Joey is fire on that song but honestly the rest of the band takes a back seat in a way that doesn't do them any favors for me. It's pretty okay but not a fire song. "I Can't Give You Anything" though is one of those Ramones pop songs that doesn't do much but is just pure fun and I just love those little blasts of happy minimalist nihilism from the band. If "You Should Never Have Opened that Door" from track 14 of Leave Home was the demo version it would have possibly overturned "Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World" for the same reason. Honestly though I'd say track 11 was collectively possibly the weakest place on all three albums.
