Lemmy de Motörhead : "Warhol, c'est de la merde" (2002) | Tracks ARTE

so that whole rock and roll thing is dead it's [ __ ] i don't know horses whoever said that who said that somebody who wants rock and roll to be dead you know some some [ __ ] with a magazine or on tv maybe you know who who doesn't like rock and roll you know hey rock and roll is that they said that in 1957 yeah they were wrong then too no but i never even i never heard it and i never read it and i never had anyone say that it's just a saying i think i've heard anybody have you heard do you know who said that who said that president bush i mean six months in every magazine rock and roll i never even seen it in print that rock and roll is dead i heard it two years ago in the magazine yeah yeah rock and roll is dead only one time was that a magazine about britney spears yeah probably yesterday aguilera or something one of them pop magazines you know what the [ __ ] do they know about rock and roll anyway they wouldn't know if it bit him on the ass you know like that they think you know jennifer aguilera is a new important voice i mean she's a great singer you know and she will be better as she goes along because she can really sing you know that chick i mean britney spears is just like sex bomb you know but like jenny aguilera is a really good [ __ ] singer and she's already starting to be better you know she's starting to do more bluesy stuff you know she's really going to be great you know but the rest of them are just so much cream puff you know just [ __ ] you know it's like it's always been you know like in the beginning of rock and roll you had little richard but he also had bobby rydell you know i mean and we all know the difference between the two and this has been the same all the way through always in the church is crap you know that was always the message of rockers rebellion yeah [ __ ] that pushes your parents off you know turn that noise down you know then you know you got it right but then i think rock and roll or at least so some bands that they kind of went side tracks a little bit i mean i don't see that much rock and roll in bands like slipknot maybe you know that that's to me it's more of a circus type of thing you know in 20 years you will not be singing any slipknot songs down the street in your head you know and that's the secret that's why the cleverest guys the band's going to leave the band and pull out the mask yeah i mean what yes that's right like kiss you know but there to put them back on because like they were ugly unfortunate oh yeah put it back on quick did your your tasty music changes for the year you were speaking about blues did you ever went to jazz or some other stuff of course man i'm a musician you know i'm not just i don't just listen to us you know what the [ __ ] do you think only heard that rockefeller answers your question but i mean jazz music for example is something radically different even if you were musicians it's radical all right there's a lot of people getting away with murder in jazz i'll tell you you know because i have seen sax player get up and do a solo which is complete [ __ ] you know like it's all one note a tunnel and it's all crap and people stand up and applaud him you know because they didn't understand what the [ __ ] he did so they thought it was better than them you know and it's like rubbish it's still rubbish no matter where you look at it you know rubbish is rubbish i'm sorry you know improvisation stuff improvisation that's the word yeah it means you can get away with murder like painting a nice painting all you did was you know drop two two cans of paint on a there's a difference between say rembrandt right and that guy that does all that splashes and rides a bicycle across the campus right rembrandt is a craftsman this guy is an opportunist you understand the difference but there's been some great opportunities like andy warhol not many andy warhol was crap man are you kidding me different colored pictures of elvis's face 16 amazing [ __ ] brilliant funny it wasn't funny funny makes you laugh the groucho marx is funny [ __ ] monty python's funny andy warhol is not funny andy warhol is very depressing actually you see that [ __ ] in that white [ __ ] wig and that terrible face and then cheap sunglasses punching around in new york like he's an artist you've been kidding me he was a lemon you know he just happened to be a famous lemon that's all with legs on yeah a lemon is a lemon it doesn't matter famous lemon or unknown lemon it's still a [ __ ] lemon you know you thought he was good and he fooled you too yeah there you go see he was a good good quality con man you're as trippers fan how do you understand that the world of strippers and strip clubs have always been linked to rock and roll because we're in the same business in which way they get up on stage and take their clothes off and so do i we play the stuff and they really do dance to it you know yeah yeah they seem to like it show business you know i mean a stripper is one of the most honest women you find in your life because she knows what [ __ ] guys are and she still talks to them i i think that's very good of them really you know because i mean you meet the worst people in strip clubs most of the guys are just [ __ ] complete [ __ ] you know she does get paid for it grab your fat old [ __ ] there's no money worth it in the world man not for us one of those [ __ ] people you know yeah then they do a hell of a job man they work harder than me um one also very thing that you always seen the mother interview with the reference with drugs and alcohol is it still a way of life that you enjoy well there's one of them i'm going to talk to you about drugs why should i get arrested for your interview he doesn't take drugs at all he reminds you he drinks a lot i drink a lot yeah and is it easy to be on the road working your ass off getting a dc clean it's easier for him all he has to do is jog and sleep we have to buy all them drugs i sleep while they are getting drugs no it's uh i don't know i don't think about it it's boring now doesn't matter to us you know you know choices you get choices in your life he didn't want to take him i did i did he didn't in the same band doesn't matter yeah but when you tour it it's uh that kind of goes hand in hand with with party and going out and um you know some people enjoy it to be sober the whole time that's fine you know i i just i just don't understand that i can't stand a tour you know like that to me remember when phil stopped drinking two days it lasted i haven't had a drink since sunday yeah wednesday one sunday a couple weeks ago no two days ago now not with motorhead this is a party band that's for sure it still is i used to say to people they go are you still you guys party as much as as we read and i said yeah we do but you got to add another 10 times to that and maybe you're you get into the the quote where we're at because nowadays this generation is like [ __ ] you know like two logics then they go you mean you had three