Cigarettes, and the songs they inspire

Well, so here's a post about cigarettes. As you all know I quit smoking sometime in something like February or March. Some might say I actually haven't quit since I still steal drags off smoker-friends, i. e. smoke. But on the other hand, smoking a whole cigarette makes me nauseous. So I've accomplished that, which is pretty good since I've been told by Mazur, Ohmygodimmike and Kuech that I used to smoke more than anyone ever in the history of the universe.

Oh, you're wondering how I quit? Why of course I'll share with you, the big secret of how to turn your life around and become a better, stronger and healthier person. The answer is angrily eating huge quantities of apples, then oranges, and then maybe some other fruit, and then chewing a lot of raspberry-flavored gum. Instead of smoking. And then, if you're like me, you might harmlessly start stealing drags every now and then. Especially at parties or when there's like a really really nice view. It's a risk I'm willing to take. Yes. That said here are all the songs I found on my iTunes when I did a search for cigarette.

Duke Ellington- Love is Like a Cigarette ( again, I know, I know)

Daniel Johnston- I Save Cigarette Butts

Tex Williams- Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette)


Sheila Hancock- My Last Cigarette


The J's with Jamie- My Cigarette and I
