Deep analysis may even be an overkill... But the way YOU do it, makes me learn how to listen to music (I already thought I knew how). There is no better guide through the world of contemporary music than you, mr. Beato! Thanks and keep on! And for those SOBs who implement copyright claims and block your work: museums without historians is just a storage! Art needs to be preserved, analysed, shown and explained by the gifted to public! If a piece of music is not a piece of art, but merely a product... well, F it! be forgotten!
Divided by Zero overkill in the best way possible! You’re totally right, and I predict future musicians will study Rick’s work long after we’re all gone.
I named my daughter Angie because of this song. She died at age 20. We played the song at the beginning and end of her memorial service. Loved this video about that beautiful song.
I met Keith Richards at a Terence Trent Darby gig in London in the 90's. I was friends with TTD before he became known hence being given a backstage pass. Back stage, I bumped into a guy in front of me. Straight into his eyes. I literally had a multilevel experience of the cosmos, stars & all, which took me through a light vortex. We each grabbed each other's arms to steady ourselves & he said “Oh lady, you are beautiful, thank you”! When I stepped back from this man, it was only then I realized it was Keith Richards! That is the level he & this band are able to manifest. He put it down to me I put it down to him, but that was a dual catalytic experience. And no, I do not do drugs or drink alcohol whatsoever. Pure cosmic energy at play.
""With no lovin' in our souls and no money in our coats" is one of the first lines that made me think about the way good rock lyrics are written. The first part is very abstract and dramatic, setting the emotional stakes of the song very high. It's also rather grand and full of pathos, and if the lyrics continued in that way they'd risk becoming pretentious and cheesy. Instead, it immediately turns toward a more grim and unsentimental material reality, "we're freakin' broke." But it does this with a single concrete image, empty coat pockets, which also highlights the cold, wintry mood of the song. When I first heard it, I wondered why it was so striking, and that's when I realized that how you say something, how you show things to the listener instead of just telling them things, is really the most important thing.
This is such a beautiful song indeed. I don't know why, but as I'm getting older, I'm becoming very emotional when I hear or see beautiful things. That's why Angie is one of the songs I prefer to listen when I'm alone. So no one can see the tears in my eyes.
Same here. Interesting story. Decades ago while still living with my parents, we were watching a heart wrenching story on a Vietnam vet who finally was able to bring his dead best friends items from during the war, to his family. I was sitting to right of my parents. The left side of my face was dry, but the right side was soaked with tears streaming down. Somehow I was able to subconsciously control what side my tears would run down my face. It has happened again on different sides. Weird. But there are times when the pressure builds up so that I have to leave the room, so that no one catches me welling up with tears. I have too much empathy, I guess.
The best thing about these videos isn't all the amazing musical insight but watching Rick's eyes get big as he air pianos and pulls faces like it's 1973 and he just bought this record, you're hearing it for the first time and it is really, really, REALLY important that you dig this song because it's just the fucking BEST, man.
I'm surprised Rick's love of this song isn't more widely reflected in the public. I've always thought it's one of the greatest songs I've heard, but it doesn't quite get that level of reputation somehow. Perhaps it's too private and pained to get spoken of a lot? It's a darkly inspired, deeply authentic song that touches you within.
👍🏻. Yes indeed…. Such a lovely song. It very much reminds me of my Mom. She would always sing this when it came up on the radio back in the 1970’s. R.I.P. Lilly ❤️
Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts, understated and underrated. Stones story: I worked for a sound company, got a call they needed a 24 channel snake for a band called the Cockroaches. We knew it was the Stones who had been rehearsing for a tour at Longview Farm Studios in Massachusetts. The "Cockroaches" were doing a warm up gig for their tour at a 300 seat club in Worcester Mass. Called Sir Morgans Cove. I arrive with the snake and the police stop me saying "You can't go in there", I say look I don't care they called us for the snake, if I don't get in it's on you. I turn to walk and the cop says he'll check. In I go. The soundman says in a deep southern drawl, Well we're past the point of needing that but you can stay. I'm leaning against the stage and this big dude in a black tee shirt like mine calls a group of black tee shirts to the front of the stage. He starts giving security instructions and he assigns me the floor downstage right center Uh...OKAY...doors open. I'm doing security for the Stones. The crowd enters, band goes on, yeah the real Stones at arms length. You'd think they would not be too stoked playing for 300 people. Wrong! Jagger specifically and the entire band could not have been more exuberant in their performance, I was totally shocked and impressed by their professionalism and energy. Needless to say I have been a fan ever since. I kept expecting to wake up from that dream but Nope, Walter Mitty life moment...Priceless! And no I never tried to collect a security paycheck...
What a great story! Thanks for sharing it here. I’ve missed all of the impromptu live performances the Stones have done in NYC over the years, which has been frustrating, to say the least. Speaking of paychecks, The Rolling Stones have managed to get a big chunk out of mine and many other people’s but I don’t regret any of it. I just blew a lot on their 2 shows in NJ and had a great time. Big congrats to you for getting to see their stage magic in such an intimate setting, and for free!
I saw them in 1978 at the Fox Theater in Atlanta. My brother and his friends camped out for tickets. When he gave me my ticket it said the Cockroaches on it. I said "Hey what is this?" He said that's your ticket for the Rolling Stones! They even sold T-shirts at the concert that said the Cockroaches on them.
Two things about Beato. 1. He has a deep love of a wide variety of music. 2. He talks like you're someone he knows and you FEEL like he's actually speaking to you.
Totally. I feel like I am listening to records with a friend. I would love to hang out with him and listen to records and talk about music, but I guess I already do.
What makes RUclips great? Every episode from Rick Beato Thank you Sir, you share your passion and love for music with us, which is truly inspiring and your content is outstanding. Keep on going, Rick!
@@c.w_ No. The eighties and nineties largely sucked too IMO. Especially when compared to the sixties and seventies. And I was a teenager in the Eighties.
