Motorhead Snaggletooth Button
After being sacked from Hawkwind in 1975, supposedly for "doing the wrong drugs", Lemmy decided to form a new band, originally to be called "Bastard."
Doug Smith, the band's manager, advised him that, "It's unlikely that we're going to get on Top of the Pops with a name like 'Bastard'."
Lemmy concurred and decided to call the band "Motörhead", inspired by the final song he had written for Hawkwind.
The name of the song "Motorhead" was derived from a slang term for an amphetamine user, the drug being the subject of the song.
