What is the best drug song?

FOCKER! :smack:

I’m kind of fond of Gin and Juice as covered by The Gourds.

College kids are makin’ it
High-school kids are takin’ it
Why can’t we?
Why can’t we?

“Snowblind,” by Styx.

“The Devil Went to Jamaica” – http://www.123lyrics.net/d/david-alan-coe/devil-went-to-jamaica.html

“The Ballad of Robin Head” – http://www.mage.co.uk/songs/robinhed.txt

That was Cocaine Blues. It was covered by a lot of people, but I think Dave Van Ronk wrote it (and if he didn’t he should have – he owned it).

Also,

Illegal Smile by John Prine
Coming into Los Angeles by Arlo Guthrie
Codeine by Buffy St. Marie
Outside of a Small Circle of Friends by Phil Ochs

White Lines, Grandmaster Flash & Melle Mel

What’s not to love? It’s about drugs AND goofy 80s dance clubs. Freeze! Rock!

I don’t know if it counts as “drug music” or just “music made with the main purpose of listening to while on mushrooms” but I love anything by Shpongle. I especially like “Dorset Perception,” “Divine Moments of Truth,” and “Around the World in A Tea Daze.” (You can check out clips of their songs on the Shpongle website, too. :))

Comfortably Numb, Pink Floyd.

Any Pink Floyd or Stone Roses song suits me perfect when i’m rollin a number

No Quarter by Led Zepplin

Great dope-smokin’ song

“feel so good” by Spacemen 3

Verve - Blue

I’ve generally heard it attributed to the Reverend Gary Davis, and that’s who Browne (at least co-)credits it to on Running On Empty. Browne added lyrics that namechecked a few people in his personal sphere, hence the amended writer credit.

I always enjoyed tripping to Hawkwind’s Space Ritual.

But I will agree with the suggestion of Velvet Underground’s Heroin.

I will add that I feel the Happy Mondays (and by extension Sean and Bez) might be considered the most influential band in terms of drug culture, in the UK at least.

Mr. Brownstone - Guns N’ Roses

Lust For Life - Iggy Pop (& the Stooges?)

Rocks Off - Rolling Stones

Passage To Bangkok - Rush

apologies to Loopydude, but I gotta go with Down In A Hole by Alice In Chains over Godsmack. I think I resent the band Godsmack for their crappy generic grunge lite.

Up In Smoke…by Cheech and Chong
Up in Smoke,
That’s where my money goes.
In my lungs, and sometimes up my nose.
When troubled times begin to bother me…
I take a toke, and all my cares, go Up In Smoke.
C’mon, let’s go get high…
