Hubby is a joker and was singing a stupid kids' show song from our childhood and the lyrics were so absurd that I told him the song writer had to be on LSD. Anyway, it got me wondering which classic songs were written under the influence and became hits. IMO, songs written under weed and cocaine check all the boxes for me.
Bob Dylan - ...'everybody must get stoned' - weed, uppers, twisters, and more
John Lennon - Lucy in the sky with diamonds - LSD
David Bowie - the bulk of his songs - cocaine
Oasis - everything prior to 1997
Berlioz wrote his Symphonie Fantastique under the influence of opium.
Miles Davis - Bitches Brew - heroin(?)
