I really like this album.  It shocked the shit out of me that I do, but the songs are tight, the playing is excellent, and Iggy is as crazy as ever.

Everybody's always tryin' to tell me
What to do.
Don't you try
Don 't you try to tell me what to do.

Look in the eye
Of the savage girl.
Fall deep in love
In the underworld.
Raw power is sure to come
Runnin' to you.

If you're alone,
And you got the fear,
So am I baby.
Let's move on out of here.
Raw power is sure to come
A runnin' to you

Raw power got a magic touch
Raw power is much too much
Happiness is guaranteed.
It was made for you and me.
Raw power honey just won't quit
Raw power I can feel it
Raw power honey can't be beat
Get down and kiss my feet.
- The Stooges, "Raw Power"

What were your top 10 favorite songs or albums of 2007?

Hmmm...things that I discovered in 2007 that may be older or new music?  And why 10?
The ones that come to mind (in no particular order):

• Ike Reilly Assassination - We Belong to the Staggering Evening
• Kings of Leon - Because of the Times
• Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - BRMC
• The Stooges - The Weirdness (this was a surprise - it's a very good album)
• Tegan and Sara - The Con
• She Wants Revenge - This is Forever (good but not as good as their first)
