Visions: Motörhead – God Save The Queen



So today’s the day of our Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations. It’s also my second wedding anniversary!

Enough about my personal life though. Here’s some things you need to know about Motörhead’s cover of one of the Sex Pistols’ biggest hits.

1. I’d wager it’s better than the Pistols' original. It certainly rocks more.
2. They bothered to make a video for it. And it’s quality, as they perform on a flotilla around ol’ London town.
3. Lemmy. Without a beard! But still the coolest frontman you’ve ever seen.
4. Yep, definitely better than the original.

But that’s my opinion. You can weigh in with your two pennies below. Once you’ve watched the video, that is. It’ll only take around three minutes of your time and it’s more fun that the day’s celebrations, that’s for sure.
