My friend used to sing "I love my drug buddy" to me all the time and I had no idea it was an actual song until years after he died. I thought it was just a silly little thing that he sang to me. I am so happy I get to listen to it all the time. I got the chance to see the Lemonheads live a few months ago and when they played this song I hope my friend was looking over me. I miss you so much Harold
If you've been in the cycle of heroin addiction with your a lover then this song is relatable. I'm clean now but that kind of love was certainly unique.
This band always breaks my heart. I want so bad to be young again and have the Lemonheads be young again. When they were big... those were the best days of my life.
I was just about to say the same thing and I saw your comment. Takes me back to a time I was having a great time and really happy. Life grinds you down but every time I listen to this song all of that goes away. Amazing what music can do.
Same here, the 90's were the years of my life, when I was free, fun and cool, very cool. Lots and lots of concerts, festivals, drugs, cigarettes, bad coffee, alcohol, and craziness. Firsts loves, failures and betrayals. Had an Evan Dando's poster in my room on top of my bed, and Pete Townsend's on the other. Had piggy tales on my hair, desert boots on my feet and 70's bell bottoms. I can still smell the feeling every time I listen to The Lemonheads and time travel ........
@@raquelalvarez7700 I was in a college town. East Lansing. The music, the drugs, dancing, shopping, bars, HAPPY HOUR, girls, booze..., and the Lemonheads. Life was so fun. We were never supposed to leave that and grow up. To me, Heaven will be going back to those days. PS. Was it Pete Townshend "Deep End" poster?
Love that organ so much. The whole song is great, wouldn't change a note, but the backing vocals and organ make it 12 on a scale of 1 to 10. Loved this from the first time I heard it 30 years ago.
When I was young, my best friend and I would play this song over and over and sing out loud to it all the time....this song holds a special place in my heart.
I came here searching for a song by the same name composed and singed by a friend who passed away 5 months ago. I loved her in every form a human being can love another. Of course I loved her more than a friend, but as we lived too far in different countries, and had seen each other personally only a few times, this was all we could have. And I still love her. I'll love her forever.
I have so many memories that include Lemonheads songs, which dates back a long time. Can't wait to see them again Oct. 2 as they play this complete album.
had this song stuck in my head thus singing it all day.... and funny, i use the fusion rasor... sorry, probably not that funny really....... is that juliana hatfield?
I’m just here to brag about having the same birthday as Evan Dando. Also, my favorite moment in this song is “as the cars fly up King street.” There’s just this little lilt in his voice on that one phrase that is perfect
She's coming over, We'll go out walking, Make a call on the way. She's in the phone booth now, I'm looking in. There comes a smile on her face. There's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday. There's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday, Yeah. I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else. I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else. I'm too much with myself, I wanna be someone else. So we take off out Fiona's door, Walk until it's light outside, Like before when we were on the phone. We have to laugh to look at each other. We have to laugh 'cause we're not alone. As the cars fly up King St. It's enough to startle us, It's enough to startle us I love my drug buddy. My drug, my drug buddy. I love my drug buddy. My drug, my drug buddy.
This song will heartbreakingly always remind me of my mom and the co-dependent relationship that has built over the years. It’s the only way I can be close with her…even if I’m clean now. It’s just sad.
Noise Addict 'I Wish I Was Him'... such a sweet and honest little song about Evan during this era. His visit to Australia needs to be made into a feature length film... not a doco (although that'd be boss too) but an amazing feature length film about his time down under.
@@salvatoredambrosio8377 Well, there were lots of little bands and venues that don't exist any more...and one night, one of our friends said he had bumped into Evan Dando on the street, looking to score some pot. We were very disappointed he didn't invite Evan to our place for a visit! We could have sorted him out!
God.. I love how depressing this song is.. You know that the stronger emotions you feel when it comes to art the more "True" it is. This song reminds me so much of my ex from when I was 16 and she was 15 and how she had developed drinking issues and started drunk dialing me. It has been 9 years and I can only look back and say that she was my first love. I tried getting back in contact with her when I was 20 and just wanted to be friends but like most addicts in recovery she had to cut me out of her life for her own sobriety.
@okwooahh I know! So strange but I remember in'92,he was our Justin Bieber.I can't imagine being 16 or 17 & liking Justin Bieber,I mean,after looking at my Zeppelin poster,the 1 w/Plant wearing tight bells having long curly blond hair & Page w/his double-neck guitar,since I was 10,how could any1 much less I like J.B.?

I remember back in 1992, I was at fork in the road, and I made a choice. A choice between hard drugs and I made the right choice. I called two straightedge friends of mine to hang out. No drug buddy.
"She's in the phone booth, I'm looking in..there comes a smile on her face" anyone who's ever lived the lifestyle (wouldn't recommend it btw 😂) can relate to the simplicity of the lines here.."there's still some of the same stuff we got yesterday" it's just a brilliantly written song about going to score with whomever your drug buddy is that day. (It varies..we tend to fall out a lot..it comes with the lifestyle) fun fact- Dave Gilmour of Pink Floyd once said this was the one song he wished he could've wrote..high praise indeed. I hope this helps.😊
It’s a song about the only way the heroes can communicate - through drugs. 💊 It shows the downfall of an entire generation, broken into pieces by the worlds of work and love. 💔 And it’s still relevant in 2025. Written for Generation X, it remains more relevant than ever today. 🕰 Maybe without the phone booth… ☎ But now, so many young people are dying from the epidemic of painkillers. 💀 And even the artists themselves - George Michael, Prince, Tom Petty, Lil Peep, and others - have fallen victim to it. 🎤🎸💔

This song is genius.
Juliana Hatfield sings some of the most absolutely beautiful backing vocals...ever. :O)
THEY BOTH USED TO DATE MY MOM SHE WORKED AT TAMPA BAY HOOTERS IN THE NINETIES
Was just asking the same question, who's that female backup vocal?
Great Big No is her masterpiece...
@@EighthHouseTarot Juliana and Evan BOTH dated the same Hooters waitress???
She also played bass on this album, no?

Congrats! I'm clean from chasing the dragon as well

Best song on their best album

Goose bumps
Love this song.
Great band! I caught "Glastonbury: In Flashback" this past weekend and it features a great Lemonheads performance!
My god, that short section from 0:40 to 0:52 is perfection yet it only plays once in the song.
I'm guessing because it eventually ran out and there isn't any left :)
And that's why it's perfect.
Sad how there isn't as many views as this deserves
Was this originally released in ‘92 or ‘93 or? It’s been of my favorite songs since I was little, and still is for sure!
❤️
I miss my drug buddy, too...she died from cancer, though, surprisingly... CAN'T WAIT TO SEE EVAN N JULIANA IN OCT!!!!
Best song of his.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG,AND EVAN(drool) DANDO!!!!
Maybe my fave ever ....
Best version is from KCRW's Rare on Air series...just Evan and Juliana acoustic. It's amazing. Now if I could just find it again...

Evan Dando with Julianna Hatfield. Such a brilliant combination.
Hoping you are now CLEAN EVAN 😁❤️
@okwooahh OMG! Was it like the poster,because it looked sooooo good!
They were my glorious drug buddies along with the Dandies !

There's so much Sydney in this song. King street.
The Best Replacements song … I’m sure people will disagree.. I’m a long time fan .. Please to meet me was my favorite album … so many great albums…
I’m too much with myself too…. On methadone since 2006, & can’t get off. Life on its own terms feels completely overwhelming.

you could actually get heroin then instead of xylazine and fentanyl. And ecstasy was ecstasy and not whatever molly is now
