You need to check out the whole Sticky Fingers album. Moonlight Mile is an underrated masterpiece.
One of my favorites among tons of favorites.
To show just how versatile the Stones are you should react to "Can't You Hear Me Knocking". It starts with rock, then transitions into jazz and swing. One of the Stones' best. I'll give another vote for Angie too!!!
Great song.
Yeah you are so right it's the versatility of the Stones that makes them the musical backdrop throughout my life they are unique ...it's also the ballads that really hook you up to the Stones
This song got me through the grief of losing my young husband by cancer 11 years ago . It spoke to me as he suffered from the disease and then the excruciating pain and sadness of my loss. Wild horses couldn’t and still can’t drag me away. I’m obsessed with these lyrics.
You cannot overestimate Charlie Watt's drumming in this song. "A rock band is only as good as their drummer."
Flawlessly done on drums. Emphasising and supporting percussion at its finest.
Great Stones track. Have you done Angie yet? Another fantastic slow song from the Stones to check out.
Yes, to Angie! It was always one of my favorites from my childhood,. It's kind of haunting to me at the same time because it came out when I was having a lot of awful things going on. They say smell and hearing memories are the strongest ones.
Just a brilliant song, but for me, "Sister Morphine" is the absolute killer track on this album. With the amazing Ry Cooder on slide guitar - it is a real emotional high point. An underappreciated Stones classic.
I really wish more people would react to Sister Morphine. Not sure if it just gets claimed every time, or if nobody bothers, but I just haven't seen people do that one.
@@zenhaelcero8481 I have seen it once. Andy and Alex (you tubers) reviewed the whole Sticky Fingers album. (on Patreon) they also reviewed Exile. Both blew them away/ I like their reviews because they do not interrupt the songs. I always thought each song should be listened to twice - the first a uninterrupted listening. the second, an analysis.
Sticky Fingers is, to me, the greatest single disc album ever. "Moonlight Mile", which closes the album, is the best song off it. It's a ballad that builds up into crescendo and then floats away as it ends. If you want to try a rocker off the album, then try "Can't You Hear Me Knocking." It's perhaps the Stones' best riff ever.
Bitch ain't too shabby in that dept. either.
Agreed, Moonlight Mile is a stunning song.
It's my favourite album of any artist or band.
Another great reaction Syed. Just a beautiful song from the Stones 1971 masterpiece, STICKY FINGERS. One of the greatest albums ever recorded.
This has always been my favorite Rolling Stones song. Many people don't get the meaning. Everyone hears music differently.
I believe this was recorded in Muscle Shoals Alabama. The Stones were impressed with Credence Clearwater Revival and their simple, emotional style of songwriting. Some of the Stones best music came out of this era. Ron Wood added another dimension with his precise, soulful guitar work during this time
Ron Wood is not on Sticky Fingers.
It was recorded in Muscle Shoals, but Mick Taylor was lead guitar. Ronnie Wood joined 5 years later when Taylor quit.
The emotional interplay between Mick Taylor's and Keith Richards' guitar playing is the thing that makes this song special for me.
And the piano. Which I always thought was Nicky Hopkins but it wasn’t. Jim Dickinson. Tack Piano which is clearly heard on the shite iPhone speakers lol.
@@mumbles215 always worth investing in some decent headphones, they don't have to be Focal, Bowers & Wilkins or Mark Levinson, but something like Sony, AKG, Audio Technica, Bose, Beyerdynamic. Not Apple they are just overpriced jewellery.
Love jaggers voice in this one- and Angie- very pretty
Yes, do "Angie."
Agree, 'Angie' is another very pretty song.
After we die could mean after we as a couple die. Jagger has sung “after love dies” instead in other versions.
You've got the story backwards. It was Marianne Faithful who overdosed, and the wild horses line was what he said to her.
The song following this one is worth checking out; "Can You Hear Me Knocking".
It is a unique Stones song that starts out with a funky beat and bassline laid down by the great Bill Wyman. The second half is a jazzy almost latin infused jam session that is reported to be an impromptu continuation of the outro in the recording session that no one was planning but engineers let the tape recording roll, lead by Bobby Keys saxophone, Mick Taylor's guitar and Charlie Watts' drumming where his jazz roots really comes out.
In fact this entire album "Sticky Fingers" is one of the most iconic and brilliant rock albums ever made, every song in it is top notch and a dynamic representation of the band's musicianship and song writing.
