Henry Rollins played this for me the other night (on his radio show…..) and he was right in proclaiming it’s some of Iggy’s better lyrics. It’s not the amped up Iggy of early Stooges days, rather it’s an insightful and wacky one. I’d never heard this song before but Rollins said it was all over the radio, like every hour, when he first moved to L.A.
You can listen to Rollins’ broadcast HERE, which I suggest you do. He opened with this track and one other, “Your Electric Guitar” by a band called Empire made of former Generation X members, which absolutely owns. Check it out.
