Insanely Famous Songs About Drugs
They say that drugs, sex and rock n roll have always gone hand in hand. That is probably why we have some of the best songs about drugs as part of mainstream music. Music and drugs or rather musicians and drugs have a very weird connection. On one hand, we condemn drug abuse and on the hand hand, we hum on popular music tunes that most obviously glorify drugs. Life is like a strange series of contradictions.
