another MotorHead banger is "No Voices In The Sky"..............Yes that was the bass.....Lemmy is the man who sings and plays bass R.I.P. great vid guys!!
Not quite. I saw them in Vienna in 1996 and he said: "We are Motörhead and we're gonna kick your arse!" Then they started into Iron Fist... I still think fondly of that show!
Raise your hand if your introduction to Motorhead was on an episode of The Young Ones. (That was my first time hearing or seeing them back in high school :) )
Wasn't my introduction to Motorhead but it certainly makes me think of the 'University Challenge' episode (think it was called Bambi) of the Young Ones. The whole train station skit was funny as f*ck at the time. Tried watching some recently though and it hasn't dated well. Do still really enjoy the 'Nasty' episode with The Damned playing though.
Yes, he is! I just posted that even though Lemmy looked scary as hell, I had the feeling that I wanted to hug him up! It's nice to know one's instincts are correct. Being a nice person. --- Nice to see you again Ingo! :)
I've never, ever heard of anyone who interacted with Lemmy coming away with anything but a glowing description of the guy, which is just so cool. Plus, he was super-tight with Dave Grohl, which basically makes him a saint in my books. Lemmy and Grohl are up there with, like, Terry Crews and Dave Bautista as living proof that being a badass is not the same thing as being an asshole.
Hi guys I'm from England. I was a member of the Motorhead road crew. If you enjoyed Ace of Spades try Overkill. Although Motorhead are no longer with us their sounds still burst anybody's eardrums. Lemmy was in British space rock band Hawkwind.
There is a picture for sale in a shop near me of Lemmy with a quote of his just before he died...”Kayne West? Never heard of her”. Proper Rock n Roll legend. Great song. Great review.
Chazz: Who'd win in a wrestling match, Lemmy or God? Chris Moore: Lemmy. Chris Moore: ... God? Rex: Wrong, dickhead, trick question. Lemmy *IS* God. -Airheads
John, that's the one. I caught it in Chicago (one of the suburbs). I did make it out to the Bay Area a few years later. I got to see Satriani in Oakland, and drove to Sacramento to see Rush, and later, Van Hagar. The only time I remember going to Mountain View was for an airshow at Moffett Field. It was billed as "the last airshow." That was mid 90's when they were shutting down a bunch of bases in California and Moffett got the axe.
Mötörhead was a band who the punks, Goths, metalheads, and arena bands all respected. They STILL do! I'm happy I got to see them double bill with the Foo-Fighters a few years ago. Check out the Foo's "White Limo" is a collaboration with both bands. It's crazy awesome!
Lemmy defines the archetype of the British rock star. Motorhead is the dirtiest band in the world. If they moved in next door to you, your lawn would die.
Ace of Spades is probably the perfect introduction to Motorhead. The intro is indeed Lemmy (vocals as well) and his ever present Rickenbacker bass guitar.
I think a lot of these reaction videos, they dont want to admit, "sorry, i have heard this before, didnt know it was going to eb this. Some people making reaction videos just straight up lie.
That was the fastest metal we had back then. It was way faster than anything else. They influenced all the Thrash bands thst came after 4-5 years. Metallica are big funs of Lemmy and Motorhead. Great choise!
My very first album was Motorhead's "No Sleep 'til Hammersmith", a live album from 1981. The rendition of their song "Bomber" is one of my favourites, played at a significantly higher tempo than the studio version. It used to get me pumped up when I was a bare-chested, leather-and-spikes clad bare knuckle fighter (locally known as "Creeping Death" lol). Made me feel like I could deflect bullets. I also recommend their self-titled track i.e "Motorhead" obviously, or "Overkill".
More Motorhead gems: Just "Cos You Got the Power, (We Are) The Road Crew, Shoot You in the Back, Orgasmatron, Capricorn, 1916, Killed By Death, Stone Dead Forever...so many. Glad you guys liked it, thought it may be a little too raw for those fledgling ears.