Heard these stones songs a million times,could hear them a million more.
It was the other way around: Marianne Faithfull, Jagger’s girlfriend, was the one in the coma. There have been persistent rumors that Gram Parsons actually wrote this song and sold it to the Stones for $50,000 or something, but I wasn’t there, so I don’t know. You could say it is in his style though, and the Stones “allowed” him to release his version a year before they released theirs. If you know anything about their business practices you’d know they don’t give a lot of money away out of kindness or sentimentality. I love the Stones though, over the Beatles. If it was written by Parsons, it was written to his little sister. Their parents had died over the last few years, she was being raised by their stepfather, and her brother hadn’t been there for her, and in fact would die in a couple of years.
I think Gram had something to do with this song. He was hanging out with Keith when it was written. I heard Mick did not like this song. It took them over a year to record it.
Always great to hear your keen reaction and observations:)
They were both great in their own way.
That is soooooo sweet!
Nice reaction, brother -
Moonlight Mile maybe Jaggers' best singing but this one is up there too.
Great reaction.. you're one of the best!! I thank you!
One of the best Rolling Stones songs. The lyrics, Mick's delivery and the instrumental arrangement are perfection. Charlie's drumming is first class.
I'm in my mid-sixties now, but this song takes me right back to young heartbreaks - amazing song - I always like the Stones' balads best.
That was a excellent synopsis of this song! 🖖🏼
This shows the versatility of the band. This is also when kith was really getting into the country side of his musical path. Also micks emotional singing wich puts u in a dream state.
With the help of Gram Parsons.
This one has the same emotional impact as it did fifty years ago.
The Stones have a surprising number of ballads for a rock band. I'll leave others to list.
This song takes on a slightly different feeling live. If you can find this live at knebworth 1976 it is a very powerful, yet very boozy rendition. Live at the Fonda in 2015 is also a great version, a little less sloppy.
ten years ago, Mick Taylor came to a party at my house. Late on, when I was singing on my guitar, he picked up my Dobro and played slide IN CONCERT TUNING!!!!!! on this song- very very high cotton for me! The song was originally written about Marianne Faithfull after she became a junkie and nearly died. Anyway, I sang it, and Mick played lead. Wow! Precious memories!
The stones my favorite group nice song strong meanings its a ballad truly i loved
Brian Jones was gone. A southern kid named Gram Parsons left the Byrds and Flying Burrito Brothers and became the kid brother/ guru to Jagger and Richards introducing them to real Americana.
When you talk about simple, as a musician (and admittedly not an amazing one), I still classify this as a difficult song in its totality.
Your analysis is absolutely top notch
Wonderful track, and arrangement. Try my favorite Stones "Ballad". "Angie"
Syed you described it perfectly well, great job. A tender song it is & he does sound like he’s going to break apart. ❤❤
If your looking for a stones balled check out “shine a light”, so under appreciated
Yes, he needs to check out some of the Stones’ more soulful and gospel-inspired ballads like “Shine a Light,” “I Got the Blues,” and “Let it Loose.”
I've always felt that it was about the arc of a relationship - early "childhood" part where is all good, then pain comes and finally looking back on it. And, like you said, with tenderness and forgiveness.
Love this song. Heard it first while attending the University of Colorado in Boulder summer of 1971. It is now 2003 do the math I can"t.
Always loved this song. Thanks for your insightful reaction. Gave me five minutes like I was hearing it for the first time again. 😊
Live he sometimes sings "let's do some living after LOVE dies" Either way it means the same to me. This is my favorite Stones song. Thanks for this reaction
Beautiful track.
You wanna hear the Stones best bluesy ballad? .... MEMORY MOTEL .... so underrated.
Mick has said that Keith wrote must of the ballads, and romantic songs.
Keith was always a romantic if you read his autobiography. Keith is certainly more of a monogamist than Mick.
Beast of Burden is my favorite Stones song❤😊
Check out "Backstreet Girl". Beautiful Stones track that will make you feel like you're in a French Cafe.
