Saw the movie 250 times probably before the age 20 own the movie today and played that damn soundtrack 10,000 times. Great song best soundtract great movie
This is one of Iggy's best tunes, the original features Steve Jones ex - Sex Pistols on guitar, this version is a pretty close second considering the original was recorded in 1984
Iggy is what, just under 70 here? Yet he still finds a reason to take off his shirt - and he's in better shape than I am at this time. One of the great front men, the last of his era. Josh Homme et al are fabulous backing him up, I hope this partnership lasts.
I found the movie - and subsequently this song - because I heard Michael Nesmith was executive producer. Now I know that it's one of the best movies ever, that Emilio Estevez can act, and that this is one of Iggy's best songs, a great little punk song by one of the greats.
Iggy Rules! of course. This is a great version (better than the 80s tinny recording) with a seminal backing band - what a perfect combo. I love the so-Iggy lyrics - "I was ridin' on a concrete slab, down a river of useless flab". Lyrics of existential desolation. Iggy Rules!
Well, I've been enjoying it since the film was released in 1984 - I bought the original soundtrack LP.. Has it ever been released on an Iggy Pop album?
FANTASTIC! Just loved the movie's opening music but didn't know who it was from even though I'd seen the Iggy Pop - Repo Man thing in the credits, I wasn't smart enough to connect the two along with ALL the other great music on the sound track. Way to go MR POP!
Beyond a doubt the best band Iggy ever played with outside the stooges. Josh, sorry about your family issues, hope the kids make it thru all this ok. Stay strong brother.
Is that Josh Homme? He's overplaying the intro. The power chords should be prominent. The octaves need to take the backseat. Iggy sounds better than ever
I like his band when he had Carlos Alomar on Zombie Birdhouse. The Sales brothers were pretty good too, as was Steve Jones and James Williamson, not to mention Bowie toured in Iggys band. He's had some good backing over the years, all due respect to QOTSA
I'd rather have Clem and Nigel from Blondie with Steve Jones on guitar over these jokers any old day.. I mean they do the song well enough, based on the original version of course..
i was riding on a concrete slab, down a river of useless flab it was such a beautiful day i heard a witchdoctor say, "i'll turn you into a toadstool" i'm looking for the joke with a microscope my muscle's twitching on your words if you're on the streets you lose your nerves divinity throws you a curve sticks you and then you go beserk abhoaring no inspiration. i'm looking for the joke with a microscope page out of a comic book a chicken hanging on a hook a river and a babbling brook a sermon and a teenage hook shaking my hand at your fake face a suicide a certain look a microphone a loose guitar people feeling near and far stupidity a mental scar put cruel into cruelty as life goes by you in a blurr an achoholic has gone far everything just goes to far i was pissing on the desert sands, when the desert whispered to me, "damn! isn't this a shame? things will never be the same..." i run this gas and oasis now i'm looking for the joke with a microscope i was a teenage dinosaur, stoned and obsolete i didn't get fucked and i didn't get kissed i got so fucking dense using my head for an ashtray now i'll tell you who i am i'm the repo-man and i'm looking for the joke looking for the joke i'm looking for the joke with a microscope

Probably never in the history of American cinema has there been such a perfect marriage of film and song. Magnificent on every level
Best film soundtrack I can think of
Repo Man is so underrated is a crime. One of the greatest movie soundtracks ever. Had the whole early 80s punk scene on wax
British director.
Saw the movie 250 times probably before the age 20 own the movie today and played that damn soundtrack 10,000 times. Great song best soundtract great movie
Agreed. Fantastic soundtrack! I wore this cassette out.
Only movie that matters
the Plugz rule...Iggy backed by half the Sex Pistols. Harry Dean Stanton...King Archie! Iggys best song since the Stooges
@@DaveAnchovies and the Circle Jerks cameo
Seen the Criterion blu-ray? I've had it on VHS, DVD and now that. Still fresh!
the best poetry is always written in the dirt
This is one of Iggy's best tunes, the original features Steve Jones ex - Sex Pistols on guitar, this version is a pretty close second considering the original was recorded in 1984
I never realized that was Jones on guitar!
Jonesy!!
dude, thats josh homme on guitar. How could it be bad?
I agree, this is great, but the original is THE BEST!!!
The life of a repo man is always intense ... find one in every car- you'll see
Common Sense He was too, you boys.
Well played!
Let's get a drink...

I was just thinking it's not metabolism but he probably always has worked harder x 10 than us average hard working guys.
More proof that Iggy was why the trunk was so hot! 🔥
well, hips dont lie
Saw Iggy in the early 90s
The life of Iggy is always Intense
Love that drummer...solid grooves, stays in the pocket keeps the song moving...tight.
yep, that is him.
Clem Burke??
Agreed
Fkn genius... I can’t stop twitching!
Queens of the Stone Age ??
holy shit, josh homme on guitar!