This is another song I've gotten many speeding tickets from. I've seen Motorhead in concert several times and each time, I left deaf. I raised my kids on music like this! RIP Lemmy!
I had to listen to the song again just to be clear, researched it, and I'm 100% sure that there is a bass riff in the beginning, that was AWESOME!!!!! I heard the bass throughout the rest of the song and he was on FIRE!!!! I like how the drummer changed things up in the middle with that pause and I love the juicy guitar solo, incredible!!! The intensity and how your blood kicks in while listening to this song is just unreal, and I've wanted to check out Motörhead since I heard about them two weeks ago in a documentary about 80s hair metal, so I'm glad I was able to check them out through this channel. I will definitely be checking them out again, I wasn't too crazy about the lyrics, but I still think it's a great song! With that being said, great reaction video and have a great day Andy and Alex! :)
Check out the music vid to get the full Motorhead experience, lol. I was never much of a Motorhead fan but this is the definition of banger for me. They were a big influence on the punk and metal scene in the 80's. The lead singer, Lemmy, sang on an album with David Grohl (Nirvana/Foo Fighters) that wasn't too bad. The band was called Probot.
Yeah. That is a dirty overdriven bass played by the almighty Lemmy! Note: the entire lineup that recorded this song (Lemmy: vocals and bass; Fast Eddie Clarke: guitar; and Philthy Phil Taylor: drums) have all passed away. This was the classic lineup of the band. They are now nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Extra note: Lemmy formed Motorhead after leaving the space rock group Hawkwind, which was a heavy, spacey, psychedelic band.
Now you're ready to launch into space with Lemmy's pre-Motorhead band HAWKWIND (they kicked him out for getting busted at the border with drugs). Whatever you consider 70's prog rock to be, Rush is at one end of that spectrum and Hawkwind is at the opposite end. "Master Of The Universe", "Brainstorm", "You'd Better Believe It" and many, many other soundtrack jams for missions to the center of your mind.
That was the Classic MoToRhEaD lineup with Lemmy Kilmister (bass) and yes that was a bass-driven intro philthy Phil Taylor (drums) and Fast Eddie Clarke on Guitar. Unfortunately, Motorhead is no more, they have all died. There were several incarnations of the band with Lemmy being the glue that held it all together. Some other song suggestions that are BANGERS would be "Eat the Rich" "Killed by Death" "One More Fucking Time" "Stone Dead Forever"
Great reaction and analysis 👍🏼 I think you nailed it with that 50’s Rock and Roll vibe. That’s Lemmy ! ... also that ‘narley’ bass tone is also what Lemmy is famously known for. 🤘🏼 9.5
I remember seeing Motorhead in the early 90's in San Francisco. One of the loudest bands I ever heard (Ministry was probably the loudest). Also, the audience was full of punks and bikers, and everyone was having a great time together. Such a fun band to see live. If you want some more bangers, give Ministry a chance. Heavy, heavy, heavy music. Bangers unite!
When I saw The Ace of Spades first time reaction, I had to watch with a BIG ASS grin on my face. 😁🎸A♠️ Rock and Roll! ... better drunk. Don't forget "Frankenstein " Edgar Winter Group 🎃
Frankenstein's one of my all time favorites. Bought "They Only Come Out At Night" when I was about 12, for that song( and Free Ride ) First album I ever bought.
Any band with an umlaut in their name is, by definition, cool. Thrash does not exist without Motorhead inventing it, and Lemmy is an absolute legend on the bass. Also listen to: Killed By Death; Iron Fist; Orgasmatron
Classic live album, Lemmy's playing bass like a rhythm guitar. Overkill and Metropolis are awesome too, especially live and that album has the ultimate versions.
