With a wide shot of a bravado-filled convoy of gang member cars sailing through New York City, collecting more of their kind along the way, the preceding song said it all.ī2 - "Little Miss Emperor" - a real B side by definition, is nothing overly special. I will never forget the scene in the film "Crocodile Dundee II" where Mick Dundee somehow convinces a (very cheesy 80s Hollywood interpretation of a) NY Gang to accompany him on a raid on a drug dealer’s home. Comparatively tame lyrics about the follies of youth and the motives for being cool and wild, conveyed in poignantly honest and simple language. The original, true 80s pop rock at a standard 3.37 minutes, perfect for radio play and all that. Even so I felt it dragged after the first few minutes.ī1 is undisputably the reason for obtaining this. They are rudimentary by today's standards but they may have been interesting or exciting back then. Iggy's lyrical "stutter", which is done ad nauseum). Promotional Music video of Iggy Pop's hit 'Real Wild Child (Wild One)', from his 1986 album Blah-Blah-Blah. Yes, there are some interesting effects (e.g. Iggy Pop: Real Wild Child (Wild One): With Iggy Pop. Even when considering the technology of 1986 I thought this was excessive. The A side, an 8.28 epic extended remix from the days where "extended" usually meant not too much more than lengthening the intro and outro, comes across as waaay too long. How do you judge an all time classic? There's no denying that "Real Wild Child (Wild One)" is one of those fantastic tracks that will always be cooler than so much of the bollocks that emerged from the eighties.Įven so, although we are talking about only 3 tracks here, this release is a little disappointing.
