Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

  • Awesome Music
  • Broken Base: In 1997, Iggy remixed "Raw Power" and made it A LOT LOUDER AND A LOT HEAVIER(technically speaking, it is the loudest album ever) in response to fans complaints that David Bowie's rushed original mix was too thin. A lot of people came crawling back to the Bowie mix, and some people liked it. YMMV.
  • Crazy Awesome: Iggy Pop.
  • Even Better Sequel: Fun House is a notable aversion to the Sophomore Slump, being considered much better than their debut. If Raw Power isn't a Stooges fan's favorite album, it's usually this one.
  • Moment of Awesome: Numerous - right up to their legendary final show, which music critics have likened to a snuff film - but Iggy essentially inventing crowd-surfing stands out and provides one of the band's most iconic images (4:14).
  • Nightmare Fuel: For the love of God, DON'T listen to "We Will Fall" at night...
  • Painful Rhyme: Well it's 1969 okay/All across the USA
    • "Last year I was 21/I didn't have a lot of fun/Now I'm going to be 22/I say oh, my, and a boo-hoo."
