Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about I Wanna Be Sedated - 2002 Remaster. By Songfacts®.

Joey Ramone came up with the idea for this song after he burned himself with hot water and had to be treated at a hospital. Ramone would inhale steam from a kettle before concerts to help clear his nasal passages.

The chorus, where Ramone sings about "Nothing to do" and "Nowhere to go," was inspired by their 1977-78 tour when they ended up in London around Christmas. It was their first time in the city, but it was pretty much shut down. Joey and Dee Dee stayed in their hotel and watched movies.

For Johnny Ramone's guitar solo, he plays the same note 65 times in a row. Very punk.