Sister Morphine and Moonlight Mile were and are great numbers . If there was one song that I feel as a lifetime Rolling Stones fan ( First saw them on the Hollywood Palace
TV show in 1964 ) ( I was 13 years old ,am now 71 ) that exemplifies my conception of who , and what The Rolling Stones represent is ..wait for the answer..... Jumping Jack
Flash . I know they have worn the tread too much by playing it over and over again on the radio , as if that and Sympathy for the Devil is about the only thing they ever did that was any good , but Jumpin Jack Flash has the attitude of the Rolling Stones I remember as a teenager. The rebellious sound , the emotion , the raw primitive sound I used to love so much . The lyrics are really cool and basic and simple , but it tells a powerful story : Life is really tough , but when you add it all up ; It's a GAS GAS GASSSS . A word not used anymore , to mean bitchin , another word not used anymore , to mean Out Of SIGHT ! Another word not used any more , to mean BOSS ! ,etc.
Good slower songs from the Rolling Stones that I would suggest: Shine A Light, Time Waits for No one, Waiting on a friend, Love in Vain etc.
This is one of those songs that gives me goosebumps throughout
This is hands down their best song. Soft yet has an edge.
I'd also love for you to get into anything from exile on Main Street
Here on the album version, Jagger clearly sings "Let's do some living, after we'll die", not "after we die". "After we die" makes no sense to me. I've seen it written as "after love died", which also makes sense, but I don't think I've ever heard it sung. Maybe it was an earlier version of the lyrics, that got printed somewhere.
Check out "Time Waits for No One"! Remember Syed, Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste! One of my favorite tunes from The Glimmer Twins on "It's Only Rock 'N' Roll"!
Shine A Light" from "Exile on Main St" is another keeper. Exile is a double Album just packed full of ass kicker's. May be their best an top three at least imo!
Amelas_One_1953
As Tears Go By is a good slow ballad by the stones
A Levi’s jeans tv ad here was heavily advertised whilst mick n Maryanne we’re here in Vict Aust for filming Ned Kelly , Maryanne said to mick wild horses couldn’t drag us apart after coming from her drug overdose .. Levi’s motto of thier Jeans advert is “Wild horses can’t tear em apart “ .. ,
this is one of my hundred favorite songs. sweet shirt by the way who makes it
check out Jaggers great backing vocals on a brilliant track, You’re So Vain by Carly Simon
? Best cameo back-up singer ever
Any such debate is stupid. They're both epic, timeless, perfect.
Great observations.
As much as I love the Beatles, the Stones have more depth. I grew up a Stones fan. There’s nothing like the music, creativity, and versatility.
Great song and album, never gets old. Also, it is easy to love both the Beatles and the Stones, they were the leads for the entire British Invasion and really, 2 sides of the same coin. The Beatles might be the better band for those who compile lists but the Stones had a much longer and greater touring career, playing to many millions in huge stadiums for 60 years, an unparalleled working career. Both bands had master songwriters and the musicians to make the music revolutionary and standards for all rock bands after to evolve from. No matter which of these 2 greatest of bands you react to, chances are it is an utterly classic song. No need for competition, just enjoy the wonderful music and forever vibes. 🎵🎸🎤🎷🎹🎶
My favorite song by the Stones❤
Between the Stones and the Beatles, the Stones had by far the best singer.
The Stones ballads are in a different order than other rock ballads. The evoke so many different emotion, different times even.
No point comparing the Stones and the Beatles. They do have one thing in common and that is they were both great bands to come out of the the sixties
Influenced by Gram Parsons who got the rock generation into country music via The Byrds, Sweetheart of the Rodeo LP. Since rock n roll was a fusion of blues/gospel and country, it had ignored the country aspect as uncool music for middle aged US truckers. Stones genius was to do it so extremely well with no background in it. Have original Sticky Fingers LP
i thought i heard someone say parsons helped write it on some doc ? is that wrong ?
@@richardclark2290 No, it's true. Also, he left their company a full blown heroin addict, which killed him not long after. Well done chaps.
@@DawnSuttonfabfour It's the stuff of folklore. Gram undeniably influenced Keef and the band’s deeper foray into Americana, especially country music, but the Stones inspired him as much, if not more. By Gram’s own admission, he did not write “Wild Horses,” but his presence might have inspired it.
Great song. If you are looking for another Stones ballad, you must check out "Angie"
Angie is awesome
Check out “as tears go by”
Do to incorrect punctuation on the part of those who've posted the lyrics of this song online, most people misunderstand the line, "Let's do some living after we die." The line doesn't mean they'll die...and THEN they'll do some living. That doesn't make any sense, and anyone who tries to make that interpretation make sense is just trying too hard to find something cryptic, or spiritual, in the lyrics. The line, properly punctuated, is, "Let's do some living. After, we die", meaning, the living comes first, then, after doing some living, they will die.
