If one is against artists' works because they used drugs, there are a lot of excellent art (music, books, paintings, movies, and TV) that people should not be enjoying. Most artworks are really not gateways to drug abuse.
BTW, Mr Brownstone the song is about how drug addiction is bad. There is nothing in the song that celebrates drugs. If anything, it is a warning against drug abuse. In fact, Axl Rose, GNR's lead singer, talked about how drug abuse was screwing up the band. If there is anything to be learned from GNR's experience, it is that drug addiction sucks.

As for the prevalence of drug abuse, theres a difference between a group that celebrates and elevates abuse of drugs (out of context and rarely seen interviews notwithstanding), and those that attempt to divorce the art from the addiction (for the most part). Even a Van Gogh may have been heavily under the influence, but it isn't generally a glorified theme of his work. I never understood why Eric Clapton's "Cocaine" was played on the radio so heavily, I mean, its not even a good song!
Either way, I think we can all agree that there are a disturbing number of people (both with and without success) that said they tried/abused drugs because it seemed like everyone successful (at least in the music world) were also drug abusers. I've never quite understood the attitude of not protecting children as much as possible. They will lose their innocence at some point, and never get it back. Why rush it?
is there a book for "i used to love her" or "one in a million?"