18 years old. Walking through my Village in England. ( Waltington if you want to know near Kings Lynn Norfolk ) A van pulls up. I think " Here we go " a fight is on the way. The side door opens and members of the Highwaymen ( Motorcycle club ) are in the van " Rick we have a spare ticket to see a heavy metal band. Want to come alone. ( I will say i do know all the members, they are friends for years ) Not sure where we are heading or even what band. No one will tell me. All i know is they were looking for me because i was willing " To get stuck in " in case of trouble..... Get inside and the band starts ... Bloody Motorhead LIVE What a show Must have been around 1980. Think of that Just walking along and within 2 maybe 3 hours you are watching Motorhead....
The perfect “single” - intro, verses, chorus, middle section, solo and ending. It has it all and doesn’t outstay it’s welcome. Lemmy’s bass tone is legendary. Other Motörhead tracks, Check out: Bomber, Shine We are the road crew Killed by death No class Stay clean Stone dead forever. Overkill.
You know its a good song when the FIRST reaction is " Wheeeew". And that's a fact..in the vid. That's a ten. come 'on...."wheew" and not a ten? awwww come on.
Great concert! I saw them open for Slayer, in the late 80's. Lemmy was literally right in front of me., singing. "And that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live forever!"..
If you've ever seen the film 'This Is Spinal Tap' and how the amps in it go upto 11 instead of 10, that was inspired by this song and how Motorhead were the loudest band everrrr
Motorhead was the band I listened to most when I was about your age. I've been tempted to suggest them but wasn't sure you would like them. My mistake! I would recommend 'Overkill' for your next Motorhead song and maybe check out Lemmy's previous band, Hawkwind for some psychedelic, space craziness. 😎
Got into Motorhead in 1981, my first chance to see them live was in 1985. I remember them walking onto the stage and Lemmy announced, "We are Motorhead, and we're going to kick your ass"!
hank the handkerchief Yeah, they do. Bomber kicks ass, Metropolis kicks ass, Stay Clean kicks ass, Iron Fist kicks ass, Go to Hell kicks ass, Jailbait kicks ass, Killed by Death kicks ass etc. etc. I think this song is a great introduction to the band & exactly who they are, but they have lots of songs just as good as Ace of Spades..
@David Clinging I agree with you about Revolver, but personally I think SPLHCB is their best album. I am also a fan of weird experimental music and sense that is what the album has, my opinion is definetly biased but I would enjoy watching them react nonetheless
@David Clinging my favourite song from the album is Being for the benefit of Mr. Kite. In my opinion, not everything has to be deep and profound. It doesn't even need to have a message, as long as the instruments capture me, which that song does
A Lemmu quote that blew my mind, "I remember when there was no rocknroll", he was old enough to recall a time before acts like Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis, but he was a fan of all of them
Was awesome checking out our first Motorhead track! What other songs would you guys suggest?! Have a great day friends!! 🔥🤟🏻
Eat The Rich
another MotorHead banger is "No Voices In The Sky"..............Yes that was the bass.....Lemmy is the man who sings and plays bass R.I.P. great vid guys!!
Great song......next, George thorogood bros.... Song, who do you love
@@joeyblowey8582 killed by death
Mikey, I know you're losing your mind right now!! Congrats, Mate! :))
"We are Motörhead and we play Rock'n'Roll." That's how Lemmy started all their shows.
Also “We are Motörhead, and we’re here to kick your ass.”
Lemmy looked scary as hell, but for some reason... I wanted to hug him up. A gentle soul. Anyone else have that urge? lol :)
Not quite. I saw them in Vienna in 1996 and he said: "We are Motörhead and we're gonna kick your arse!" Then they started into Iron Fist... I still think fondly of that show!
@@maccrazy7335 All right, most of their shows
He didn't do that from the very start and he, usually, said that towards the END of the show. ...but in any case: He was a bad-ass. 🤘🤘
Rest in Peace Motorhead (Classic line-up)
-Lemmy Kilmister (1945 - FOREVER)
--Bass, Vocals
-Eddie Clarke (1950 - FOREVER)
--Guitars
-Phil Taylor (1954 - FOREVER)--Drums
Can't believe they're all gone.
