I Wanna Be Your Dog
"I Wanna Be Your Dog" is a song by American rock band the Stooges, released as the group's debut single from the band's 1969 self-titled debut studio album. The riff is composed of only three chords (G, F♯ and E), playing continuously except for two brief 4-bar bridges. The 3 minute 9 second song has a distortion-heavy guitar intro, single-note piano riff played by producer John Cale of the Velvet Underground, and steady, driving beat typifying an early heavy metal and punk sound. In 2004, the song was ranked number 438 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time", dropping to number 445 on its 2010 revision, then at number 314 on its 2021 list. Pitchfork Media placed it at number 16 on its list of "The 200 Greatest Songs of the 1960s".
