So this probably isn’t the best version of this well covered song, however, it has the best video clip so this is the one I’m posting. If you are wondering where you might have heard the song before, think back to the film Rain Man with Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise. That version was by The Belle Stars
How Iggy Pop is still alive is beyond amazing. That said, I’m glad he is and is proof that you can live life on your own terms. First heard an acoustic version of this song even though it is one of his quieter ones anyway.
I love the film clip. Such innocence with people just enjoying being young. And I was just as wobbly on a skateboard when I was that age. The only disappointment was reading that the producers of The OC actually organised this version.
Normally I’m not a fan of people who only sing songs with activist type lyrics, however, Sinead O’Connor is an exception. So many songs to choose from.
