This was one of Iggy's many collaborations with David Bowie. By the way - Iggy was originally asked to be the drummer for the MC5, but decided he'd rather front his own band. I'd recommend Iggy's song, 'Lust for Life'. Or, 'I Wanna Be Your Dog'.

Siouxsie and The Banshees do a cover this that I actually prefer. I'm an Iggy fan from way back, but when Siouxsie did it, I don't know, it just felt better. Same with Dear Prudence, I prefer Siouxsie's take on it. They stay very true to the originals, but own it.

There’s way more to Iggy Pop than what you can glean from a single listen. He and David Bowie were longtime friends and collaborators in both music and sobriety. And he’s still making music. In fact, one of my favorite songs of his is the 2016 song “Gardenia” that he recorded with Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age. Perhaps a good direction to head into from here would be the David Bowie song “China Girl,” written by Iggy Pop and with Stevie Ray Vaughan on guitar. Iggy Pop released his own version of “China Girl,” as well, but the Bowie version is the standard.

"The Passenger" was a single from Iggy's "Lust for Life" album which relaunched his career following the demise of the Stooges and the birth of Punk. Bowie produced the album and plays on the track. The concept is taken from the brilliant art-film of the same name from acclaimed director Michaelangelo Antonioni. Punk, like other modern art, was about honest and powerful expression and the song aligns with the films vibe. Hit "Lust for Life" next followed by "Nightclubbing," "Funtime," and "Real Wild One." You've got to do more Stooges. "Search & Destroy," "TV Eye," "1969."

Candy is THE greatest duet in history. And coming from an old school country fan like me, that really means something cause if you beat out the old Conway Twitty/Loretta Lynn records, you've made quite an accomplishment. Iggy's voice sends chills up your spine in the first verse, then Kate does the same in verse 2. But when they hit that 2nd chorus together, o man it can take your breath away and bring tears to your eyes. Their voices are so perfect together.

Iggy is best experienced live. He puts on a show you won’t forget. I saw Iggy and the Stooges at the St Clair Shores Civic Arena (outside of Detroit) back in 1974 or 75. (Also on the bill that night was the Bob Seger System). What a show. Iggy does crazy things on stage like putting an ice cube down his pants and then fishing it out and giving it to a female fan who then put it her mouth. He was one of the first to dive into the crowd. At a show in 1968 at a venue called Mother’s in Romeo, Michigan he was arrested for exposing himself onstage. The charges were reduced to disorderly conducts and he was fined $41. The music is great but the show is amazing.

If you want to stick with Iggy's solo career, there is the ubiquitous Lust for Life (not my favorite) or Real Wild Child or Sister Midnight.

You know this is the lead singer of THE STOOGES right ?? check out some picturesnof iggy pop live performance and it may shock you. They aren't this huge jazzy band they are like early punk, and the times were different so it hits different and occupied a different space in music than now if that makes sense. This is a good representation but not the only one. With time you'll understand the context more. Its a overarching theme more than focus on one specific song, not that they are "concept albums" but just attacked and built a certain way with a certain intent of expression. You need to SEE Iggy perform a little and maybe youll get it a bit more.

I remember watching footage years ago of Iggy in the UK in 1977 at the Manchester Free Trade Hall. A couple of Roadies carried him onstage, propped him up at the microphone stand, they gave him a shake to wake him up and he looked really confused, they pointed at the audience and then he cottoned on to where he was and why he was there. He then launched into The Passenger, brilliant. The Band he used David Bowie later teamed up with for his Tin Machine project.

That dead pan, ho hum, quaalude atmosphere WAS the point of what he was doing with that album. It’s a hallmark of his music. There’s a unique, dry, ironic edge and deliberate seemingly dumb simplicity to his music that is actually genius. Listen to that whole album and his album The Idiot and I think you’ll get what he was going for.

Hey guys, my introduction to Iggy was early 1970 when someone had the first Stooges album and I walked in while "I Wanna Be Your Dog" was on. This was still the peace and love Woodstock era and I couldn't believe my ears. Who was snarling those lyrics? What a nasty riff! I liked it! Maybe start with that if you want to try more. Pure punk to me.

You gotta check out the stooges. i love it all, but funhouse is my favorite album by them! he was on the detroit episode of parts unknown or no reservations with anthony bourdain (rip) that was fantastic! Lust for life is another killer solo piece on the trainspotting soundtrack i think you guys will love, EVERYTHING you guys missed here.

Iggy gave a copy of the Stooges’ first album to my friend, who was the resident night manager at the Pop’s apartment building. My friend didn’t dig it, so gave it to me. I never met him personally, but Iggy did crawl across the seats at a concert at Hill Auditorium in Ann Arbor and sing nose to nose in my face! His singing with and the music of the Stooges is the best!

The Godfather of Punk. The real choice for Iggy would have been his band The Stooges - "Search and Destroy", "1969", "Raw Power", "Down on the Street". Or if you it is Iggy solo, "Lust for Life" or "Kill City"

Hey guys. I wouldn't have suggested Passenger as the first Iggy song to listen to actually. I would have started with some Iggy and the Stooges. Something from the album Raw Power from 1973 perhaps. SEARCH AND DESTROY would be an excellent next song to react to. Fun fact: IGGY just received the Polar Music prize for 2022 (which is awesome), so you'll probably be hearing a lot about him in the coming days...

Fun Fact: Iggy Pop makes a cameo- or is at leastentioned in-- almost every Jim Jarmusch film. My personal favorite..."Dead Man" (early Johnny Depp). PS. even though it's almost cliche, you probably should have started with "Lust for Life." And just like MC5- another Detroit band-- this is punk way before punk.

This was the second phase of his career sound wise. He’s The Godfather of punk and his best and most famous sound was what he made with the Stooges, arguably on the Raw Power album. Please do “Search and Destroy,” and the whole Raw Power album.

The Stooges, along with friends, The MC5 basically invented “Punk Rock”. Siouxsie & The Banshees do a great cover of this song.

Thanks for the Iggy A&A, but you missed the easy A on this album. Title cut - "Lust For Life" is the complete rocker with everything you were missing from "The Passegner". You have absolutely heard the drum riff from "Lust For Life" it's been used on many commercials and talk show intros.
