I think I prefer the Heartbreakers' version, both musically and vocally, although I like the WAY dee dee sings it, I like Johnny Thunders' voice better.

Okay, just a question, everyone keeps talking about Dee Dee having writen this song, but it seems like at some point I was under the impression that he co-wrote it with Richard Hell. Is that corect or not? I love all the different versions of this song floating around.

Well, he did OD after all... OTOH this was a much-covered number and a big hit for The Heartbreakers.

I was wondering why the lyrics said "Hey, is Dee Dee home?" Now I know why, while I'm not surprised Dee Dee wrote this, it makes me like a man who I have infinite respect for even more.
