"San Francisco", a song released in the middle of Vietnam War. While the song appeared to attract youth to San Francisco on surface, it soon emerged as a popular anti-war song back then.

McKenzie was invited to perform his song in East Germany after the fall of Communism in 1991. He was shocked to learn that citizens could once have been imprisoned by the Stasi for listening to the song. “Many of these people adopted San Francisco as their personal anthem of hope and freedom. It is very humbling,” he said.

Hippies LSDs and VDs!

Yes, that era was also marked by the use of marijuana and LSD. Interestingly, hippies were against alcohol during those days. Maybe someone who knows the underlying reason can enlighten us. Many tried (self-declared) including eric clapton, steve jobs, angelina jolie, bill gates.........well, they are lucky that they didn't get addicted.

Likewise, today, some of us drink without getting addicted while we see middle-aged drinking more than 6-cans or 2 bottles of beers every night so that they can sleep. In the end, they came down with stroke or liver failure, etc. 5 of my six uncles drinks every night. 2 are down with stroke.

In a way, every generation has their own troubles and entangled-mind. LSD, pot and beer are just catalysts.
 
Seriously we need a hippie movement in Singapore right now.daft and stupid balless humji sinkies need to stand up for their rights .