Angie, is other super ballad by the Stones
I like original versions of most songs but my favourite cover of this song is by The Sundays.
I think Marianne Faithfull was in the hospital in Australia, and Jagger, the one who couldn't be torn away and he penned this.
Sticky Fingers is a worthy album!!
This would be my fav ballad followed by Angie.
GREAT reaction, love the word tenderness!! ❤👍🏽
The Rolling Stones "Fool To Cry"...Nuff Said.
I first heard this song by Flying Burrito Brothers. Some of these lyrics were found in a Gram Parsons journal after his death. No idea if he gave it to Stones or if they gave it to him. One of those rocknroll mysteries
Angie is another good ballad. Check out tumbling dice for something more upbeat.
So many focus on the Stones early beginnings and rightfully so in their own right, but they've actually been creating masterpieces for 60 years. I'd love to see you react to some later stuff also. Voodoo Lounge was a great album. Really, I find everything they do so inspired and remarkable. I think you would also. Another early ballad that was a smash hit is called Angie. That would be a great one to react to also. Cheers! Great reaction again! Oh also, another thought. The Stones include a ballad on each album. Their later ballads are equally beautiful also.... I could go on and on. I hope you'll check out their entire catalog mate! And if you don't know, the harmonies are all Mick and Keith :)
For you own enjoyment go listen to the flying burritos version. They recorded in 1970.
The stones weren't ready to record it and told gram Parsons he could record it. Gram had been hanging with the stones in France for a while during this period.
They used to say that the difference was that The Beatles wanted to hold your hand and The Stones wanted to get your knickers off!
Also, Gram Parsons' involvement in this track cannot be over estimated. I prefer Gram's version actually.
Actually, the song Wild Horses is a Keith Richards collaboration with Gram Parsons formerly of the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers Gram's version came out first: The picture at the start of the video is of Gram and Keith at Villa Nelcote created during their drug hazed benders: ruclips.net/video/LZHJajD6T-M/видео.html
React to Fleetwood Mac singing Rhiannon live Stevie Nicks will blow you away in the song so much emotion
This is a really great song
i would listen to your analysis in a podcast form everyday
One of my top 19 songs…Stones win!
Another of my favorite slow Stones(who am I kidding -they're all my favorites) is 'Let it Loose.'
From the same album, "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" would be a great next listen for you.
Richards backing vocal is amazing on this track
Check out Ruby Tuesday from 1966 A total love song
The flying burritos version was recorded a year before the stones version. It's better in my opinion
They let Gram record this song with the Burrito Brothers almost a year before "Sticky Fingers" was released.
Nothing against Woody but Keith and Mick Taylor combined incredibly well when it comes to guitar work. The production by Jimmy Miller is also outstanding, Jimmy was a drummer and nobody produces drums as well as Jimmy. Check out Sweet Virginia to see Stones having some fun :)
I’d read that Gram Parsons was an uncredited co-writer
Gram was an admirer of the tune and was gifted the opportunity to record it first with the Flying Burrito Brothers. That said, he did not write the song by his own admission. His presence, however, was influential on Keef and the Stones’ deeper foray into Americana, particularly country music.
@@fuchsiaswing8545 thanks for clarifying- it’s a gorgeous song 😘
'Angie' and 'Far Away Eyes'.
‘Angie’ is this times 1.5 times the pathos
The Stones are also the UK's #1 country band. 'Tis true. Keith wrote this one...or was it Gram Parsons? Nope, it was Keith.
Stones all the way, not even close.
You must listen to “Let it Loose” from Exile on Main St.
Sister Morphine. Hands down the best.
The girlfriend Marianne Faithfull was recovering from a coma in Australia when she came up with the line about Wild Horses Mick was making Ned Kelly Unfortunately they broke up soon after that
I love watching younger people get into this music I grew up with. Yes this song and the song Angie are the Stones best slow love songs. I still don't think they can match the Beatles but they come close.
I just found this more recent version. It's a studio recording session and you see them all performing. Mick sings with his entire body, eyes closed and Keith and Ron are completely immersed in what they're playing.
It's a beautiful version and my new favorite. ruclips.net/video/DTNOarAmv3Q/видео.html
