Motorhead - 1988 Network 7 - Lemmy interview

[@jonnyblade46]

Lemmy was such a fantastic mix of classic brit, cynic, jester, tough guy, happy kid, musician, genius and philanthropist. Totally unique.

[@user-nr5tj4iv8l]

Ну да он сочетал все эти качества в себе... Смешной, Солдатик на сцене, счастливый ребенок в своей оружейке, Как воспитывать детей да хуй знает, Как общаться с фанами кайфуй от музла просто чувак. Причем что мне нравится он не к чему не призывает в текстах просто бюрю создает на концертах

[@randybaccio2407]

The most honest and unpretentious man I've ever seen, fantastic guy!!

[@emperortrevornorton3119]

Give him a whiskey and cigarettes and you will get a awesome story

[@deadyetireviews3969]

I've watched virtually every Lemmy interview KZbin has to offer over the years but this has to be the most personal interview I've ever seen of him. Great upload.

[@deadyetireviews3969]

@68’ Rumble Bee Oh every single time

[@highdownmartin]

68’ Rumble Bee outclassing a psychotherapist this time. Good on yer. Lemmy

[@chomskyhitchens]

And this interviewer is a total idiot

[@grobbler1]

Always found Lemmy impressive when he was interviewed. Under the humour there was a clearly reasoned-out intelligence. Totally his own man, for good or bad.

[@stuartmiller9648]

Lemmy is very articulated and intelligent here....guy was a very clever man...sadly missed.

[@astrologiaeaudiobooks7278]

Speed helps.

[@spiritoflights]

The most genuine cat in the music industry ,Good Soul !The world is at a loss without Lemmy !

[@Lochlann13]

Lemmy was, more than anything, a man who had no illusions about himself. That line "not anymore. Now I was a fact" sums it up. He just existed as himself, didn't fall victim to believing his own legend, and stayed genuine.

[@ScottishTeeVee]

Agreed. Thanks for watching and commenting Lochlann

[@squiresquiffy3728]

The more I see of Lemmy, the more I admire him. What a fella!

[@scoutthedoggie]

Yep, one of a kind.

[@amycrowley2023]

Really intrusive questions handled with genuine intelligence.

[@craigjackson6883]

It doesn't hurt that Lemmy had balls and no shame in a good way. Dude was rock n roll through and through.

[@sinbysin666]

They aren't intrusive. He's literally being asked questions by a psychiatrist. Not a normal interview.

[@robertstewart239]

Good questions with honest answers.

[@philbertb]

5 years gone and I still miss him. This is the first time I've seen this interview, what an intelligent, honest man he was. I met him back around 79/80 in a bar, when Motorhead were at the peak of their success. He was with a load of people, but he still took a few minutes to talk with me and my friend, who were both probably pissed at the time!

[@craigjackson6883]

Jesus it's been 5 years already.

[@someoneelse101]

I would imagine Lem was also drunk

[@smutsharry]

What a guy! So smart, honest, unpretentious and articulate.

[@krishanuA]

Neither gone nor forgotten! 👑👑

[@QuickZ_]

Hard to believe he was taking so much drugs and drinking all the time when he seams more sober then most people in every interview

[@meltedfro]

I miss lemmy,I love that there are so many interviews his personality was contagious!! We miss you lem!

[@louisyoung1916]

6:23 - 6:42 "That's for me" is a rather clear answer. I, for one, would've moved on to something else. Lemmy always gave thoughtful and direct answers to proper questions, but he didn't necessarily suffer fools gladly. It wasn't a foolish question the *first* time, but...take the hint, sir. 😐 As always with Lemmy, that was fascinating. Thank you very much for the video! 🤘 😀

[@adamwalkeraw]

Exactly how i feel about being alone. My mates are always sating i cant believe you go here on your own and there alone, i still like people but you cant keep anyone happy for any length of time so you should use your time and energy making yourself happy, while treating others with respect thats due.

[@REDWASP777]

@ Adam Walker..You are 100% correct! Self happy is the best!!!

[@abelincoln5698]

I honestly believe if Lemmy hadn't been a rockstar , he'd have been successful and perhaps famous in some other vocation. He's charismatic without trying to be.

[@tylerhorne2125]

"you were a fiction in her mind?" "Not anymore, no. I was now a fact" lol

[@charleswinokoor6023]

Two things I noticed. Despite the embarrassing nature of some of the questions he never lost his patience and answered intelligently. And second of all he didn’t use a single curse word, which is more than you can say for a lot of people who leave comments on KZbin.

[@dyllonfoley6831]

This has to be one of the best interviews that I've ever seen. Not only is Lemmy cool and collected, but we can get a small glimpse into how the man functioned. Fantastic bit of footage, thanks for uploading!

[@ScottishTeeVee]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@AreMullets4AustraliansOnly]

He’s so sharp. He really is interesting to be therapised (because he’s so much healthier in mind than people assume) not that i’d want to torture him in that way.

