"I Wanna Be Your Dog" is THE FIRST SINGLE BY THE STOOGES… released ONLY TO RADIO STATIONS as the group's debut single from the band's 1969 self-titled debut album. The riff is composed of only three chords (G, F and E), is played continuously throughout the song (excepting two brief 4-bar bridges). The 3-minute-and-9-second-long song, with its distortion-heavy guitar intro, single-note piano riff played by producer John Cale of the Velvet Underground, and steady, driving beat, gave the cutting edge of the early heavy metal and punk sound. In 20211, the song was ranked number 314 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time.”  Pitchfork Media placed it at number 16 on its list of "The 200 Greatest Songs of the 1960s”.

 

The Stooges, originally billed as the Psychedelic Stooges, also known as Iggy and the Stooges, were an American rock band formed in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in 1967 by singer Iggy Pop, guitarist Ron Asheton, drummer Scott Asheton, and bassist Dave Alexander. Initially playing a raw, primitive style of rock and roll, the band sold few records in their original incarnation and gained a reputation for their confrontational performances, which often involved acts of self-mutilation by Iggy Pop.
