If Lemmy said to me, "I like you, you are my friend." I'd probably weep too...

Honestly? As a 50-year-old man, the only time in my life I have -ever- genuinely cried at hearing of a rocker's demise was when Lemmy died. BUT. There was also happiness, knowing that this was a man who had never - EVER - sold out or diluted himself for public consumption in any way. And there is something utterly, timelessly glorious about that. 10% be sad he's gone, 90% celebrate the fuck out of the fact that he was here.

I met Lemmy in a bar in Melbourne in 1984. He was drinking alone and I went up and introduced myself. Top bloke.

I never had the privilege of meeting Lemmy. I really wish I could have. I do occasionally have the greatest dreams where we are hanging out.

Lemmy is love. Henry is love.

Lemmy Kilmister; a god amongst humans. Lemmy FOREVER.

God i miss Lemmy , Cant believe it will be 5 years this December ! I toast him every year and play Motorhead *LOUD* R.I.P Lemmy

One of the best testimonials about Lemmy I have ever heard. Here's Henry Rollins...intelligent, vegetarian, no drugs, negative body fat and he's good friends with Lemmy and respectful of the man who drank a bottle of Jack Daniels each day for 30 years, speed, etc.. A different lifestyle, but HR recognized his honesty and Lemmy recognized HR's honesty.

Not Only Was Lemmy One of A Kind Never Will There Be Another Gent Who Did Things Like Him No Ego No Hey I Am Important Just A Down To Earth Real Musician Who Cared About His Craft And His Fans .

A sweet tale of how a serious person and a funny person can get along

"I like you, you are my friend"...I cant stop crying.

Henry the guy who showed me that a punk could have long hair and Lemmy the guy who played so loud I had to hide behind the audiences bodies with ear plugs in to stand it. From Hendrix's Roadie through acid Space Rock to Punk Metal. I love both these guys. Lemmy WAS Rock. What a character, unique and pure!

only Henry can explain it Lemmy was Rock n Roll him n ronnie are having a ball now

To have had the chance to hang out with Lemmy and for him to call you a friend,what a moment. Legendary stuff, Henry Rollins is a no bullshit kinda bloke and has a great sense of humour too. But don't piss him off. Lol

Lemmy was an unbelievable human being Met him first in Stockport Always tried to keep in touch over the years He gave me the first batch of Motorhead cassettes when our other friend Larry Wallis was at a birthday party in Wimbeldon.How did we all end up together in 1974 ioo milles from home no idea just how life turned out .Everyones story seems the same LEMMY was Lemmy & we all loved him & he remembered all of us photographic memory. Last saw him Pompano Beach in Florida & it was Tony what are you doing here Hadn;t seen him in 5 years!

Thank you Henry. ♠️ RIP Lemmy ♠️

Just goes to show what an amazing person Lemmy was, full of humility and love, mixed with the mind of a mischievous prankster genius. Henry is pretty damn cool too! 🤘♠️❤️

I went to one of Lemmy's last shows and got to meet him and what Henry is saying is 1000% true!. He was very sincere and probably the nicest musician I've ever met and I will never forget that for the rest of my life. RIP Lemmy 🙏, you are the man, the myth and THE LEGEND!.

I love you Henry! Thank you for this. I miss you Lemmy. The world was a better place with you in it.

"You're my friend & I like you" 😢😢😢

Still really miss Lemmy , I’m so grateful we have Henry to tell us these great stories about him though

Lemmy and Rollins are my heroes.

Music unites the masses. Friends wear different clothes then you but if they enjoy your company that's all that matters.

I was at this show. Henry was just amazing for three hours.

Henry is one of the coolest and down to earth guys on the planet

What a True Legend Lemmy on Bass 🎸 the best there ever was... RIP Brother

One national treasure talking about another national treasure... Cool as hell, but god damn, I wish it hadn't had to happen. Can you imagine if those two had narrated a history program?

