Feeling of Jubilation

David Bowie and Iggy Pop coked up at Max's Kansas City,
a nightclub and restaurant in New York City. 
When users and addicts indulge in cocaine use, they all encounter and often describe as it happens, a moment of jubilation. Djhayes383, a commenteer on SongMeanings.com, stated that when on cocaine, he always experiences:
"...feeling a moment, a short time of feeling absolutely overjoyed, a moment of complete jubilation...."
This jubilation that many feel is created when cocaine enters the area of the brain where dopamine is located. The coke blocks the reuptake pumps that normally remove dopamine from the synapse of nerve cells. So basically, more dopamine gathers at the synapse and feelings of intense pleasure result.

David Bowie always spoke of cocaine as something that made fun moments more fun. He now claims to be coke sober.