@@timdoherty101 Nah, you gotta show some love to the fantastic indie acts of the 80s/early 90s at least! The Replacements, REM, The Dream Syndicate, Jane's Addiction, Swervedriver, The Cranberries... whatever you were into, there was something wonderful out there.
I had never appreciated what a complex song this was. Great to see Rick Beato sharing his love for a favorite classic song. These videos help to keep the music alive!
Mr Beato brings up songs that have been beaten to death on the radio and takes them apart before our very eyes and reassembles them with a new gift of life and magic. Wonderful
I slow danced with a girl back then, at age 13, to this song. Had just started middle school here (our sort of high school) It was magic. Now that i hear it again, i go back to then. Its 50 years ago. But also just yesterday.
I was there on 17 October 1973 at Vorst National in Brussels….Billy Preston on keyboards, Mick Taylor on lead and slide, Steve Madaio on trumpet, Trevor Lawrence on saxophone…..Keith called this one of the Stones best concerts ever….the band was cooking and yes Angie was amazing live 👏👏👏👏great video 😎🥂
This has always been my favorite RS song. I never knew until now others felt the same way! As a non-musician, much of your analysis is over my head, but it helps me appreciate the song even more, and I'm very grateful for that. Your joy is wonderfully infectious, and again, thanks for sharing that.
If I get a notification from Rick, I stop everything and click. Then I hit like before he starts talking. You’re the man sir! Thanks from all of us... cheers
I'm am so happy you finally did a stones song.. my favorite band. I love jamming Stones songs because of the chord progressions. Almost none of the stones songs are not simple 1 ,4, 5 . Honky Tonk women has suck a cool chord progression that is hard to follow when your doing lead and easy to mess up on because it follows 2 patterns . The other thing is Rolling Stones is Happy music , even this song has a positive uplifting ending. That piano analysis section at 7:50 was excellent really enjoyed that , love you videos
I hadn't seen rick as emotionally moved and animated as in this video, Its wonderful to have you make videos for all of us music lovers out here to watch Rick. Thanks for being yourself and grateful that you chose to do Everything Music. Many congrats on the million mark!
Wow, Rick! I must have heard this song thousands of times ( huge RS fan), but this maybe is the first time I really listened & with your enthusiasm, it has brought tears. Thanks!
I'm hoping for "Sympathy for the Devil." But, there's just too many classic Stones songs that Rick could make an entire spin-off series just dedicated to them.
I was really hoping this would be Gimme Shelter (although Rick made me appreciate a song I had probably underappreciated). But for me, the greatest sound ever recorded was the female singer's voice breaking at the 3 minute mark of Gimme Shelter on the word "murder". I feel that one in my spine. Just the sheer power of that voice exploding into this piercing white light scream is so amazing and satisfying. I feel that one in my soul as much as I hear it. And then you can hear someone in the studio react to it with a holler... so cool.
The amount of effort you put into doing this, and the amount you put in this episode specifically is staggering, and it doesn't go unnoticed. The best episodes for me are the ones where you love the song so much you are "nerding out" the whole time, and your enthusiasm is infectious. Angie is definitely a spectacular song. I just wanted you to know you inspired a complacent guitarist in his early twenties to pick up the piano and finally learn music theory.
Got to be honest! before today I never really enjoyed this song but now I see the whole picture... it has a lot of soul...unreal. Incredible talent the Stones!!
@@eqx7168 I was just gonna say the same thing. He started using it pretty early and then really used it when he went to the 5-string G tuning. He's also the master of coming up with new ways of playing the I-IV-V changes. First time I heard "Start Me Up" I KNEW it was him even before Mick came in with the vocal, and I thought "Damn, Keith, there's another one".
A great segment. I love that you have this as your fave song. Often musicians who are very sophisticated start to lose track of the core beauties and songs. Anyone who knows me, knows that all my life I have been a huge and total Stones devotee, so this clip is extra good. The Stones were firing on all cylinders in early 70's, and so much of the charm came from understated parts like Bill's Basslines, or Charlie knowing exactly when to open and close the Hi-Hat (another magical ingredient of this timeless song). When citing Jagger's greatest vocal performances we often mention "Let it Loose", "Sympathy for the Devil" etc. but I. have always thought this is his best. No one, can sing it like he did; not even he can do it anymore. The high notes in head voice, the gorgeous lyrics. BTw - a good bit of the words were by Keith. Also interesting to note that Taylor hardly is a factor in this song. And normally this would have been his type of song. The best part of the clip IMO (and something that often sums up the Stones' genius) is when Rick says "Did they know what they were doing ? Well, no, but..."
My all time favorite ballad, too, Rick!! I've always wanted someone to break it down as you did, recognizing all the amazing acoustical layers of this song, the acoustic guitar work, Nicky Hopkins unbelieveable piano work, Mick's voice, Charlie's perfect drumming.... But to have you isolate these parts and describe all the chords and notes (most of which is sadly lost on me) makes it still better. I've always tried to isolate them as I'm listening but with no real success. So to have you do it for me - for all of us - was just the best! Thanks Rick!!
Rick, I grew up with a father who was a bass player in alot of bands in the 60s and 70s...played gigs on bills with the young rascals and billy joel when he was in the hassles...he is 71 and still plays in a band that gigs around long island and the city to this day...at any rate I grew up with a musicians ear and always have enjoyed the type of music you present in this series. I have 5 kids now myself...my oldest 2 are musicians and I share this series with them and my father. I love the whole layout of these episodes. It is my favorite thing on you tube. Keep up the good work and I will gladly watch and share any material you put out. Thanks again
It makes me happy that Rick's favorite song is by my favorite band! The Stones are def a specific taste, but for my money they are the greatest rock band ever. They played this song live when I saw them a few years ago.
One thing about the Rolling Stones music is all the subtleties that you never hear the first time you listen. After listening to the recordings multiple times, the brilliance of their songs is realized.