I'm so fucking envious of Rollins, he met all my heroes!

HENRY COULD TALK ABOUT WATCHING PAINT DRY AND MAKE IT INTERESTING TO THE POINT OF MAKING YOU LEAN FORWARD AS TO MAKE SURE THAT YOURE SOAKING IN EVERY WORD THAT IS SPOKEN!! AND ACTUALLY I WAS AT HIS SHOW LAST NIGHT.. AND YES I LEANED FORWARD FOR 3HRS AND SOAKED IN EVERY WORD HE SPOKE!! WE KNEW LEMMY AS THE BRAINS, THE BASS BEATING, RIFF ROARING, RIP SNORTING, WHISKEY DRINKIN', GOD FATHER OF THRASH.. THAT BLESSED US WITH.. MOTÖRHEAD♠️!!! I CANT IMAGINE WHAT IT WOULDVE BEEN LIKE TO HAVE HAD LEMMY AS A FRIEND?! ITS COOL TO HEAR HENRY REVEAL SOME OF THE MOMENTS HE SHARED WITH HIM.. YOU DIDNT HAVE TO KNOW LEMMY TO MISS HIM.. I SURELY DO.. AS WELL I KNOW THAT MANY MANY OTHERS MISS HIM.. LEMMY'S THE KIND OF GUY THATLL LIVE FOREVER, IN OUR HEARTS, MINDS.. AND EARS TOO! THANKS FOR SHARING THAT HENRY.. AND R.I.P LEMMY♠️

Lemmy and Henry, both amazing beings

Miss ya Lemmy.

I still miss Lemmy, but vids like this one help me remember his life & enjoy it, rather than get mopey & sad, and we all know King Lem'd rather we laugh & enjoy his life than cry & whine about it, so here's to raising a glass to the King!?

We all miss Lemmy.

I miss Lemmy! We all miss him ! I just turned 52 this August I’ve been listening to Motörhead scene I was 13 “ No sleep till hammer smith “ the first album I ever heard and was I hooked R I P The word will never be the same!

Rip lemmy Henry Rollins is awesome

Lem was a great. Gave me his business card in 1989. i was 19 and nobody he didn't have to. it's framed. we met a few times after that. always a gentleman. class.

this is one of the best videos i've seen in a long time. RIP Lem

Ive been a fan of Henry since the album weight. Iv seen him live with his spoken word and hundreds of hours on you tube clips, I've heard him talk about every subject under the sun but hearing him talk about Lemmy is my favorite.

lemmy was so smart and awesome. i so wish i coulda met him and seen motorhead in conert

Henry Rollins talking about Lemmy... Oh man... This video made my day, thnx...

America really took Lemmy to their hearts.

Cant believe I live in a world where there will never be a new Motörhead album or a tour and that makes me sad :(

This was great.

Yeah man the guy was in Hawkwind ,enough said .RIP

Henry tells the best stories.

Mr. Rollins you're always a class act. Roll on! :)

I miss you Lem! ♥♥♥

a true icon,i remember the foo fighters going back stage before a gig,they were invited or went into lemmy's dressing room,whereupon lemmy says,lets have a drink,and proceeded to hand each band member a bottle of jd,fukkin epic or what.

Crazy how we all miss Lemmy :( I was lucky enough to meet him in 89 or 90 at a bar after the show and he bought us all a round of shots. I didn't and don't drink but that might I had a shot with Lemmy at 19 years old \m/

I love this so much : ) there is nobody now like Lemmy or Henry either, there never will be either......

Back in the 80's I had breakfast with Henry at my friends house. Great time.

Lemmy was that crazy grandpa everyone would love to have :')

My first live Metal concert was Motorhead at the Maritime Hall in San Francisco with members of MetallicA on Lemmy's birthday. Never will forget that. Neither did my eardrums for about 3 days 🤘🤕

''So Lemmy from Motörhead passed away a year ago..'' *Applause* Cool

Read "White Line Fever", Lemmy's autobiography, and you'll see that this is all true

God I miss Lemmy.

