iggy pop & the stooges - Consolation Prizes - Original Punks

[palominox64]

I always thought the line was "keep 'Beware the Queen' between your tits' {i pictured a blingy pendant} followed brilliantly by the line "Yeah,I finally got the message ma-- but this is no time to quit'. And the rest of the song going ten miles Iggy-deep with the irony of having a not-quite intended hookup with a not-quite woman... With all those layers of poignancy and self-reflective and critical irony in an otherwise already brilliant iggy tune, was a masterpiece.

Keep my weapon clean between your tits!

This is the best thing that the Pop and Stooges ever did. Sounds like an outtake from Exile on Main Street, but rocks even harder. That descending chord progression at the start, with the slide guitar on top, really hooks you in. Why isn't the Ig doing this every show of his life?

@harvey1954 Does sound a bit like Exile. Fucking fantastic! Ig didn't sing this at the gig I last went to in London, though. He should!
