Motörhead, title track from the 1980 album Ace Of Spades, probably the one song more than any other that defines hard core, head banging, old school heavy metal. I've never been to a biker party or rally where this wasn't played (and I've been to a fair few), the tempo of the music, the power of Lemmy's voice and the sheer speed and fury of the song is just pure unadulterated rock and roll.

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, it makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed
The only card I need is

The Ace of Spades