Between Henry's description, and Dave Grohl's "stacks of pornos, and magazines, like an episode of hoarders!" I wish I could have seen Lemmy's apartment!

LEMMY 4 EVER

Nailed it!!!

Miss him so much...

Love you Lemmy...RIP

Great show.Thank you for posting this.R.I.P.

"Lemmy gave me a sword."

thx so much for sharing :)

Aw that's such a wonderful story. YES!!!!

I like henry but I only watched it because of lemmy!

A brilliant man talking about his experience with a fucking Legend. Raise your glass motherfuckers

What a great STORY !

Just amazing rip big fella

My Heroe ❤😊

This video is a dream, man.

there are seldom few people on this planet who could say to Lemmy "WHAT? i can barely hear you, you're so quiet!" and he would laugh. Henry would be one of those people.

I can legit hear lemmy say these words like no matter what

I wish I would've been routinely insulted by Lemmy

You saw the Beatles play the Cavern Club? Yeah, they were really good. YA THINK???

This was a great story.

Nice tribute..

I wish I could speak with Henry to say !! ... gather together !! Alan Davey , Mikkey Dee , Phil Campbell , Henry Rollins - a reconstructed Motörheaded Band of Kings ... shortly after Lemmy passed the immediate thought was Henry & Alan would be awesome to carry on with Phil & Mikkey . They're just too f'ing fantastic to fade away ... rock n roll fantasy Why Not !?!?

Its true that god does not belong on earth but god Damnit we still miss him

Lemmy and his sword. This wouldn't be the first legendary story about Lemmy's sword or dagger... A little known fact... The first time Keith Emerson stuck a dagger into his organ/synth (something that was a well-known part of his stage performance) was not with ELP but when he played in the band called the Nice. Keith had this idea that he wanted to stick a blade into his organ to hold down a note and just for the effect of using a knife onstage. Lemmy, who was a roadie at the time and was already a collector of Nazi paraphernalia and things of that sort, had a dagger with (I believe) the German cross on it and Keith wanted to use it. So Lemmy let him borrow it and that became a staple in Keith's act. This was also the inspiration for the surprisingly violent early Genesis song "the Knife."

Love bro.

Awesome

Met MrHenry Rollins in Quwait many years back. Mess call was a good meal.

And he lived up to the ripe age of 70

I have known Hank Garfield for many many years.....good guy.....

Who would win a wrestling match Lemmy or God? Trick question Lemmy is God \,,/

❤❤❤👍

Love Henry and Lemmy. Henry's voice sounds like Murray from the Goldbergs.

Lemmy, the man....

Henry called Lemmy "a disappointment" when he first met him. Somehow he was upset that Lemmy was drunk.

Soo. ... The Lemmy Wisdom here is. STAY ON TOUR. It’s the only way to connect with people.

ETERNAL

What Lemmy said about life before rock and roll and discovering Elvis is exactly what Billy Connolly has said. In Billy's words, before rock and roll "the world was beige and the music was CRAP!" But once they heard 'Heartbreak Hotel' it was like "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT???" And the world instantly became a far better place.

"Who would win a fight? Lemmy or God?" "Lemmy" "Arghh" "God" "Trick question...Lemmy is God"

If you've never seen Henry Rollins live, you need to. I listened to him speak for over 2 and a half hours doing his slideshow. It was absolutely wonderful and he took no breaks.

'There are only three good rock'n'roll bands in the world : the Beatles, the Ramones, AC/DC and Motörhead' (c) Lemmy

Love how he tells story’s about lemmy ♠️ tbh Henry sounds like Trevor from gta a lil bit

Henry Rollins " Standard issue street soldier "

I love how Americans think we are 'burning' them or being mean, its literally just banter. Kinda makes them a bit innocent and naive lol. Its amazing how similar the UK and the US are but still so vastly different.

Lemmy
