Motorhead (Overkill -Live) Kel's First Reaction

[@rubbersole79]

"If you think you're too old to rock, you're right." - Lemmy

[@xerodelacroix5552]

Overkill was also the final song they ever played, and I think that is perfect. It summed up their entire career.

[@aha3885]

Best finish in the history of rock and roll.

[@Northman-from-the-North]

Motörhead are so funny watching live, its like being hit by a locomotive or something. Rip Lemmy Kilmister 👍

[@MrHeavy67]

In Concert in Luleå Sweden Pontushallen, He was in RAGE we stood on the side of highest level Basketballl stadium Lemmy looked up at us pointed with his fingers get down in the front of the stage- he was mad. Big as BEAR, But even a greater HEART than you have. but not strong enough for C

[@marcosviniciusrebellato3520]

Locomotive 👌 it's perfect

[@11DNA11]

A 3 piece band producing a wall of sound.. Everything louder, than everyone else.

[@mickyart]

AH!! Nice... I remember Ian Gillan saying that "Everything louder than everything else" on Deep Purple's "Made in Japan" (I think before "The Mule" song... not sure) Very suitable sentence for Motörhead!! 💀♠️

[@jeepmanxj]

The wall of sound isn't a joke. They are hall hammering into that mid range and it just hits you like a gunshot. Seeing them live was probably one of the most incredible experiences I've had.

[@stephensmith6328]

Saw them at St Albans City Hall 40+ years ago, I swear my ears were bleeding afterwards.

​@@jeepmanxjthey did live gigs where other metal band's played after them,the crowd shouted for them to turn up the volume,as motorhead were so loud

[@andrewlaw]

YES! At long last somebody did Overkill, this video just shows Motorhead at their very best and why they attracted people from all walks of life. Skinheads, punks, rastas, metalheads, granddad's and suits all went to see the mighty Motorhead.

[@TubetakerBHV]

Another funny story about Lemmy: He was a life time Jack Daniels-Coke drinker. Rumours said he downed a bottle of Jack through the day for decades. Not long before his passing his doctor told him to watch out for his nutrion being a bit healthier because of his age and his overall health condition. So he switched to (true story) Wodka-Orange juice. Thats Lemmy.

I really miss Lemmy. One of the nicest guys you could ever meet, and one of the greatest performers of all time. I’m sorry you never got the chance to see Motörhead live, Kel. You would have loved them!

[@ExUSSailor]

The first time I saw Motorhead, I had the privilege of experiencing them in a relatively small club, called The Birch Hill Niteclub, in Old Bridge, NJ. After the openers, I remember watching a roadie put a fresh bottle of Jack, and, two packs of Marlboros next to Lemmy's enormous, battle scarred cabinet. Followed by Lemmy saying, "We are Motorhead. We play Rock 'N' Roll." Then, launching into this song.

[@ExUSSailor]

R.I.P. Fast Eddie, Philthy Animal, and, of course, Lemmy.

[@Misericorde9]

Was this around 2000? I may have been at the same show. Distinctly remember the college kids who were there for the opening acts vanishing from the floor just before the Motörhead fans rolled out from the bar in a wave of weathered black leather.

[@thancrow]

Lemmy would say he just plays rock 'n' roll.

[@mrolsen6987]

[@chrisstratton4569]

Lemmy was unapologetic about his use of speed (and alcohol, and cigarettes). His biography was titled White Line Fever.

[@POWER-LINKS]

And he lived a very full life to 70!!! Longer than many straight people. WASTED days, but no wasted days. lol

[@aha3885]

Is a great book, and a great song. Lemmy was the man.

[@DanJackson1977]

I'm actually making a video right now about Motörhead songs (beyond Ace of Spades) that get overlooked or under appreciated. They've got 40 years worth of music.. and there's a lot of hidden gold there.. with a lot more variation in sound than you'd think. Some great albums to check out songs from .. Another Perfect Day, 1916, Bastards, Overnight Sensation, and Inferno.

[@kurtbarlow9402]

I wish someone would make a video for "Until the End". I envision a bunch of slo-mo shots encompassing the entire 40 years of the band, ending with a shot of Lem looking directly at the cam, a smile and thumbs up, fade to black.

