Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World (and countless Ramones tunes, but TYL,TTW is one of my favourite songs of all-time...)
And good call, Terminal Pharmacy.

SonikJesus 02.19.2008 01:10 AM

Duh, Ramones.

Speaking of them, did they actually have any songs that weren't in 4/4 time?

Besides, any song that is in 4/4 can be started with "1,2,3,4." But I guess you mean album versions.

ZEROpumpkins 02.19.2008 02:23 AM

I doubt it. Ramones were pretty basic musically.

SonikJesus 02.19.2008 03:05 AM

But fucking great.

Dead-Air 02.19.2008 03:08 AM

I won't be the first to say it, but "Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World"

I like Sonic Youth's cover on Hold That Tiger as much as the original too.

ZEROpumpkins 02.21.2008 02:37 AM

I just realised that Sister by Sebadoh starts with a count in. So, yeah.
Sebadoh-Sister.
