Baby, I love… your T-shirt. Goodbye Ramones
Rock legends, punk gods, leaders in babywear. As the world says goodbye to Tommy Ramone, we look at the band’s visual legacy… alongside Peppa Pig.
Sweaty, hairy, loud. Right up there with Fireman Sam, Peppa Pig and Iggle Piggle, right?
As the music world bids farewell to Tommy Ramone (third from left), the last member of The Ramones, Channel 4 News takes a look at an unlikely part of the punk band’s legacy: kids in rock ‘n’ roll T-shirts. Thank you for your contributions – keep them coming @Channel4News on Twitter.

@Channel4News @benlegrys & why would you want to? But can we ban Harry Stiles from wearing a Ramones t-shirt? Got a bad feeling on this!

Finally, we couldn’t overlook this: the ultimate tribute to Dee Dee, Johnny, Joey and co. It’s the One Direction cushion, inspired by the Ramones’ famous logo.
Hey ho, let’s go.
Hey ho, let’s go.