All facts, especially it being one of the best movies ever.
"I was a teenage dinosaur ..stoned and obsolete..."
"I didn't get fucked, and I didn't get kissed. I got so fuckin' pissed!"
@@jefftateii9403 "Using my hand for an aaaaashtray." I love that line, I don't know why. Great song, fantastic film. Nothing else to say.
@@jefftateii9403 love that line, what a song/performance. He's a legend
Freakin monstrous!! Best ever film.
I was workin in a mental Institute
When i saw the movie.
DOUGLAS HOTCHKISS l hope you didn't Take it out on them
love this song, Iggy still got it. Classic.
This brings me extreme joy
Iggy Rules! of course. This is a great version (better than the 80s tinny recording) with a seminal backing band - what a perfect combo. I love the so-Iggy lyrics - "I was ridin' on a concrete slab, down a river of useless flab". Lyrics of existential desolation. Iggy Rules!
The production on the original is awful, the demo version is better.
Love him
i love it how this gem went under the radar for so long and it wasnt till the 2010s until there was an audience which could digest this iggy pop gem.
What??? This song has been a well-known jam since the movie was released in 84.
@@middlefingermotionpictures4772 i can assure you as a veteran iggy pop fan this tune went over looked for many years.
Well, I've been enjoying it since the film was released in 1984 - I bought the original soundtrack LP.. Has it ever been released on an Iggy Pop album?
@@drengskap never!
@@drengskap i read in an interview (2010s hipster newspaper one) he said it didnt fit with his other stuff and he felt it was rushed.
...one of my all-time favorite indie movies from the '80s -- love this version of the title-track with Homme and co.!
Keeeerist! Still pitch perfect 32 years after the fact.
2020 ... still fkn genius
what a band behind Iggy
"Put it on a plate son, you'll enjoy it more."
Best damn song on the lot.
one of his best songs of that era
I didn’t recognize that as being Iggy until the 2:50 mark!
FANTASTIC! Just loved the movie's opening music but didn't know who it was from even though I'd seen the Iggy Pop - Repo Man thing in the credits, I wasn't smart enough to connect the two along with ALL the other great music on the sound track. Way to go MR POP!
Iggy es un genio!!! 😍🤘🔥❤️
Class song
Love the song meaning is there
Shout out to Josh almost wiping out at 4:23
In studio 2016 « Repo Men »👍 Iggy today have a beautiful voice❤️
Vi la película con Emilio Estévez , alta ciencia ficción, algo desprolijos los efectos , alta peli 80' y este tema
Iggy Pop one of the best singers in the world
Masterpiece 🏴☠️⚡🏴☠️🤙✌️🕊️
Well I didn't know this recent recording existed, shit this is cool!
I found that quite uplifting!!!!
Man, the first time I heard this, I broke up with my girlfriend and got a tattoo.
Malcom490 You are BADASS
Ironic, Iggy has no tattoos...
Only under his feet but you wouldn’t know
Otto, what about our relationship?
what?
What about our relationship!?!
.....pftftf, Fuck that
The voice-
Holy shit! This is great! One of my favorite films and soundtracks, and this performance is everything I could hope for. Thx!
After the Tattoo, I got me a mountain bike, and I roamed the neighborhood and joined the neighborhood watch program while, completely stoned.
WOW!
Great!!!!
Yes love you what ever
genial IGGY
Thank you!
Great song I saw the movie back in 1983 and I worked as a Repo man when I was in college.
!!!

@3:44 - The best god-damn part of the song.
The greatest movie theme ever.

All hail.
Punk rock had never been this punk before
最高
IGGY !
Beyond a doubt the best band Iggy ever played with outside the stooges. Josh, sorry about your family issues, hope the kids make it thru all this ok. Stay strong brother.
すげえかこいい ゾクゾクする 暴れる

Best movie ever
I was named after the movie
They spelled Otto wrong.
Outto? Hahahaha outta parts??????
Otto parts?
Tienes esta sesion completa? esta chingonsisima, la quiero bajar y ya la quitaron espero me puedas ayudar
Of all the music types that say "fuck you" to authority, punk rock is right up there with them.
Is that Josh on guitar. Sounds like him
👽👍!!!
Hello
69 at the time...incredible.
"A Monkee that new what it took"
声出てるなあ‼️ゴッドファーザーパンク‼️いくつなんだ？
Well I am straight
Plate 'o shrimp.
Hey man! No one called Pablo Picasso an asshole!
going to make a molicule change it many timesand make it ryme
Sounds like a Desert Sessions song
It's an Iggy original, theme from the Repo Man movie 1984
My friend had a labotamy
Plate
He don’t have to read the lyrics he lived them
Can anybody tell me why they recorded this song again?
Maybe ‘cause it is fun.
It’s awesome.
Why not?
...but, what's a "bertiful" day?
It's "burgerful"
@@alexcoxfilms and what does that mean?
@@alexcoxfilms full of burgers?
get up and break something
What does Iggy say at the very end?
Here comes success
Is that Josh Homme? He's overplaying the intro. The power chords should be prominent. The octaves need to take the backseat. Iggy sounds better than ever
Iggy looks old.
compared to who and what??? that's actually JENNIFER ANISTON singing in this video.
Iggy finally has the band he deserves.
James Williamson? have u heard Kill city? New values?
I like his band when he had Carlos Alomar on Zombie Birdhouse. The Sales brothers were pretty good too, as was Steve Jones and James Williamson, not to mention Bowie toured in Iggys band. He's had some good backing over the years, all due respect to QOTSA
I'd rather have Clem and Nigel from Blondie with Steve Jones on guitar over these jokers any old day.. I mean they do the song well enough, based on the original version of course..
"Finally"?? Huh? Was the band he created in 1967 not good enough?
This band is a genuine tribute. Iggy deserves it.