I originally came to Rick’s channel because Ola Englund mentioned Rick’s video for Pantera’s Walk. Since then I have watched as many of Ricks videos as I can, and I have learned so much from him. Just like someone else said, I have heard this song many times in my life, but this is the first time I truly listened....and I was moved to tears. Thank you Rick for everything you do!
Nicky Hopkins is such a genius on piano. Just check out his piano lines on "Oh Yoko" by John Lennon. Incredible stuff ! And what about "Jealous guy" ! Amazing musician ! Thanks rick for putting his work forward. 👍👌
I just love watching people talk about what they love and thsi is a great example of that. You are a fascinating guy Rick (who lives my dream life) but here you make it so real and passionate. I never appreciated the piano on this track (perhaps because I'm a guitarist) but it really adds so much, and the authetic vocals, like Jagger's in the room,. I love this song but this video has allowed me to hear this song with an even deeper appreciation. Seriously, thank you so much.
I had to watch this one again. Beautiful song and a great appreciation by Rick. Les Hall is wonderful here. I so love the piano performance. A small detail that gets me every time is the quick strike on the opened and closed hi-hat in the choruses the first time the name Angie is sung. Such a nice little dynamic touch.
The Pet Sounds Session Box Set was great. I loved hearing the session for God Only Knows. The string session was incredible . Brian was 24 and well in charge of all those seasoned guys . It was all in his head
Steve Rempis Beach Boys are blockers. Would love to see Rick do a WMTSG on them. I think the piano demo version of “Surf’s Up” could be the greatest song ever.
I liked Angie enough, but had never realized how layered and complex the arrangement was despite being a "simple" tune. You've opened my eyes, good sir!
Same here. Favorite song of all time? Wow... I wouldn't have rated it in my top 50. Now? Hmm... I may have to go over my whole list again..... once Rick finishes this series (ha!!).
I’m not generally a fan of the ballad. But gorsh, when you explain it the way Rick does, with the love, you can’t help but see the light. Incredible chord progression that’s disguised..
Moonlight Mile to me is a complete Masterpiece from start to finish, and one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. The empathy Jagger places in a song with emotion written all through it, makes you feel his conscious masculinity in every verse, change and pause. He uses the silence in-between to gesture speak in phrased rhythmic melody. Continental Drift is another user appreciated Jagger styling and masterpiece, no doubt about it the Rolling Stones are masterful musicians. As for Bill Wyman over Darryl jones, Bill had and likely still has that sense of where the Stones sounds will go, so he can create within, unique bass notes and rhythmic structures, whereas Darryl, would be hesitant and try and get by, by maintaining and staying closer to the overall beat. Therefore limiting that unique element of creativity between the Stones. Bill Wyman is deeply missed for that reason alone. Great show on Angie.
Hey man, I've always loved this song. And seeing the look in your eyes around 4:33-5:00 speaks volumes about how deeply you get how cool this is. So thanks. 1M+ subs fully-deserved!
Charlie Watts playing the open hi-hat accent just after the the first whispered “Angie” is perfect. It echoes the whispering sound, leads it to the downbeat and drives the song on. Great! @Rick: I honestly had tears in my eyes watching this video. Thank you!
A gorgeous song. The Stones created classic rockers but also lots of very beautiful ballads. And LOVE your breakdown AND your passion for the music, Rick!! (and MORE STONES, please!)
Thank you for helping me understand why I have loved this song since I was about 9 years old. The 9th and 6th notes have a lot to do with this, as do the amazing lyrics and delivery of them. Wow!
In the mid-80s I went through my Stones phase (not to be confused with my Zeppelin phase, Floyd phase, Hendrix phase, or Beatles phase) and at the time had a gf named Angela. She ended up dumping me, and I remember listening to this song over and over... Back then my heart was broke, but now I look back and realize this song actually helped get me thru my teen heartbreak. Good stuff Rick!!!
This song always remind me of my first head deep romance from about 18-21. We lived together , partied together, raised havoc together, got drunk together, fought each other, and loved each other. It was an absolute burning flame of a relationship that was doomed from the outset. We just came from different worlds, and I was a crazy ass unemplyed muso in a punk rock band and she was the daughter of wealth who had expectaitions on her. So after 3 stormy years it finally end and she left, she couldnt take the poverty anymore, and I couldn't pretend I was someone I wasnt, and I fell into a vortex of self pity and self destruction, and this song was my theme song. Bloody thing. Its so good. Two decades later, we're still friends, but its obvious to both of us, that had we gotten married and tried to make it work, it would have been absolute havok on both of us. "When will these clouds disapear". Maybe in the next life.
Love the way you brought in others to showcase the various parts - Les was firing on all cylinders again. The lighting on the last few vids has been kick ass!
Can I like this more than once? I just shared it with my wife and partner of 35 years, not a musician, on her birthday today, and we shared our love of each other with my love of music. Thanks, Rick.
Some of Stone's best songs are the ballads which resonate throughout my body and soul. Angie, Wild Horses, Ruby Tuesday, Tumblin'Dice, etc are all on my "Chill List".
As a musician i really, really, really appreciate the perspectives of someone who had success in the industry. On top its just so much fun to watch rick enjoy great songs.... LOVE IT
I just want to add that the hi-hat bark that Charlie Watts does after Mick sings "Angie" is absolute perfection and such an integral part of the song that I can hear it in my head even when I hear a cover that doesn't have drums.
Truth! I think the fact that he kept the hats steady and didn't omit one on the snare backbeats is insignificant - Charlie did this practically all the time - the thing Rick is talking about with omitting a HH note with the snare he only does in certain tempo ranges and feels (granted the one alot of their commonly heard hit songs have, and therefore videos show this). But these barks, or those snare hits on Can't You Hear Me Knockin' right after that line (like rapping on the door) are the details and touches that make Charlie so indispensable when he might otherwise be seen as lacking next to more technical drummers.
