Hello friends of the music,
Today I wanted to post again for #danceweekend, but stayed with #rockclassics. Due to the many construction sites on the highway you got very fast in traffic jams. The week drove a few hundred miles again and clearly I got a few traffic jams. With such traffic jams and such a heat much the mood one has counts. I had a great mood the week. With such a traffic jam I landed on The Passenger of Iggy Pop.
Hallo Freunde der Musik,
heute wollte ich zum #danceweekend wieder mal posten, aber bin beim #rockclassics geblieben. Durch die vielen Baustellen auf der Autobahn geriet man sehr schnell in Staus. Bin die Woche wieder ein paar hunderte Kilometer gefahren und klar habe ich ein paar Staus erwischt. Bei solchen Staus und so einer Hitze zählt viel die Stimmung die man hat. Ich hatte die Woche eine super Stimmung. Bei einem solchen Stau bin ich auf The Passenger von Iggy Pop gelandet.
The song was released 3 times. The first time in 1977 on the album Lust for Life. Then on the single Success in 1977 and finally in 1998 as a standalone single.
The Passenger was recorded in Berlin and David Bowie was also there with the piano and his voice as the backup voice.
There are a lot of covers from the song, one of them is the version of the Toten Hosen.

The Passenger wurde in Berlin aufgenommen und David Bowie war auch dabei mit dem Klavier und seine Stimme.
Von dem Lied gibt es sehr viele Covers, eins zum Beispiel ist die Version von den Toten Hosen.
One of the most famous covers is that of Michael Hutchence of INXS as OST for Batman Forever.

I didn’t know that Bowie worked on that song. Cool. I’ve heard about Bowie living in Berlin in the late 70s but I didn’t know that Iggy Pop was there too.

Man, I remember I first heard this song on a videogame, out of all places. To read this sort of thing and learn more about stuff I overlooked then makes me look back to those days with a new perspective, as if I was discovering it all over again.
Great job!
