6th October 2021MOTÖRHEAD the loudest rock ‘n’ roll band known to humankind (and all other species), is once again in the news.
Their cover of the song “Heroes” has surpassed 50 million views on the band’s YouTube channel.
We think our beloved Lemmy would agree that this is an impressive feat. The David Bowie song was one of his favorites.
And those 50 million viewers aren’t the only ones to put Lemmy on a pedestal. During an appearance on BBC Radio and transcribed by Ultimate Guitar, Ozzy Osbourne was asked to single out his rock god. “My rock god is Lemmy Kilmister. Lemmy was a guy – he shot from the hip every time.”
