Almost 40 years later, I can still see the look of horror on my late father's face. That was enough for me. lol. Motorhead for life
My dad bought the Overkill LP in 1979 and played it to piss off our neighbours.
I watched this on top of the pops when I was a kid, my dad came in and said 'what a fucking row, you call that music? now Glen Campell, thats proper music'. So my teenage daughter was watching a BTS concert on tv the other day and I said 'what a fucking row, you call that music, now Motorhead, thats proper music'
I have Asperger's Syndrome & my dad used to think it was caused by the music I was listening to at one time.
Philip Dalton 🤔😂😂😂😂
Maybe your daughter will keep the tradition alive and say the same thing to her children.
The classic line up! No other band could do this justice.
3 Amigos 😍
There will NEVER be another band like that...
not a band , neither not that sound
otherwise it would be a simple copy
Remember watching this aged 12. Brilliant then. Brilliant now. Lifetime Motorhead fan and the CDs are in the glove box, now and always.
yeah same. I have overkil and on parole. I'm about to buy bomber
RIP Lemmy, Phil, and Fast Eddie Clarke.
Phil's drumset is what all rock kits used to look like back in the glory days! Big huge rack toms and double kick!!! RIP Phil!!!
Well, not all. Bonham could play as fast on one bass drum as Philthy could on two, and generally only had one rack tom.
Not all. Not at all. A small percentage. Stop trying to sound clever.
Lemmy's bass tone is awesome..It sounds like he's playing bass/rhythm guitar at the same time
He is……
Mainstream was and never will be ready for bands like Motorhead. Thx for the legacy.
This was the song that got me into Motorhead and made Lemmy my musical hero - 28 albums later at they still rock! Long Live Motorhead
Me too.
Haha, the audience didn't know what just hit them! This was their second TOTP appearance I believe, they had performed "Louie, Louie" a year earlier and the audience danced a bit but Overkill just had them stand there sheepishly.
In 1979 artists like Village People, Bee Gees, C.Richard or G.Gaynor were dominating in TOTP, although The Police and Blondie were big in the UK too. And of course in december Floyd released "Another Brick in the Wall". But Overkill rules, belongs to every live set!
Lemmy was so young back then and really had a lot of energy!
and a lot less teeth!
Speed is one hell of a drug
One of the BEST bands ever!!!
...and all the stunned and baffled faces around the stage - so great!!! 🤘🤘🤘😆😁
The Masters of rock and roll speed heavy and trash metal... No one can do what MOTORHEAD did
And then there was one...RIP Lemmy and Philthy.
Zauberfl1eger and then there were none...R.I.P Fast Eddie
I watched this at a fellow Punk Rocker's house. Back then, it was very tribal. Punks and heavy rockers didn't get on that well, and there was much division. When this song started, we were laughing at "these heavy rock wankers".
Our bands were the Sex Pistols, Sham 69, Damned, Siouxsie, Angelic Upstarts, SLF etc. You could not go liking a band like Motorhead.
By the time the song had ended, we were no longer saying that. I bought the single, and admitted to heavy rocker mates that it was a great powerful song, just as aggressive as any Punk stuff.
I have since seen Motorhead many times, all over. Including when they had Punk bands as support, (Damned, UK Subs, Anti Nowhere League). I was never a metalhead or a rocker. Stayed Punk, but still love Metallica, Anthrax and Pantera.
Still remember the Motorhead Concert I was at, at the Tophat. All I heard was *EEEEEEEEEEEE!* until I popped my earplugs in, then I heard Lemmy start in with Overkill
Damn, just read the notice about Phil Taylors death, apparently from liver failure but reportedly he had been in bad health for many years. First Würzel and now Philthy Animal Taylor. His relentless energy and overwhelming joy of drumming made "Overkill" the iconic song it is. Saw them live first time on their 1987 tour after Lemmy had rehired Phil and with Würzel and Cambpell on guitars. Phil was true to form and Würzel played like a maniac, my ears were ringing for over a week after the gig.
Farewell Phil, September 21, 1954 - November 11, 2015.
Philthy was an awesome drummer and dude.
thew crowd looked stunned at what they were seeing, like maybe they were expecting a dance band maybe? :-)
No clue about what kind of a lifetime moment they were witnessing right in front of them
@@chadaliath We can only imagine.
They didn't have a fecking clue how to react haha
there is one guy bouncing up and down lol
I love watching the crowds on TOTP when Motorhead are on. Stand there open mouthed 'what the f...
I can be in the lowest of moods, but as soon as I hear this song begin my heart soars with joy..... Motorhead are my cure for depression!
My fav Motorhead track..fuckin awesome group!
2:31 filthy "animal" taylor`s big engines driving those double bass drums!! f**king magic!!
The Golden era of Rock´n Roll🤘 MOTÖRHEAD R.I.P.
From SWEDEN With Love💀
The greatest rock and roll band ever and forever. Greetings from Denmark
All these great rockers in heaven must be having one heck of a gig
even miming Lemmy kicks ass
...for 1979...this really was heavy duty awesome-ness!! 🌼
It still is.
