  • Choose life

  • @Rageagainsttm1 choose a job

  • @merocket Choose a family.

  • It is 11:00 o'clock in the morning. I have a hemorraige in my right eye from fighting in the bar. My girlfriend is passed out and can't get up and cook. My dog has been missing for about 12 hours... but, I got Iggy.

  • @teden20 Did you find your dog?

  • @teden20 you fuckin rock

  • I love Iggy but prefer Grace Jones's version of Night Clubbing - it's sharper and funkier.

  • @Mermaid6996 lmao!!!! youre funny

  • @Mermaid6996 coz u are a retard like ure family 

  • the moment i heard this on trainspotting i fell in luv with it

  • @JimmyCrackroach same here bro

    Gut punch of weary adrenaline.

    Deplorably ecstatic 4am decisions.

  • Francis Begbie Ruleszzzzzzzz

  • Wow! Been a Bowie fan for many years and knew of the connection with Iggy but  never checked this stuff out. Sweeeeeet! Thanks for posting!

  • We're an ice machine

  • This is the drum track Trent Reznor used on "Closer" in 1994

  • @Brutus1Buckeye Oasis stole it for 'Force of nature" and made no attempt to modify/change it like Trent did.

  • @amcd981 if it aint broke... no need to fix it.... best drum intro into a song ever

  • @getyourwifeout I love both bands. Noel Gallagher is a genius also :)

  • @Brutus1Buckeye the beat was also used in marilyn manson's dope show

  • i get the weirdest vibe from this song.

    I feel like it's about a guy who thinks he's having fun but is in a hell-hole or something.

  • @thegreatstephano

    that description makes me think of high school for some reason...

  • @thegreatstephano I feel like it's a guy who in terms of partying has seen and done it all (like Iggy) and has a jaded view of the whole scene. Especially at the end where he's doing the talking bit and goes "Ohhh, isn't it wild..."

  • "The Idiot is the best David Bowie album," very true.

  • Didn't have sex for a while-last night I went out singin this mantra... got back home this evening. At last, i found my battle chant

  • Not Iggy at his best but still 100 times better than the chart drivel that the arch nob shiner corperate shite mongers throw at us today.Doormonkey63

  • mighty bowie..

  • Trainspotting used this song well. I love it anytime I'm going out after dark...

  • i <3 Iggy Pop

  • i think the human leagues version is 100x better!

  • listen to Oasis - Force of Nature

  • @somewhatanalog my dear friend,we don`t sniff...we snort..

  • Great song. Grace Jones did it justice.

  • @frankiesmiff Too true!! Good call!

  • Nine Inch Nails - Closer

    Drums

  • May I recommend the book 'An Essential Guide To Music In The 1970s' by Johnny Zero. The author is especially fond of this epic tune.

  • were nightclubbing

  • This song makes me want to have sex.... There I said it..

  • @jesuscat29 baird.

  • need only 1 bullet

  • @willpimptube . . .to kill yourself. I think you're right, that would be best! Especially if you are from Dixieland.

  • One of the last songs Ian Curtis ever heard...

  • Such an awesome song....no wonder Marilyn Manson ripped it off.

  • @FaithIsAnnoyed What did he turn it into then? 

  • @Lenjaful The Dope Show.

  • We're all stars now; In the Dope Show...

  • I really like the part from 1:46 till 2:21 (with the guitar <3)

  • beck"s "o maria"

  • This kind of music NEEDS to come back.

  • well what is wrong with this song? how about nothing.

  • ja, you bet meine Freunde. it is freeky. love the Igster. the yankees are good too. and i like the Detroit Red Wings. fuck......why do people ignore the obvious. ja, das ist gut.

  • don't tell me. my coffee table.... is a card board box. my girlfriend gets ridden every night. i do not like coffee. i think the Red Wngs can play hockey. I like the Yankees......and you can suck my fat jew dick.

  • I'm Hypnotized...-____- 

  • I will forever associate this song with heroin.

    Thank you trainspotting.

  • @Vassenato hahahahahahaha ain't that the sad truth

  • @Vassenato I'm glad I'm not the only one.

  • @Vassenato and thank you Iggy Pop for doing dope. Like the saying goes, no junk no soul.

  • Comment removed

  • Grace Jones had this down to a fine art, but hers wasn't a patch on this version.

  • "Living like this... its a full-time business." Trainspotting

  • Gonna go out and do that now.

  • This song was played in Radioheads' 2 webcasts:

    on December 10th 1999

    & on "Thumbs Down" webcast in Jonny's DJ set on November 9th 2007.

  • pfff haha,a comment below mine made me laugh like shit.Iggy pop not "gud"???Not "gud"..ok everyone has the right to have an opinion,sometimes the not so objective opinion.to say this song in not "gud" is to say you have no gift to seed out quality from shit.this is classic,i'm sorry,just my own,little,probably insignificant view,but this song isn't shit.it's teh shit.plus,it made me wanna take a smoke too(trainspotting reminder) peace to all and much love.no hard feelings TehPoke1337.good day!

