Over The Top: The Rarities is a compilation album released in 2000 by the British band Motörhead on the Sanctuary Records label. It features rare alternative recordings of several songs throughout the band's history.
Most of the included tracks are alternative versions of well-known early Motörhead songs such as Capricorn, as well as two songs under new unofficial titles; "Lemmy Goes To The Pub" (alternate version of "Heart Of Stone") and "Same Old Song, I'm Gone" (alternative of "Remember Me, I'm Gone"). Also included is a collaboration with Girlschool, a recording of "Please Don't Touch" under the combined band name of HeadGirl.
