I know Iggy wrote the song, and was called China Girl on his album.

This is in in reference to Iggy Pop recording China Girl for his album - The Idiot.

"China Girl", originally called "Borderline", was a tale of unrequited love inspired by Kuelan Nguyen, partner of French actor/singer Jacques Higelin, who was also recording at Château d'Hérouville at the time. The protagonist's "Shhh..." was a direct quote from Nguyen after Pop confessed his feelings for her one night."
