Iggy Pop – The Passenger (1977)
Directed by: Simon Taylor
The Passenger, one of Iggy Pop’s most renowned tracks from the 1977 album ‘Lust For Life,’ showcases his vivid lyricism and the song’s iconic, taut guitar riffs. Despite being released over four decades ago, it only received an official video in 2020, directed by Simon Taylor of Tomato Studio. This song, a staple of Iggy Pop’s repertoire, narrates nocturnal journeys, reflecting a sense of movement and observation, inspired by rides in David Bowie’s car. Its enduring appeal is evidenced by its use in numerous movies, TV shows, and advertisements, highlighting its influence across various media.”
