You couldn’t say „let’s spend the night together“ on prime time TV but it was perfectly ok to ship out men as young as 19 to Vietnam. It’s no wonder the USA had a counter culture.
Mick did not forget to change the lyrics from NIGHT into TIME. Jim Morrison did: Girl we could't get much HIGHER. The Doors were not welcome anymore at the Ed Sullivan show.....
"In 1967 the Rolling Stones returned to the Ed Sullivan Show to do their new songs Ruby Tuesday and Let's Spend the Night Together. No longer were they brooding, dark-suited Edwardians--here were some postnuclear medieval polysexual minstrels. Brian Jones wore a pillbox hat on his enormous blond bouffant that changed America. I had a friend whose father kicked in the television set and then burned all of the kids' records after this performance. Beyond the future valley of rock video, Brian Jones's fashion look flipped hormonal synaptic switches into an AC/DC mode throughout North America. Almost enough for the Lifetime Achievement Award already."--From SPIN Magazine, May 1986
“Back in my day, people weren’t so easily offended!”
Ed: you have to change the lyrics.
Mick's eyerolls are the best!
The visible eyeroll and look of disgust on Mick Jagger's face on the lyrical compromise speaks volumes. 👀
I love how Brian doesn’t even care about the change he just grooves out.

It's funny you can hear him around
Charlie and Bill don't seem enthused about miming here.

It's so funny they had to change title for this one night because they thought it was too risque by today's standards, it's actually a very tame song
Sounds to me like they slipped a few “spend the night”s in there anyway
I love how mick moves, with such grace..
Para mí era como un himno..está canción cuando estaba en la secundaria..!!!
Look at that baby-faced Keith Richards!
