I keep haring and reading about Blaze On being a stoner song. I think not. The term Blaze On, especially in the context of the lyrics, is about pushing on in life. Come to terms and accept the mistakes in life and find a way to keep moving forward. For the hikers in the forum they've all followed those white markings on the rocks and trees known as "Blazes", they are navigation markers.

Seems like more of an anti-stoner song.

Of course.

But c'mon, you have to allow for the 'double entendre.'

We get that Trey likes Clif Bars and cool, green tea.

NICU gets half the 'ironic' applause as before.

ColForbin said 'stoner-pandering.' It's a cake and eating it too, kind of thing. Plus the base 'blazes' metaphor is kinda cheesy standing alone. As mentioned: There already is Faulty Plan / KDF and so on....

Score: 6