Delivering newspapers before dawn I'd hear it playing some clunky transistor radio, it was great, great, _great._ When I finally heard it on real hi-fi a few decades later what got me was how raucous it is. On top of its being sublime, they were having a really good time.
I'm a broadcast engineer and many years ago I was at a recording seminar and the lecturer pointed out that when recording to vinyl you MUST have the phasing of anything in the low frequency range (bass and bass drum) right or you risk pushing the needle out of the groove. Then he put a song from "Through the Past Darkly" on an oscilloscope displaying the lisajeux pattern (I won't explain that here... we all have Google) which showed the left and right channels in the "illegal" places which is the fault of the recording engineer. But he finished up saying *_"It just goes to show that you can't mask brilliance"_* 8^)
I agree with you Rick. This is a very beautiful song! As is obvious, my name being Angela, becomes shortened to Angie. As a result, this song has been played to me many times through out my life on several occasions. I know every chord, every word, every second in between, every notion of this song from beginning to end! This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Not only are the words very relatable to my life experiences, but also the combination of musical instruments which creates the beautiful melodies as you have described in great detail, that makes this song such a beautiful and soul filling work of art! Thank yoU Rick. You did a great job here! I just linked on to your subscribe and I love all of your discussion topics!
My late mom and grandmoms fav song! My Grandpa did play as an opening act for Rolling Stones in 1964 in Helsinki. He was a jazz drummer. He´d love your channel! Keep it up
I always loved the song, but your enthusiasm over the song is a beautiful thing to behold. I love your explanation and underpinning music theory references. It gives me deep insight into the song and structure. I take that insight with me into my musical experience. It makes all the difference.
Rick you crack me up with your commentary! “Who does that!” I’m a massive stones fan and a fan of other bands you review and I love your passion for all music and specifically the stones as well! Thank you for this long awaited review!
Oh Rick!! This is literally my earliest memory of music that really moved me. I must have been about 3 or 4 years old and fell deeply in love with this track! I have vague memories of me knowing how to get the record player working in the absence of parents in the day time, and where to put the needle on the album at that age, lol. It was my dad's record. (I was born in 1980 in Zimbabwe). Amazing to hear how this is your favourite track. It's a real gem!! I love it! Here I am now, as a professional musician and producer as an adult. That's where it all started man! With that Am chord! Loving the videos!! (PS: I see what you did there... Ep.73 released in 1973! :P)
Rick, I LOVE your channel. I not only learn more about music (I'm a PolSci major, and I couldn't strum a guitar for the life of me), but I enjoy perfect covers from great music as well! Blessings in Christ Jesus! Keep going!
Not one of my favorite Stones songs, but now I know it's a lot more complex than I thought. Always, always loved the Nicky Hopkins part in this song. Still have a couple of his solo lps on vinyl from back in the day. A HUGELY under appreciated musician, especially for his work throughout the 70's.
I have heard someone say that Keith Richards is one of the really great acoustic players alive. That changed how I listened to the Stones ... started appreciating the amazing acoustic work. Similar to when my son picked up the bass guitar - I started listening to The Who for their bass work - opened the music up to another level.
I remember hearing this song when I was young and instantly loved it. I'd play my brothers records when he was out. I'm surprised this song on that record didn't wear out I played it so much. Anyways I'm stoked to hear it's your favourite song as that makes me realise I've love a good ear for great tunes 🤪
The number of rick's subscribers gives me hope that there are still a lot of people out there that appreciate what it takes to make a good song. It gives me hope that a renaissance is just around the corner. (like the alternative movement in the mid-late 80's that became mainstream in the 90's) Perhaps we can get back to a time when talent was all that mattered and appearance means little.
One of the Rolling Stones' strengths is how their songs often seem simple on the surface, but when you take a deeper dive into them, there's a lot going on that keeps them interesting and make them stand out. Their generation had to find out themselves how to play with simple means and I think that may be the main reason why they came up with uncommon, surprising results. Producers and session musicians naturally also contributed a lot to this.
It's so good to watch someone who can show interesting things about the songs and also enjoy them! Loved this episode! PS: I know it's not their most known song, but I'd love to watch an WMTSG episode about You See Me Crying, from Aerosmith's Toys in The Attic album.
Please, never stop doing these videos! This is by far your best work of the WMTSG Series. Thank you, Rick. Your channel is amazing. Cheers from Paraguay ✌🏻
Again a biiiiiiiiiiig thank you for this great analyse! The 17 Mins were gone in a second. Everyone who loves music should see this and have you as his teacher! Amazing and superb! Nice regards from Munich in Germany!

I’m so sorry for your unbearable loss 💕.
@@girlfromoz712 thank you.
Brought tears to my eyes remembering my dad. I feel your pain.
Sorry for you loss. My dad also loved this tune and he passed away earlier this year
So sorry for your loss.... I lost my son, when he was 13, the empty feeling he left never subsides
I met Keith Richards at a Terence Trent Darby gig in London in the 90's. I was friends with TTD before he became known hence being given a backstage pass. Back stage, I bumped into a guy in front of me. Straight into his eyes. I literally had a multilevel experience of the cosmos, stars & all, which took me through a light vortex. We each grabbed each other's arms to steady ourselves & he said “Oh lady, you are beautiful, thank you”! When I stepped back from this man, it was only then I realized it was Keith Richards! That is the level he & this band are able to manifest. He put it down to me I put it down to him, but that was a dual catalytic experience. And no, I do not do drugs or drink alcohol whatsoever. Pure cosmic energy at play.

The long slow journey to making this into a song production version of Good Eats continues...
Really well done Rick and friends😎👍one of my most memorable songs also
The guests do take it up a notch, not that your solo takedowns of great songs are lacking, Rick.
Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts, understated and underrated.

What a great story! Thanks for sharing it here. I’ve missed all of the impromptu live performances the Stones have done in NYC over the years, which has been frustrating, to say the least. Speaking of paychecks, The Rolling Stones have managed to get a big chunk out of mine and many other people’s but I don’t regret any of it. I just blew a lot on their 2 shows in NJ and had a great time. Big congrats to you for getting to see their stage magic in such an intimate setting, and for free!
