  Jeff Bridges plays a down and out alcoholic country singer in the movie “Crazy Heart”. It is absolutely an award winning performance.

  Alcoholism looks different for an adult than the “loving to get high syndrome” does for an adolescent. The role of Bad Blake gives us a glimpse of what  loving to get high turns into if not dealt with.

  On the soundtrack you get a musical sense of the power of alcoholism. The song Fallin’ & Flyin’, written by Stephen Bruton and Gary Nicholson does a great job of showing the heaven and hell aspect to drinking.

  Fallin’ & Flyin’ by Stephen Bruton and Gary Nicholson

  “I’m going where I shouldn’t go,

  seeing who I shouldn’t see,

  doing what I shouldn’t do,

  being who I shouldn’t be.

  A little voice tells me it’s all wrong,

  another voice it’s alright.

  Used to think that I was strong,

  but lately I just lost the fight.

  Funny how fallin’ feels like flyin’, for a little while.”

  Funny how fallin’ feels like flyin’, is what’s behind loving to get high. Without the sense of flying no one would ever fall in love with getting high.

  Thank you Hollywood for understanding alcoholism and addiction,  now you need to figure out where it starts, with Loving to Get High.
