Motorhead in the 90s in Vienna and I was in the front row, then for 2 days there was a whistling and roaring in my ears. Lemmy was not only a brilliant musician, he was also completely down to earth. A journalist once asked him why he, a world star, still lived in an apartment at sunset. He replied that his local bar was around the corner and he had rent control. The apartment was also full of memories and souvenirs from his fans and friends😆
Saw them first 1981 in Nürnberg at the 4th Summernight Festival playing in the afternoon together with Iron Maiden and the awesome Paul di anno what a great support! This Girl better listening to Justin Timberlake! Grüße aus München 👍🍻😉🍻🤘
This is basically the definition of rock n roll, all wrapped up in one song. Lemmy always said Motorhead was a rock n roll band, not a heavy metal band... I'd say we can safely call it heavy rock.
@@tonykomarytska3934 Countless discussions about it, but the fact remains, Motorhead = Rock and roll, NOT metal. And that's actually a compliment, because if people mistake your rock and roll for metal, you're playing some god damn hard rock and roll.
One of the most important and well-loved hard rock bands of all time. Motörhead were role models for countless bands to come, most famously Metallica. They also gave us 40 glorious years of music without ever losing their fire and quality. Formed in Britain in 1975 by their singer, bassist and undisputed leader Ian Kilmister - better known as Lemmy. He had previously been part of another famous hard rock band, Hawkwind, and sang on their all-time biggest hits "SIlver machine". "Ace of spades" is Motörhead's most famous song, the title track of their fourth album released in 1980, by their most famous lineup, active 1976-82. The other members were guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke and drummer Phil "Philthy Animal Taylor. In 1982, during a US tour, Clarke left Motörhead to form the band Fastway. Careerwise, this was a mistake. Fastway were not a flop, but no way near as successful as Motörhead either. Taylor were in and out of the band a couple of times before being sacked for good in 1992, being too weakened by drugs and alcohol to play the drums properly anymore. In their heyday, the three produced countless classic songs like "Overkill", "Bomber", "We are the road crew", "Iron fist", "No class" and "Motörhead". Lemmy kept the band alive through the good times and the bad, producing great songs to the very end. Among the more famous are "Killed by death", "Hellraiser", "Burner", "Deaf forever", "Orgasmatron", "In the name of tragedy", "Born to raise hell" and the sad war ballad "1916", that was recently covered by Sabaton and met with tremendous acclaim. And Lemmy also kept his integrity to the very end, refusing to accept money for projects he didn't believe in, living the simple but wonderful rock'n'roll life he loved, with parties, girls, playing live and making music. The only battle he couldn't win, was the one against cancer. But he died peacefully, painlessly and with great dignity as an unbroken hero on the 28th of December, 2015. Philthy Animal Taylor had passed away only a month before. The last surviving classic Motörhead member, Fast Eddie Clarke, crossed the rainbow bridge in January 2018. But as long as there is still one fan of hard rock and heavy metal left in this world, Motörhead will never really be gone.
Saw Lemmy in a record store in Dublin, I think it was around 2001. Gave him a nod, didn't have the balls to approach him, wish that I had. Spoke with Mickey Dee one time after a show, he was a down to earth guy.
Lemmy and the guys were fantastic people, I served drinks, spun records and shot the shit with them until dawn in Portland after one of their shows. they were some of he nicest chillest metal heads i ever knew.
I first saw them twice in 1993. They were loud. But after their 1999 concert in Copenhagen my ears were ringing for a full week. I still have that T-shirt. _"Everything Louder than Everyone Else"_
@@alansmith8195 I'm usually very careful not to blame music artists for what happens to the spectators, but in your (and my brother's) case I'm ready to expect a connection. Still, I'm sure we were all well aware of the sound level in advance, and we went to the concert by free will anyway - and probably don't regret it. My brother certainly didn't regret a moment. _"We are Motörhead and we play rock'n'roll...!!!"_ 🎶🤘🎸