How many trillion likes does a band need before they are no longer "underrated" ????
I saw them in 1978 at the Fox Theater in Atlanta. My brother and his friends camped out for tickets. When he gave me my ticket it said the Cockroaches on it.
I said "Hey what is this?" He said that's your ticket for the Rolling Stones! They even sold T-shirts at the concert that said the Cockroaches on them.
What year
September 14, 1981
Two things about Beato.
1. He has a deep love of a wide variety of music.
2. He talks like you're someone he knows and you FEEL like he's actually speaking to you.
Totally. I feel like I am listening to records with a friend. I would love to hang out with him and listen to records and talk about music, but I guess I already do.
Absolutely corect.
3. He will never get over what "that animal Blundetto" did to his kid brother Billy ...
1973. When incredibly beautiful art like this was in the mainstream consciousness. God, where’s my time machine?
These are the best music-related videos on RUclips - period. The professional insights, technical info and passion are awe-inspiring.
Thank you Martin!
@@RickBeato thank you for what you're doing. I'm curious about one thing: do you like The Velvet Underground or Lou Reed's solo stuff?
What makes RUclips great?
Every episode from Rick Beato
Thank you Sir, you share your passion and love for music with us, which is truly inspiring and your content is outstanding. Keep on going, Rick!
And this is why I hardly ever watch tv anymore. There’s much better content on RUclips - if you know where to look 👀
Breaking mid sopranos better
08:05 - "All about the nines". That piano gives me shivers! Amazing.
The 60s and 70s were a musical feast. The talent and creativity are just amazing.
and we didn't even know how good we had it...
80s and 90s were good too! Down hill after that.
But…. No AutoTune…. How DID they create music back then? 😉
@@c.w_
No. The eighties and nineties largely sucked too IMO. Especially when compared to the sixties and seventies. And I was a teenager in the Eighties.
@@timdoherty101 Nah, you gotta show some love to the fantastic indie acts of the 80s/early 90s at least! The Replacements, REM, The Dream Syndicate, Jane's Addiction, Swervedriver, The Cranberries... whatever you were into, there was something wonderful out there.
So many great Rolling Stones songs.. One of my favorites is "Dead Flowers". Just Love the whole 'Sticky Fingers' Album!!
I had never appreciated what a complex song this was. Great to see Rick Beato sharing his love for a favorite classic song. These videos help to keep the music alive!
Mr Beato brings up songs that have been beaten to death on the radio and takes them apart before our very eyes and reassembles them with a new gift of life and magic. Wonderful
One of the best acoustic arrangements of all time. Just the chord progression alone strikes a certain uplifting melancholy in my soul
I slow danced with a girl back then, at age 13, to this song. Had just started middle school here (our sort of high school)
It was magic.
Now that i hear it again, i go back to then.
Its 50 years ago. But also just yesterday.
I was there on 17 October 1973 at Vorst National in Brussels….Billy Preston on keyboards, Mick Taylor on lead and slide, Steve Madaio on trumpet, Trevor Lawrence on saxophone…..Keith called this one of the Stones best concerts ever….the band was cooking and yes Angie was amazing live 👏👏👏👏great video 😎🥂
Their best live performance. I am extremely jealous.
Man, I dont Know what I like more, to see how everything was written or to see how happy is rick explaining the song :)
This has always been my favorite RS song. I never knew until now others felt the same way! As a non-musician, much of your analysis is over my head, but it helps me appreciate the song even more, and I'm very grateful for that. Your joy is wonderfully infectious, and again, thanks for sharing that.
If I get a notification from Rick, I stop everything and click. Then I hit like before he starts talking. You’re the man sir! Thanks from all of us... cheers
Yup same here
And we got the drum set!! Thanks Rick!
I did the EXACT same thing. Out of my head OZABOBODODO!
same!
So you're a sycophant. Like most sheeple.
I turn my playback speed down to 1 for Rick.
I'm am so happy you finally did a stones song.. my favorite band. I love jamming Stones songs because of the chord progressions. Almost none of the stones songs are not simple 1 ,4, 5 . Honky Tonk women has suck a cool chord progression that is hard to follow when your doing lead and easy to mess up on because it follows 2 patterns . The other thing is Rolling Stones is Happy music , even this song has a positive uplifting ending.
That piano analysis section at 7:50 was excellent really enjoyed that , love you videos
I hadn't seen rick as emotionally moved and animated as in this video, Its wonderful to have you make videos for all of us music lovers out here to watch Rick. Thanks for being yourself and grateful that you chose to do Everything Music. Many congrats on the million mark!
Wow, Rick! I must have heard this song thousands of times ( huge RS fan), but this maybe is the first time I really listened & with your enthusiasm, it has brought tears. Thanks!
If you do the Stones again, please do "Gimme Shelter"
I'm hoping for "Sympathy for the Devil." But, there's just too many classic Stones songs that Rick could make an entire spin-off series just dedicated to them.
Graham Wong He should do Gimme Shelter based on Merry Clayton’s vocal performance alone
tbraud88 What makes this song great? There's the answer.
I was really hoping this would be Gimme Shelter (although Rick made me appreciate a song I had probably underappreciated). But for me, the greatest sound ever recorded was the female singer's voice breaking at the 3 minute mark of Gimme Shelter on the word "murder". I feel that one in my spine. Just the sheer power of that voice exploding into this piercing white light scream is so amazing and satisfying. I feel that one in my soul as much as I hear it. And then you can hear someone in the studio react to it with a holler... so cool.
I'm hoping for "Can't You Hear Me Knocking"
The amount of effort you put into doing this, and the amount you put in this episode specifically is staggering, and it doesn't go unnoticed. The best episodes for me are the ones where you love the song so much you are "nerding out" the whole time, and your enthusiasm is infectious. Angie is definitely a spectacular song. I just wanted you to know you inspired a complacent guitarist in his early twenties to pick up the piano and finally learn music theory.
