ecstasy refrences in mainstream music

[Wide_Eyed_Wog]

"I don't think thats what Scribe is referring to.

Its funny how you start assuming that everything has drug references when you start taking drugs, you never noticed that before..... "

i think its quite possible that scribe was talking about dropping e when he says " roll like this" he definitely was when he says " taking my drugs because come in the club and ill be dancein by myself like i dont give a fuck what what" plus in the clip when he says "taking my drugs" he puts his finger in his mouth like hes dropping.

Bone thugs N'harmony- Ecstacy

" i feel so pillish pillish pillish pillish cos we floating in ecstaccyyy"

Dance floor sensation-

"Now tones of people buzzzin there was soo much in my mind"

Bang On-4 Clubbers - Children [future breeze vs junkfood junkies mix]

" there is peace there is love and there is ecstacy"

all i can think of right now

I do believe scribe is refering to E in the song 'not many' because in the lyrics he also says something about verterbrate and bass vibrations.

Well I always thought Taxiride - Creeping Up Slowly for sure was about E's.
Especially the chorus... and some of the verse.


let's kick on back to the places we know (places we know)
the path isn't set yet your life is unsure (your life is unsure)

so your running in circles got a bug in your head
feel the needles and pins get em out of my head
take a chance on a rumor
heard from a friend
that something is gonna change

it's creeping up slowly
she's taking me over
it's turning me on
with every breath that i take
i roll up my dreams
and blow them away

cruising on blue street my worries are freed
stressed out and thined out i know exactly what u need

got ya life wrapped up in the palm of your hand
try to feel what i feel but u can't understand
no u won't be satisfied till u see
that something is gonna change

rip it up and turn the page
slip through the cracks in the stage
and u will find me there
look past the nose upon your face
it your gonna change

i saw u movin in slowly
caught a glint in your eye
a moments hesatation
in case ur wondering why
and u won't be satisfied till u see
this meeting of the minds inside of me

"..,I'm gonna do another i think. Yeah, one more, these are shit.

I just finished listening to blinded by the light from the Streets, when he mentioned that line and the way he said "these are shit" made me laugh so hard

 

[brokenbeat]

is 'music sounds better with you' by stardust a drug reference?

 

[villz]

The Chemical Brothers - Starguitar.

"You should feel what i feel, you should take what I take."

Or most other songs by the Chems come to think of it.

"Who is this, doing this synthetic type of alpha-beta psychedelic fucking" is a fucking great lyric...

Or Out of Control, Lost in the K-Hole, Private Pyschedelic Reel, Where do I start? God just about their entire back catalogue is Ecstacy focused...

 

[Mary Poppins]

Ian Drury and the Blockheads had some of the more blatant drug references in their 80's songs....Ian was crippled by polio and took drugs to relieve the pain...


I want to be straight is one of their songs...

in the intro it has ian introducing himself to Harry, Charlie and a host of other characters...quite clever really.

He was quite a funny little cockney urban poet...

:D
