More than 230,000 people logged onto YouTube to watch a live stream of Lemmy's funeral in Los Angeles, where the Motorhead frontman's friends and family have paid their respects.
The musician's son, Paul Inder, led tributes to the 70-year-old, who died on 28 December just two days after learning he was terminally ill with an extremely aggressive cancer.
He said: "Travel well, my dear father. You are back on the road for a longest tour to the great gig in the sky - we will never, never forget you. I love you."
According to Mr Inder, who is now a successful record producer, his father had "felt something was wrong" last August and had appeared frail - but never complained that he was in pain.
The private ceremony, which was being held at the Forest Lawn Memorial Cemetery, had a distinctive rock and roll feel - and next to a lectern at the front of the chapel was a table decorated with a top hat, cowboy boots and bottles of Jack Daniel's.
Heavy metal band Metallica said Lemmy was one of the reasons they exist. Scroll through for more
