some live fast and die young others
don’t mock up I must charge this button
very sure what’s a cool app whatever
whether they’ve got an insatiable
appetite for destruction a lust for more
than just life or need something
artificial to kick-start their hearts
rock stars are known for their love of
sex rock and roll and you guessed it
drugs drugs have been used to fuel the
creative process really since the
beginning of time and may leave
influence writers and they’ve influenced
performers and composers biting the
heads off baths snorting your father’s
ashes spending sixteen thousand dollars
a week on heroin but i think it’s the
pressure to keep the hits coming that
probably is what learns most people to
alcohol and drug abuse Lumpy’s really
are just like us today on topics we’re
counting down 10 musicians who we’re
surprised weren’t killed by their drug
use during their heydays for this list
we’ve chosen musicians who battled their
demons for longer than humanly possible
and have made it through to the other
side or at least two older age I suppose
a lot of people might be frightened to
be me but I’m quite happy to be the
interesting thing about this list is
that the alternate title was the top 10
white guys of all time we kick things
off with a man who needs no introduction
because let’s face it he’s a student at
number 10 Iggy Pop
today he’s got a lust for life but
through the 70s he nursed a heroin
habits so the thing about Iggy Pop is
that although he’s perceived as a very
active and sort of flamboyant performer
who’s really aggressive and running all
over the place his drug of choice is
really heroin which is famous for
mellowing you out giving you a more
euphoric sort of elation which is kind
of laid-back and it’s not exactly what
you would think would go with Iggy Pop
rulers even surfaced claiming the
Stooges break blood from used needles on
to their apartments walls Pop’s
inability to stand up on stage finally
forced him into a mental institution to
get clean though David Bowie smuggled
him drugs eventually he got sober and
now he’s as fit and shirtless as ever
on to number nine with eric clapton
he sang about cocaine but that’s not the
only drug slow hand fell victim to his
sixteen thousand dollar a week heroin
habit almost drove him to suicide but he
never did it because then he’d have to
stop drinking Eric would drink all day
he’d be wasted and by 5pm Pattie Boyd
the former mrs. George Harrison would
then cut him off and replaced his booze
with teeth hoping that I would give Eric
just enough time to sober up in time for
the show now more often than not he
would sober up but once in a while he’d
be so trash that he would just perform
on his back I had a couple of rock
bottoms which just brought me to my
knees not that there were any worse than
anyone elses it’s just at some point I
hit the inner wall after withdrawing
from his career and during car crashes
health problems and being so drunk he
performed lying down clapton finally
reached that crossroads sobered up and
founded a rehab center in Antigua
doesn’t having a rehab center in a
beautiful place like Antigua just
encourage relapses I mean if I’m going
to a rehab clinic I want to I want to be
in a place that I will never go back to
put it in an abandoned asbestos factory
or downwind of a pork processing plant
or in Detroit
our next entry has claimed to a party
harder than Robbie Williams Russell
Brand and Charlie Sheen now that’s
saying something meet number 8
top-hatted guns and roses ax men / now
he’s clean and doesn’t even smoke
cigarettes then he had an appetite for
destruction / struggled with a heroin
addiction before GN ours debut album and
Axl Rose threatened to quit if he didn’t
sober up so Axl Rose threatened to quit
unless / dropped his drug habits / shift
called his bluff man by 2001 was
diagnosed with a heart problem and given
only a short time left to live but
therapy and a pacemaker saved his life
and today he has no regrets but it
catches up with you at some point you
don’t see it coming there’s an invisible
line that you crossed the interesting
thing about guns and roses is that they
they they abuse alcohol they abused
cocaine but probably their drug of
choice was heroin I mean this drug was
so widely used by the band that it wound
up getting some of the members kicked
out like Steven Adler the drummer the
interesting thing about heroin is that
it causes a euphoria inhalation and it
really really potentiates a songwriting
process which is why it was so valuable
for them back in that time heroin really
did see a resurgence with flam metal in
the late eighteen I mean to the point
where every major glam metal band was
taking heroin and like it was going on
us coming up next on topics you need a
man with a unique sense of style a guy
who loves him some good vibrations a
dude who scored dope for a guitar god
and a fellow with a stellar smile
