Top ten reasons that Lemmy is the god of rock.
by Leif Hedenskoog

10. Lemmy hasn't had a legitimate place to live since September 16th, 1980. He's been on tour for 26 years straight.
9. When Lemmy breaks a bass string, he restrings his bass with somebody's spine!
8. Sources confirm that Lemmy was, in fact, born with leather pants on
7. Many people who claim to be deaf are lying.

In reality, they've chosen to only hear Motorhead songs.
6. Many people who actually are deaf, became that way after seeing Motorhead live.
5. Lemmy trained with a mystic in the Burmese Mountains, in the ancient art of using low frequencies. As a result, Lemmy knows how to rock your pants offliterally.
4. Lemmy once talked David Lee Roth and Robert Plant into having a knife fight. He then mended their wounds with the shear power of his own voice.
3. Lemmy has subsided on a diet of only Whiskey and Marlboros since the age of four
2. Like Keith Richards, Lemmy often needs to get blood transfusions. The only difference is that Lemmy gets blood transfusions from Keith Richards.
1. Motorhead has written the same album 26 times, but somehow they all keep getting better.
0. Lemmy is, in reality, the wizard Merlin. Or, rather, the wizard Merlin was actually Lemmy.

Ok, maybe that was eleven reasons. So what.
