Music & lyrics that people associate/connect with drugs or drug use.

The vast majority then?
I dunno, I'm sceptical about the whole idea. Anything can relate to drugs, if you want it to. Like how John Lennon denied "lucy in the sky with diamonds" being about LSD, yet that is most people's association.
And I've always agreed with John Lydon's take on Pink Floyd.

Each to their own though :)
 
^ Agreed-any music could be related to drugs: what everyone was listening to, your favourite album/songs at the time, the artists at the festivals one attended... might not necessarily be "drug music" by definition, but it is associated with a period of time/experiences...

I was showing my little girl Puff the Magic Dragon on YouTube, and after listing to it said to my parter.. people just make things be what they want them to be by focusing on a few key words out of the song.. I know alot of people say otherwise and a friend even tried to tell me the person who wrote the song say its about drugs, which we then found was not true, but to me its just a mad arse song about a kid and a bloody dragon and its name is 'puff'.

Its like saying 3 Blind Mice is actually about a guy out on his bucks night with his best man and a groomsman and they are shit face drunk.. "blind", and they run into the mother in law and she circumsices them all....

I LOVE how music can however take you back to that awesome place in a heartbeat when you were off chops... Like seeing Scibe at a festival and Not Many just cranking up at the same time as my pill, and feeling the music through my body. or sitting around a bucket bong 2 decades ago and hearing Annie Lennox singing Thorn in My Side and thinking it was the best fucking song ever written. Best of all listening to TOOL's 10,000 Days while pilling and driving around VERY lost at night in the bush.
 
ISIS and Red Sparowes are great instrumental rock bands to listen to on just about any drug i've used. the emotions the music evokes even while sober is a trip itself. the same for Russian Circles.

Kyuss is what i'm rockin out to at the moment after a spliff.
 
Trance is always a winner on MDMA, I had a very profound moment on MDMA after at the afterparty of a festival, being only 10 feet away from Dash Berlin listening to this song.
Till the sky falls down http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2999RzLj5nU , the best way to describe it is simply joy. At that moment, despite all the things that have and are going wrong in my life, at that moment, I could feel everything. And I could see where my life has been and where it is going, and that it's all going to be okay. I can only see THAT kind of moment happening during a trance song, the build up in parts of the songs and bringing a crowd together is something special. I'll always assosiate MDMA with trance, the style of the music reflects the style of the drug. It builds up and then it goes down, builds up again, and goes back down, and a good DJ will bring the peak out of the drug during the peak of a song.

For Shrooooooooooms, I don't know what music I'd say I assosiate most with shrooms, but I'd say that all types can quickly change your state of mind/mood/trip.
If you're in a happy laughy state of shrooming with friends, then large rap verses can blow your mind. This song I think nails it because it's also got the easy going verses and then Eminem just kills it late in the song and the lyrics are most inspiring during a shroom trip which is often exactly what people need to get them out of a slump in life.

allright lets pretend Marshall Mathers never picked up a pen
lets pretend things would have been no different
pretend he procrastinated had no motivation
pretend he just made excuses that were so paper thin they could blow away with the wind
marshall you’re never gonna make it makes no sense to play the game there ain’t no way that you’ll win
pretend he just stayed outside all day and played with his friends
pretend he even had a friend to say was his friend
and it wasn’t time to move and schools were changing again
he wasn’t socially awkward and just strange as a kid
he had a father and his mother wasn’t crazy as shit
and he never dreamed he could rip stadiums and just lazy as shit
fuck a talent show in a gymnasium bitch you won’t amount to shit quit daydreaming kid
you need to get your cranium checked you thinking like an alien it just ain’t realistic
now pretend they ain’t just make him angry with this sh-t and there was no one he could even aim when he’s pissed it
and his alarm went off to wake him off but he didn’t make it to the rap Olympics slept through his plane and he missed it
he’s gonna have a hard time explaining to Hailey and Laney these food stamps and this WEAK shit
cuz he never risked shit he hopes and he wished it but it didn’t fall in his lap so he ain’t even here
he pretends that…

Or if you ever feel like going to hell, Dubstep or Prodigy with bass on max. I had this blasting through the house when my housemate was shroomin' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=407GWFMdiuE
I can assosiate this song with any hallucinogenic psychadelic, but it's a seriously awesome song but a WARNING to all those inexperienced, dubb or this song with high bass will most likely send most people to a bad trip. But if you're game, listen to this with the lights off and just have a heater blasting a red glow.
Invaders Must Die - The Prodigy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=407GWFMdiuE