@@pavankumar-ff9bo8zc5y 🌼 VERY TRUE
This has to be the most kickass lineup ever in the history of rock n roll - Lemmy, Phil, Eddie.
My mother wasn't impressed when i turned this up on the radio.just a add, I was 21 when this came out. Still hear it now in 2024.
Never got to see them Live :-\ So many shows I've seen. Missed out on Motorhead. I have so many beanies and Motorhead shirts. Just bad timing :-| They were gods to Me
I was lucky enough to see this lineup of Motorhead with Saxon at Leeds Uni. Still the best lineup by a country mile IMO. RIP all, however 😪
Christ. What a performance.
Motorhead, The Exploited and New Order are some of the best top of the pops performances I've seen 100%
Fast Eddie with an SG, this is real weird.
TOTP was usually mimed, I reckon he just grabbed whatever guitar they had there.
@@nomadnomad9517 yeah, that was going to be my answer too. 9 times out 10 it was completely mimed, the other times it was live vocals.
RIP Lemmy :'(
RIP Lemmy.
A nice man in real life.
With his Jack and Coke in the Rainbow. Would have a drink and a chat with anyone who wanted to. What a guy. No heirs and graces like lot of these stuck up pansy celebrities these days who give not one single shit about their fans.
They are reunited again. RIP Lemmy, Phil and Eddie.
The best formation ever.
@Jan van Bodegraven And I bet they are still kicking ass wherever they are.
Great stuff! I never got to see Motörhead live, but in 1979, when this was recorded I was living in Ladbroke Grove in London and Lemmy was often outside the pub round the corner in Portobello Road. I think it was the Princess Alexandra.
Mind Blowing
no one like them in the last 20 years. History
Classic band! Rest in Peace Fast eddie philty taylor and Lemmy!
ALL MOTÖRHEAD BOYS RIP... MOTÖRHEAD-SOUND FOR EVER...BIG GREETINGS: MARIO P., LUCERNE, SWITZERLAND.............
Hard to believe this was 79
The only way to move like that playing bass is on amphetamine sulphate
Big ol speed lines - Motörhead style;)
Ain’t felt this good for an hour!
When motorhead are in the building
Always have the emergency services at the ready because of exploding head syndrome 🤘🤘
Lemmy looks like he might have had a few snowdrops prior to this recording. :)
love the guitar in this tune.
Lemmie is, as Steve Buchemie say in AirHeads, GOD!
Да успокоит твою душу Господи во царствии Божьем!
MotorheadMonday
pur moment de rock and roll
powerful.
Man, Lemmy was young back then.
classic drum beat...steady all way thro..doesnt change
Here we are fucking boom.
The best drummer of all time
i like the way lemmy " dance"
Drummer is a train... What a solid drummer he was...
Speed metal be damned they were loud,, hard rockers
nice....
The studio audience thinking "wtf ? When are Blondie on ?" 🤣🤣🤣
That audience deserves a lions den!
Fuk .woulda been the shit to be there.!!!!!!!.RIP lemmy.philthy.wurzel...miz ya
Audience stunned🤣
Lemmy a fiver, the name from whence in Hawkwind
The lads shit idol pop tarts. Fantastic!
You know Lemmy would of definitely knocked Jimmy Saville out if he had the chance.
The camera man doesn't like Eddy! Even during his solo the camera shows Lemmy!
TOTP crowd going mental i see!
He never did get his mic height sorted out
Awesome 666
fuck! this is a real overkill!!!!!
Watch at 1.25x speed for some methamphetamine fueled Motörhead
Sounds like Ace of Spades
...fuckin playback...but..what a relic!!!!!!!!!!!
killer
fck top of the pops this is rock
I hear a rhythm guitar, but I don't see one. Please explain.
The exact song you are hearing is a slightly different sounding version of the Overkill single
As it is a studio recording (the band are syncing in this video), the song you hear in this video features lead and rhythm tracks that are both played by Eddie Clarke, and these tracks overlap whenever Eddie starts soloing
In an actual concert, Lemmy's bass would do more to fill the void left by the absence of a second guitarist, and Eddie would strictly play lead
Ah bollocks, cut short
Is it okay if I say that this is seems pretty punk to me?
They don't know good music when they here it
No dancers ?
Where's the rest of it?
Wait... its just first part
mimed
OH, DON'T FORGET THE JOKER.....
lemmy is rock N roll not metal not punk not trash not heavy metal
lemmy thats rock and roll
is this mimed or live?
Mimed.
+MncDssctn 2:35?
_Morgoth_
Also mimed. It sounds exactly like the studio version.
+Ink Black all Top Of The Pops performances were "mimed"/lip-synced
Nacht Schreck I believe the Who and Iron Maiden played live on TOTP.
480p
Its a WTF moment.....
it´s just a fast rock´n roll song
awueboo
1979 NWOBHM nuclear big bang
They were Genius !! ⭐⭐⭐
All dead, all dead.
there only seems to be one headbanger in the audience
@MickeyLove01 Puny my arse.
No it doesn't
@MickeyLove01 Puny???? Thou talketh shite. This walks all over pretty much anything released '"these days".
