Wow, I thought Death Trip would place higher.

it was my #13, one of my favorites outside of the classics

Hahaha guys I'm unexpectedly busy this week with my bars / my wedding / my housing situation and I'll also be the emergency dj at a friend's party on saturday since the dj they hired bailed and its too late to find a decent one for a big party so I'm not sure I'll be able to post the full results on friday. Is it cool if I post on sunday?

wedding?!? by all means, delay

I mean my wedding is until March but weddings here in Mexico are big (many guests, like 10 hours minimum of dinner/party) and need more time to be planned. Mine will be 500 guests and its considered a 'medium' wedding. I envy the smaller weddings you seem to have in other countries.

So far:

The poll's #45 ("Girls") was my #5
The poll's #38 ("I Got Nothin'") was my #18
The poll's #35 ("Five Foot One") was my #2
The poll's #34 ("Repo Man") was my #6
The poll's #29 ("I'm Bored") was my #17
The poll's #26 ("The Endless Sea") was my #14

I didn't vote for any of the other songs so far, though I like a lot of them. Iggy's catalog is ridiculously deep.

'Dum Dum Boys' too low!

agreed

lol @ excellent "Penetration" pic

Hahaha I was looking for images for Iggy Pop Penetration and it was one of the decent ones that appeared. Way too much porn when you google iggy penetration.

got like a free hour how about I post the next 5? Come ooowwwn

That's it for today! come back on Sunday for the top 20.

i'm so sorry i didn't vote in this, MLB consumed my life for the last few weeks.

Moka, you are doing a fantastic job as always. not sure why hardly anyone is in this thread talking about Iggy?

C'mon ILM, WAKE UP!

*isn't talking about Iggy?

xpost

yea - i mean obviously you dont expect everyone to be interested in the same things as you but i would have thought that this poll and subject in particular might have generated more interest - i am enjoying it all a tonne anyways becuz stooges/ iggy has completely change my whole life and outlook - but yep just sort of trying evaluate what this sorta muted response means - probably nothing sure but i cant help but think about the state of things and this board when you have what a i thought was one of the most iconic figures in 20C music struggling to generate any sort of vague discussion - is he just not interesting anymore or cool or whatever - i mean is that possible, c'mon

not the end of the world i know

but still

Have a nice weekend Moka, but don't forget to vote in the soul albums poll on Sunday!

I will vote on the soul poll on Sunday I promise!

85% of my music diet has been soul and funk for the past month.

And yeah what up ILM is there nothing to say about Iggy? He's like one of the main rock gods of all time come aowwwn! Noone rocks like him.

Discussion or not this poll has made me reconsider kill city and his later material after years of not hearing them and I'm finding a much more sensitive side of him I had never considered.

I want to thank you for this thread, and I am enjoying the yt links. Reading up about Iggy on wiki as well now.

The Kill City stuff is very different isn't it? Remarkable how the Rolling Stones vibe is kept up throughout. Did Iggy do more like this?

Yeah, I'm also genuinely surprised at how relatively quiet this thread is. Nevertheless, you're doing a great job! I didn't manage to get a ballot in but there's only one or two things that I would have voted for that have placed so far!

I know his stuff reasonably well through the 70s, but I still found myself overwhelmed by alternate versions/bootlegs/live recordings/later recordings when trying to prep for the poll, so that might be part of the problem. He does not have a concise discography, even on Tidal. But I'm also surprised by lack of interest.

Peter Noone doesn't rock like him.

8 minutes of previously unseen Iggy insanity, live in 1973:

I guess I need to get _Kill City_. Those tracks are sounding pretty great today.

I have to confess that I have never been overly fond of "Funtime." The other Idiot/LFL tracks that have placed are all great.

New Values is a fun album, but I could only fit two tracks from it on my ballot - "Five Foot One" and "I'm Bored." They were amongst the first Iggy songs I heard - MuchMusic would air the videos fairly often. Iggy wasn't the greatest lip-syncher in 1979.

"Death Trip" and "Penetration" were on my ballot - two of the more disturbing tracks on Raw Power. Didn't have room for "Shake Appeal," but I like it fine.
