Question by schenzy: Should singers be concerned about the message of their songs?
Two examples spring to mind….

1: Avril Levigne’s “Girlfriend” — the message seems to be… It’s a good thing to physically, verbally and psychologically abuse nerds… go out there a kick a nerd’s a*s and steal her boyfriend. It’s fun. (Teenage girls by the millions LOVE this song)

2: Amy Winehouse: “Rehab”… This song seems to say “Hey alcoholics and drug addicts, stay in denial that you are in control. Keep drinking and taking drugs. Don’t try to get help. ”
I’m sure so many people who desperately need help for their addiction problems might see this video and be empowered NOT to get help for their problem.

So the question remains… is it just the song or is it also the song and the message an artist must consider?

Question by BK: Can you tell me a song about drugs and/or alcohol?
Hi, I need a song that has to do with drug and/or alcohol abuse. I found the song “Rehab” by Amy Winehouse, but I don’t think it has that much to do with alcohol and drug abuse itself. Sure, it does, but I need a song that has a lot to do with alcohol and/or drug abuse. Can anyone tell me a song about drugs and/or alcohol abuse please? It can be any type a song. It just can’t have curse words in it. Thanks so much!
