Songs about drugs

[MaddAdam]

I thought the classic junky rock song about heroin addiction couldn't be done again, but these Brooklyn waster kids have utterly smashed it here.

In this thread, songs about drugs.

Quality MOR about meth addiction.

WOAH! I had absolutely no idea that's what the song was about!

 

[MC Bad Genius]

This is the first one I thought of:



Someone recently pointed out to me that for someone who hasn't ever used drugs, I certainly love a fair amount of songs about drug use ...

 

[MaddAdam]

WOAH! I had absolutely no idea that's what the song was about!

Even the bit where he says words to the effect of (cbf looking up lyrics):

"I was doing sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could back there, someplace back there
Smiling in the pictures you would take
Crystal meth will lift you up until you break"

Lyrics are a bit juvenile after all these years

"Duncan" by Slim Dusty,at least he recommends moderation.

THE quintessential bogan anthem, but it also has a point in there somewhere...

Take your pick really with Elliott Smith but I really love this song.

 

[Halloween Jack]

Velvet Underground

 

[Running Dog]

The entire history of reggae music, but specifically Legalise It, Peter Tosh.

Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds (Beatles). John Lennon would have us believe it was all about how to remove bananas from a Vauxhall gearbox, but we know better.

Cocaine, J.J.Cale

Marrakesh, Crosby, Stills & Nash

Don't Bogart That Joint, Fraternity Of Man

 

[james Dean]

The Stranglers - Golden Brown

 

[TooFar]

This has been a favourite since I first heard it.

The album and associated book are about Nikki Sixx' life on drugs.

I believe him personally. He didn't care about hiding his drug use, why would he lie about that one?
