20 April 2010: a "420" set? (Nope: 1966! no pot around then, of course)
« on: April 19, 2010, 12:34:45 PM »
Not bloody likely.

I went looking for the Toyes "Smoke 2 Joints" on YouTube to post on FB tomorrow -- I don't wanna say potheads are stupid but there are, like, 17 (roach-)clips of "Smoke 2 Joints" on YT labelled "Bob Marley". Because all reggae sounds like Marley when you're stoned? Sheesh.

Here's the Toyes, BTW:

To be fair, for the longest time I thought it was Bob Marley.

Other 420-ish songs?

Smoke On The Water
Legalize it
Smokin'
Rainy Day Women #12 & 35
Get Stoned (Hinder)
Smokin' In The Boys Room
Smoking Her Clothes (Inspiral Carpets)

Ah, why bother?

Although I do like one of the headlines at sports.yahoo.com/mlb:

"Lincecum is Smoking"

They're doing a pretty credible Buddy Holly impression here, down to the guitar solo style.

Styx, "Light Up"
(I forget who - Traffic?) "Light Up or Leave Me Alone"
Macca/Wings, "Hi, Hi, Hi"
Marty Balin, "Ganja of Love"

And then there's Ray Charles' "Let's Go Get Stoned," but that's about booze, not weed.

This "Diddy Wah Diddy" (?) is NTM.  Must be just a left turn from Tobacco Road.

You've heard this before.  It's Captain Beefheart.

ETA: It's not the normal version?
