Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about London Leatherboys. By Songfacts®.

The London Leatherboys are a London biker gang, but that's not how many people interpreted the song. "A lot of people say that was a gay song," lead singer Udo Dirkschneider told us. "But it was not a gay song."

The American album cover, which showed cross-section of a leather clad-biker wearing what looks like S&M gear and holding a ball of some sort, was the impetus for the gay rumors. When we did the Balls to the Wall album, because of the cover, all the people called us then a 'gay metal band,' Udo said. "But, okay, here we go."
