“I am not singing about dolphins!” WWE legend Triple H had to talk Motorhead’s Lemmy into covering David Bowie and the Rolling Stones
www.loudersound.comLevesque later added: “One of the tracks I mentioned was Sympathy For The Devil. He was like, ‘Ugh.’ He was a big Beatles guy. I was like, ‘Man, to me – that song with your voice on it, Lem – you’re the Devil.’ I talked him into it and it’s the first one he does.”
Levesque then claimed to also inspire Motörhead’s Heroes cover.
“I suggested it: ‘David Bowie, Heroes, you doing that song.’ And he’s like, ‘I am not singing about dolphins!’ [referencing the lyric ‘Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim’]. I was like, ‘Lem! Rewrite the lyrics! Who cares?!’”
