God to again do Cocaine
Eric Clapton will again play “Cocaine” in concert. I’m surprised becoming sober didn’t make him play it more since it’s very anti-cocaine.
- “I thought that it might be giving the wrong message to people who were in the same boat as me,” Clapton recently told The Associated Press.”
“But further investigation proved … the song, if anything, if it’s not even ambivalent, it’s an anti-drug song. And so I thought that might be a better way to do it, to approach it from a more positive point of view. And carry on performing it as not a pro-drug song, but just as a reality check about what it does.”
