Hear how UNUSUAL Lemmy sounded at first | Motorhead reaction

[@MetalPilgrim]

What is your favourite vocal line by Lemmy in Motorhead?

[@paulwalsh2344]

GOOD QUESTION !... Apart from just about any line in "Ace Of Spades"... I really love "Base abusers, I see thy greed. I am more fit for glory than any ten of thee" from "Bad Religion and "All the justice in the world is not enough to buy my faith & trust. Don't make that face I won't be pleased . Don't make a sideshow of yourself" from "I Don't Believe A Word" ...

[@YouLoseSir]

My favorite Lemmy line is actually from an interview and not a song. One where he is talking about fans coming up to him. "There's no harm in good manners, they don't cost anything"

[@Blackwave94]

"I really like this jacket but the sleeves are much too long"

[@anunearthlychild8569]

Actually, the entire text from 1916. It's a shame, the song would have belonged on the soundtrack of _All Quiet on the Western Front_ It would have been the perfect end credits. This book was the first thing that popped into my head when I first heard the song.

[@Danimal77]

You should do the same thing with Brian Johnson, comparing his excellent "singing" voice in his band, "Geordie" from 1972 to 1978 to the screaming he would incorporate when he joined AC/DC in 1980. The difference in style is insane. You'd never believe that it was the same singer. Unfortunately, after Flick of the Switch, he never sounded the same again due to irreparably shredding his vocal cords.

[@randywissler9923]

Oh God yes! His cover of House of the rising sun with Geordie sounds nothing like AC/DC Brian Johnson. He had a very nice singing voice in Geordie.

[@Nomed38]

Smoking and drinking whiskey will change your voice to a more raspy sound as I and several singers can attest to.

[@paulwalsh2344]

Yeah but Lemmy also had the trick of aiming his mic down and then threw his head back to allow the awesomeness that is Lemmy to erupt straight from deep down in his diaphragm.

[@Celatra]

@Ace Courage smoking by itself wont rasp your voice as much as lemmy's, but it will damage your vocal folds and lungs, there is no way around that

[@thetwtinthehat9123]

Remember Lemmy also sung on Hawkwind's Silver Machine, theor biggest hit!

[@sturusk3620]

In an interview he said he actually had a weak singing voice and had to really push it which eventually lead to his unique sound.

[@AmericanNationalist852]

Im not a huge Motorhead fan, but I'll never deny that Lemmy is one of the most metal human beings to ever walk this planet

[@hinjurock70]

Rock 'n' roll!

After I watched the "LEMMY"movie I gained alot more respect and interest in him n Motorhead.

[@oliverl.5834]

Always more Motörhead, Pilgrim. \m/

[@ericv7720]

Lemmy was also inspired by early rock n' rollers like Chuck Berry and Little Richard, who used to rough up their voice on occasion. He took it to the next level!

[@JulianHBurchill]

Excellent video, thanks.

[@YogijiClamzananda]

What is Lemmy's secret to the voice... simple.... marlborl reds and jack daniels

[@TheOnemanmoshpit]

Awesome! My favourite KZbin channel covering Motörhead! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@careful...Icarus]

Age,whiskey and decade upon decade on the road are what brought about the changes in his voice. He is one of the VERY few who earned every bit of what status he had while alive. It seems everyone is a fan " from way back " now. Lemmy would've seen thru all of you.

[@Oliver_T_03]

I'd love to experience the alternate reality where Lemmy doesn't rough up his voice. I think there are some songs he wrote that his old voice could ve worked well in. Even if not, it certainly would've given Lemmy a greater level of versatility (not that what he's done isn't good, I love Motorhead)

[@AvB.83]

Buying the "Damage Case" anthology of Lemmy... there were quite some "I didn't expect that" moments, especially in the really old songs.

[@Wagoo]

Abbath does nice Lemmy vocals when he's singing with his Motörhead cover band Bömbers. It's pretty different to his black metal voice in Immortal & his solo band

[@billgrogan7856]

More Motorhead yes please thank you

[@zztop2ful]

Slava from a Polish friend and metal comrade! I really love this '77 alternate version with additional screams ;) \m/

[@johnnyrandom100]

More Head.

