Motörhead "Heroes" (David Bowie Cover)

Motörhead to release Under Cöver in September 2017
Covers compilation to include new version of David Bowie’s “Heroes”, (above)
ONE THING Lemmy Kilmister, Phil Campbell and Mikkey Dee liked to do over their years together in Motörhead, was grab a favourite song by another artist and give it a good old fashioned ‘Motörheading’. To run them through the Motörizer if you will. To rock them, roll them and even give them an extra twist and edge.
In celebration of some of those finest moments, the band will release Under Cöver, a collection of some of their best covers, and a collection which will include the previously unreleased version of David Bowie’s timeless classic “Heroes”. Recorded during the Bad Magic sessions in 2015 by Cameron Webb, and was one of the last songs the band recorded together.
“It’s such a great Bowie song, one of his best, and I could only see great things coming out of it from us, and so it proved to be,” says Phil Campbell, “and Lemmy ended up loving our version.”
“He was very, very proud of it,” says Mikkey Dee, “not only because it turned out so well but because it was fun! Which is what projects like this should be - fun!”
To that ethic, the rest of the album contains loud and proud, raucous and raging Rock ‘N’ Roll takes on the likes of “God Save The Queen” (Sex Pistols), “Cat Scratch Fever” (Ted Nugent), “Rockaway Beach,” (The Ramones), Breaking The Law” (Judas Priest) and “Whiplash” (Metallica) which earned the band a Grammy in 2005 for Best Metal Performance.
“We were happy with them at the time and we’re happy with them now!” affirms Campbell, whilst Dee says, “We should remember that it’s about having some fun with songs that we all loved.”
So there you are. If that doesn’t have you scrambling for your music delivery device, then check your pulse pronto. Or just start scrambling for a copy of Under Cöver immediately. You won’t be sorry.

[@VictorRochaGaming]

I met Lemmy one night at a strip club in Las Vegas. I walk in the joint and there he was - leaning against the bar looking like a fuckin' rock star. I walk up and ask him if he wants a shot of whisky. He says Jack Daniels. We chat for about 5 minutes then I leave before wearing out my welcome. In general, you should never meet your heroes. But, every once in a while, you meet a good guy that just happens to be a legend. That guy was Lemmy.

[@adamdrach5394]

I have a friend in So Cal. Jeff, and he met Lemmy once. He told Lemmy that he was his hero, and Lemmy told him nah, be your own hero. Then he asked him what he did for a living, and Jeff told him he installed alarm systems. Lemmy then said" Jeff, when a family is saved from having their home robbed, who are they going to thank? Not me, be your own hero. Jeff was almost ready to quit that job, but Lemmy gave him the kick in the ass to climb the company ladder, until he became part owner of the company. Wise words from Lemmy, a all round great guy.

There's footage on KZbin of the only time when they tried playing this cover live. They even restart the song but Lemmy keeps singing the lyrics to Orgasmatron. It's such a sad, heartbreaking thing to see. We shouldn't remember him by those last concerts though. He rocked out for more than 40 years and lived all of his life turned up to 11. He lived, breathed and died doing what he loved, making millions and millions of people happy. There's never gonna be another Lemmy but I'm glad that I managed to exist at the same time as he did..

This is the most wonderful video celebration of Lemmy ever. I love everything about it...especially the way it comes to an end. A hero's tribute. I really miss being able to look forward to a new Motorhead album. EVERYTHING Lemmy did had integrity. Yeah, some albums he and the boys did were better than others, but you can never say he phoned anything in. Everything he played was for the right reason. He and the boys could make anything sound cool...and I think Bowie himself would be smiling listening to this. Totally respectful and totally unlike any other cover of this song...and unmistakably Lemmy. RIP The Legend.

[@Angela-gh4nk]

You can tell that by Lemmy's voice and the ending, he could've been saying goodbye with that wispy voice. I remember being very devastated and honestly depressed for a week after both deaths. This song is one of Motorhead's best and powerful covers they released. R.I.P. Lemmy and Bowie. edit: Forgot to mention Eddie too. It sucks that he and Bowie both died on my birthday.

[@billmcyrus]

I agree, kinda pick up on that when I listen to it as well. I suppose if he had to have a song to do for us to remember as his last, this would maybe be the best to do it with. By being so powerful it really solidifies his legendary status, which is perhaps even still understated. I only wish I could have met him and thanked him in person for all he did.

[@BL-wh2ux]

I know what you mean about Lemmy's voice. The "Sympathy for the Devil" cover sound is very similar but at the same time uplifting and with a hint of shit-eating grin.
