Musick For/About Hangovers or Drinking

"She Conjures me Wings" by...er...the Mission (about Blue Nun wine)

"Alcohol" by Ganggreen, "Alcohol" by Howlin' Maggie

"Cold Gin" by Kiss, "Red Red Wine" by Ub40 (written by Neil Diamond)

Martin, Jesus. Have you met?

DAGAGAGAGAGAADDA!! CRIMINALLY INSANE!!! DAGAGAGDDAGADAGDAGA!!

hehehe.

I just wanted to shout it out coz it's a great song and all.

Hangover by Serious Drinking (much beloved novelty punk/football 80s English band: template for early Loaded magazine some might say)

For once. But there have been other recent examples and you have not paid attention. *slaps Tracer Hand with herring*

Tommy Roe's "Dizzy"

Nearly God's "Tattoo"

Jazz Butcher: "Soul Happy Hour":
"I get in a fury ( sung Fu-er-ee)
When I'm not in a brewery..

Whiskey Vodka Special Brew
All of this is good for you
Gin sling, Cointreau, brandy sour...
Blot right out! Soul happy hour! "

..Actually, most JBC songs are about drinking...

(Seems that way to me right now at least.)

Mention should also be made of the great Gary Stewart and his "Drinkin' Thing" ("I've got this drinkin' thing/ to keep from thinking things") and "She's Actin' Single (I'm Drinkin' Doubles)." Apparently if you are fussy enough to pronounce or write or type the final "g" in "-ing" endings, you haven't drunk enough.

To add to the Replacements drinking songs, what about Beer For Breakfast. "All I wanna do is eat them barbecue chips!"

Squeeze, "When The Hangover Strikes"

And you also remind me to mention

The Replacements, "If Only You Were Lonely."

Any number of songs by Squeeze - they wrote a lot of them. It's really funny when you go through their discography too - their drinking songs start out portraying drinking as something carefree and fun, and then they get vastly darker, mirroring Chris Difford's own struggles with alcohol.
