Thought I'd check on how this thread's progressing. Very impressed with a lot of posts. Miley Cyrus? WTF? I KNOW she was a very precocioius, even ADULT writer at the tender age of 12 but to appear in lists of druggie songs? I just don't know but I am a very open person and will lizten to her early stuff. Ke$ha, yeah, great vid based on Beatles' 'Yellow Sub', but great? I mean songs and music?
'Dead Flowers'. Can not fault that choice. Is that a different version than the original?
Ditch, there's a fine line between genius and insanity, and I can't make my mind up about you. Perhaps your tongue is in your cheek and you have a long harboured desire to go into standup comedy? Whatever, you are entertaining me!
But Justin Bieber, a cross between Zep & the Doors? That HAS to be comedy. Please say you're not serious!
I can't, despite lots of thinking, find the words that would describe my feelings on this topic towards Miley Cyrus or Ke$ha. Well, I can, but don't want an infraction for 'pornography'!!! No, they are indeed both, as a man with healthy testosterone levels, errrm, desirable, which is the most innocent word I could come up with.
And finally, though not a 'drug song' but one which is eminently listenable whilst stoned, remember yet another 1966/7 song, the Monkees' 'Daydream Believer' which has never been out of my top 5 pop singles ever, and give a moment's silence in memory of Davy Jones, taken too soon. As so many in the music business. At least he survived well beyond the far too big '27 Club'. Yhink of all who passed at 27. Janis, Jimi, James Morrison, Al thingy from Canned Heat, mote recently the remarkable Amy Winehouse... Tjat list goes on. What age was Cass Elliot?
Anyway I'm impressed, and if there are still some of you who don't know the La's 'There She Goes' or Spiritualized, the whole album, 'Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space' (1995 or so) then LISTEN TO THEM!!!
Enjoy your sounds, friends! Your everlasting hippie correspondent,

By the way, Weedpete in particular, and all who remember good acid and a smoke of fine weed, never forget the multinational band who lived communally for 40 years, GONG. Pure genius with Bloomdido Bad de Grasse (Didier Malherbe) playing wind instruments like nobody else, all led by the Aussie Hippie Spectaculaire, Daevid Allen. Yes, the spellig's right. Get on Google and Wuzam and find their stuff like 'Camembert Electrique' and 'Flying Teapot'. You will not be disappointed!
