Singaporeans Suddenly Motörhead Superfans After Reading One ST Article

Singaporeans have entered a state of aggressive performative mourning following the death of the British guitarist, with thousands who previously thought Motörhead was a brand of high-end hair dryer suddenly claiming he was their lifelong inspiration.

Local office workers are frantically refreshing Wikipedia to memorise discographies before their next happy hour, while uncles are dusting off leather vests that haven’t been zipped up since the Cold War.

One self-proclaimed local fan was seen visibly distraught at a hawker centre.

"Wah lau, I listen to him since I was small boy, even though my mother say his music sound like construction site," the fan lamented.
