Brewer & Shipley's "One Toke Over the Line" was an uncharacteristic 1970 hit for a duo that preferred to sing ballads. The song was singled out by Vice President Spiro Agnew as "blatant drug-culture propaganda" that "threatens to sap our national strength" because of its marijuana references; Agnew threatened FCC sanctions against radio stations that played songs that glorified or promoted illegal drug use. But Tom Shipley has said that the song hardly promotes drug use; it is in fact a cry for moderation.
