'Ele era um guerreiro e uma lenda', diz Ozzy Osbourne sobre Lemmy

"Perdi um dos meus melhores amigos, Lemmy, hoje. Ele fará muita falta mesmo. Ele era um guerreiro e uma lenda. Eu te vejo do outro lado", escreveu Ozzy Osbourne em sua conta oficial no Twitter, na noite desta segunda-feira, 28, ao saber da notícia da morte do líder do Motörhead.

Lemmy morreu aos 70 anos, em sua casa nos EUA, vítima de um câncer "extremamente agressivo", de acordo com o comunicado emitido pela banda.

Gene Simmons, do Kiss, também usou as redes para se manifestar sobre a notícia: "Descanse em paz, meu amigo", escreveu, ao lado de uma foto com Lemmy. O guitarrista do Queen, Brian May, disse: "ainda imaginando o que posso escrever sobre a morte do nosso incrivelmente único amigo Lemmy". O baixista e compositor inglês Geezer Butler, do Black Sabbath, disse estar muito triste e que perdemos uma "verdadeira lenda". Muitos outros artistas e colegas lamentaram a morte de Lemmy (veja abaixo).

O Motörhead lançou 22 álbuns na sua carreira de quase 40 anos, com aproximadamente 30 milhões de discos vendidos ao redor do mundo.
