+Peter Grantham that makes sense. but which kind of moron. I think I'm a moron for not seeing the darker side of the song until much later. I thought he was saying I won't go anymore.
All of you here cutting him down are dumber than you claim that he is. He's saying it metaphorically, I guess you all missed the life like a magazine reference.
Excellent description, "peels paint off the wall." Certainly appropriate! I saw him twice. Once on the blah blah blah tour, (not my favorite record) where he opened for the Pretenders, and once with the Stooges reunion. Both were great, but the Stooges show was unbelievable! Best shows I ever saw too.
Looks like Iggy ate a BIC pen before they shot this. Great song. Great video too. Saw him a few years ago with Josh Homme on guitar. Incredible set. Couldn't believe the intensity Iggy still had at his age. He's the real thing.
I stare at the concrete The girders rise high The steel's above me There's love in my eyes... Wow!! I've always loved his lyrics. He and Lou Reed.. My two best lyricists.
Saw Iggy back around early 2000's I think it was. Anyway, standing there bellied up against the front of the stage he comes romping out, arms flailing. Talk about energy, the place went nuts. As some others have pointed out, "peeled the paint off the walls". Awesome performer.
If you are into post-punk or new wave/goth wave, we have two new singles you can listen to from our upcoming album “Crisis Of Meaning”. Thanks for your attention!
My introduction to Iggy Pop: I was stationed at Sheppard AFB. I went into town at a music shop and they were playing this album. I bought it right away. And have collected his albums ever since.
I had a friend who had FUNHOUSE on CD and I would play it every time I went to his house, eventually he said "dude, play something else" but it was the best disc he had in his collection
In 1980, I rang Iggy up for some rekkids at Briarwood Mall in Ann Arbor...asked and got his sig which I still have today...been a fan before and ever since.
i saw him in San Francisco in the 2000's. He threw the microphone stand into the wall during the first song! The tech people were like freaked out because he broke like a $300 mic stand--during the first song!! Everyone in the crowd was cracking up!

Story of my life! My first Iggy album was "T.V. Eye Live '77," a cut out bin find recommended by a friend (I later dated his sister w/o his permission - ya makes ya choices in life!). Well, that's all it took. "New Values" changed my life. Been an Iggy fan ever since!
I like the set. It makes him seem pent up, especially since he has to hold back so he won't tear through the plastic. And it gives no frame of reference to be able to tell how short or tall he really is.
i'm looking out my window at Bülowstrasse subway and remembered the pictures of you shot here and meeting you at tabea blumenscheins apt and how great you were and before and since then to this day. authenticity vs karaoke. thank you really- why not move back here its a bit better now
Anyone here remember Iggy's father, Mr. Osterberg? ...He taught at Fordson High (Dearborn, MI) in the early 70's...Even though I never had him as a teacher, I remember him!
I lived in metro Detroit most of my life. I didn't move to Dearborn til 2005 & used to pass that school on my way to Detroit for my GGJ. I remember Iggy from the Grande. My friends & I tried to go every time he & the stooges played there.
Grande Iggy L' Iguana, quando il corpo è segnato e l'anima è quella di un bambino naif, la voce riconoscibile tra mille, raschiante e sfacciata. Quando corri come un pazzo su quel palco e ti butti tra la gente, quando nella vita ti fai male ma, sopravvivi e lo fai cantando... Lust for life!
Who'd have thought that the Ig would feel a need to remove his shirt? I, also, wish life could be Swedish magazines... This album was criminally ignored by the label at the time. It has several great songs, as well as a catchy pop sensibility, not to mention a twisted sense of humor...guess it was doomed to fail...
New Values is a great album.
That it is. Five foot one, I'm Bored, Girls, Endless Sea so many great songs
I'm finding that out myself..totally missed it.
@@GarethGillatt Angel is an amazing song too
Don't look down....
@@emilypalacios7192 ya musnt forget I'm bored
What I like most about this video is that you can't tell whether he's trying to make you laugh or being dead serious, lol
+Dom Cisco That's Iggy. A philosopher and a moron at the same time.
+Peter Grantham that makes sense. but which kind of moron. I think I'm a moron for not seeing the darker side of the song until much later. I thought he was saying I won't go anymore.
+Dom Cisco obviously the song is about being short, but really what does being short mean. I'd say it means just that.
He’s being funny. The funniest things are always when people are being dead serious.
All of you here cutting him down are dumber than you claim that he is. He's saying it metaphorically, I guess you all missed the life like a magazine reference.
Happy 77th birthday Iggy! 🎂 ♥️
I only heard this song for the first time a few days ago. It was on TV. What an awesome song!!
Are you only 5 foot one too? 🤔
Check out his tune, "knocking them down in the city."
Have you heard, I'm bored?
@@Alfred..E..Neumanmaybe he just likes real punk music, shortie
@Ginx-pe4si So, you're 5 foot 1 too? 🤔👌
It's 2022. Yesterday I saw Iggy for the third time in my life. He opened with this song. Undisputed Number 1 or rock'n'roll of all time.
That's Iggy, either you like him or you don't!!
Iggy is just the best and I've been a fan for many years. Live he peels the paint off the wall... Best show I ever saw
i was lucky enough to see him live twice...pealed the paint real good!!
Agreed one of the best shows I've ever seen ever.. I met him afterwards perfect gentleman just wonderful person
Excellent description, "peels paint off the wall." Certainly appropriate! I saw him twice.

