....apparently a significant number of people started using heroin based on hearing Lou Reed/the Velvet Undergound's song "Heroin". Reed was shocked to discover this. I can see why! Listen to the original from the first Velvets album. Are you hearing happiness or fulfillment in lines like "....and I'm better off than dead" that would lead YOU

A lot of people react this way to lyrics and songs about drug regardless of tone and how negative they are. Some vices are better left unspoken about at all.