[@jupitorious7925]

The most grounded man I have ever listened to

[@u4ea70]

The interviewer thought he was going to teach Lemmy a few things but Lemmy taught the interviewer a few things instead. Never judge a book...

[@bonkeydollocks1879]

The more I've watched him do interviews the more respect I have for him

[@REDWASP777]

I love Lemmys soul! Lemmys childhood was very much like my own! A loner ! I raised my self. My parents didn't give a hoot about my mental health.. Lemmy describes my upbringing perfectly. Lemmy is a brave and truthful man. I love Lemmys outlook on life!

[@gazgibster]

and That Lemmy is enough for me too brilliant.

[@zakur0hako]

"I was never dominated by my mother" good use of words. that is what going on most of the time between parents and their kids. pure domination and control. and it poisons innocent lives. The worst part is starting to feel that poison in your 30s where everything float on the surface

what a fucking brilliant guy. Was his authentic self his entire life.

[@forever3797]

Most people who hear Motorhead's music are stunned to find out how intelligent, self aware and insightful Lemmy was...

[@LarryFleetwood8675]

Maybe there was some kind of abuse in his childhood, he escaped through the loudness...

[@Abrahamhamham]

Most artists are. You can't make art if you're a stuttering brain dead moron. It's just not possible. Not a successful one, at least.

[@questioneverything1639]

Not really because it reflects in his music. Maybe if you were just a casual fan and judge him by the way he looks then yeah.

[@IvetHere]

I am so impressed by his self awarness and also the boundaries, when it comes to the topic he doesnt want to speak about. You really can see on his eyes he knows what game is being played during the talk about the love. The interviewer ended up being embarrasing🤣 i am such a idiot when 10 years ago i didnt go to get sinatures from Motörhead when they played at local metal festival🙄🙏🏼

[@andreasschmid2444]

The interviewer is very good and Lemmy obviously enjoys that deep questioning.

[@reaper20015]

This was more like sitting down with a therapist rather than an interview.

[@nativist4ever352]

Lemmy was a true role model on how to live your life to the fullest (no matter what age you are). He has always admitted to living for pleasure in the moment and never condoned or influenced anyone to do what he does; simply because he's Lemmy. Sums it upright here @8:28

[@freddieg1095]

I remember this from 1st time around. Great interview. I don't get the hate for the interviewer. He does his job well and let's not forget it's for television (and edited). I've never seen an interview like this where Lemmy truly thinks about the questions. I think it must have been a refreshing change of interview style for him. It's also interesting as I've just watched this after seeing the awful Emma Freud in bed interview. I bet her Great Grandfather would have been a great interviewer! Thanks for the upload.

[@ScottishTeeVee]

Thanks for watching a few of my videos, much appreciated Freddie

[@johnm2558]

I agree with you about the change of interview style. The questions were probing but respectful enough and I'm guessing he was at least briefed beforehand that this would be a particular kind of interview and agreed to proceed. In the end it yielded some very interesting info and views from Lemmy so kudos for that. As for hate.. well who hasn't gotten a bit sniffy on their hero's behalf at some point :)

The patience Lemmy had with dumb questions from witless interviewers revealing absolutely nothing new about the man is highly commendable, it’s way beyond tolerance, something much deeper than empathy and my own tolerance for idiots - but I ain’t no nice guy. What a rare gem of an interview; if you give up watching this then you’ll also miss possibly the single most revealing interview of Lem and the layers are cleverly peeled away to his very core. Great upload, clever interview, and a very rare insight into the man we all admire and miss. Brilliant. Thank you for sharing this.

[@gabrieldzwonowski3363]

As honest as Lemmy is, I really think there's some real deprived pain deep down in him and he's just been numb to it for so long he forgot it's there. I don't agree with him not being there for his kid, but he's too lost to know. But, his outlook works for life, and like he said, he doesn't mind being alone, and he's not hurting anyone, and that's enough for him. Same goes for me. Amen

[@starbreaker6017]

The sexiest lemmy

[@thekewlplace2b]

The Sharp Wild Honesty. A wolf interrogated by livestock. The shrink is obviously trying to measure Lem against some Freudian idea of a "normal" person but Lem was perfect according to Lem and that was the only thing worth minding for him. Personally I live entirely different than Lemmy but he remains as my greatest inspiration. He tells me thai I don't have to be perfect according to anyone else than myself.

[@AreMullets4AustraliansOnly]

Also gotta remember that he made choices he can live with. I’ve never heard a story of Lemmy hurting someone for example. Not even the trail of women he left behind seem to have any hard feelings. The man was moral to the core even if it wasn’t always in socially acceptable ways. If i was gonna explain a Lemmy philosophy to a child it’d be literally be yourself and harm no person more than they deserve. There’s nothing original about what we can learn from Lemmy, but the way he did it is just extremely impressive. Even his son being fatherless was of no fault of Lemmy’s
