Iggy Pop
And it's a - it's a term that's based on contempt it's a term that's based on fashion, style, elitism, satanism, and, everything that's rotten about rock 'n' roll.
Iggy Pop
It's the same thing: I would think, If I can't go out and pull some teenager tonight, maybe I'm no good on stage anymore. And you start to think that you even need it as a motivation. I did, anyway.

When punk began to be a genre, people were going to go out and try to mine it. Some of the better groups, like the Ramones and the Sex Pistols, were very artificial.
Iggy Pop
The most successful stuff is sold to you as indispensable social information. The message in the music is, 'We are terribly, terribly slick and suave, and if you listen to us, you can probably get a leg up in society, too.'
Iggy Pop
Bowie's a real man, and I'm a real woman - just like Catherine Deneuve.
Iggy Pop

Musical types tend to combine the burden of the author with the burden of the actor.
Iggy Pop
My general take on American music since 1969 is that it's just getting stiffer and people are getting more uptight - audience, performance, and palace guard.
Iggy Pop
Something I like to do a lot is just sit by water when there’s a current and just stare into the water. I don’t fish, I don’t hunt, I don’t scuba, I don’t spear, don’t boat, don’t play basketball or football – I excel at staring into space. I’m really good at that.
Iggy Pop