[@XxTheAwokenOnexX]

Chris Holmes has a vocal style similar to Lemmy. It is a shame Chris wasted so much time with WASP, and allowed Blackie to hold him back, for if Chris had been given the chance to shine the world would have had 2 Motorhead bands tearing down the stage, and rocking the world. \m/ LEMMY \m/

[@arto2533]

love the guy, but judging by Chris' solo albums we should all be thankful someone who could write decent songs was holding him back.

[@XxTheAwokenOnexX]

@@arto2533 What decent songs are you referring to? WASP were at their best when Chris was on board, and Blackie has never produced an album that comes close to being, as good, as the metal WASP once were. Look, Chris vocals are similar to Lemmy, and if Blackie had not been so wrapped up in himself, we would have seen Chris with a side project that would have resulted in a second Motorhead band for metalheads to head bang to.

[@arto2533]

@@XxTheAwokenOnexX yes, most decent WASP songs are on the first five studio albums and Chris PLAYED on the first four. Doesn't change the fact that Blackie wrote almost all of it, while Chris couldn't write a good song to save his life. No one's been holding him back from becoming "another Motörhead" since 1990 when he first quit WASP.

[@arto2533]

@@XxTheAwokenOnexX and I certainly appreciate this whole internet shtick of rooting for the underappreciated sidekick who got royally screwed over by an evil band leader, and ACTUALLY made the band great once, yet had zero success on their own after leaving or getting kicked out. It comes up in literally every post about WASP/Chris, Whitesnake/John Sykes, Ozzy/Jake E. Lee and a gazillion others I can't think of right now. Hell, I even read a post last week claiming that Dave Ellefson was a HUGE factor in Megadeth's success. Oh well.

[@boataxe4605]

Thankfully,he fixed his voice with booze and cigarettes!

Would love to see you dude different motorhead albums just like how you dissect Judas Priest an iron maiden do a little dissection of Motörhead go into the old guitarist talk about different drummer said he had talked about his talk about his base. How are you Diaz murder1 base and it’s just a phenomenal thing go ahead and also talk about all the albums that that motorhead has talk about him let me evolved over the years how he was addicted to drugs I was addicted to alcohol. I was addicted to women.

Lem had 1 amp in Hawkwind & was plugged into the PA for vocals separate amps was the key & it allowed him to Upgrade to marshalls ,which became warpig which became murder 1 . The Studio mix was messed with ill grant ya that but show me a band that doesnt double up guitars( Motorhead didnt ) then sound tinny on stage as theres no 2nd guitar beefing it up

[@nilshult5115]

The man, the myth, the legend. Lemmy is rock´n´roll personified.

[@vincentryals2478]

Lemmy's voice when he was singing for "Sam Gopal" in the 1960's was very different to how he sounded later on. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4DUoX-rhMRojMk. I don't own any of these records but I believe Lemmy was refered to as Ian Willis when he was in this band???

[@toro5280]

I just found out about itan hour ago. A beautiful song!

[@paulwalsh2344]

OH YEAH just keep drenching us in loads of videos about classic metal bands like Priest, Maiden & Motörhead !

[@Blashkyrk]

He actually made some "clean" songs later on as well, like "I Don't believe a word" from the Overnight Sensation album. That song have some "clean" parts.

[@williamhodges1777]

Motörhead is THE Ultimate Badass Rock and Roll band.... EVER. PERIOD. Sure, I Love Priest, Maiden and all the rest, I grew up on all this incredible music. But Motörhead is in a category all their own.... And it is certainly sacred space that they occupy. Every album, Every song... There simply are NO Motörhead "Filler Tracks" . Each album, each chapter of Motörhead 's long and productive career just keeps getting better with age. Please give us More Motörhead!!! 🤘🏻

There are so many to choose... "You can be a God or a fool: It's your decision" "Black-hearted to the bone, older than The Rolling Stones" "I looked into her eyes, thunder in my heart" But maybe the best has to be: "We're moving like a parallelogram", who uses that in a rock song?? ♠

Brilliant, fun fact Lemmy was thrown out of Hawkwind for taking the wrong drugs lol 😂

The drugs and alcohol will certainly give that time, he just couldnt afford it all before then. Ukraine panhandling for the win.