  • Idiot. 

  • @TehPoke1337 Obvious troll is obvious

  • i smell the motor oil too. it smells like Detroit.

  • @teden20 written in paris, about berlin, and still smells like detroit! I love music.

  • one of best songs ever

  • I can smell the motor oil from the street... Perfect sound-painting.

  • I was walking on a cubana beach....on the floodline,I pod and repeating this song for a long time walking...again and again...I was obsessed by it...totally !!...I was going so strange,in that heat,the sand....so fast!! I LOVE IGGY POP

  • are the lyrics supposed to be ironic?

  • is it a vespa logo? SS:

  • This would be my strip anthem..

  • Iggy-a living god

  • I have the hardest time not picturing people taking heroin when I hear this song. Must get out of my head...

  • @RainPoetry lol i feel the same way

  • @999deauville999 thats true he also watched a werner herzog film just before he topped himsell poor bugger

  • @heaheaheaa the best music you can listen to.

  • Ian, we miss you so much...

  • @limonada454 craig marsh?

  • @fuckamericanidiot Ian Curtis (Joy Division) 

  • @limonada454 oh right, why do you say that?

  • @fuckamericanidiot Ian commited suicide while listening to this album... At least, that's what they say (you know, I wasn't there to corroborate).

  • cool song

  • Great beat, and always great to compare the original to Grace Jones' cover.

  • don`t really like smach-CHOOSE DEATH-still above ground`,thanks......

  • Thank you for put this in the tube!!!

  • I swear I've heard this something like this before. Certainly got a distinctive sound, like Berlin burlesque pre-Nazi era. You can see how NIN and Marilyn Manson were inspired by these guys.

  • 1977's innovation will never come again

  • Superb song and lyrics.

  • This was the album found on Ian Curtis' record player the night he took his life (pardon my morbidity, jus thought it was neccessary to say). Superb album, somethin i would wanna hear before i die.

  • super!!!

  • Music by Bowie, Lyrics and vocals by Pop. This song is sublime and terrific...

  • walkin to ghosts, ridin a devil

  • "We learn dances, brand new dances, like the nuclear bomb..."

    Iggy's themes are unique, subversive in his singular voice. Who else could paint the connection of narcissism and atomic power hip to hip?

    "We're an ice machine."

    Brave artist, brave song.

  • Sie haben dieses Recht meinen Freund!

  • @swampgravy

    well Bowie helped produce this... but toghether those two created a monster of an album, so sublime.

  • Blondie - Atomic, that's pretty good too and is about the atomic bomb and having a night out.

  • @swampgravy Subversive is the word for this song. I love how bored the vocals sound

  • i luv dis song, but it sounds like a soundtrack to an old druk bar hopper! lol

  • i read that trent reznor sampled the drum beat and then inverted it for the Closer beat.

  • no he just sampled the bass drum into closer

  • It reminds me to good times and my former life so much that it hurts to listen.

  • this is it

  • Comment removed

  • lol Closer I know

  • @r4scuache You got that right, brother!

  • @r4scuache *sigh* no. it's not. 

  • @r4scuache yeah i was just thinkin the same thing.....

  • @r4scuache  yep

  • @r4scuache Sounds like Manson took some of this for Dope Show also

  • @r4scuache yes,the drums on "closer" sampled this beat

    anyway,Nightclubbing is truly addictive

  • this is great track for all you opiate users

  • 2ryt

  • Now I see where did Noel Gallagher take the loop for "Force of nature" from. I'm talking about a song of Oasis released in 2002.

    But this 1977's album is amazing, I can't believe I hadn't heard it previously to a couple of days...

  • NIN also used the loop in song Closer ;)

  • quien ers?

  • and butters better than margarine... so what?

  • Only, it isn't.

  • taste is subjective.

  • this song is soooo much better than Trainspotting

  • What? How can you compare a song to a film.

  • He probaly ment "lust for life" from trainspotting.

  • Well he should have put that then.

  • this song is on the soundtrack and in the movie as well

    but its true this song

    is better than that whole movie

  • Yeah I know, but you can't make a comparison between a film and one song from an album. You might have enjoiyed listening to this song rather than watching Trainspotting. But still you can't really compare two different art forms.

  • why not ...its like saying animation is better than ballet...its an opinion stop making it scientific

  • Not making it scientific sir, it's just keeping it in context.

  • alrite adolf,lets not get too priggish over youtube comments,both "lust for life" and "nightclubbing" are on the soundtrack.

  • Name's not Adolf but I noticed the lame reference.

  • great song man

  • train spotting all over again a great blues style tune

  • I use2 in my teens & Ur right!!

  • This is a song to smack up to .. not that I do smack.

  • mass production is a good smack song

  • YEAH
