Quote:
"Search and Destroy" is a song by American rock band The Stooges, recorded for the group's third album Raw Power (1973). Lead singer Iggy Pop said that he pulled the title "from a column heading in a Time Magazine article about the Vietnam War."[citation needed] In 1997, "Search and Destroy" along with the rest of the songs on Raw Power were remixed and remastered by Iggy Pop and Bruce Dickinson. The result was far more aggressive and stripped down than the original release, which had been mixed by David Bowie.

The song also provided the title of an influential late 1970s punk magazine based out of San Francisco. It has been covered by numerous artists, including Cursed, Def Leppard, Red Hot Chili Peppers, EMF, the Sex Pistols, Sid Vicious, Samiam, The Dead Boys, Rocket From The Tombs, The Dictators, Shotgun Messiah, Verdena, Peaches, The Hives, Emanuel, Radio Birdman, Adult Crash, Turbonegro, and You Am I. Henry Rollins has a large tattoo on his back of an image with large text reading "SEARCH & DESTROY."

In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked it #468 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In 2009 it was named the 49th best hard rock song of all time by VH1.[1]
I'm a street walking cheetah
with a heart full of napalm
I'm a runaway son of the nuclear A-bomb
I am a world's forgotten boy
The one who searches and destroys
Honey gotta help me please
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby detonates for me
Look out honey, 'cause I'm using technology !
Ain't got time to make no apology
Soul radiation in the dead of night
Love in the middle of a fire fight
Honey gotta strike me blind
Somebody gotta save my soul
Baby penetrates my mind
And I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
And honey I'm the world's forgotten boy
The one who's searchin', searchin' to destroy
Forgotten boy, forgotten boy
Forgotten boy said
hey forgotten boy

Since Bruce Dickinson was involved, I'm surprised at the dearth of cowbell. :cool:


It totally fits the mood Sawyer must be feeling as the used and abused forgotten soul. Funny that MIB tried to say that Jacob was manipulating Sawyer et al at vulnerable points in their lives, only to be engaging in the same thing.

I was so excited to hear this song, which is one of my favourite songs ever, that I had to rewind that firs scene with it to get what's happening. I can picture Sawyer playing the song over and over again. Loved it!

I was thinking the same thing. I'm waiting for transcripts to see exactly what he said there again. But. you know, I was thinking the song could be applied to either one of them really. And it also made me think of the boy in the jungle. It was a great choice. Did you notice that the record was warped? I haven't rewatched to verify.
