Spiritualized are a band missing from this list. Their whole entire catalog could pass for songs about drugs.
A few others I'd add to the list:
1. Pulp - This is Hardcore
2. Blur - Song 2 or Beetlebum
3. Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze (actually drinking inspired that one oddly enough)
4. The Rolling Stones - Brown Sugar
5. Marilyn Manson - Dope show, and I Don't Like The Drugs (But the Drugs Like Me)
6. My Bloody Valentine - anything from Loveless could easily pass as drug music
7. Crystal Method - Trip Like I Do
8. Apollo 4-40 - Electro Glide In Blue
9. Sneaker Pimps - Spin Spin Sugar
10. Massive Attack - Karmacoma
11. The Verve - The Drugs Don't Work
12. Huey Lewis and the News - I Want a New Drug
13. The Cure - Anything from Pornography. A friend told me that album was written while Robert was doing drugs. Makes sense!
14. The Pixies- Where is my Mind?
15. NIN - Hurt
That's all I can think of that hasn't been stated yet.

Lust for Life is really just about a modern guy who has a lust for life.

Actually, it could be considered an anti drug song.
Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
He's gonna do another strip tease
Hey man, where'd you get that lotion?
I've been hurting since I bought the gimmick
About something called love
Yeah, something called love
Well, that's like hypnotising chickens
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in the ear before
'Cause of a lust for life
'Cause of a lust for life
I'm worth a million in prizes
With my torture film
Drive a G.T.O.
Wear a uniform
All on government loan
I'm worth a million in prizes
Yeah, I'm through with sleeping on the sidewalk
No more beating my brains
No more beating my brains
With the liquor and drugs
With the liquor and drugs
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in my ear before
'Cause, of a lust for life (lust for life)
'Cause of a lust for life (lust for life, oooo)
I've got a lust for life (oooh)
Got a lust for life (oooh)
Oh, a lust for life (oooh)
Oh, a lust for life (oooh)
A lust for life (oooh)
I got a lust for life (oooh)
Got a lust for life
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in my ear before
'Cause I've a lust for life
'Cause I've a lust for life.
Well, here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And a flesh machine
I know he's gonna do another strip tease
Hey man, where'd ya get that lotion?
Your skin starts itching once you buy the gimmick
About something called love
Oh Love, love, love
Well, that's like hypnotising chickens.
Well, I'm just a modern guy
Of course, I've had it in the ear before
And I've a lust for life (lust for life)
'Cause I've a lust for life (lust for life)
Got a lust for life
Yeah, a lust for life
I got a lust for life
Oh, a lust for life
Got a lust for life
Yeah a lust for life
I got a lust for life

The Last Shot, from Legendary Hearts. It may be harder NOT to find a drug reference in most of Lou's earlier material. Wise man though, and still buff I hear ;)

"Lust for Life" is the best and best-known song from your days with Bowie in Berlin. How much of it is autobiography?
It's William Burroughs, from The Ticket That Exploded and The Soft Machine. I loved that Dr. Benway line: "Love, what is it anyway? It's just like when you hypnotize a chicken." And there was Johnny Yen, the Venusian green boy -- he's gonna sell you the love con. He'll go through your closet while you're staring into space. I was mixing that with personal experience.

i interpret that song as being about someone who wants to be kept in check and doesn't want to get too full of himself: "if you see me getting mighty, if you see me getting high - knock me down, i'm not bigger than life".

Okay. Probably about 40% of the Raggae songs out there. LOL. They all run together in my head. Bet GGW could make a list a mile long. He's our Raggae Dub Master.

Hahaha I had gigs upon gigs of dub and reggae in college and got bored with most of it after I stopped smoking pot regularly. Same with just about all of the jammy stuff I had. :o

Yeah, that kind of happened to me after I stopped going to Jamaica regularly.

Isn't that kind of like on the Simpsons when they go to Duff Gardens and the teen band Hooray for Everything does a very g-rated version of "Walk on the Wild Side"? Maybe they could do "Love for Life".
