Songs
"Danny Says" was written by singer Joey Ramone about the emptiness of life on the road touring, and is one of their better known and more delicate ballads. The "Danny" alluded to in the title is the Ramones' manager, Danny Fields. "The Return of Jackie and Judy" is a follow-up to their well-known early song, "Judy Is a Punk", appearing on Ramones, the band's debut album. The song elaborates on the two characters' lives. "Baby, I Love You" is a cover of a song originally recorded by The Ronettes in 1963, produced by Spector. "This Ain't Havana" is a follow-up to the song "Havana Affair", also on their debut album.
