    I love this song... But what I love the most about it... Is something I read in an old interview with Lemmy he said something like "I don't really like to play cards... But it's hard to write a song about playing slot machines"

      If you ever go to Los Angeles, visit the Rainbow Bar & Grill. The outside bar as a plaque where Lemmy used to sit almost every single day he could (he lived nearby) and play on the video poker machine. They gave him the machine when his health deteriorated to the point that he couldn't leave his apartment, but they've got a new one there and turned the whole bar into a tribute to him.

      The song is about the Vietnam war.The special forces used the ace of spades card as a calling card to the enemy to let them know who had defeated them. They would place them on the bodies of the slain enemies to strike fear into them. It kinda gives a hole now meaning to the song.

    Lemmy (the singer/bassist) was the ultimate "wino". He drank (and collected the bottles of) a ton of Jack and Coke, was constantly high (especially on speed) and was always laughing and always had a smile on his face. He and his bands (Motörhead and early Hawkwind) had almost 30 studio albums, and none of them are bad. Sadly he died a couple years ago. R.I.P. you great legend. Thanks for your love for Rock N Roll, your fans and life in general.

    So glad you did this song....Lemmy was an enigma....Started smoking at 11 years old. Drank a handle of jack daniels a day.....A doctor told him in the 70's that he would drop dead any moment from his lifestyle, but he lived til the age of 70 in 2016. He was obsessed with pinball machines and slots.....Lived in the same small two-bedroom apartment in Hollywood since 1990, despite having money. He would walk down to the Rainbow Bar and Grill almost every night to grab some food, and loved talking to his fans.....His music isn't for everyone, but they influenced the early metal scene (they took Metallica on tour with them when they were youngsters, and taught them the fast guitar riffs!)

    Reaction channels get such a bad rep on this website because some people don't know how to do it. They sit there, watch the full video, maybe laugh a little bit, say whether they liked it or not at the end, and that's that, they get the views, get paid.
    YOU TWO, on the other hand, do it RIGHT. Y'all take time to appreciate what's in front of you, you move to the music and express emotions, you pause it every so often to discuss music and/or lyrics and you discuss the symbolisms and what the artist was trying to express. And the chemistry you two have allows you bounce ideas off one another and enjoy the music together (you know, like friends lol). And also you guys listen to some kick ass music!
    By the way, my favorite video of yours is the Working Man reaction. The fact that I love it, that you guys love it, the way you talk about it, George melting out of his chair during the solo. Awesome reaction video to an awesome song.
    One of if not the BEST (music) reaction channel on the website! I can see you guys hitting 500k subs, and even 1 million subs in no time. There's something special here. Peace to both of you, Ryan and George!

It's not enough to just sit there and watch, you've got to have personality and an intellect, and these two have plenty of that. I feel like calling this a reaction channel is almost an insult. It's more like a music-appreciation and lyrical analysis channel. I know it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, but I think it's more accurate.

      Amen brother. Song is pretty much about Lemmy's life. He was always a gambler in life, from roadying for Hendrix to penning the hit single for Hawkwind and forming who all critics hated. I think he won at the end, cause Motorhead became an iconic band who now is revered. Amazing! But since Fast Eddie past in January, I don't think they'll be inducted (even posthumously) into the Hall.

    Lemmy was a gambler, but he was the hardest parting human on the planet. The Ace of spades is also a reference to a kill card used by soldiers to mark their kills, and you could also draw a correlation to Aces and Eights otherwise known as the dead mans hand.

      And also there is a correlation between the term "ace", as used to describe something very good, and the very good nature of the song.
      For example, you could say "This is an ace song".

  • @kirillsviderski4739
    @kirillsviderski4739 6 років тому +6

    This is the most legendary song in the hole metal history. Ace of spades was extremly fast to its tine. And this one was the reason to a lot of children begins to play so fast as they can!!! This caused appearance to thrash metal and many other genres in future!! And also, Motorhead and Lemmy was the last group that connects true rock'n'roll from 60-70 with modern metal!!

    What you said about "transitions" I would interpret as "dynamic range" which is what I liked early Led Zeppelin for; they weren't just ALL heavy, they had light and shade.
    However, Motörhead are just full-on pedal to the metal from go to whoah. That's their thing, that's what I have a grudging affection for, even if I don't have any of their LPs.

    This song is about "not transition",..just building and building raw power......this is blow torch fire ...not meant to have deep movement nor dynamic emotional highs and lows.... nor melodic shape ,...this is a straight facepunch,...it is hard smashing on the gas pedal and hearing the engine dig in and rev higher and higher, as you go faster and feel torque pushing and roaring underneath you....not to sway with transition and pull you or slow you down and take corners or rise and fall on hills,...just a straight shot...like a Drag race ,,...not to embrace the finish,...but to hear and feel the power of the mechanism as it rises in output and blasts .out it's sonic anger and embraces its full capabilities...like a machine built to the nuts being pushed to it's limits and being finally able to roar like it realizes it was built for this and it finally gets to eat what it kills

    God Rest the mighty Lemmy Kilmister!!! Without Motorhead, there would be no Metallica. Without Motorhead there would be no "Big Four" or Thrash Metal. Lemmy's voice was just like his personality...rough, full throttle and straight forward. When you asked for more dynamic, that kind of technicality came later in Metal. When "Ace of Spades" was released, punk was trying to take over and Lemmy and the crew were having no part of it. I'm glad you both enjoyed it because this song, this band and this man (excuse me, this GOD known as Lemmy) are REVERED amongst the metal masses. Lemmy was infact a gambler, but the reality of the song is that he gambled with his life. Fast paced, fast women, booze and hard living...Lemmy IS what Metal is all about.

    Motorhead are legends. Not one of my favorites but their legend is undeniable. And Ace of Spades is absolutely their best song. So great idea. The riff is iconic. I saw them with Maiden and Dio in Va. Many many years ago. Incredible show. Lemmy's whiskey soaked vocals were certainly not technically good but they were always memorable. And seemed like a hell of a cool dude as well. RIP Lemmy

    Motorhead is my favorite band, so seeing reactions from a couple of guys who aren't primarily metalheads is a lot of fun. Lemmy was a sort of personal hero to me; I never agreed with some of what he said, but I never felt I had to in order to enjoy the music and like the man from afar. I could spend all day with these guys just playing Motorhead (and the Headcat!) songs and talking about them. You guys got a subscriber out of this as it looks like your videos will be a lot of fun!
