I Wanna Be Your Dog

"I Wanna Be Your Dog" is a 1969 song by The Stooges, featured on their self-titled debut album. Its memorable, trance-like riff is composed of only three notes (G,F#,E), and is played continuously throughout the song. The 3-minute-and-9-second long song, with its racous, distortion-heavy guitar intro, and steady, driving beat, is a shining example of the Stooges inventive bluesy/"proto-punk" sound. The song has been covered by many artists, including Slayer, Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, the Sex Pistols, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and many others, as Parálisis Permanente, Narcosis and 12 Garras.

The song is featured in Guy Ritchie's hit film Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels as well as the films Friday Night Lights, The Crow: City of Angels (in which Iggy Pop played the role of Curve, one of the villains) and Crimson Rivers II: Angels of the Apocalypse, the skateboard video by Flip, entitled "Sorry", and in an episode of the TV sitcom How I Met Your Mother (Episode 2.16: Stuff)it was also used in the game vietcong(2002).