METH, I probably associate Class A Team most with it, cause I've had friends who have been strippers nearly turned prostitute for their ice habits, and people start to only see them for the drug they use, and forget the beautiful person that they were without the drug and still have that person inside. One of my best male friends has abused the shit out of the drug too and seems to be more paranoid everytime I see him. I also relate this song to him, because he has a brilliant brain which is now more and more consumed by paranoid and flase truths then the greatness he was once capable of =(
I'd be suprised if most bluelighters couldn't heavily associate to this song too for either Meth or Heroin.
Class A Team - Ed Sheeran http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAWcs5H-qgQ
White lips, pale face Breathing in snowflakes Burnt lungs, sour taste Light's gone, day's end Struggling to pay rentLong nights, strange men
And they say She's in the Class A TeamStuck in her daydreamBeen this way since 18But lately her face seemsSlowly sinking, wastingCrumbling like pastriesAnd they screamThe worst things in life come free to usCos we're just under the upperhandGo mad for a couple gramsAnd she don't want to go outside tonightAnd in a pipe she flies to the MotherlandOr sells love to another manIt's too cold outsideFor angels to flyAngels to fly
Ripped gloves, raincoatTried to swim, stay afloatDry house, wet clothesLoose change, bank notesWeary-eyed, dry throatCall girl, no phone
And they say She's in the Class A TeamStuck in her daydreamBeen this way since 18But lately her face seemsSlowly sinking, wasting
Crumbling like pastriesAnd they screamThe worst things in life come free to usCos we're just under the upperhandAnd go mad for a couple gramsAnd she don't want to go outside tonightAnd in a pipe she flies to the MotherlandOr sells love to another manIt's too cold outsideFor angels to fly An angel will dieCovered in whiteClosed eyeAnd hoping for a better life This time, we'll fade out tonightStraight down the line
And they say She's in the Class A Team Stuck in her daydreamBeen this way since 18But lately her face seemsSlowly sinking, wastingCrumbling like pastries
They scream The worst things in life come free to usAnd we're all under the upperhandAnd go mad for a couple gramsAnd we don't want to go outside tonightAnd in a pipe we fly to the MotherlandOr sell love to another manIt's too cold outsideFor angels to fly Angels to flyTo fly, flyAngels to fly,To fly, to flyFor angels to die


I also associate Pantera with Meth, I'm not sure why exactly. Probably just the power of the song Cowboys From Hell reflects the energy and power that comes from using Meth. Amp/Meth is the only drug that enhances heavy metal for me, but I would still normally prefer hardstyle dance. all other drugs I don't associate at all with metal. The lyrics in it also I relate to how I see some people getting confused in the drug game and get caught up in the "gangster" side of it, finding people threatening/bashing them for debts they can't afford etc. I wanna be very clear that this is not how I associate myself to this song but is how I view some meth dealers who consider themself top shit gangsters.
Cowboys From Hell - Pantera http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7EQlfprV9E
Here we come reach for your gun
And you better listen well my friend, you see
It's been slow down below,
Aimed at you we're the cowboys from hell
Deed is done again, we've won
Ain't talking no tall tales friend
'Cause high noon, your doom
Comin' for you we're the cowboys from hell


I'm sure theres much more, but these were the first few to come to mind.
 
Steel Panther - I Like Drugs ......GREAT SONG!!! so many dance/trance songs....cbf to name them but anything Armin/Ferry or Dash Berlin reminds me of Xtc or good ol Lsd!
 
Rob Gee - Ecstasy, you got what I need.
And that little pills song, can't remember who did it or the real name of the track.
Too lazy to google.....
 
nodding out to 90's grunge because i'm hip like that. alice in chains are a particular favourite, duvall included.
 
What I find curious is how easily a song's character can be changed by replacing "love" with "drug"!

To all the girls I've drugged before
All you need is drugs
Drug is the drug that I need to score
Drugs are all around

etc etc etc!
 
Freddy King - Going down

About H

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_ONyukSLqA&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I'm going down
I'm going, down, down, down
Down, down
Yes, I'm going down, yes
I'm going down, down, down
Down, down
Yes, I've got my feet in the window
Got my head on the ground

Let me down
And close that box car door
Yes, let me down
And close that box car door
Well, I'm goin' back to Chattanooga
And sleep on sister Irene's door

Yes, I'm going down
I'm going down
I'm going, down, down, down
Down, down

Yes, I got my feet in the window
I got my head on the ground

How does it feel like,
To wake up in the sun?
How does it feel like,
To shine on everyone?
How does it feel like,
To let forever be?
How does it feel like,
To spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?

Scream a symphony.

How does it feel like,
To sail in on the breeze?
How does it feel like,
To spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?

Scream a symphony.

How does it feel like,
To make it happen here?
How does it feel like,
To breathe with everything?
How does it feel like,
To let forever be?
How does it feel like,
To spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?

Scream a symphony.

How does it feel like,
To be a crystal fiend?
How does it feel like,
To spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?

Scream a symphony.
