  • how dare you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @orpado1968 No, this song was written at a time when they were introducing heroin as a less addictive alternative to morphine (laughable in retrospect, but doctors then didn't know much about it). This song was written to object to the replacement of heroin.

  • The music is godawful and seems (to me) to have no relation to what she's singing. The tempo is terrible, and the instruments are worse. Aside from that it's not bad.

  • @darrin42 In 'em old days, the african american were so poor, they will take morphine to forget about the reality and hardship of life. it's a song about the struggle of living day to day knowing that you will die someday.

  • Why does she want morphine? this song is weird.

  • Love this song. Omg.

  • Good enough for grandpa, oh yeah!

  • brillant and a great cd escondida some brill tunes on it.
