If the "commercial success" criteria were taken out, a real list would include a lot more than two Stooges songs.

@@julianbrunet6290 Yeah but their taking that into account is causing them to miss a LOT of awesome songs that weren't hits (like all Stooges songs. Too far ahead of their time) and are frankly better that some of the hits.

I'm gonna say it...I'm surprised he still alive. between him and Bowie I honestly thought Iggy would be the first to go. I'm not saying I wanted him to die instead of Bowie, I'm just saying, He's truly lucky to be alive with the amount of drugs and f-up self-destructive shit he did to himself.

Well, Bowie smoked cigarettes like a champ and never quit, which is a good way to get cancer. Lou Reed got Hep C a long time ago, which is also a good way to get cancer, usually liver cancer. I would agree that Iggy was the most self destructive of the three when he was younger, but he managed to avoid any permanent damage. He’s the Teflon Don!

Iggy pop is one of my favorite artist of all time, but this list didn't really show the best. His pop sound is okay, but its when he is in his rock or punk erra when he is at his best. Like why the hell is "bang bang" on there, songs like: 1.No fun 2.tight pants 3.passenger 4. i wanna be your dog 5. i got a right 6.down the street 8.lust for life 9. raw power 10. louie louie not really in that order but some of his heavier stuff is a lot better.