Raise your hand if your introduction to Motorhead was on an episode of The Young Ones. (That was my first time hearing or seeing them back in high school :) )
Loved that show
Yes and the next day I bought the single at Woolworths.
Yup yup!
Wasn't my introduction to Motorhead but it certainly makes me think of the 'University Challenge' episode (think it was called Bambi) of the Young Ones. The whole train station skit was funny as f*ck at the time. Tried watching some recently though and it hasn't dated well. Do still really enjoy the 'Nasty' episode with The Damned playing though.
Sheik Yebouti yes! It was the episode “Bambi.” Still one of my favorites!
Lemmy is a legend, he was such a nice person and such a rock-star at the same time. Lemmy played the bass like a guitar....
Yes, he is! I just posted that even though Lemmy looked scary as hell, I had the feeling that I wanted to hug him up! It's nice to know one's instincts are correct. Being a nice person. --- Nice to see you again Ingo! :)
@@lisaw5604 clearly seeing the rougher sides of life can really make you want to do more to be a good person
I've never, ever heard of anyone who interacted with Lemmy coming away with anything but a glowing description of the guy, which is just so cool. Plus, he was super-tight with Dave Grohl, which basically makes him a saint in my books.
Lemmy and Grohl are up there with, like, Terry Crews and Dave Bautista as living proof that being a badass is not the same thing as being an asshole.
Balls to the wall , rock & roll ! Shame they aren't with us anymore..... What a legacy !
Hi guys I'm from England. I was a member of the Motorhead road crew. If you enjoyed Ace of Spades try Overkill. Although Motorhead are no longer with us their sounds still burst anybody's eardrums. Lemmy was in British space rock band Hawkwind.
This song is iconic. Everything about it just drips with attitude. The type of rock that terrified our parents. Great energy and as raw as they come.
The undiluted essence of ball-wrenching rock n' roll.
How wonderful.
I'm so proud to be British.
There is a picture for sale in a shop near me of Lemmy with a quote of his just before he died...”Kayne West? Never heard of her”. Proper Rock n Roll legend. Great song. Great review.
”Kayne West? Never heard of her”.
Yes! Yes!
Motorhead isn't a band. It's a religion, and Lemmy is god.
David Baron Crystal and Jack were our sacraments.
Chazz:
Who'd win in a wrestling match, Lemmy or God?
Chris Moore:
Lemmy.
Chris Moore:
... God?
Rex:
Wrong, dickhead, trick question. Lemmy *IS* God.
-Airheads
The bass tone is literally a Rickenbacker bass plugged into a Marshall stack cranked to 11 !!!
MURDER ONE
That intro is all Lemmy, on the Rickenbacker with a pick, thru cranked Marshalls!
My dad has a marshall amp, and only has good things to say about them. They kick some serious behind
Cranked is right. They played LOUD. I saw them on tour with Judas Priest and Alice Cooper back in '91. My ears are still ringing.
Motorhead are like The Who, they were much better live. Check out a live version of Overkill or Bomber and they will blow your ears out
@@peterhineinlegen4672, I saw that tour in Mountain View, CA. Metal Church and Dangerous Toys were also there. Operation Rock n' Roll was the tour.
John, that's the one. I caught it in Chicago (one of the suburbs). I did make it out to the Bay Area a few years later.

Lemmy defines the archetype of the British rock star. Motorhead is the dirtiest band in the world. If they moved in next door to you, your lawn would die.
The Mentors were pretty dirty too!
clint wood 🤣🤣🤣 best comment ever dude.
Good thing Lemmy learned how to play the bass in Hawkwind, just saying!!!
Lemmy is God
Ace of Spades is probably the perfect introduction to Motorhead. The intro is indeed Lemmy (vocals as well) and his ever present Rickenbacker bass guitar.
"We want to be the band that if we moved in next door to you, your lawn would die." So rock n' roll.
As a pro musician I must say I dig you guys, love seeing the younger generation discovering classics, I have a feeling that you guys are music majors
Its hard for me to grasp the fact that you had never heard Ace of spades before.
