"Get Stoned" is the title of a song recorded by American rock band Hinder. It charted at number 4 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in the United States.[1] It was the iTunes free song of the week in the summer of 2005. It was released in July 2005 by Universal Records as the lead single from their debut album, Extreme Behavior. The hook of this song consists of a section of the guitar solo from "Born to Be Wild" by the band Steppenwolf, which Hinder later covered. The track also bears a strong resemblance to "Dream On" by Aerosmith, though much heavier than the aforementioned song.

[edit] Music video

In the music video, the band is shown performing in a club. Lead singer Austin Winkler is shown walking through a hallway with girls all around him. The whole band is then shown in a hotel room with a bunch of girls. Eventually the group trashes the hotel, doing things like smashing a TV with a guitar and flipping a cart of liquor over. Winkler is then shown shirtless in bed with at least 2 girls. The video ends with the band finishing up their performance and leaving the club and going back onto their tour bus. They leave the club the same way they entered, with women in each arm and a smile on their faces.
