Spoken Word Item Of The Day 10/30/2014: Iggy Pop - "The Tell-Tale Heart"



Halloween Week: Today we have Iggy Pop reading Edgar Allen Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart." It was chosen over these other pieces of musicians reading scary things:
  • Taylor Swift reading Carrie
  • Leif Garrett reading The Picture Of Dorian Gray
  • Noel & Liam Gallagher reading Fight Club
  • Sammy Hagar reading Lady Chatterley's Lover ("'That thrust of the buttocks, surely it was a little ridiculous. If you were a woman, and a part in all the business, surely that thrusting of the man's buttocks was supremely ridiculous...' Hell yeeeeeeeeeeah, mama! Cabo Throbbo!!!!!! Shots! Who's buyin' the shots?")
  • Justin Bieber reading How To Win Friends and Influence People
  • Morrissey reading the scripts from Season 5 of Sex And The City
  • Iggy Azalea reading the Warren Commission Report
  • Wiz Khalifa reading He's Just Not That Into You
  • Chris Brown reading The Wit And Wisdom of #Gamergate
  • Nickelback reading their own lyrics
I'll put my editorial standards up against any other sonofabitch blog in the damn house.
