Iggy Pop - Living' on the Edge of the Night

I'm not sure if he wrote this one himself. I don't see any evidence that he didn't (Wikipedia is down right now), but it displays far more melody than he usually has when composing alone. Anyway, great song.
Update: it seems Jay Rifkin wrote it.

OMG, Eo...I haven't laughed *that hard* since...yesterday?! lol! This poor old fart! WTF kind of vid was that?! He looked like he was going through drug withdrawals...w/a little Martin Short routine combo of [water and regular] ballet(?) and half-assed karate & odd dance moves(?!) thrown in for good measure! Is it just me or...is it just a *little* distracting, from being able to actually *hear* and focus on the song?! ROFLMFAO!! And the short hair... :-( I would much rather have just seen more footage...of the guitar player! :-P

Yeah, I'd never seen the video before. Just put it behind another window.
It's just how he moves, and really does not fit this song.
