It’s the mooooost wonderful time of the year! No, not Christmas, silly, it’s almost 4/20!

Not feeling festive? Don’t you worry, because after countless hours of extensive research, we’ve rounded up all the smokiest, tokiest jams for all of you crazy kids out there that are celebrating the holiday this Sunday, complete with gifs to boot! Now, without further ado, we present to youuuu…the Top 10 Songs for Stoners…

1.  “The Joker” – Steve Miller Band: An instant classic, every stoner playlist needs some SMB. Plus, now we have an excuse to use this Hyde gif:

2.  “Mary Jane” – Coolio: Using a sample of a Rick James song, Coolio and his hair single-handedly created an incredible smoker jam for the ages. Thanks to the track being used in the classic stoner comedy “Half Baked,” it’s forever in our hearts:

3.  “Hits From Da Bong” – Cypress Hill: Try not to sing along. We dare you.

4.  “This Joint” – Slightly Stoopid: We’re just gonna shut up and pass it.

5.  “Ras Trent” – The Lonely Island: BRB laughing for like six years.

6.  “Sweet Jane” – Lou Reed: RIP Lou Reed, we love you, and we love your sweet, sweet stoner jamz.

7.  “Purple Haze” – Jimi Hendrix: Please, you think that we’d forget Jimi, did you?!

8.  “Blueberry Yum Yum” – Ludacris: don’t look at us like that, you KNOW you love this song.

9.  “Pretty Like Drugs” – Queen Adreena: for all the metalhead stoners out there, Queen Adreena, AKA the mysterious KatieJane Garside, is the perfect aggressive addition to your smoking songs list. It might be a little jarring at first, but trust us, you’ll adjust and love it soon enough.

10.   “White Rabbit” – Jefferson Airplane: Classic, trippy, and a little bit frightening. The perfect end to a perfect day.

Happy smoking!
