • @endlives Hey! SHUT UP!! I bet you listen to worse music than this. I bet your some loser who listens to pop music. Now that is the worst pop is terrible. Now back to my point. Im not a total punk fan but i still like it. In fact im pretty sure this is most well known punk song. Now you can go back to your little hole and troll all you want, but remember this. Punk was made by and made for people who don't agree with something and want to rebel. So shut up and never to another punk video again.

  • I'm seeing a lot of pretentious Pseudo-"Punks" bitching about Jason Mraz and a bunch of close minded Anti-"Punks" who are offended at the idea of listening to a punk song. Why the hell can't they all just enjoy a good cover of a good song. Yes it's different, but just because it's different doesn't mean it's bad. I love both versions. Why can't you all just extend your music tastes a bit and give it a chance?

  • @SebbyLikesMen Problem, this cover sucks. It sucked the life out a perfectly fine song and turned the pussy dial up to 11.

  • @SebbyLikesMen couldn't have said it better myself

  • @SebbyLikesMen ... well I have extended musical tastes... gave this a chance... great singer!... did not like the cover... sorry!

  • i love ramones version but this is perfect :D

  • Good gawd someone stop him,

    Shoot him in the back NOW

  • o fuck..... :S

  • Everyone is saying how horrible this is. I like it.

  • poor Joey and The Ramones... They dont deserves that

  • Wth pop can't cover punk

  • this cover makes me wanna boil a bunch of kittens

  • Jason Mraz tiene canciones muy buenas y es un buen musico a mi parecer... pero carajo, que le costó dejar la cancion en paz.

    NO ME GUSTÓ PARA NADA!

  • ramones are awesome but you suck jason mraz

  • wow i love u jk u r such a homosexaul and a freaking malester of music and kids why would u do this little crap

  • ohh shitt... hollyy f... shit! wouldnt you love to find this guy in a mosh pit!!? somebody tell iggy about this... punk needs to be defended from these f...!!

    I´m so saadd to have heard this...

  • SO BAD

  • nice

  • pffff

    

  • Nice fingernails 

  • fuck u idiot !!!

  • Worst, shittiest cover EVER. What a joke.

  • I like ur jason.. but thsi is a ripp-off xD

  • u suck ass

  • What even........

  • Hey, this is actually pretty cool. Ramones fans; chill. Seriously, just chill.

  • At 3:42 did I just hear him say 'And they're going through THE tight-wind'? Omfg.

  • what a homo, dont mess with punk! if your gona do it at least do it right and dont touch the ramones because they achieved waymore than this quieer

  • way to fuck up the song....

  • Its so shit wow. I hope Jason Mraz burns in hell.

  • Really??!! You wanna sing it like that?

    Ramones are punk man - like first punk ever

    And you sing it like the word isn't invented yet but you do that...

  • Its a cover first of all, it does sound good, its just a change of genre which is better then being mixtapped into rap haha

  • Dont paritcular like the style but I like that hes made it his own not just a straight copy

  • hey, guys, it's a cover, not a remake. he's allowed some artistic license. not to mention the fact that he introduces it as an unlikely cover and that it may not have so much bop, so why be harsh? besides, i thought the song was about having a bad ass time at a concert, not about pissing your pants and hanging out in gutters. it's not as if the lyrics are especially punk rock or anti-establishment yet you act as if he turned an oi polloi song into a nursery rhyme.

  • i used to like you JMraz.. but you really crossed the line this time

  • Comment removed

  • @fsyeah This happens to not be one of them...

  • A BIG FUCKING FUCK YOU FROM ALL THE RAMONES FANS IN THE WORLD

  • Is this a joke? I think Jason Mraz just trolled us all.

  • WHERE THE HELL IS THE HEY HO LET'S GO ?

  • Damn! this guy can turn Slipknot into a country band !!!

  • @cybermanish7 In my opinion, Slipknot IS a country band. At least it's that lame and non-metal :D

  • check out this cover of blitzkrieg bop ;)

    /watch?v=CPhkLzVGPGs

  • the pennywise cover is better mraz eats weiner

    

  • I love it man!!

  • oh cmon,are you serious???

  • This was actually goddamn awesome, Jason did a great rendition, really making a song his own that might be far from what he normally would write. No need to hate. :)

  • "The least likely genre that I would attempt to cover"?

    All wrong. I'm surprised that this was the sperm that survived. How would it have been otherwise? Making Megadeth songs into cello-and-piano ballads?

  • Gay Gay Gay Gay Gay Gay Gay Gay Gay G A Y G A Y G A Y

  • GAAAAAAAYYY DE MERDA!!!!VA TOCA ESSAS MELANCOLIAS Q VC FAZ NA PUTA Q TE PARIUU,RAMONES NÃO É PRA VC SEU PUTO DE MERDA.

  • ye i cud be open minded but man this song is meant to be fast PUCK ROCK MAN! dsnt fit being slow

  • I am open minded, but this is bad!

  • FUCKKKKK!!!! JASON MRAZ!

    MALDITO CAGASTE LA CANCIÓN

    LA PUTA MADRE QUE TE PARIO

  • i didnt miss the like button.. i ment dislike

  • I've seen a lot of people take rock songs and rework them into an acoustic arrangement. And a lot of times it sounds really good. But it doesn't work for every song, and it definitely doesn't work for Blitzkrieg Bop.

  • hahaha i love how all you haters are so pissed off about his cover, go take ur crap somewhere else. b/c he can sing. most likely better then all of you. and so what if you dont like his music. suck it up and shutup b/c his cover is awesome. and thats his style. he sings.. slow, peaceful, and calmly. so get over it (:

  • undo! undo undo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The song is all about being rude and a rebel, not gay and slow

  • @Daantjert4 did you write it? you have no idea what they were thinking while they penned this tune and you have no idea what jason was thinking while performing this version.

  • @Daantjert4 Actually, it's about having a good time at a concert.

  • @Daantjert4 being punk is also about being different and open minded, so why dont you grow the fuck up and accept this as art, which it is. this isnt directed towards just you, its directed towards all the other close minded dumb asses that dont know what punk is about

  • @Daantjert4

    Punk is not about how fast it is.

    Also, where is the gay?

  • @Daantjert4 No actually this song and punk rock as a whole is about being yourself and fighting against those who don't want you to. If Joey was alive today he'd be ashamed to see that his fans have become such closeminded assholes

  • He ruined his song. it should be fast and rebellious, not slow and stupid. He also ruined punk rock

  • @KdogTheReelz Pretty amazing that one guy covering one song can ruin an entire genre of music....

  • no no no no no...please why???????????????

  • He totally raped the spirit of this song

  • too much chords and too much harmonics fpr this song :/

  • Why, just why?

  • omg what a creep

    

  • Cold play meets any lulla bye u ever heard. whats the point? We get it, WE GET IT! u can sing. Now pay homage the right way - quit uaing it as an excuse to musically masterbate yourself...yet again. Treating the guitar like an amusement park...pay homage/respect than walk, idiot walk.

  • vergogna!!! fa schifo! fuck off!!! long live ramones and punk!!

  • GAY

  • Joey would kick him in the teeth...