That's awesome that you are learning music theory
Wow, now that is impact: kudos, Mr. Beato!
No-one can explain by pulling apart such a beautiful song as this chap. He has an inborn gift for music, you can tell.
Seriously one of your all time best videos Rick!
This one really makes me cry
Got to be honest! before today I never really enjoyed this song but now I see the whole picture... it has a lot of soul...unreal. Incredible talent the Stones!!
No matter the era or style, suspended chords are so powerful. This is an example of a great use of them.
Keith in a similar vein does them well in Wild Horses too. He is a master of the sus4
@@eqx7168 I was just gonna say the same thing. He started using it pretty early and then really used it when he went to the 5-string G tuning. He's also the master of coming up with new ways of playing the I-IV-V changes. First time I heard "Start Me Up" I KNEW it was him even before Mick came in with the vocal, and I thought "Damn, Keith, there's another one".
A great segment. I love that you have this as your fave song. Often musicians who are very sophisticated start to lose track of the core beauties and songs. Anyone who knows me, knows that all my life I have been a huge and total Stones devotee, so this clip is extra good. The Stones were firing on all cylinders in early 70's, and so much of the charm came from understated parts like Bill's Basslines, or Charlie knowing exactly when to open and close the Hi-Hat (another magical ingredient of this timeless song). When citing Jagger's greatest vocal performances we often mention "Let it Loose", "Sympathy for the Devil" etc. but I. have always thought this is his best. No one, can sing it like he did; not even he can do it anymore. The high notes in head voice, the gorgeous lyrics. BTw - a good bit of the words were by Keith. Also interesting to note that Taylor hardly is a factor in this song. And normally this would have been his type of song. The best part of the clip IMO (and something that often sums up the Stones' genius) is when Rick says "Did they know what they were doing ? Well, no, but..."
My all time favorite ballad, too, Rick!! I've always wanted someone to break it down as you did, recognizing all the amazing acoustical layers of this song, the acoustic guitar work, Nicky Hopkins unbelieveable piano work, Mick's voice, Charlie's perfect drumming.... But to have you isolate these parts and describe all the chords and notes (most of which is sadly lost on me) makes it still better. I've always tried to isolate them as I'm listening but with no real success. So to have you do it for me - for all of us - was just the best! Thanks Rick!!
Rick, I grew up with a father who was a bass player in alot of bands in the 60s and 70s...played gigs on bills with the young rascals and billy joel when he was in the hassles...he is 71 and still plays in a band that gigs around long island and the city to this day...at any rate I grew up with a musicians ear and always have enjoyed the type of music you present in this series. I have 5 kids now myself...my oldest 2 are musicians and I share this series with them and my father. I love the whole layout of these episodes. It is my favorite thing on you tube. Keep up the good work and I will gladly watch and share any material you put out. Thanks again
As I'm watching this, I'm thinking - this guy REALLY loves music! Love your channel, keep up the good work!
It makes me happy that Rick's favorite song is by my favorite band! The Stones are def a specific taste, but for my money they are the greatest rock band ever. They played this song live when I saw them a few years ago.
One thing about the Rolling Stones music is all the subtleties that you never hear the first time you listen. After listening to the recordings multiple times, the brilliance of their songs is realized.
I originally came to Rick’s channel because Ola Englund mentioned Rick’s video for Pantera’s Walk. Since then I have watched as many of Ricks videos as I can, and I have learned so much from him. Just like someone else said, I have heard this song many times in my life, but this is the first time I truly listened....and I was moved to tears. Thank you Rick for everything you do!
I always concentrated on the guitar. This really opened my eyes to the gorgeous piano winding it's way through the piece. Nice bass lines, as well.
Nicky Hopkins is such a genius on piano. Just check out his piano lines on "Oh Yoko" by John Lennon. Incredible stuff ! And what about "Jealous guy" ! Amazing musician ! Thanks rick for putting his work forward. 👍👌
You are slowly but surely reawakening my once 'oh so love and appreciation of music'...love the breakdowns
And Rick reminds the contemporary world what the beauty in music is once again🤙
I just love watching people talk about what they love and thsi is a great example of that. You are a fascinating guy Rick (who lives my dream life) but here you make it so real and passionate. I never appreciated the piano on this track (perhaps because I'm a guitarist) but it really adds so much, and the authetic vocals, like Jagger's in the room,. I love this song but this video has allowed me to hear this song with an even deeper appreciation. Seriously, thank you so much.
I had to watch this one again. Beautiful song and a great appreciation by Rick. Les Hall is wonderful here. I so love the piano performance. A small detail that gets me every time is the quick strike on the opened and closed hi-hat in the choruses the first time the name Angie is sung. Such a nice little dynamic touch.
OK, Rick; you finally got your favorite song. Next, can you hit mine? GOD ONLY KNOWS, by Brian Wilson/ The Beach Boys??? Lots to study there.
The Pet Sounds Session Box Set was great. I loved hearing the session for God Only Knows. The string session was incredible . Brian was 24 and well in charge of all those seasoned guys . It was all in his head
Steve Rempis Beach Boys are blockers. Would love to see Rick do a WMTSG on them. I think the piano demo version of “Surf’s Up” could be the greatest song ever.
God Only Knows and/or Good Vibrations would be amazing.
I liked Angie enough, but had never realized how layered and complex the arrangement was despite being a "simple" tune. You've opened my eyes, good sir!
Same here. Favorite song of all time? Wow... I wouldn't have rated it in my top 50. Now? Hmm... I may have to go over my whole list again..... once Rick finishes this series (ha!!).
I’m not generally a fan of the ballad. But gorsh, when you explain it the way Rick does, with the love, you can’t help but see the light. Incredible chord progression that’s disguised..
Aye!
That's the Stones. Check out all the layers on Wild Horses. There's like 5 guitars on that.

