What people think about Drugs:

• not a bad version... I do like the original better though.... 
• they're music seems to transpose into feelings. that's a part of what punk is. 
• Fortunately I'm pretty sure this is the "The Name Of This Band Is Talking Heads" version. So it's not like it's from an inflated reunion tour with an orchestra or something. (Not that they'd do that.) ...I don't have my liner notes in front of me ;) but this is from the first of two LPs in that album, and I think it was recorded in '79 or something. In fact it must have been at least that early because, hearing it, I'm sure the performance is from before Remain In Light which was '80. 
• Ya know, I was listening to Iggy Pop, and I was shocked... Listen to "Dum Dum Boys" by Iggy Pop off the Idiot then this. Why, David?! Why! 
• Sounds like a bad trip, maaaan. :) 
• "Electricity, that's what I call it!" 
• well said mquinlan 
• this song is not about the lyrics, it's not about any sort of imagery. it's about the atmosphere. it's about listening to it in your car when you're driving home at 11 PM and you realize there's nobody else around and it's just you in your car and the atmosphere this song creates, and it starts to really creep the fuck out of you.
