Lost my dad at 40. This song was his favorite. Breaks my heart everytime I hear it. Alcoholism is not a joke and should be taken very seriously. RIP dad 1980-2021 ☹🕊⚰
I'm so sorry for you and your Dad. I'm struggling with alcoholism right now. I'm sitting here crying with a gun In my hand just want to end it all. I go thru this all the time. I was once sober for 3 years, but I just lost it all 3 months ago and haven't stopped yet. But I love you and understand. Please live on for your father.
I lost my father at 45 to a heart attack, but he lived his life like he would die tomorrow. He loved the rolling stones especially, wild horse. That was 15 years ago and I still listen to this song and think of him. Miss that crazy man everyday.
I remember I was 5 when i first heard this song , my pop was doing woodwork in his garage and we started dancing , with me standing on his feet .. I thank him for my old and classic taste in music . Love you poppa ❤
This was my brothers wedding song. Loved his rolling stones for sure. Lost my brother last year and was a 40plus year fan. I'll keep playing the stones for you Bro...til we meet again
This song takes me back to being 16 and just starting to get to know my dad as an adult and not just a parents. It’s been 4 years since my dad died and it’s still hard to catch my breath!!! Everything changed.....wish I could go back to those moments with him! I miss you every day dad..... I love you more than you’ll ever know!
It's sometimes hard to hear this song.... Growing up watching my dad in the kitchen, drunk playing his harmonica and singing this song, he lost the love of his life, my mom... My dad never remarried. He lived 14 years without her until god took him too.... Sorry for not getting it sooner dad, I know the pain u felt cuz now I feel the same now that youre gone... R. I. P mom and dad
Lyrically as meaningful as poetry Full of emotions and sadness Easily one of the greatest song ever written and may very well be the stones's magnum opus
Jesse..my brother. They called me this morning and told me you were dead. I have listened to every song I could think of from our childhood. I am hurting so bad I can hardly breathe. I would give anything to hear your voice just one more time. RIP Jesse 7/17/61 - 3/13/20 ...God I hope you are with mom and dad. Love you, brother xo
Time flies so fast! When your young: Date- Marry- Have family- Work till your body is broken- Then,everyone is gone on their way! 😮 Feel the PAIN of Loneliness & body hurts!! Stay home,feed the birds & squirrels! Look at old videos & pictures!! Getting old is Lonely!!!!!!!!!!😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I may be to young cuz im 14 and i might not understand the poetic side of this wonderful song but i know something I will never stop listening to this song even when im gonna be an adult and understand anything Found the beaty of the music there
The simple fact that you can acknowledge the complete internal emotional affect this has on people, especially your young self to make that kind of statement definitely proves you know a lot more than you're giving yourself credit for. My 36-year-old advice is to continue keeping an open mind.... don't forget this older, more sentimental, personal side of musical expression, always give new things a chance but never stray from whatever it is inside you compelling goodness and compassion! So many things will influence who you will become but if you stay true to what makes your soul feel good you will love you a lot more!
