Sunrise, wrong side of another day,
Sky high and six thousand miles away,
Don't know how long I've been awake,
Wound up in an amazing state,
Can't get enough,
And you know it's righteous stuff,
Goes up like prices at Christmas,
Motörhead, you can call me Motörhead, alright

Brain dead, total amnesia,
Get some mental anaesthesia,
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights,
And if I can't be wrong I could be right,
All good clean fun,
Have another stick of gum,
Man, you look better already,
Motörhead, remember me now Motörhead, alright

Fourth day, five day marathon,
We're moving like a parallelogram,
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights,
I guess I'll see you all on the ice,
I should be tired,
And all I am is wired,
Ain't felt this good for an hour,
Motörhead, remember me now, Motörhead alright.....

No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith was recorded during the 'Short Sharp Pain In The Neck' Tour.

Dates were -

27 March 1981: West Runton Pavilion, Norfolk, England
28 March 1981: Queen's Hall, Leeds, England
29 March 1981: City Hall, Newcastle, England
30 March 1981: City Hall, Newcastle, England
3 April 1981: Maysfield Leisure Centre, Belfast, Northern Ireland

Hammersmith was not played on the tour.

The Leeds & Newcastle gigs were recorded and the majority of the album comes from the Newcastle dates due to poor sound at Leeds. Iron Horse was recorded in 1980.

No known video footage of the Newcastle gigs exist so I have made these No Sleep videos with the No Sleep 'Til Hammersmith audio and any available video footage of the songs so the fans can have an idea of how great the band were at this point in time.

The video in this clip is from the Theatre Royal, Nottingham. 20th August 1980.
