If I started thinking too much about how influential I've been, then I'd be more of a turd than I already am.

It's more fun to look at an old picture of me than it is to look at a new one sometimes. Although, I still wear a dress pretty well.

Pussy power's pulling me down, down, down, down. When it's there and I can't have it, I get real real rabid.

I'm not a singer, a walking instrument like Aretha Franklin. When you get an Iggy Pop record, you don't get "Iggy Sings." I am also a style of music, an approach.

The 2 things I like the most are girls and loud noises.

If I don't terrorize, I'm not Pop.

I was a pretty nice kid. Kind of quiet, but quiet in terms I wasn't going out and setting fire to anything. I had a big mouth and I was creative type, you know.
