Karen O is channeling her own Joey Ramone!\n--\nThis track helped confirm the Ramones’ status as certified gods. The late Joey Ramone later commented on what made the track a punk classic, noting: “‘Sheena Is A Punk Rocker’ first came out as a single. I played it for (Sire Records President) Seymour Stein. He flipped out and said ‘We gotta record that song now.’ It was like back in the ’50s; you’d rush into the studio because you thought you had a hit, then put it right out. To me ‘Sheena’ was the first surf/punk rock/teenage rebellion song.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