[@gwaaar13]

The world is yours is criminally under appreciated. Born to lose is one of the best songs they ever did.

[@johngriff914]

No Voices in the Sky was always my favorite Motörhead song

[@dazz1566]

This has to be my favourite react video. I love it how you guys show genuine love for this band and track. I got into motörhead at 15 when my friend Adrian (now designer at Orange Amps) played this track to me while he was drumming to it. He had a drum kid in his parent's house. I'm nearly 55 now and this track still gets the pimples down my spine. And I've got huge wharfedale floor standing speakers. And this track booms on it.

"1916" is prove that Lemmy was an awesome songwriter. You can't listen to it, without getting really emotional, it's not possible when you have a heart.

[@angharaddenby3389]

Just a small correction Rich. Phil Taylor was the band's 2nd drummer. The first was Lucas Fox - he played drums on the band's (shelved) album for United Atrtist which later got released (as On Parole) after Bomber.

[@paulkinsella612]

Only just found your channel. Good reaction to my favourite band I have been lucky enough to see Motorhead many times, and have met Lemmy, Phil and Eddie a few times in my dim and distant youth.

[@mickyart]

@@savitrisdisciple That would be a good question to put to MISA!! Maybe she knows, maybe it's "just" the same SPIRIT they both share... one thing I'm sure is if Lemmy reacted to Band-Maid he would, not only love the ladies, but also say it straight and simple "Fuck labels, this is Rock'n'Roll and that's all that matters!"

[@savitrisdisciple]

@@mickyart , just watched this, it's in Japanese, but has subtitles (cc ) BAND-MAID 20200118 J-WAVE - SAPPORO BEER OTOAJITO [English sub/CC available] (MISA Solo Interview). Easy to search on KZbin. It's a good interview, the main thing I liked is that she mentions Paz Lenchantin as a major influence. That made my day as Paz is one of my favourite bassists. Considering the fact Paz has played in Perfect Circle, The Pixies, The Entrance Band and many others, that's a good influence to have. Also a good bit about evolving to a heavier sound, hence the Lemmy vibe for me.

[@mickyart]

​@@savitrisdisciple Heeey!! Just been listening and following with the english subs (thank god for those) and it's a really, really great interview (arigatou gozaimashita, for giving me heads-up for that!!! :-) )... Great to check on her influences, the grunge influence, Smashing Pumpkins, Pixies, Radiohead and even RHCP. She does like/come from a heavy background, maybe Lemmy is not aligned with all the bands she mentioned but there is surely the heavy sound getting her close to power-bass players like Lemmy... and by the way, if you listen to "The Dragon Cries" there are parts of MISA that gets me thinking of another "bass-monster": Geezer Butler ... As for Paz Lenchantin, I already seen somewhere else MISA referencing that name as a major influence... and that get me thinking I should really check Paz out - I used to love The Pixies but I only listened a lot that "Surfer Rosa" album of 1988, and a few songs more but always from those earlier days, so I didn't even knew that Kim Deal was not in Pixies anymore ... so I will check Paz Lenchantin for sure... and also the Mexican band MISA mentions (Ruido Rosa) - I really like to explore these sides of the musicians ... for example: I was never much into Carlos Santana but because of Kanami, I really want to "understand" where Santana left his mark on Kanami's playing (although I already saw Kanami stopping a guitar solo and make a small part of Santana's "Europe" then returning to her own improv solo :-) ) Anyways, again, arigatou gozaimashita for leading me to this great MISA interview!!!

[@alexojeda9048]

This song epitomizes this journey your on Kel. A band connecting with its audience and the listener having that "a-ha" moment after listening to their songs. They never reached to the levels of success that bands like Maiden and Priest did but they were revered by the Metal community for their unwavering commitment to make kick-ass music and not sell out like Metallica did. As a matter of fact Lemmy stated that he made more money writing 2 or 3 songs for Ozzy for No More Tears than he did for all the music he wrote for Motorhead up to that point in 1992. That's fucking shameful in my opinion. Great band, tragic loss. RIP Lemmy! \m/
