I’ve only ever smoked weed and I really wonder what an LSD high feels like since I really love this song. Is it as flowery powery as the song sounds?

    I can only vouch for my own experience, which is that proper LSD is extremely powerful and shouldn’t be taken by beginners and that modern labs have made better lysergic drugs with milder effects, like 1cP-LSD, which is admittedly the only one I’ve tried personally.

    No idea why I forgot about psilocybin as a substitute. This is definitely the better suggestion though.

          Why didn’t Nancy sing about them shrooms instead

          Well, that was covered by IMO a superior vocalist

          Also … it was 1967. Acid and pot were well known counterculture icons the average radio listener/album-buyer in Sinatra’s market knew about; hence the lyrics. And the popular conception didn’t draw a lot of distinction between the different drugs. Hippies did that stuff to “get mellow”.

          EDIT: I have done a lot of stupid shit to get high. But definitely drawing the line at oxygen deprivation and literal deadly myco-poison
