The Addams Family Dance to The Ramones’ “Blitzkrieg Bop”

In the spirit of Andrew Sullivan’s Mental Health Break, we give you this: The Addams Family Dancing to The Ramones’ 1976 track, “Blitzkrieg Bop.” For a brief moment, forget the hurricanes, the threat of nuclear war, the fires burning in LA, Montana, Washington, DC and the hearts of white supremacists. Breathe in. Breathe out. And repeat after me. “Hey Ho……Let’s go!”