Had the chance to see him multiple times in his prime. My friend has stormed the stage when Iggy invited the crowd up. Unforgettable
There is only one Iggy Pop. Never to be replicated.
I just cant trust anyone who dont love The Iggster.
Looks like Iggy ate a BIC pen before they shot this. Great song. Great video too. Saw him a few years ago with Josh Homme on guitar. Incredible set. Couldn't believe the intensity Iggy still had at his age. He's the real thing.
Right on! That would be the show of all shows for me.
Saw him yesterday..incredible
@@danielobriot3116 Either a bic pen or dried blood!
I stare at the concrete
The girders rise high
The steel's above me
There's love in my eyes... Wow!! I've always loved his lyrics. He and Lou Reed.. My two best lyricists.
I don't understand english !
@@gontierfrancois8115 Bonjour c'est bon, mon ami. Je m'apalle Danny merci. Sorry, i try to remember French from school, merci mon ami.
He is an underground icon, he created the soundtrack for generations of freaks and rebels to come.
0:45 *"And I'm doing the things, a five foot one man can do."* I've loved that line ever since I first heard this in '84 on KROQ, when I was 16.

Video probably cost $5 bucks to make. God damn, it's the greatest video ever made.
All the best video's are made on a low budget.
Heh, representation matters... heh...
$5 and a Dexter kill room
If you are into post-punk or new wave/goth wave, we have two new singles you can listen to from our upcoming album “Crisis Of Meaning”. Thanks for your attention!
Cost 5 buck 1

I love this . Funny some people at a party I had in the 80's knew I would play " The Idiot " album so they tried to hide it.
I had a friend who had FUNHOUSE on CD and I would play it every time I went to his house, eventually he said "dude, play something else" but it was the best disc he had in his collection
@@joeflorek5988 ...people, huh?
Same here hahah
The Idiot is a great album!!

Show opener when I saw him this year. It knocked me right outta my shoes. Best show ever
i saw him in San Francisco in the 2000's. He threw the microphone stand into the wall during the first song! The tech people were like freaked out because he broke like a $300 mic stand--during the first song!! Everyone in the crowd was cracking up!
"And I'm doing the things / A five foot one man can do."
From the time you get up until the time you go to bed, that's it.
"I wish life could be swedish magazines"
One of the best lines ever
Young people won't know what it means.
@@murrayirvin3177 Porn mags!!
@@murrayirvin3177 I know that's right, I guarantee they don't know what it means.
I love these classic vids of Iggy in the old days. He's always been an idol

I was considered weird in the 70’s for liking Iggy’s music 😅
Weird is good, stay weird ! 🤘🎸
Ooh and there weren't any drug fueled musicians in the 70s that were stranger? Lol embrace being you
I'm 17 years old, my favorite singers are Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, and David Bowie, and i'm considered weird 😂
This was a stunningly great tour. What a great band he had.
Oh yeah, that line up had teeth. 🤘
Fantastic album. Williamson and Thurston. Wow!
Iggy is the bomb!
I love this song. It's a random pick.
God Iggy,you’re amazing.x Love,Love,Love from Plymouth ,England.x
The clothes never stay on for long do they
No HA ha what's with his teeth? Is it the lighting? I've ever seen them like that
You don't reckon the teeth colour might be for effect do you...?!?
He's a performer... You want him to be NO FUN or BORED 🙄
@@kellygardner1669 He's the Chairman.
Did you see his teeth, it looks like he ate a whole package of Oreos before the shoot.
This is one of the best sounding records ever recorded IMHO
Story of my life! My first Iggy album was "T.V. Eye Live '77," a cut out bin find recommended by a friend (I later dated his sister w/o his permission - ya makes ya choices in life!). Well, that's all it took. "New Values" changed my life. Been an Iggy fan ever since!
The LP is a monster. The Sales brothers just killing it
My first was T.V. Eye as well! Never looked back.
"Raw Power" is also worth checking out. It's a Stooges release from 1973.
I like the set. It makes him seem pent up, especially since he has to hold back so he won't tear through the plastic.
And it gives no frame of reference to be able to tell how short or tall he really is.
Iggy Pop is superhero of punk.
This album and soldier were imho the best of the chemically enhanced solo Iggy albums... pure fire!!!
I saw this video on The Midnight Special when it debuted in the late '70's. The Cars were the host, so they had Iggy on.
How am I just now discovering these videos for Iggy songs I've been listening to for 35 years?
I think Iggy likes black licorice as much as I do
Iggy Pop the original rocker
he didn't hit the scene until about 1970, there were plenty of rockers around before him.
Iggy is and always be the real deal.he created the identity.off a rock god!!
I really love you. Much Love ❤️ Gayle Raye Bremer
I love this album!
You're the only thing that got me though a nut house. I mean it.
Best low budget video ever!
The Master