whiskey and cokes and you went on stage i said no i was drinking since nine o'clock this morning actually you know when i woke up then i went back to sleep for an hour and i started drinking again you know and then we go on stage okay six hours later so um in answers to your question you have seen me drink three and actually i've drunk half a bottle you know like so it's normal for me you see whatever's normal for you is normal for you it's it's okay you know you don't think about it but like if you do what i do it might kill you you know i don't know or you what you do might probably kill me i am bored to death but you know what i mean though whatever you do every day is normal so for a kid who's like just doesn't do anything you know maybe he has one beer every week you know that's normal for him i i can't imagine i'll be both shitless you know there's two things that are kind of um been blowing up in the or or that i noticed uh lately it's that with with the with kids is alcohol they they don't really party i guess you know that's up to them and i never heard so much uh about you know everybody seem to have a hearing problem they always have earplugs and they're so scared about uh yeah you know what it's so true everyone i mean when i grew up and i played [ __ ] loud music all my life and we never had a hearing problem every kid today seemed to have a hearing problem and they fiddled with earplugs well that's because they got earplugs in all the time and then they finally take them out you know the traffic kills a minute i don't know is the world so much louder today than it was i don't know what it is but party and earplugs i don't know what like i said they don't seem to manage to wake up guys look not deaf i can hear him asking me the question 27 years in mode i should if i was going to be deaf i would be deaf i mean they go to one show and and they they screamed all the staff always the security running around big tough guys little earplugs oh it's so loud and this is the sound check we haven't switched on the pa yet we just got them on stage monitors on they're going oh [ __ ] you know big hard gym guys you know i don't understand the [ __ ] sissies you know you guys come coming with us we go in our party oh no no no it's just sitting on that [ __ ] glass of water no we're just uh gonna chill out back here well [ __ ] you then you know uh they seem to i don't know what's what's up with that but last five years bottle of water [ __ ] yeah you know you see this band that plays really wild music and you got twisted sister was the first one i went backstage at the twisted sister show there are 12 bowls of perry water that's it right and i'm going what's wrong with this [ __ ] picture these guys the big brutal [ __ ] dressed as women you know wow we ain't gonna take it take what the other guy's bottle of perry award you know how about joey in uh manohar sitting he poured water in a can of beer and sitting on stage going yeah i sat down outside the venue and i spoke to my fans and we had and they said joey we shared a beer together and he pours his beer with water in it all over his face i mean what's the deal if you if you wha you know what's the [ __ ] scoop here false metal man oh god are you gonna tell them 100 years ago the vikings ruled the land of sweden a hundred years ago the vikings they drove ferraris hundred years ago they were driving modeling forwards right in ferraris 100 years ago [ __ ] you know their vikings so we're going to sing a song view called valhalla you know oh please eric give me a [ __ ] break really i chose better than money but a lot of these bands to me they are as dangerous as a happy meal at mcdonald's you know i mean you read magazines and and they're badass [ __ ] they're going to kick everybody's ass and they they and we see them and we meet them at festivals and we meet them at shows and they are you know my spare tire is more scary you know in my car than these bands yeah yeah you go third gear is faster so what's going on and they got to go to sleep and they got a [ __ ] oh god so i don't know that's not that's not motor headway though they don't have the spirit you see they lost it somewhere rock and roll is founded on misfits you know rock and roll is founded on outrageous people who outrage you outrage you not your parents outrage you until you go and become outrageous yourself right that's the plan you know if there ever was a plan for motherhood that's it you know outrage your peer group you do this you talk with us and you you share friendship with with someone like ozy what are you guys talking about when you get together the weather you know t-shirts you know that nice piece of architecture over there that he's gonna go and piss you on them i mean you know we don't talk you don't talk about how outrageous you are right you just are how outrageous you are you know and to me i'm not outrageous and just me you know i'm that fool i shave every morning right i mean it's not important you know but everybody else thinks it's important everybody's oh ozzy's freaky as he wasn't free he just [ __ ] over did it a lot on drugs and had a whale of a time you know he had a better time something you're having right talking about it because all you're doing is talking about it so [ __ ] you you know like you know why do people talk about us if they're having as good a time as we are because i ain't talking about them because they're boring you need us man wait wait is it different obviously why are you interviewing me we're not ahead in france and yes right why are you interviewing us because we're [ __ ] outrageous right see it's very simple really i mean you have two kinds either you're outrageous and you do what you do or you sit around the table and discuss how to do how do you be outrageous yeah and and you know that that's so false and a lot a lot of these bands a lot of these artists we see that that shines through right away you know pretend to be before the stage and after the surgery like in cardigans and [ __ ] you know like talking and they bring their kids on tour with them that's the other sign of death you know bring your kids on so i mean right there you know once in a while right there you know i mean he brings his old lady and his kid out for like three days and they go home again you know we don't overdo that [ __ ] these people take them on a whole tour imagine how much fun it is on that tour bus or they're driving in a separate station like a little trailer on the back you know the wife and kids then they're not in the band anymore right they're with the wife it's different you can't do that man you have to be the band has to be your only family you have to be like this against the world yeah then you might win you don't maybe but you have to try that that's the only way you have a chance if there's three of you with three wives and kids and all in three different rooms every night then you're not a band yeah we can end up on that all right thank cheers for your time guys it was great i am naked good question yeah
