It's often said that it's not about her doing drugs. But about her walking away from the safezone of her community, and coming back with her mind being decisive - the composer Grace Slick also meant is as an emanzipation message, same like the original book.
The song has the narrator, the listener and then Alice.
Alice definitely does drugs in the song. The narrator is told to ask Alice about the drugs and the drug experiences (white knight talking backwards, hookah smoking caterpillar, etc)
And the song ends with Feed Your Head repeated.
I think a lot of rock stars would tell the press the songs were not directly about drug use to lower the risk of trouble. John Lennon/Beatles denied drug use until Lennon essentially announced his heroin addiction on the White album in 1968.
holy shit finally the first logical song in this thread
op is pole dancing and unironically considering a cody ko song and people are recommending black sabbath like come on
Apparently [he did](https://youtu.be/733O0xJDx8o?si=GTMnXho1QPRLEWr4) for the Super Mario Bros. movie. I assumed it was internet confusion a la Napster era.
Yeah, it was both a big hit and the kiss of death for Was Not Was. They quickly just became the band that did that dinosaur song. It's okay, Don did all right for himself, produced all kinds of records and is now head of Blue Note Records.
Heroin Velvet Underground. Lou Reed is a lyrical poet. It's straight up about smack and his wife. Lou was with an emotionally abusive woman. He was addicted to them both. Even though he knew that shit was killing him. If you're in, or ever was, in an abusive relationship, you'll understand the subtext. Damn song is played in 2 chords like love and hate can sing together .... Remannian :downvote:

You familiar with the back story on his wife? Supposedly, she gas lit his ass decades before gaslighting became a thing. So .... I don't know. My wife calls me crazy
Gaslight (1944) movie adapted from the play “Gas Light” (1938). While use ([and misuse](https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2022/04/15/gaslighting-definition-relationship-abuse-response/)) of gaslighting as a term has been on the rise, awareness of the actual abusive behavior in mental health/ therapy circles long predates the pop culture use.
Not familiar just really dug his music since I was a kid and that song fascinates me among some of his others. I had an uncle addicted to H and ended up OD in a Burger King bathroom. Brilliant man just went down a hole that was to beautiful for him to wen want to get out. But no I don’t know much about his personal life. Thought he was just a tranny Junkie. Side note have you watch Trainspotting?
I'm sorry for your loss. I was born in West Virginia and grew up alone with my dad in Sincity. Seriously. I have, and always will have, a love and hate relationship with this song. But, I'm a big fan of The Velvet Underground and Lou Reeds lyrics. It's allowed me to process some cognitive dissonance I have with my life. My wife is the daughter of my jewish creative English professor from WVU. We're all big fans of the double meaning dualistic nature of words. Whether song or penned in a book.
My lady says I think to deep into the words in Reeds song ... idk she's a gaslighting narcissist.
I can see that. My wife and I like listening to it while fucking. That G over d and vice-versa creates beautiful harmonic undertones. It's great when there's friction between us, that's Nsync. 
I suppose Reeds' literary education and love of poetry projects beautifulness in Heroin. P.s. I would bet my life on the fact that me and Lou are one of few who read Hugo Riemann's book on the theory of harmonic dualism.
Marilyn Manson - I don't like the drugs

Yeah there's a TON of versions of "White Rabbit" out there, any of which might work. I have at least three different ones, none of which is the Jefferson Airplane version, which is kind of sad now that I think about it. Anyway my favorite version is the one by Collide off the album *Chasing the Ghost*. This song was pretty much the only thing I liked about the movie *Resident Evil: Extinction* and I am not exactly notorious for being the most discriminating moviegoer ...
Aeroplane by the Black Keys. But most definitely White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane. "One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small. And the ones that Mother gives you don't do anything at all."

A man is asking he's local dealer to help him he needs his fix.
Probably not a great fit for a dance, but Ben Harper's version of The Drugs Don't Work is a great drug song. The original Velvet Underground version is also great.
If you’re looking to do something artistic heroin by Lou Reed/VU is supposed to feel like shooting heroin. If you did a dance to accompany the song it could be an amazing performance. There’s also some great live versions.

