Never heard that before, nice.
Right? It seems so few people have.
There's a saying in poker: you make your easiest money when you're outside your wheelhouse -- the reckless gambler who plays nearly every hand gets paid off like a sultan when they can flop the World's Fair and just bet bet bet away, while the conservative player, who enters a pot about as often as Chevy makes a trade, can steal even significant pots with a well timed bluff.
I think something similar is in play here for musicians. Because Motörhead's (and Ozzy's) usual fare was so different than "1916" (and "Mama I'm Coming Home"), that it's just.. more special.
