OT: 4/20 Songs

[meyers7]

I know there a few people who like the music threads and now that it is off season, might as well do a couple. Since today is 4/20 , how about songs referencing drugs? In the title or just about. We'll stick (0r try to stick) to pharmaceuticals. We'll leave alcohol for another thread.

Here's one my daughter used in school for a project. She needed a song about cocaine.

Snowblind - Styx

One song, both covered.

Man I love this song. The man however was an advertisement for how not to live life.

My favorite version. For obvious reasons.

Gail Farrell and Dick Dale (Lawrence Welk Show) - One Toke Over The Line

 

[meyers7]

Another better version.

Cocaine Blues - Johnny Cash

 

[JordyG]

I met this guys years ago on the streets of NY. Later I had the (mis)fortune of seeing him in person. I don't think this guy ever bathed or said a coherent word off stage.

 

[Zanzman]

Another better version.

Cocaine Blues - Johnny Cash

Love this song my wife let the dj play it at our wedding

 

[UpstateNY]

Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds

 

[Scud49]

Just a great tune by the Stones:

 

[meyers7]

Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds

Although a very good song. Not actually about drugs. Inspired by Julian's drawing of a classmate, Lucy O'Donnell and Alice In Wonderland. Now both the song and the book might have been written while ON drugs. Lennon and McCartney both claimed it wasn't about LSD.

 

[meyers7]

An Beatles tune that was about drugs, marijuana, specifically.

Got To Get You Into My Life - Paul McCartney

 

[lne001]

 

[Waquoit]

I'm not buyin it. I suppose this song isn't about drugs either.

 

[JordyG]

Right vein, wrong arm.

[JordyG]

The original recording since it was written for him. I actually saw him with War when they did "Spill The Wine".

 

[JordyG]

All of these guys denied this song was about drugs until their very ends, so....
