I voted for "Lust For Life" ahead of "The Passenger" but I need to remedy my ignorance of solo Iggy outside of that album, because my third choice would be "Candy" which I LOOOOVE and I figure if I like that I'll find things to like in the rest of the catalog. I mean "Candy" has an overheated lyric, and I giggle when I listen closely to Iggy struggle to hit and hold the notes, but I love the way the chorus bursts out of the clipped-guitar verses.

To my ears, "Candy" is absolutely the worst thing he's ever done (and that includes licensing "Lust for Life" to Carnival Cruise lines et al.)

Yeah, that's not great either -- but it doesn't make me wince like "Candy" does.
