Motörhead released 23 studio albums, 10 live recordings, 12 compilation albums and five EPs over a career spanning 40 years. Usually a power trio, they had particular success in the early 1980s with several successful singles in the UK Top 40 chart. The albums Overkill, Bomber, Ace of Spades and, particularly, the live album No Sleep 'til Hammersmith cemented Motörhead's reputation as a top-tier rock band. The band are ranked number 26 on VH1's 100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock. As of 2016, they have sold more than 15 million albums worldwide.
Most often classified as heavy metal, Motörhead has been credited with being part of and influencing numerous musical scenes, thrash metal and speed metal especially. Lemmy, however, always insisted that they were a rock and roll band. He said that they had more in common with punk bands, but with their own unique sound, Motörhead is embraced in both punk and metal scenes. Their lyrics typically covered such topics as war, good versus evil, abuse of power, promiscuous sex, substance abuse and, most famously, gambling, the latter theme being the focus of their hit song "Ace of Spades".
Lemmy died on 28 December 2015 from cardiac arrhythmia and congestive heart failure, after being diagnosed with prostate cancer. The day after his death, drummer Mikkey Dee and guitarist Phil Campbell both confirmed that Motörhead had disbanded. By 2018, all three members of Motörhead's best-known line-up (Lemmy, Taylor and Clarke) had died.

Motörhead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I get ahead of myself
If you knew what you do to me
You'll be with someone else
Jump back, be cool, you make me feel
Like I'm back at school
Make me crazy, crazy for you
Oh you make me hot
You're moving slow, baby don't say no
You move like a rattlesnake
And I can't stand no more, oh babe
You're gonna wreck my mind
And I hope you do it all the time
You better give it your best shot
You know I'm crazy, crazy like a fox
Don't you turn your back on me
You just make it worse
You look just as beautiful
When you're movin' in reverse
Come on, be nice, oh babe
You're gonna wreck my life
Make me crazy, make me jump all night
Oh you make me die
When I look into your eyes
I'm moving in, I'm coming through
You must be an earthquake
'Cause I'm shaking in my shoes
You're gonna wreck my mind
And I hope you do it all the time
I love you're body 'cause it rocks
You make me crazy, crazy like a fox
Come on honey, take my hand
'Cause we're out of here
I'm gonna take you home with me
I'm gonna whisper in your ear
Come on, make it quick
Oh, mama, hit me with your rhythm stick
It's magic time
But I don't play no tricks
Oh baby come on
You know I want to get it on
You must be a guitar player
The way you're stringing me along
Oh babe, you're gonna wreck my mind
And I hope you do it all the time
I'm gonna knock you out of your socks
You make me crazy, crazy like a fox
You've been doin' it all the time
You know I love you, love you lots
Crazy like a fox
You're gonna wreck my mind
I hope you do it all the time
