Re: Best songs about riding the horse
everything on screamadelica, vanishing point and XTRMNTR, most notably 'come together', 'kowalski' and 'shoot speed; kill light'. primal scream are all about the heroin.
also the happy mondays cover of 'step on'.

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - The Beatles [/ QUOTE ] This song was actually about a woman named Lucy who sold jewellery. No joke.

[ QUOTE ] Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - The Beatles Yellow Submarine - The Beatles [/ QUOTE ] How do these songs reference heroin? Although I'll grant you, "Yellow Submarine" is the best song about living in a yellow submarine. [/ QUOTE ] I took it a step farther than just songs about heroin. Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds Yellow Submarine

Re: Best songs about riding the horse
One interpretation of the Tool song H is that it's about dealing with heroin addiction.

Re: Best songs about riding the horse
Wow...had never heard of the Yellow Submarine = Nembutol "link" alluded to in the Wikipedia article, so thanks for pointing that out, but it seems far-fetched to me. I think "Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except for Me and My Monkey" would be a better Beatles choice for this topic.

wow. how do you pull Heroin Velvet Underground but not Perfect Day Lou Reed? [/ QUOTE ] I thought of it, but I felt like I was already getting too Loaded, so to speak, with Reed material. Sister Ray, White Light,... where to stop? The one that I can't believe didn't occur to me was Needle and the Damage Done. As for Brown Sugar, that was a bad choice, because he's just kinda playing off different stuff rather it being about heroin. I was kinda of curious when the Ramones would come up.
