Mojo Magazine has compiled a list of the 100 Greatest Drug Songs Ever. The winner? Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit". The Beatles' "Tomorrow Never Knows" was #2 (they had two other songs on the list, but surprisingly no "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"). Surprisingly, the list also contains anti-drug songs, like Neil Young's "The Needle and the Damage Done" Anyway, we've got the top 20 if you click "more" -- for the full list, check out the December issue of Mojo Magazine.
