Motorhead overkill lyrics
Only way to feel the noise is when it's good and loud
So good I can't believe it, screaming with the crowd
Don't sweat it, we'll get it back to you
Don't sweat it, we'll get it back to you
Overkill, overkill, overkill
On your feet you feel the beat, it goes straight to your spine
Shake your head you must be dead if it don't make you fly
Don't sweat it, we'll get it back to you
Don't sweat it, we'll get it back to you
Overkill, overkill, overkill
Know your body's made to move, ya feel it in your guts
Rock 'n' roll ain't worth the name if it don't make ya strut
Don't sweat it, we'll get it back to you
Don't sweat it, we'll get it back to you
Overkill, overkill, overkill
Songwriters: Edward Alan Clarke / Ian Kilmister / Philip John Taylor

Went straight to the record shop very next day and bought this, closely followed by the album. My eardrums haven't been the same since, One hell of a band.

[@ScottishTeeVee]

I'm with you on the eardrum damage, 45 years of Motörhead and motorbikes = tinnitus 🤣

[@HGSolberg]

Eddie is on fire here. RIP all of them.

[@D47JoyUnited]

totally awesome RIP Lemmy

[@reubster529]

My favorite version from the 1985 birthday show

[@sheelakarsten4679]

Only 3 people in the crowd that realize the gravity of what they are witnessing, everyone else is waiting for the Disco music !!!!!!!

I always think of some coked up dude drivin 100mph down a dark highway at 2 am in an old firebird when I hear this song

Lemmy though was more of an Amphetamine guy.

@@saraivatoledo1842 they actually had disagreements over drug use (Lemmy and the rest of Hawkwind). They weren't so keen on speed, and he wasn't that interested in LSD.

The shortest version of overkill ever, RIP LEMMY, PHIL, EDDIE.

[@JAJNaus-si4hj]

Rock's answer to disco :D

[@markpeters5550]

RIP Lemmy, Philthy, Fast Eddie

[@squiresquiffy3728]

Certainly cleaned the pallet of TOTP viewers!

[@hernancacereshc7645]

RIP Lemmy & Philty Animal. Forever In Our Rock And Roll Hearts. Kilmister Was Unique In Talent And Voice, If Overkill Album Would Released In 1978 I Would Be Happy Because That Was Also A Great 70s Rock Year Of Awesome Albums, Example: Rainbow - Long Live Rock 'N' Roll. Whitesnake - Trouble. Judas Priest - Stained Class. Van Halen Debut Album. AC/DC - Powerage. Black Sabbath - Never Say Die. Led Zeppelin - In Through The Out Door. Journey - Infinity. Queen - Jazz. Toto Debut Album.

I absolutely love this 1:04

[@dodibenabba525]

Never seen the old boy move so much! 😂

[@barryjamesw]

They remixed this for TOTPs!

[@ScottishTeeVee]

At this time, all bands had to go into the BBC sound studios, rerecord their song and then mime to that version of the recording.

[@michaelcrook2583]

I don't think the audience were very well suited

[@sotis1756]

Clarke on an SG am I tripping!?

[@richardharrold9736]

TOTP always used prerecorded tracks, Eddie probably just grabbed whatever guitar came to hand to mime with.

[@user-nr5tj4iv8l]

Волшебная прическа Лемми. Охуенный мужик

[@ScottishTeeVee]

Спасибо, за просмотр и комментарий.

[@leesaunders9102]

They didn't allow for the second and third drum intros. That's not good enough man.

[@georgemourat2939]

No way "best version"... Sorry,no offense..

[@ScottishTeeVee]

Best version, as in best recorded version of this show on KZbin, there are others taken from decades later rebroadcasts, but this was recorded on home video tape 45 years ago.