Don't limit yourself. Explore every genre of music, every era, every decade. You'll find shining gems in each and every category. If you play an instrument, keep at it!! Even ten minutes per day, practice. There is a soul deep feeling about creating one's own music. Interesting factoid: Evolutionary biologists cannot explain music, insofar as it having conferred any advantage to aiding our species' survival. It is, simply a gift. I say a gift from God. 🎼❤️🙏🏻
I couldn't play this or any song around my father especially since my mom passed away because this was 1 of her favorite songs. My father was a very difficult man to get along with. When my mom passed away my father didn't want my help and didn't want me around (I was 50 when she died). I tried to help this stubburn man who i watched get very depressed and mentally deteriorate for almost 10 years. My mom passed in November 2009 and my father locked himself in his bedroom for 1 and a half days and i used a screw driver to open his bedroom door and found him dead from a heart attack in April 2019. My father was a very stubborn man and you could not play music around him and he would also complain to my mom about listening to any kind of music and my mom loved this song but she played it anyway, even though he was a hard man i do miss him but i miss my mom more and i'm gonna be 64 in the beginning of September..R.I.P. to my mom and my father 🙏 😞
I needed to say this somewhere. I know this song was actually supposed to be about but it also inadvertently lines up with something totally off the wall different and serious as a heart attack with my life. My interpretation of this song helped me cope after my mom’s suicide. I am 20 years old and my whole life my mom had dealt with manic bipolar depression with suicidal tendencies as well as digestive issues so bad that she basically couldn’t hold down any food towards the end. Her bipolar issues made her lash out and be more self destructive and bridge burning than one could possibly imagine. When I was a baby my parents separated and my mom had my brother with some other guy and they had a custody battle and her mental issues caused her to lose. As the years passed she’d make friends, lash out one day, then lose them. We moved 16 times through it all so that made it worse for everyone. It was extremely hard getting by with her constantly yelling at me. It was hard to see the good things when they were all trapped in that cloud of bad. I knew how much she cared about my sister and I and she proved time and time again that she’d move mountains for us, but at that same time lay into us verbally on bad days when we didn’t know any better. It always stayed like that and her physical health kept getting worse. She went through a lot of relationships and finally it worked out perfectly with my stepdad. Around the time I was a junior in high school I was in a toxic relationship and the girl broke up with me at my birthday party. My mom really did everything in her power to help me feel better because I was in a dark place and she knew the feeling. The bad thing about when her manic bipolarity kicked in, she’d always hurl insults that cut to your core. We got into this fight and usually I’d just take it with a grain of salt and not talk back bc deescalation was the only way to deal with it but this fight was very bad. “it was no wonder why your girlfriend left... you’re not really depressed.... You’re the source of my depression”. I knew she didn’t mean any of it but it’s hard to understand how a mental disorder makes you say those things. She was only feeling worse and worse. Luckily I found a new girlfriend in an unlikely place and we have stuck together ever since, but my mom’s disorders were getting worse and worse and that led to the divorce proceedings with my stepdad. My mom and I had a falling out last summer and she literally showed up to my work and made an entire scene. I moved out and stayed at my grandparents for a bit. She eventually realized how heavy handed her actions were. She apologized and begged me to come back. I told her I accepted and would visit but I couldn’t come back because it was a really bad environment. Then she grew really attached to my dog who was still staying with her. I guess she saw me in him. Unfortunately a perfect shitstorm hit and he got cancer really bad and they ended up having to put him down. I didn’t even get to be there because I was out of town, but she was so broken from that. She begged me again to come back and I have to tell you that was the most difficult decision I ever made in my life. I said no but I’d still visit. Every visit after that she wouldn’t really talk to me and she was adamant that I hated her when really after everything we’d been through I loved her and I was only doing what was best. As the divorce went along she eventually found that she was going to lose everything from it. At this point her body couldn’t even digest food like her body was giving up as fast as her spirit. I was in my college class when I got the call from my sister telling me my mom told her goodbye. I raced to the house but it was too late. I won’t go into details but it took so much out of everyone. She didn’t even talk to me in the last 2 weeks and didn’t even say goodbye or that she loved me. I knew she meant it but maybe she couldn’t bring herself to talk to me. I know in my heart how much she loved me. We knew she was going to leave us but there was no stopping it. When I sit here at night and think about all the good with the bad and the fact that I can’t escape the thoughts of the last days and the funeral I turn to this song. The Rolling Stones have no idea how much this song envelopes the whole dynamic I had with her. I sing this from her perspective: She always made sure I got the things I needed and I had a good Christmas. She was there with me through the hard times, even though she fought with me she didn’t mean it. She depended on me more than I knew at the time. Her mental demons couldn’t drag her away from the fact that she would always be with me. “I watched you suffer A dull aching pain Now you've decided To show me the same“ That was my decision to not return home. I still regret it but looking back I still don’t know what I would have done to stop it if I knew, because it was still going to happen. “I know I've dreamed you A sin and a lie I have my freedom But I don't have much time” In her efforts to get me back, she tried to smear my name with my grandparents to get them to kick me out so I’d have to return, but they still knew better. It was childish but it was another one of those bipolar decisions out of desperation. She knew she didn’t have much time left with me because she knew she was getting worse, so she wanted what time she could get out of me. I regret not visiting more, but I didn’t know it would happen that soon while there was distance between us. “Faith has been broken Tears must be cried Let's do some living After we die” Faith broken in that she took her own life even though she had formed a deeper connection with god towards the end. It left me feeling empty but it had been a long time coming and there is bittersweetness in that she is no longer suffering. Do some living after we die makes me pray that I see her again in the afterlife and I can finally speak to her when the abundant grace of our maker has restored her with a new body and cleared the demons that tormented her mind. I love her and I miss her and this song puts everything into words better than I ever could.
