No Band quite makes the most perfect of rock and roll rackets like Captain Lemmy and his Bomber Crew. Be it back in their Hawkwind Reject days, through their “Worst Band In The World” era (They were never bad, just misunderstood) to the wilderness years and into universally accepted Icons of R.E.A.L. Real Rock N’ Roll…
Oh Lord, Who Art On High…
Who has made the blades of grass and the little tiny things that creep therein
That hath made the cricked bats, who has made hankies and who has made
All things…
Bless thou, these people from Motörhead
That they may so verily endow the people of this planet with pleasure and enjoyment
That yea, they may verily increase fourfold
Their already large sums of loot
and enable them here in this life to purchase maybe one other pair of trousers each
Oh Lord, thou who has seen the trouserless and had compassion
Look down upon them, thank You
I’m curious, what would you as a Motorhead fan say if I listed my top five Motorhead songs as-
– Please Don’t Touch
– I’m the Doctor
– No Class
– Deaf Forever
– America

Thanks, but I’m just wondering whether that would be considered a normal top five, or a more unique one?

It’s pretty damned unique. You can count on true fans to have their own reasons for liking collaboration singles, b-sides etc because they’ve looked that much deeper. It’s why I love Another Perfect Day so much. It’s the band I love but a little different

I’m glad to hear it’s unique. I’m actually quite new to Motorhead, the only disc I own being the 20 song greatest hits entitled “Deaf Forever”, but it impressed me a lot.

Check out one of the newer albums next. Maybe We Are Motörhead or Aftermath