They aren't anchient like you
I think a lot of these reaction videos, they dont want to admit, "sorry, i have heard this before, didnt know it was going to eb this. Some people making reaction videos just straight up lie.
@@Frankincensedjb123
"If you think you're too old to Rocknroll, then you are."
Lemmy Kilmeister
On every 'greatest metal/rock album in the world ever' it's track 1
You can't listen to motorhead wearing a dave matthews shirt. The metal gods are angry
David Kilby ...damn straight!
Yes burn that shirt
🤘
Lol...funny you say that. I was thinking the exact thing
And if you knew how Lemmy was he would probably tell you to sod off with that sentiment.
That was the fastest metal we had back then. It was way faster than anything else. They influenced all the Thrash bands thst came after 4-5 years. Metallica are big funs of Lemmy and Motorhead. Great choise!
And it was never metal.
Motorhead is brilliant. They never sold out. One of the best concerts ever.
"This drummer was on crack.."
You're honestly probably not that far off😂
also the live impression he does isnt far off from animal.
Certainly on speed.
Philthy
"I think they're on the heavier side of things" 😂
LOL yeah. I have T shirts older than them, so I can't be too harsh on them : )
You should listen Mr Crowley. Ozzy singing and one of the greatest guitarists ever, Randy Rhoads, who tragically died when he was just 25
That song gives me CHILLS my god all the time!
Rip Randy
Motorhead is best when drinking lots of alcohol and doing something at least slightly dangerous/stupid/illegal.
Shut yo mouth! 😂
Truer words have never been spoken
I was pretty much always completely sober and love Motörhead.
Seen Mororhead about 15 times. Ears still ringing
'HEAVY 70s'
Gotta do 'Baby I Dont Care'
Lemmy (lead singer) plays chords on Bass.
Badass player.
RIP Lemmy Kilmeister
In the words of the great Lemmy "If Motorhead moved next door then your lawn would die" a true rock legend.
Saw the classic line up a dozen times back in the day. RIP Lemmy, Philthy and Fast Eddie.
Check out “OVERKILL” By Motörhead 🤘🏼You’ll love it
My very first album was Motorhead's "No Sleep 'til Hammersmith", a live album from 1981. The rendition of their song "Bomber" is one of my favourites, played at a significantly higher tempo than the studio version. It used to get me pumped up when I was a bare-chested, leather-and-spikes clad bare knuckle fighter (locally known as "Creeping Death" lol). Made me feel like I could deflect bullets. I also recommend their self-titled track i.e "Motorhead" obviously, or "Overkill".
More Motorhead gems: Just "Cos You Got the Power, (We Are) The Road Crew, Shoot You in the Back, Orgasmatron, Capricorn, 1916, Killed By Death, Stone Dead Forever...so many. Glad you guys liked it, thought it may be a little too raw for those fledgling ears.
React to Robin Trower “Too Rolling Stoned “
William Ross I totally agree!
This is one of those songs that starts off hitting you in the head with a baseball bat and doesn't stop until it's over.
This is another song I've gotten many speeding tickets from. I've seen Motorhead in concert several times and each time, I left deaf. I raised my kids on music like this! RIP Lemmy!

Grateful Dead - Birdsong live 08/27/72!!!
The greatest 2 minutes and 45 seconds in rock and roll history.
Yes...that was Lemmy playing the bass at the start!
I had this on in the car and I drove so fast, and I got to work before I left the house
Bad ass🎶🎶😎Banger!!!!
Speed Metal!!! Lemmy was a roadie for Hendrix 🎤🎙️
Sweet intel
I didn't know that. So interesting.
Rock'n'Roll
Yeah. That is a dirty overdriven bass played by the almighty Lemmy!

Blind faith can't find my way home a must listen 😍🇨🇦
Ahh, yes, Steve Winwood on vocals can't go wrong on that song
One of the best songs ever, You dont get more energy than this
Eye of the tiger comes a close second.
