"I Want a New Drug" is a song by American rock band Huey Lewis and the News from their third album Sports.

"[2] Lewis believed the definition of love was very open to interpretation depending on the listener.

The album version has two extensive guitar solos, one in the middle of the song and the other as a fade out.

[citation needed] This is used in the music video and is parodied by "Weird Al" Yankovic as "I Want a New Duck".

[5] According to Lewis, one of the reasons the band agreed on doing the music video was to avoid a literal translation of the song and its lyrics.

"[2] Cash Box said that it has "hard-edged guitars setting the pace above harpsichord-like synth chording and a grinding organ base.
