#1: Touch Me – The Doors
With the rhythmic tapping of piano in the background and the build up to an explosive intro, thanks in part to the drums, Morrison is able to emphasize his want of being touched. Following the beat of the drums, is the ever so sensual saxophone. Used in many of their songs, I find that the sax in this song serves as sign of intercourse or something leading up to it, just as movies used trains going into tunnels or waves crashing on the beach.
#2: Joy Ride- The Killershttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3s8Aympo-4
For those of you that aren’t Killers fans, you still have some time to become fans. This song has Brandon Flowers (front man) exploring the treasures of the desert A.K.A the body of a young woman that has been picked up from the sidewalk “looking for a night life.” It may be just me, but I think she’s a hooker. Listening closely to the song the ever so sensual saxophone comes into play, which leads to the two being a motel. This song consists of sex and no drugs although it’s been known that in the desert there is peyote. #3: Mary Jane- Rick James

Perhaps the ultimate drug song known to man, this song could be taken two ways. One being that Rick James is speaking of a lady and the second being about marijuana. There are many names for dope, but Mary Jane will always be the term for that era and for many more to come. He sure ain’t singing about Spiderman’s Mary Jane.
#4: Novacane- Frank Ocean
The best of both worlds, sex and drugs. I heard this song from one of my room mates. I was stunned to hear it, but it's pretty darn catchy. The song is pretty self explanatory.
#5: Hash Pipe- Weezer
This song entails the life of struggling youth and what makes them happy: money, sex, and of course drugs. I've concluded from the many hours of listening to this song that we've all got our problems, but we all have our own ways of dealing with them. Some people deal with drugs, food, exercise, etc.
Sex ... sax ... yes, there seems to be connection.