Check out Dave Grohl's tribute to Lemmy at his funeral.

Lemmy learned bass on his own. He played for Hawkwind
KILLED BY DEATH - Motörhead
ORGASMATRON - Motörhead
Killed By Death has to be the best Motörhead video ever.
Stephen Parkinson Oh dude I know. One of the coolest videos ever by anyone.
THE CHASE IS BETTER THAN THE CATCH
I remember seeing Motorhead in the early 90's in San Francisco. One of the loudest bands I ever heard (Ministry was probably the loudest). Also, the audience was full of punks and bikers, and everyone was having a great time together. Such a fun band to see live. If you want some more bangers, give Ministry a chance. Heavy, heavy, heavy music. Bangers unite!
“Eat The Rich” or “Killed by Death” by these guys.
That look at each other In acknowledgment after the bridge! ❤😂 ♠️
Yep head banging to Motorhead wearing a Dave Mathew’s T-shirt
Motörhead - Sacrifice (+ Drumsolo) (Stage Fright) HQ
Great song, Motörhead were basically a punk band with hair! “Bomber” is in a similar vein to this, just fast rock!
LEMMIE LEAD SINGER WAS LEAD IN HAWKWIND EARLY 70s THEY DID SILVER MACHINE
When I saw The Ace of Spades first time reaction, I had to watch with a BIG ASS grin on my face. 😁🎸A♠️ Rock and Roll! ... better drunk. Don't forget "Frankenstein " Edgar Winter Group 🎃
Frankenstein's one of my all time favorites. Bought "They Only Come Out At Night" when I was about 12, for that song( and Free Ride ) First album I ever bought.
Lemmy was a roadie for Jimi Hendrix. His Bass is run through a guitar amp stack to fill in the growley mids.
I'm not a MotorHead, but this tune does rock! Only MotorHead song I've ever heard, I should checkout more but I just never do it. I don't know why?
My sentiments exactly. First one for me also, but it won't be the last. Rockin tune.
If there’s one “Overkill”.
Any band with an umlaut in their name is, by definition, cool. Thrash does not exist without Motorhead inventing it, and Lemmy is an absolute legend on the bass. Also listen to: Killed By Death; Iron Fist; Orgasmatron
If God and Lemmy got into a fight.
Who'd win?
Trick question,
Lemmy is God.
Trick question. Lemmy IS God.
Lemmy.
Best housework music! 😂
'no sleep til hammersmith' the most energetic live album ever.
Classic live album, Lemmy's playing bass like a rhythm guitar. Overkill and Metropolis are awesome too, especially live and that album has the ultimate versions.
18 years old. Walking through my Village in England. ( Waltington if you want to know near Kings Lynn Norfolk ) A van pulls up. I think " Here we go " a fight is on the way. The side door opens and members of the Highwaymen ( Motorcycle club ) are in the van " Rick we have a spare ticket to see a heavy metal band. Want to come alone. ( I will say i do know all the members, they are friends for years ) Not sure where we are heading or even what band. No one will tell me. All i know is they were looking for me because i was willing " To get stuck in " in case of trouble..... Get inside and the band starts ... Bloody Motorhead LIVE What a show Must have been around 1980. Think of that Just walking along and within 2 maybe 3 hours you are watching Motorhead....
Please you must react to Overkill. In my opinion one of the best solos ever.
The perfect “single” - intro, verses, chorus, middle section, solo and ending. It has it all and doesn’t outstay it’s welcome. Lemmy’s bass tone is legendary. Other Motörhead tracks, Check out:
Bomber,
Shine
We are the road crew
Killed by death
No class
Stay clean
Stone dead forever.
Overkill.
Don’t forget “Cradle to the Grave”
You know its a good song when the FIRST reaction is " Wheeeew". And that's a fact..in the vid. That's a ten. come 'on...."wheew" and not a ten? awwww come on.