Rod, this songs sounds,
of each-n-every instrument, to you sounds,
"simple" tune,
are you serious ?
Moonlight Mile to me is a complete Masterpiece from start to finish, and one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. The empathy Jagger places in a song with emotion written all through it, makes you feel his conscious masculinity in every verse, change and pause. He uses the silence in-between to gesture speak in phrased rhythmic melody. Continental Drift is another user appreciated Jagger styling and masterpiece, no doubt about it the Rolling Stones are masterful musicians. As for Bill Wyman over Darryl jones, Bill had and likely still has that sense of where the Stones sounds will go, so he can create within, unique bass notes and rhythmic structures, whereas Darryl, would be hesitant and try and get by, by maintaining and staying closer to the overall beat. Therefore limiting that unique element of creativity between the Stones. Bill Wyman is deeply missed for that reason alone. Great show on Angie.
Heaven is great too
@@dominicsisto9420 Totally agree!
Your favorite song, and you have done it justice. Thanks Rick, we are blessed to have you.
Wow 5 years in and just seeing this and so glad to hear this is your favourite. A totally legit #1 song!
Hey man, I've always loved this song. And seeing the look in your eyes around 4:33-5:00 speaks volumes about how deeply you get how cool this is. So thanks. 1M+ subs fully-deserved!
Nicky Hopkins; THE piano player. My personal favorite Nicky riff is from "Loving Cup".
"Gimme little drink..."
GIrl from Mill Valley
just one drink!
Thank you Rick, your enthusiasm for music just makes me realise how much i really love music. no click. if it sounds right it is right.
Charlie Watts playing the open hi-hat accent just after the the first whispered “Angie” is perfect. It echoes the whispering sound, leads it to the downbeat and drives the song on. Great!
@Rick: I honestly had tears in my eyes watching this video. Thank you!
A gorgeous song. The Stones created classic rockers but also lots of very beautiful ballads. And LOVE your breakdown AND your passion for the music, Rick!! (and MORE STONES, please!)
Videos like this are why you have a million subscribers. So so good.
Rick, Your Love Of Music always shines like a beacon on a stormy night.
Thank you Bryan!
Thank you for helping me understand why I have loved this song since I was about 9 years old. The 9th and 6th notes have a lot to do with this, as do the amazing lyrics and delivery of them. Wow!
I was nine also.
In the mid-80s I went through my Stones phase (not to be confused with my Zeppelin phase, Floyd phase, Hendrix phase, or Beatles phase) and at the time had a gf named Angela. She ended up dumping me, and I remember listening to this song over and over... Back then my heart was broke, but now I look back and realize this song actually helped get me thru my teen heartbreak. Good stuff Rick!!!
This song always remind me of my first head deep romance from about 18-21. We lived together , partied together, raised havoc together, got drunk together, fought each other, and loved each other. It was an absolute burning flame of a relationship that was doomed from the outset. We just came from different worlds, and I was a crazy ass unemplyed muso in a punk rock band and she was the daughter of wealth who had expectaitions on her. So after 3 stormy years it finally end and she left, she couldnt take the poverty anymore, and I couldn't pretend I was someone I wasnt, and I fell into a vortex of self pity and self destruction, and this song was my theme song. Bloody thing. Its so good. Two decades later, we're still friends, but its obvious to both of us, that had we gotten married and tried to make it work, it would have been absolute havok on both of us. "When will these clouds disapear". Maybe in the next life.
Love the way you brought in others to showcase the various parts - Les was firing on all cylinders again.
The lighting on the last few vids has been kick ass!
One of the Stones' many masterpieces. Thank you so much Rick!
I never thought about it, that might be the best song ever Written.
I've been watching these videos since 9 this morning. It is now 4:27 and I can't seem to stop. Thank you so much Rick Beato!
Can I like this more than once? I just shared it with my wife and partner of 35 years, not a musician, on her birthday today, and we shared our love of each other with my love of music. Thanks, Rick.
Favorite Stones song. Absolutely LOVE this song ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Some of Stone's best songs are the ballads which resonate throughout my body and soul. Angie, Wild Horses, Ruby Tuesday, Tumblin'Dice, etc are all on my "Chill List".
Good list, but Tumbling Dice is not a ballad.
As Tears Go By, She's a Rainbow
Tumbling dice sounds like a normal song at first but for some unexplainable reason, it's one of the most mind blowing songs ever.
The way you break these songs down is fantastic. I sometimes hear things I never noticed before. Thanks Rick!!
I was hoping it was gonna be my favorite song by the stones, but you can’t always get what you want.
I see wat u did there
Did you get what you need?
@@TheIronDuke9 Sometimes.
I was hoping for either 'Start Me Up' or 'Emotional Rescue' - and got one of my least liked Stones songs x-))
@@mightyV444 You should check your ears dude
I was moved to tears with your love and understanding of this beautiful, eternal song.
As a musician i really, really, really appreciate the perspectives of someone who had success in the industry. On top its just so much fun to watch rick enjoy great songs.... LOVE IT
I just want to add that the hi-hat bark that Charlie Watts does after Mick sings "Angie" is absolute perfection and such an integral part of the song that I can hear it in my head even when I hear a cover that doesn't have drums.
Truth! I think the fact that he kept the hats steady and didn't omit one on the snare backbeats is insignificant - Charlie did this practically all the time - the thing Rick is talking about with omitting a HH note with the snare he only does in certain tempo ranges and feels (granted the one alot of their commonly heard hit songs have, and therefore videos show this). But these barks, or those snare hits on Can't You Hear Me Knockin' right after that line (like rapping on the door) are the details and touches that make Charlie so indispensable when he might otherwise be seen as lacking next to more technical drummers.
I love this chord progression! And these are some of Mick Jagger's most tonally beautiful vocals.
Angie has always been my favourite Rolling Stones song, so it’s a joy to hear it given the Mr B treatment. Thank you!
