Nothing has changed my opinion since

This comment’s probably gonna get buried since this is an old video and all that, but this song has such a strangely unique vibe to it that I don’t really have anything to compare it to, nor can I describe it particularly well, but I’ll do my best. Oftentimes with metal, especially faster stuff like thrash, there’s that urge to kick ass and take names, to drive on forward and see something through the to the end. This feels like the epitome of that “keep going and never stop” mentality. This is the ultimate “finale” song for that. The main character slays the dragon and asks his partner if what they did was worth it, and he simply replies, “Don’t sweat it, get it back to you.”

MOTORHEAD!!!!!! REAL METAL BABY!

[@minnietheminx]

Please someone take me back to 1979 to see these three playing rock n roll together one more time

[@Erny_Module]

In those days, a Motorhead gig was a serious event! Got the tickets, counting down the days.... but LOUD! Not even sound, but pressure, pummelling pressure, beyond sound... after Overkill at the B'ham Odeon, for three days I was totally deaf and felt like I was cocooned in a mattress. Nothing like it before or since. World War 3 in a phone box.

ur so lucky that u were even able to see themmmm. im 24 never got a damn chance lol

[@erwanlm1819]

The way Eddie Clarke does that guitar slide in the beggining that sounds like an angry wardog is so fuckin raw, you can really feel that punk rock attitude in that one... just can't get enough of it.

[@Perebynis]

Love the drums! Like pumping pure adrenaline. Philthy was a fantastic drummer.

[@mahjimoh]

The drums blew me away from the first seconds - I don’t know this song or really this band but I love it now

[@michaelminers2612]

In an interview philthy said he was practising the double drums (because other people cheat electronically) and lemmie and Eddie came in and said keep going and joined in

[@michaelminers2612]

And that was how they wrote it apparently

[@johnmikk1495]

I am proud to introduced myself to Motorhead, as this band had such a huge impact on my life, I became a musician, because of them. Love this band! ❤

This is my all time favorite motorhead song.

[@PaulHiggins-p2z]

Im now 61 this has been my music since i was 16

[@whiskeyman9897]

Saw this live in 20 Nov 1979 at the Capitol Theatre, Aberdeen, Scotland. Then they did Ace Up Your Sleeves Tour and came back in 01 Nov 1980 and my ears were buzzing for days afterwards. Pinnacle of my live music life! Speed metal, loud music, no frills, epic lights, bass, guitar and drums! FAULTLESS!

[@markserainidis1058]

Yes great time in music, all that, and the ears buzzing..

[@TRUBEL-T]

Absolutely CULT. Motörhead Army for ever. I played as Motörhead Support in Germany and that I could meet, play and drink with Lemmy is priceless. R.I.P. old friend ♡♤

[@ShunkLunkable]

You may be cool...but you will never be cooler than Lemmy of Motorhead, hair blowing majestically in the breeze, wearing a Motorhead shirt while playing Motorhead in the band Motorhead live cool.

Whilst being a 'Motorhead' because that's the slang term for someone who's on speed.

Lemmy is the only person I think could ever pull off wearing his own band shirts during a gig and not look like a prat.

[@stevebrickshitta870]

One of THE most iconic drum tracks in metal/ Rock, fuck it all, music history. Powerhouse, and I never cease to be amazed by it. It set the tone and changed music forever. POWERHOUSE.

[@richardbarnhurst5789]

I've loved motorhead most of my life, you just can't stop listening to such iconic people, without motorhead they'd be no heavy music

[@josephbland3904]

This song came about from Phil letting off some steam while the rest of the band were taking a break... they were just coming back into the studio and Phil was doing this double base drum footwork & Lemmy & Clarky said don’t stop keep the beat going... & not long after another Smash hit from Motörhead had been written... Goes to show what real talented musicians can create just off the cuff... Amazing!... This was the best Motörhead line up in my opinion... don’t get me wrong I don’t wish to insult any other musicians who joined the band later on but this trio together were the best of Motörhead ... We thank you eternally...

[@robertbolton1425]

Your not wrong this was the best Motorhead line up the way the filthy animal Phil Taylor was on the drums and fast Eddie Clarke with those guitar solos and you can never say enough about LEMMY. 3 Amazing musicians RIP

[@borivojpopovic9488]

Lemmy is THE best rock musician of all times, hands down. He didn't just play it, he's lived it to the bone.