I'm so sorry My mother has done a lot of the same. I let it ruin my life and my ex boyfriends life 17 years ago. I'm happy to know you didnt let it ruin your life.
You are a very wise young man with a very old soul. Your insight will get you through this game called life. It's too bad my son could not see through my pain and how much I loved him. His head was filled with God awful lies about me and I was out numbered and defenseless. I am 61 and he is 31 the last time he spoke to me was very hurtful and I guess it made it easier for me to let him go. I could not fix what I did not break. That was over 10 years ago.....if he only knew the truth.
my father passed away last august in 2019, this was the song that was played at the funeral for this was the very first song they danced to, I come back to listen to it and just think of all the good memories we had, and even though I can't find a true reason for why him, I just have to trust God's plan. We loved each other so much and I would do everything with him, and he told me that I was his favorite. I can"t seem to find purpose now but have to live life the best I can but am still so happy that he was my father for 13 years, even if that was short, He brought me so much joy and was so proud of me, but i wish i could hug him just one more time. I love hotwheels and he would always buy me a couple any time we went out and i put my favorite one into his coffin. I just pray for any one who has or is going through this and just know I love you.
God bless you both. We will see our loved ones again someday. They see us still, they smile for us. We should all smile for the ones who've went before us. I hope this message finds you both in good spirits.
@@robinramos5402 I'm so sorry to hear that about your father. I will pray for u and ur family. What a beautiful song choice though.....when leaving this world and entering the pearly gates of Heaven.
This was the best era. The 70s. Although I love the music from the 90s which I grew up in but my dad showed me what real music was. This was my dad's favorite stone's song. I miss you dad! Rest in peace! Maybe I'll be lucky enough to see you on the other side someday.
This song reminds me of my great grandmother who passed away, she passed away at 81 and she was a loving funny lady she was always so happy and she always showed up to every grand and funeral, and it was my turn to show up to hers. It was very heart breaking knowing i cant see her no more. She’ll always live in our hearts. 6/11/2024
This song is a hauntingly beautiful ballad one of their best. We are here now where wild horses couldn't drag us away. Thanks for this song Stones. But I also love it by Gram Parsons.
She died of a stroke and watching her eyes and fear on her face was enough to kill me inside. I was completely helpless and than she let go and was gone forever. I miss my mom everyday.
