At YourCanna-Club we are working on finding the greatest weed songs, posting them here on our website and then making a play list we will share with you. It turns out a while back Rolling Stone magazine posted an in-depth look at the 20 best weed-themed songs of all times. It’s more than a list. Rolling Stone reporters Richard Bienstock, Most Reeves, Elisabeth Garber-Paul & Dan Epstein, did an enormous amount of work to share interesting tidbits about the lives of these musical artists, many of whom were or are big stars.

Our first post about the greatest weed songs ever is from Tom Petty – You Don’t Know How it Feels. Scroll down to watch the Tom Petty YouTube video. The Rolling Stone article had this to say: “Listeners who interpreted Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ 1993 single “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” as Petty’s kiss-off to cannabis were thoroughly disabused of that notion by “You Don’t Know How It Feels,” the lead single from Petty’s 1994 solo album Wildflowers. “Let me get to the point,” sang Petty in no uncertain terms, “Let’s roll another joint.” The sentiment made the folks at MTV uneasy; but rather than ban the song’s video, they simply ran an edited version that played the word “joint” backwards. “Imagine my surprise when this song comes on television and they say, ‘Let’s roll another noojh,’” Petty told a VH1 Storytellers audience in 1997. “Which sounded worse to me than ‘joint.’ Because, I don’t know if you’ve ever had a noojh, but that sounds really wicked.”
