Description

Since *Préliminaires*, we know that Iggy Pop can express himself in ways other than roaring over splintering guitars and making the powder scream. Guided solely by his intact artistic aspirations and a vital need to get to the core, his conduct has led him to record, under French influence, both artistic and heartfelt, the eleven songs on this re-edition. With these covers of "La Vie en Rose," "Everybody's Talking," "Syracuse," "Michelle," and "La Belle Vie," Iggy isn't trying to prove anything. He simply shines a light on another side of his personality. With a voice as beautiful as it is deep, and one that stirs the soul, Iggy Pop makes these classics his own, shapes them to his dimension, and guarantees a thrill. For this 10th anniversary, he re-records "La Belle Vie," a song composed by Raymond Le Sénéchal and Sacha Distel, co-written by Jean Broussolle and Jack Reardon in 1962. It became a jazz standard in 1963 when Tony Bennett recorded it under the title "The Good Life." Has Iggy Pop buried the hatchet? Nothing is less certain. In the elegance of these arrangements, which betray nothing and catapult the songs to their essence, there is a conviction more dangerous than any weapon!