🤗🤗 she is far from fear, pain, and loss. And she feels your love through time and dimension. ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻 Energy is neither created nor destroyed. I believe this applies to human consciousness, aka, our souls. I don't "know" any more than anyone else what happens when our bodies die, but, I have a feeling it's going to feel familiar, and comfortable, and like, oh yeah... I remember being here many times. Have you ever been having an intense dream, but when you wake up, you can't recall what that dream you were in mere seconds ago was about?? I dunno, maybe that's what death feels like. All that having been said, I'm so sorry for your loss. May her memory be as a blessing. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
My mother loves the rolling stones. I think about her every time im listening to this song and miss her when ever i do. Im not sure exactly what the stones wrote this song about but i connect it strongly with the decision to get sober as an addict. You always tell yourself youre going to break free of your addiction some day but you keep putting it off until getting clean turns into a distant dream and you hope some day it will happen. The line "I have my freedom but I dont have much time" also makes me think about how the ectasy you feel from drugs only lasts a short time and it always catches up with you. It also makes me cry because it makes me think about my youth and how im wasting my time stuck in this rut. When youre young you feel you have all the freedom to do what you please but life is short and none of us have as much time as we think we have. -Andi
Not sure what you're on but, if I was able to get myself off of heroin and methadone, you can get off of whatever you're on. What fucks us up the most, is the mental shit. That much I do know. But keep this in mind, the longer you stay on them damn drugs, the longer it's going to take for you to get back to actually really feeling and thinking normal. I remember someone telling me that and sure enough, the years I spent on drugs was the same amount of years it took before I actually felt like a normal person. It wasn't a bad thing, cuz I was already feeling normal but I was just proud of myself not just for staying sober but for the fact that I almost forgot I did that shit. Just know the mental thing is a real struggle, so remember that. You're gonna have that anxiety and depression for possibly about a year longer. But just stay strong, think positive and if you believe in God pray to God to give you guidance and strength to beat It. If I could give my life story right now, I should have been dead, no bullshit. So don't EVER, EVER doubt yourself cuz I used to say the exact same thing you did. As a matter of fact, I thought I couldn't live without the bullshit. I couldn't handle my brain sober. Yet watching some RUclips videos on people getting off this shit and what they describe the emotions and feelings they go through. Cuz that's the thing that always gets us, it's the mental shit that comes along as our body's natural chemistry is adjusting back to normal. So hang in there stay strong because, you got this.💪
The only way to give up an addiction is to have a reality check. Realize what you are doing to your mind and body internally . Plan a day soon to make changes coz further down the line you will add 20 or more years onto life.. Ask yourself do you want to inflict this torment on yourself. It's hard before it gets any easier. . Get support. When you've gone through battles you have the heart and strength of a Warrior.
It is so hard to get off drugs. I keep telling myself the same thing I'll do it tomorrow or tomorrow it was always tomorrow just go and do it it wont be easy it's hard but just one day at a time. I realize now that this post is 8 months old but I hope that u r doing good and off the drugs and moving forward. Much love and prayers 🙏🙏♥️♥️
You can win at money or football or life in general. But when you've truly loved and lost. It's the meaning of life. Truly. Incredibly humbling and depressing and lord shall I go further... thank you holly gunnoe. Thank you for the heart break. I needed it , I needed the wake up call. And I'm both sorry and grateful for EVERYTHING. miss you forevermore. ❤🤯💍 to be continued....
For my brother who has gone to heaven. I love you so much and im so glad you’re not suffering anymore ... but man this hole in my heart sure is a deep aching pain... I miss you so much. R.I.P John feb, 17, 2021
I wish I heard this song when I was 9. Music 🎶 always helped me cope. Miss you dad R.I.P. I think about you often. You would be so proud of me. I have 4 beautiful babies and I am married to a man who loves me for me.
I used to take care of a guy in the early stages of multiple sclerosis. He was in a band and they played this song all the time. I loved hearing them play as I worked in his house. Over the years the song has taken on more meaning for me and I really understand why it was his favorite.
This song reminds me of my love, he is currently battling cancer, every day he's well is a blessing. It's scary to think of my life without him. I love him so much. Thankful for meaningful music.
I went through this almost 4 years ago. He was my husband for 43 years. My love for him continues. Now someone has come on to my path my heart has opened up again I am totally smitten. I never thought ever this would happen. He’s not opening his because of pain and doesn’t more for me. It hurts so much we are happy to see each other. I woke up hearing this song. Have not heard this song in a long time. Could it mean something?
No it doesn't my dear life gets HARDER & harder the older wiser we GET. Life's not fair!!! Personnaly I'd rather move on from this soulless place called the human race.
