I know what it is, but what is the definition of it? How do you explain to someone what a psychedelic song is?

Don’t bother even trying, I have and it’s no good. Sorry to be so negative. I suppose you might be able to if you’re good at saying what you want to say, not like me. Maybe you could say that a phsychedelic track is mind-expanding, or at least it gets you (well, me) to think, it’s unlike anything else, ever, and sometimes a little strange-sounding.
Good question, by the way.

Offline You can’t define psychedelia or a psychedelic track. That’s the whole f*cking point of it being psychedelic – it’s so unexplainable.

I would say that a psychedlic song is one that reflects a colorfully dreamy, distorted mental state on the part of the songwriter, as could be produced by a psychotropic drug.

Offline A psychedelic track is anything you want it to be. If you want it to be something, then it is just that. It’s like a shamble; something normal people don’t want to get.
Really doesn’t make much sense, but that would be how I would explain it to someone.

Offline From wiki.answers.com regarding psychedelic music…
“The music genre, which originated in the 1960’s, is a free-form, mainly instrumental music that is said to suggest the shifting and fleeting perceptions experienced when taking psychedelic drugs. Common factors in much of psychedelic music include exotic stringed instruments, unusual lyrics, tempo changes, and electric guitars or synthesizers using reverb, distortion or other electronic effects.”
To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.