Motörhead played loud. I mean _LOUD._ Whenever someone beat them, they played even louder. Broke the world record several times. _"Everything Louder than Everyone Else."_ One of the times I watched them, we were outside in the vestibule when they got on stage. We had to stay in the vestibule for ten minutes before our ears had become accustomed to the insane level of noise coming from inside the concert hall. My ears were ringing for the next full week. I'll never forget that concert.
@@MrDissiuk We didn't. My brother later got perm. Tinnitus. Probably from the loud music on his own stereo at home, but quite possibly from this concert as well.
I was so wrecked when I saw them I ended up on stage with my head inside one of the speaker bins lol, great concert though. Had a massive headache next day though.
First discovered Motorhead back in 1985. Once I saw them in Llandudno in Wales in 2000 (ish) which was near where he grew up and went to school. A lad from the school was attending his first Motorhead concert and Lemmy welcomed him in English and then in Welsh! Fantastic bloke and is sorely missed as are Fast Eddie and Filthy. R. I. P guys
I met Lemmy in the 80s here in the US, it was my friend's 18th birthday and Lemmy reached into the cooler and pulled-out a tallboy beer and gave it to him. My buddy said, "i'm only 18" and Lemmy replied, "you're old enough in England, mate".
Lemmy and the rest of the band you saw in this video are dead. For me it is very sad but when you have a thunderstorm over your hometown you will know that Motörhead are playing a gig in heaven. Enjoy it. 😁🤘🏻 And if you wanna know about the opinion of Lemmy you have to listen to the song Orgasmatron. Orgasmatron was a word out of a movie of Woody Allen but he used it in a funny way. But Lemmy tooked this word for a zynictic way to have a look on this world. And that is the reason why I love Lemmys lyrics. These are true and showing my kind of thinking. He spoke out what I couldn't put into words. The funny way and the serious way. He was a soulmate to me.
Not many three pieces make as much noise as these lads - kinda helped by Lemmy playing his bass more like a guitar. Phil went to Eddy Swales School just over the hill from us. Good Derbyshire lad. RIP Phil.
Lemmy liked playing cords, used a pick (love his signature picks myself), and the classic brightness of his Rickenbacker bass all contributed to that “guitar” sound he’s so known for.
This my dear was Motörhead and they played rock 'n roll. None of the people in this video are with us today. When Lemmy died the MotörWorld cried. I saw them live and they were the loudest band ever. Your reaction hearing Lemmy for the first time made me smile.😁♠️🤘🏻
Hard rock at its best. I prefer AC/DC, but Lemmy and Co are superb. I had fun to listen to some live records, they were magnificent. They BLOW your mind off. Ace of Spades may be their most famous, but they have a ton of great songs. Also, Lemmy is - well Lemmy. The greatest kindest rock star who was so ground to the earth. Maybe together with Brian from AC/DC. The stories about and with Lemmy are so many and basically all are true :D
@@favouriteislandgirl If you like to read. He wrote his biografy and that was a very good book about his life in his own words. Lemmy Kilmister was great.
They're not Resting In Peace... I think we all know that, they'll be making so much fkn noise up there, they've probably been kicked out through those Pearly Gates most nights already, LMAO
So, babe, you learned an important fact about the world. "Ace Of Spades" it is. It' s about as fundamental to know of the world as is "Satisfaction", the Mona Lisa, the pyramids, E=mc^2 and many, many things more. In comparison: what the F*ck is hip hop?
@@favouriteislandgirl here is a good reaction recommendation for you. The tune is called "It's Begun To Rain" by Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush. As a side note, Frank is one of "THEE" most underrated guitar players out there. He has been on the scene since the early 1970's. I think you'll really like how he combines a few styles into one song.
Favourite quote from Lemmy "You can't have everything. If you did, where would you put it?"
That was a Steven Wright joke. I would guess it originated with Wright, though, he left out the "If you did" part.
Everywhere?
@@imnotabotrlyimnot interesting to know.

The original and best. Fast Eddie was such an underrated guitarist. I loved his fast bluesy licks and solos.

Love seeing people discover this groundbreaking band. Motörhead influenced so many musicians, the whole world would be poorer without them.
Motorhead never didn't go all out all the time. Lemmy was a legend.
R.I.P. Lemmy. A real rock song. Top tier

Keep in mind that they're a three piece at this point. Lemme is playing rhythm, and co-lead, guitar on the bass while singing.
