about

“The multi-talented singer and songwriter Chris ‘Harry’ Doran aka Blind Uncle Harry continues to ignite the music world with his unorthodox inventiveness.”-Warlock Asylum Music Blog

"This is one of the funniest and unique songs that we have ever come across." -Just Fame

a " folk-rock delight... [Harry] has an edge for using his music as a vehicle to create awareness. Blind Uncle Harry does it again!" -Warlock Asylum

"A modern marijuana anthem" -Which Coasts Music

“'Dopesmokers of the World Unite and Take Over' is easily one of the funniest songs that I’ve heard this year.” -Ratings Game Music

"Taps into folk’s very rebellious roots… I really get a Violent Femmes vibe from this track… this song is a treat and even a bit of a trip in itself” Which Coast

"when listening to Blind Uncle Harry, expect to have a good time." Which Coast

An "Indie Folk Rock Anthem" -Anastim Ducray, Stepkid.com

"One gets the sense this jam is a real hit at parties. The musical style is like if you were to blend 1880′s country with 1960′s folk, 1990s lofi and add contemporary social flair. Harry’s witty lyrics and mellow delivery are those of a true hippie out of time." -Anastim Ducray, Stepkid.com

"You’re Going to Find Yourself Grooving Along To This Song." -Sam Reed, Indie Band Guru

"By the time ‘Dopesmokers of the World Unite and Take Over’ draws to a close, you’ll find yourself humming along with the catchy hook and in need of hitting that repeat button for another listen." -Woke Chimp

the "communal spirit feels absolutely awe-inspiring, [and] recalls a bit of David Peel & The Lower East Side’s “Have a Marijuana”. The same degree of joy from that 1968 album lives on with Harry’s loopy take on folk rock." -Beach Sloth

"The famous Blind Uncle Harry never fails to wow the audience, and with his latest music video, he has just set the benchmark for creative artists out there in the industry. His versatile development, together with authentic lyricism, is the source of his immense popularity around the world." -African Hype

"And of course, the music is suitably ragged and raucous coming off like a campfire busk or a cosmic jam after a night on the weed, and it is all the more glorious for it." -Dave Franklin, Dancing About Architecture

lyrics

DOPE SMOKERS OF THE WORLD UNITE AND TAKE OVER
Dope smokers of the world Unite and take over This world is too violent
Everybody needs to chill the fuck out (x2)
Dope smokers of the world unite and take over

If we were in charge there would be no more wars If we were in charge there would be no more wars
Dope smokers of the world unite and take over

The stock market it would crash Followed by industrial collapse Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Cuz all the things that are destroying the world
Are impossible to do when you’re stoned
You can’t operate heavy machinery when you’re stoned

So dope smokers of the world unite and take over (x3)

Can you tell me why it’s illegal?
I like to get high it makes me giggle
You look like you could use a giggle too

So hey Barack, Barack Obama
Let’s smoke a joint, some marijuana
Life won’t seem so complex
You’ll forget all about who to put on your secret drone kill list next (x2)

Cuz when you’re stoned you just want to sing a silly song So everybody won’t you sing along
La la la, la la la, la de da
La la la, la la la (x3) La de da

So dope smokers of the world unite and take over (x3)