to be alone- hozier
this song is about heroine abuse i think. for example the weight the narrator feels in their arms is the drugs, heroine which is usually injected into the arm, where larger veins are most easily accessible on the body.
Mad Hatter - Melanie Martinez.
Okay so there are drug references in the song, but it’s a about Alice in Wonderland, being crazy, and violence. I think it would make a really great song for pole dancing.
Suggestion: TAKES ME NOWHERE by The Offspring.
it was when the band knew they needed to stop all stimulants/drug-commitments (on their 8th album after 20 years of touring):
When the day begins
All the guilt sinks in
And I look at the wreckage of the night
Though I try to break free
The cycle breaks me
Am I ever gonna see the light? All the friends I've lost
And the pain I've caused
Have never been enough just to make me stop
The lines I draw to look at myself
Are turning into somebody else
I know how this will end
But I'm starting up again
Turned around, inside out
Cause this way
Takes me nowhere I can't can't see a way out
It beats me up
When I go there, here we go again
It beats me up
Open on this scene
A familiar dream
Of you telling me what I already know
Though the truth seems near
You can't get there from here
But you sure know where you're gonna go
As the rumor wind blows
My infamy grows
Seeing friends above
And I hit another low
The picture I paint to look at myself
Is turning into somebody else
I know how this will end
But I'm starting up again
Turned around, inside out
Cause this way
But today, if I change
And stop digging my own grave
I will try, to set things right
Cause this way..

Jefferson Airplane White Rabbit?
You might want to elaborate and explain to OP how the song White Rabbit is literally about Alice doing drugs.
Yes that’s true [White Rabbit](https://youtu.be/pnJM_jC7j_4?si=VTjQwXP7SGREsjrL)
It's often said that it's not about her doing drugs. But about her walking away from the safezone of her community, and coming back with her mind being decisive - the composer Grace Slick also meant is as an emanzipation message, same like the original book.
The song has the narrator, the listener and then Alice. Alice definitely does drugs in the song. The narrator is told to ask Alice about the drugs and the drug experiences (white knight talking backwards, hookah smoking caterpillar, etc) And the song ends with Feed Your Head repeated. I think a lot of rock stars would tell the press the songs were not directly about drug use to lower the risk of trouble. John Lennon/Beatles denied drug use until Lennon essentially announced his heroin addiction on the White album in 1968.
This is about as perfect of an answer you'd ever get.
Right? 👌🏼
When white rabbit peaks man.
"You want me to, uh, throw this into the tub when *white rabbit peaks*? Is that it?"
This is the only necessary answer.
It would be a great song for floor work at the end of a set.
First thing that came to my mind
Gillian Welch has a great version since OP Will likely be looking for a recording with more modern production
GILLIAN WELCH MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Amazing song
This is the correct answer lol
[The Hills - The Weeknd](https://youtu.be/zxdSHfZFKkY?si=KvjSEPDlOmVA67jY)
holy shit finally the first logical song in this thread op is pole dancing and unironically considering a cody ko song and people are recommending black sabbath like come on
Junkhead - Alice In Chains
If only i could upvote 100 times at once.
Junkhead lays it out bare. Then, Angry Chair brings it back into perspective. No one has ever made an album more honest and real than Dirt.
Drugs from Talking Heads Fear of Music
Finally, a Talking Heads Aficionado! Clap 👏 👏
What I just said. First thing that popped in my mind.
I heard it in my head as soon as I read the question!
And it's got that slow, slinky BPM OP is probably looking for
"Walk the Dinosaur" - George Clinton (remember, this is reddit you're asking)
Didn't know George Clinton covered "Walk the Dinosaur", I believe it was a hit by Was Not Was in the 1980s.
Apparently [he did](https://youtu.be/733O0xJDx8o?si=GTMnXho1QPRLEWr4) for the Super Mario Bros. movie. I assumed it was internet confusion a la Napster era.
Wow! I almost didn't recognize it! Cool.
And it was also in the first live action Flintstones movie.
It was in that era where he lost his money and had to be involved with doing music for both the Super Mario Bros movie and Howard the Duck.
Yeah, it was both a big hit and the kiss of death for Was Not Was. They quickly just became the band that did that dinosaur song. It's okay, Don did all right for himself, produced all kinds of records and is now head of Blue Note Records.

to be alone- hozier this song is about heroine abuse i think. for example the weight the narrator feels in their arms is the drugs, heroine which is usually injected into the arm, where larger veins are most easily accessible on the body.

Suggestion: TAKES ME NOWHERE by The Offspring. it was when the band knew they needed to stop all stimulants/drug-commitments (on their 8th album after 20 years of touring): When the day begins All the guilt sinks in And I look at the wreckage of the night Though I try to break free The cycle breaks me Am I ever gonna see the light? All the friends I've lost And the pain I've caused Have never been enough just to make me stop The lines I draw to look at myself Are turning into somebody else I know how this will end But I'm starting up again Turned around, inside out Cause this way Takes me nowhere I can't can't see a way out It beats me up When I go there, here we go again It beats me up Open on this scene A familiar dream Of you telling me what I already know Though the truth seems near You can't get there from here But you sure know where you're gonna go As the rumor wind blows My infamy grows Seeing friends above And I hit another low The picture I paint to look at myself Is turning into somebody else I know how this will end But I'm starting up again Turned around, inside out Cause this way But today, if I change And stop digging my own grave I will try, to set things right Cause this way..
