PartySick 161,502 Posted yesterday at 01:53 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:53 AM Real talk, on my first listen of Mayhem from front to back, LoveDrug goddamn blew me away and it was the first song I replayed. The lyrics are so damn relatable. "If I could bear it on my own I wouldn't try so hard to numb what's left behind" That lyric alone might be one of my favorites in her entire discography And I'm always a sucker for the songs that have that consistently pounding rhythm. Teeth, Electric Chapel, ARTPOP, Perfect Illusion, those songs where the kick drum is the star and all other instruments mold around it. It's like...idk, being hypnotized by a metronome It is THE song You're stinky 2 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
popkulture 321 Posted yesterday at 02:06 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:06 AM Absolutely NOT. But the song grew on me after experiencing it live. It's still one of her weakest on the albums and too generic for my taste. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was tempted to replay Garden Of Eden, tempted to replay Perfect Celebrity, tempted to replay Vanish Into You.. but I couldn't wait with LovedRug 🔂 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The meaning is so basic it's boring sorry I think of this song a metaphor for addiction. Like if the LoveDrug is some other substance than love with a human. It's actually a pretty good take on the experience of addiction in my opinion. I mean the chorus is dead on: " I know this time I won't escape these thoughts in my head I need you tonight But I'm gonna fight the feeling instead I don't wanna feel I don't wanna cry So I'm gonna dance until I feel alright I just need a dose of the right stuff I just need a hit of your lovedrug " Well duh, I guess that's the concept. The song is very literally about addiction AND love Edited yesterday at 02:41 AM by Skyana Rava 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RochestrMonstr 3,230 Posted yesterday at 03:20 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:20 AM It’s in a solid 4th place out of the 17 tracks for me. So not the best but clearly not bad at all. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine Inch Heels 606 Posted yesterday at 05:13 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:13 AM It’s one of my least favorites in fact I don’t hate it but imo it doesn’t close to the first 7 tracks, including CSTH Previously: starcell Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Born This Way 1,809 Posted yesterday at 05:18 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:18 AM It's really up there, especially after the Mayhem Ball performances. Run run with her top down baby she flies 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PapaLegba 9 Posted yesterday at 05:30 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:30 AM They need to make it a single - it's perfect for closing the era (but only after Eden and Vanish become singles first :*) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