God we love you Iggy!!!!
I'm gonna find out who's naughty and nice, Clause reference was superb
an ongoing occupation from beginning to end in this world the way I see it. I suppose he may be talking about becoming mall Santa
Present participle!
probably one of my fave songs ever
Kick ass. Happy birthday Iggy!
What's not to love. Could be my favorite Iggy song ever. ❤️❤️❤️
Anyone here remember Iggy's father, Mr. Osterberg? ...He taught at Fordson High (Dearborn, MI) in the early 70's...Even though I never had him as a teacher, I remember him!
I doubt most people on here lived in Dearborn, let alone went to Fordson.
China??????? Do you know Chen's father?
I lived in metro Detroit most of my life. I didn't move to Dearborn til 2005 & used to pass that school on my way to Detroit for my GGJ. I remember Iggy from the Grande. My friends & I tried to go every time he & the stooges played there.
My now ex girlfriend had one of his classes. Didn't Uncle Russ Gibb teach there also?
@@phactreerat Not sure if he did or not-I'll have to ask Klaatu about that.
Manlets anthem.
Yeah. I played this album a lot. 🖤
best song about being five foot one
Love my Iggy
This song is even better when you're Swedish.
why?
Sally Angelworks check the lyrics
I'm 1/4 Scandinavian....does that count?
Typ!!!
I met Iggy working out at Vince Gironda's gym in studio city, I met Hulk Hogan there before Hulkamania, went by Terry.
Iggy appears at 0:51
Iggy as WE all know him...
YES!!! at first it's just "Jim...." but then IGGY arrives.
A Wild (one) Iggy arrives!
Hace 4 años vi al gran Iggy Pop en el show que ofrecio en Lima, fue un lujo verlo en acción!! 👍
Can you understand what he's even saying? 😂
@@AedanBlackheartYes, it's easy, I'm from Michigan.
Album is lovely too..
He just can’t keep his shirt on not for love nor money!
Makes me wna go on a mad binge
The short guy anthem
not Randy Newman's "Short People"? lol
Solo guitar tone at end of track very search + destroy ❤
I've loved this song since I was a wee teen!! ❤️
Short kings anthem
Always yours, mah Iggy
A bottle of aspirin, a sack full of jokes
Wish I could go home with all the big folks...
Genius!!!
0:08 see how Iggy springs up to his feet. Thats how you know hes a surfer
They don't make Rock stars like this anymore.
Great song!
Grande Iggy
L' Iguana, quando il corpo è segnato e l'anima è quella di un bambino naif, la voce riconoscibile tra mille, raschiante e sfacciata. Quando corri come un pazzo su quel palco e ti butti tra la gente, quando nella vita ti fai male ma, sopravvivi e lo fai cantando... Lust for life!
Yess
insanely good song
Love the baritone sax honking in the background.
Where are my manlets at?
My musical taste brought me here...
Anonymous. Wow
Iggy come on , u will het ur monies worth in live show, but the band behind the man
Me too.
Ain't he just gorgeous xx
This channel is awesome. Thank you Iggy!!!!!
IF YOU DON'T GET IT NOW... YOU NEVER WILL........
HE'S AN ICON WHO HAS OUTLIVED THE ICONS.
An Icon, because of Bowie. He's not "magical" just weirdly weird, in a weird kinda sense that weirdly attract weirdness in the weirdest way.
Who'd have thought that the Ig would feel a need to remove his shirt? I, also, wish life could be Swedish magazines...
This album was criminally ignored by the label at the time. It has several great songs, as well as a catchy pop sensibility, not to mention a twisted sense of humor...guess it was doomed to fail...
Actually, Iggy's solo work has never sold especially well in the USA.
Awesome solo by James Williamson. No credit on album, but that's him.
Love you Iggy!
Love iggy
💕💕💕
What was the smoke all about. Killer Backdrop. Love ya Iggy...
Iggy his hilarity is his brilliance!!!
The Idiot
New Values
The Passenger
The Stooges Great Hits.
Lust For Life
Rawr Power.
great songs and albums.
Iggy♡
I so needed to revisit this album today. New Years Salinte!
Such a good song live. Esp when he blew the snot out of his nose straight down onto the stage
Never bored Iggy, ever never bored,Good Blessxxx
I love Iggy.
Im really glad he fixed his teeth y'all...
This song is what got me into Iggy Pop
This one!❤
I will grow somemore Iggy life is Swedish magazine
The king
It gets no better than this
