#30DaySongChallenge Day 8: A song about drugs or alcohol.
Ten or eleven years ago, I trained up to run a half marathon. I had one of those little square iPods that I loaded up with banging tunes, but set it to random play. I was way too close to the front of the pack when the starting gun went off and I clicked play on this song. I couldn't keep up the pace even for 3 1/2 minutes... https://youtu.be/y0LoATTcoJs

Doubling up on Julian Cope? Man, you must be out of control!
Julian Cope, "O King of Chaos" (1984)
"Oh, king of chaos, won't you love your son?
My mind is disconnected, not the only one
You didn't want any love at all
You try to leave me stranded but I just move on
In my light, in my light …"

I have posted this before, and I shall post it again, because I like it and I just can't control myself –
Julian Cope, "Out Of My Mind On Dope and Speed" (1989)

Aye, I’m listening to Julian Cope and waiting on food being delivered. As you do of an evening. #ArchDruid #JulianCope
Surfing, and New Wave can only mean one thing (for starters from a late starter at the end of the week like me) –
Julian Cope, "Safesurfer" (1991)
Yes, I'm stretching from The Teardrop Explodes (New Wave) to safe sex (that's what "safe surfer" means), but 8 mins of nutty guitar work is a big roller to catch!
Put on yer jammies and plug in yer air guitar!

And now it's time to listen to Julian Cope and Teardrop Explodes, "Out of my mind on dope and speed" (April 1990)
Why? But why not? It's Julian Cope, after all.

Mastodon isn't complete without a picture of Julian Cope. Here it is. #JulianCope
I always feel Julian Cope should've been a way bigger star than he was. He was pretty, wrote great tunes, was (is) a charismatic stage performer. He's just never seemed able to commit himself to living fully in our dimension.