Great concert! I saw them open for Slayer, in the late 80's. Lemmy was literally right in front of me., singing.
"And that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live forever!"..
The true metal God
LEMMY
If you've ever seen the film 'This Is Spinal Tap' and how the amps in it go upto 11 instead of 10, that was inspired by this song and how Motorhead were the loudest band everrrr
Rush - Limelight. Amazing song, must do a reaction to it.
RUSH rules! Best band ever!
Ace of Spades is most people's introduction to Motörhead, but I really do think Overkill is a better introduction to what the band is.
Motorhead was the band I listened to most when I was about your age. I've been tempted to suggest them but wasn't sure you would like them. My mistake!
I would recommend 'Overkill' for your next Motorhead song and maybe check out Lemmy's previous band, Hawkwind for some psychedelic, space craziness. 😎
There has never been anyone before or since who is more rock and roll than Lemmy.
We used to put this on all the time at high school parties - a trip down amnesia avenue for sure lol.
Also what he says in the breakdown. Dont Forget The Joker. Words to live by.
Yer great british band
Check out “bomber”
A real banger
Also deep purple’s “Fireball” and “Black night”
Top
Got into Motorhead in 1981, my first chance to see them live was in 1985. I remember them walking onto the stage and Lemmy announced, "We are Motorhead, and we're going to kick your ass"!
You are correct......the opening....bass; the legendary Lemmy. Lead singer, bass player. A true power trio. He's a legend.
Lemmy gave keith Emerson the daggers he used to stab his Moog in concert. Very cool shit. ☮️
The Ace of Spades was my first introduction to Motorhead also back around 1982 or so. There will NEVER be another LEMMY! RIP
This might be their biggets hit but trust me, they have LOADS of better songs ;D
They have no song better than this you pleb
hank the handkerchief Yeah, they do. Bomber kicks ass, Metropolis kicks ass, Stay Clean kicks ass, Iron Fist kicks ass, Go to Hell kicks ass, Jailbait kicks ass, Killed by Death kicks ass etc. etc. I think this song is a great introduction to the band & exactly who they are, but they have lots of songs just as good as Ace of Spades..
@@hankthehandkerchief523 They definitely do. You're the pleb for thinking this is their best song lmao
Iron Fist , Bomber , Overkill are perennially all time bangers 😎
If you want live , Live at Hammersmith '80 is up your alley
Please please please react to the entire Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album by the Beatles. It is nothing less than genius
@David Clinging I agree with you about Revolver, but personally I think SPLHCB is their best album. I am also a fan of weird experimental music and sense that is what the album has, my opinion is definetly biased but I would enjoy watching them react nonetheless
@David Clinging my favourite song from the album is Being for the benefit of Mr. Kite. In my opinion, not everything has to be deep and profound. It doesn't even need to have a message, as long as the instruments capture me, which that song does
@David Clinging Sgt. Pepper is awesome. Just like everything else they did, especially from 66 and on
Lemmy lived last of his life at a Hollywood bar, always was a nice guy.
I see the Dave Matthews t shirt. I’m expecting, after you get exposed to more music, that will end up in the garbage where it belongs.
Lemmy played bass super fast and opened the song with his great bass line. RIP Lemmy
Lemmy on Bass. LEGEND
Lemmys not on crack. He told his son "don't do no cocaine, always stick with the speed"
Check out "The Hammer" by Motorhead! Very similar to Ace of Spades..
Motorhead is english slang for a speedfreak
A Lemmu quote that blew my mind, "I remember when there was no rocknroll", he was old enough to recall a time before acts like Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Elvis, but he was a fan of all of them
Ronnie James Dio was 3 years older. He was singing and performing before the Beatles.
Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis are still alive - several people are still around who invented rock and roll
Love you guys HONEST opinions👍👍👍👍👍
This band and song, were game changers, rock was never the same after Lemmy showed us what heavy actually meant :)
The bass was a Rickenbacker 4002 through some fuzz with a Marshall stack on the output side.