Delivering newspapers before dawn I'd hear it playing some clunky transistor radio, it was great, great, _great._
When I finally heard it on real hi-fi a few decades later what got me was how raucous it is. On top of its being sublime, they were having a really good time.
Maybe your best video of this series. I can feel your passion for the song. Great stuff.
The piano part is like a thread tying all the phrasing together. The way it fills in and pulls you to the next verse is amazing.
I'm a broadcast engineer and many years ago I was at a recording seminar and the lecturer pointed out that when recording to vinyl you MUST have the phasing of anything in the low frequency range (bass and bass drum) right or you risk pushing the needle out of the groove.
Then he put a song from "Through the Past Darkly" on an oscilloscope displaying the lisajeux pattern (I won't explain that here... we all have Google) which showed the left and right channels in the "illegal" places which is the fault of the recording engineer.
But he finished up saying *_"It just goes to show that you can't mask brilliance"_*
8^)
I agree with you Rick. This is a very beautiful song! As is obvious, my name being Angela, becomes shortened to Angie. As a result, this song has been played to me many times through out my life on several occasions. I know every chord, every word, every second in between, every notion of this song from beginning to end! This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Not only are the words very relatable to my life experiences, but also the combination of musical instruments which creates the beautiful melodies as you have described in great detail, that makes this song such a beautiful and soul filling work of art!
Thank yoU Rick. You did a great job here! I just linked on to your subscribe and I love all of your discussion topics!
Beautifull. Such a blessing 'living' the masterpiece song with you. These legends have to be shared. Greetings from Israel.
Toda raba
My late mom and grandmoms fav song! My Grandpa did play as an opening act for Rolling Stones in 1964 in Helsinki. He was a jazz drummer. He´d love your channel! Keep it up
I always loved the song, but your enthusiasm over the song is a beautiful thing to behold. I love your explanation and underpinning music theory references. It gives me deep insight into the song and structure. I take that insight with me into my musical experience. It makes all the difference.
I'm simple, when I see Rick video involving the Stones, I stop in complete excitement to see! Great work man!
Rick you crack me up with your commentary! “Who does that!” I’m a massive stones fan and a fan of other bands you review and I love your passion for all music and specifically the stones as well! Thank you for this long awaited review!
The Stone's ballads were incredible!
Oh Rick!! This is literally my earliest memory of music that really moved me. I must have been about 3 or 4 years old and fell deeply in love with this track! I have vague memories of me knowing how to get the record player working in the absence of parents in the day time, and where to put the needle on the album at that age, lol. It was my dad's record. (I was born in 1980 in Zimbabwe).
Amazing to hear how this is your favourite track. It's a real gem!! I love it! Here I am now, as a professional musician and producer as an adult. That's where it all started man! With that Am chord!
Loving the videos!! (PS: I see what you did there... Ep.73 released in 1973! :P)
Rick, I LOVE your channel. I not only learn more about music (I'm a PolSci major, and I couldn't strum a guitar for the life of me), but I enjoy perfect covers from great music as well! Blessings in Christ Jesus! Keep going!
"Angie is my favorite song of all time."
*names daughter "Layla."*
I didn’t say it was my favorite name
@@RickBeato Touche
Great, comic exchange.
That's funny. 😂
Who wants to name their daughter after someone who's getting rejected in a song? derp.
The key change from G to F goes from happy and hopeful to depression, just like the lyrics of the song.
Its genius
@@wesleyAlan9179 it is.
that's when a song really connects ... lyrics, chords, and emotions all perfectly together
@@soulscanner66 ..ya damn right
At least it isn't Dm, the saddest of all keys.........
Thanks. Like what others have said, i have heard this song for the first time again after a million listens
Wow - just love your joy
Your Little kid hand and facial expressions are wonderful
Really gained a new appreciation for Angie
Thank you!
Not one of my favorite Stones songs, but now I know it's a lot more complex than I thought. Always, always loved the Nicky Hopkins part in this song. Still have a couple of his solo lps on vinyl from back in the day. A HUGELY under appreciated musician, especially for his work throughout the 70's.
I have heard someone say that Keith Richards is one of the really great acoustic players alive.
That changed how I listened to the Stones ... started appreciating the amazing acoustic work.
Similar to when my son picked up the bass guitar - I started listening to The Who for their bass work - opened the music up to another level.
The interesting parts and chord/key changes are because it is an acoustic guitar piece. This song is a function of its instrument.
Yeah that Entwistle guy is kinda ok, huh.
Guy Werry I remember GE Smith making that distinction in that series of interviews he did.
I remember hearing this song when I was young and instantly loved it. I'd play my brothers records when he was out. I'm surprised this song on that record didn't wear out I played it so much. Anyways I'm stoked to hear it's your favourite song as that makes me realise I've love a good ear for great tunes 🤪
You guys sound great, the voice the guitar the piano,wow is all I can say
The number of rick's subscribers gives me hope that there are still a lot of people out there that appreciate what it takes to make a good song. It gives me hope that a renaissance is just around the corner. (like the alternative movement in the mid-late 80's that became mainstream in the 90's) Perhaps we can get back to a time when talent was all that mattered and appearance means little.
One of the Rolling Stones' strengths is how their songs often seem simple on the surface, but when you take a deeper dive into them, there's a lot going on that keeps them interesting and make them stand out. Their generation had to find out themselves how to play with simple means and I think that may be the main reason why they came up with uncommon, surprising results. Producers and session musicians naturally also contributed a lot to this.
It's so good to watch someone who can show interesting things about the songs and also enjoy them! Loved this episode!
PS: I know it's not their most known song, but I'd love to watch an WMTSG episode about You See Me Crying, from Aerosmith's Toys in The Attic album.
The amount rick said "Its beautiful" in this video

Absolutely my favorite Stones song. Your videos rock.
Please, never stop doing these videos!
This is by far your best work of the WMTSG Series.
Thank you, Rick. Your channel is amazing.
