    Not alone - Hawkwind version is far better imo.

    And yes, Motörhead is a band named after a song - not the other way round!

    I saw Hawkwind (complete with Stacia), at Newcastle City Hall in 1974, definitely the loudest band I've ever seen. My ears were ringing still the next morning. One idiot down the front stuck his head inside one of the massive PA speakers and stayed there the entire gig. :confused::confused::confused:

    There's a grim Beady Eye song called 'Beatles And Stones', which is Liam Gallagher probably at his worst.

    And there's the "Beatles and the Stones" by the House of Love which is not grim at all.
