Platonic
Iggy Pop · Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell [2005]
uniting human form and manufactured heels
go buy in a hurry, buying your chance
you give your best by loving a classic
immoderation seems to suit her best
but then i turn around and she's very delicate
go buy in a hurry, get all you can
give her your best ___________
time has no pull on her soul
when she is here i'm her doorman
I'm __________
oh the coronation when she walks by
even if it's private makes you end your mind
buy in a hurry, go get all you can
you give your best for loving a classic
for loving a classic
for loving a classic
Platonic - Iggy Pop
From the 2005 album Your Pretty Face Is Going To Hell, 'Platonic' stands as a stark, minimalist track that encapsulates Iggy Pop's signature blend of punk energy and theatrical vulnerability. Released during a period where the artist continued to explore raw, unpolished soundscapes, the song strips away excess to focus on rhythmic intensity and a haunting vocal delivery. It reflects the darker, more introspective side of Pop's later work, contrasting with his earlier, more chaotic output while maintaining the rebellious spirit that defined his career. The recording serves as a testament to his ability to craft memorable moments through simplicity, leaving a lasting impression on listeners who appreciate the grit and honesty of his music.