I was 13 in 1971 when this song came out. Remember hearing it a lot on 77 WABCam. Here in New York City. I think it was either Wolfman Jack or Cousin Brucie, Disc Jockeying.
When my other half died. I slept at his grave for months and listened to this song on repeat. Just seemed like the right song. 20 years later I'm 2 blocks from where you're buried. I don't have the heart to go no closer. And I miss him so much!! I love you forever until we meet again...
So so sad....thinking 'bout my boyfriend, died 2009 , 2 days before christmas. Our dog followed in 2016. I'm alone, without hope, without luck, without a little smile.... online on my own. This song....don't know - could only cry...
My husband and I bonded over this song and all the other stones songs when we were teenagers. It’s like we both can sing parts of this to each other. Horses have not dragged either of us away. That was 42 years ago. Tough marriage on me. But love remains. That’s all there is. Stones have great staying power also. ❤️✌️🤘
My grandma told me when I listen to this song think of her and play it at her funeral my grandma passed away on may 11th of this year how I watched her suffer a dull aching pain I was her caretaker in the end and now I’m here taking care of my siblings because we don’t have a mother and father my grandma played that role and now she’s gone and I feel all alone
Hugs and love to you sweetheart..in time it will be easier..I know that does not help..but just wanted you to know..you are not really totally alone..she is still here with you..love
I remember when I would come home my grandma would just be chilling playing Candy crush and we would hang out and talk about music together I miss you so much grams thank you for everything I'll see you in heaven one day ❤️
Childhood living is easy to do The things you wanted I bought them for you Graceless lady you know who I am You know I can't let you slide through my hands Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away I watched you suffer a dull aching pain Now you've decided to show me the same No sweeping exit or offstage lines Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind Wild horses couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie I have…
Charlie Watts' drumming at its best. The most underrated drummer of all time but the greatest drummer of all time. RIP Charlie. Thank you for your great contribution to music by keeping it real. And for keeping the band in line.
When almost my whole school skipped assembly and first class, we went out to the apple orchard. It was April Fool's Day and this was blasting on someone's radio. This song will always make me think of that day.
2021 and this song still melts my soul! To find that ONE, TRUE, LOVE after being hurt and let down so many times. Just to love and be loved before going to that Great Stairway in the Sky! What a Feeling!! ❤️♾😍
I began to cry as I was reading your comment & as your word's touched my soul I began to realize why this song was sent to me through messenger. My Love died on February 17 in my arms & my heart was hurting and for some reason I started looking through my messages & this song had been sent to me on the 19 the of February by a friend of mine that I haven't spoken to in a quite awhile. I asked him why ? He told me it was vision or something like that & he just couldn't explain it but he had too send it. I know without doubt my Joe had a part in that & comment confirmed it. Clarity is such an awesome Feeling or an experience that we've all have had. Even after Death wild horses couldn't drag my Joe away. Thank you
My heart goes out to you Bob theres no words to ease your sorrow and pain. You and your dad had great taste in music . My son and I, listen to music together, great music. I hate the thought of you being by yourself at this time. Cry if you need to . Take one day at a time . Be strong and reach out for help. My thoughts are with you..
A song that reminds me of some one who will always own my heart...he came into my life and turned my world upside down ...he was so amazing to me ...was...I miss you Jino ....you'll always be mine baby
This is a beautiful song and I find this to be one of the best of all time, and stuck to me emotionally so long. When I was 15, my friend died of heart troubles that he suffered with his entire life, then catching up to him at after 15 years of age. This was his favorite song, and he loved horses, even though that wasn’t what the song was about. Before he died, he said that he hopes that when I join him we both will ride the wild horses, dying minutes later. It hurts so bad to remember, but I love this song, makes me think of him more like a brother.
This song always made me think of my kids, now it's about my kids and grandsons ❤️💙❤️ Keith started writing this song about his infant son and it was changed into a relationship song. Most important relationships of my life are my relationship with my kids and grandsons.
The fucking Swampers. You've got quite a history in that little town of yours. Some kind of magic in the air, the river, etc. I hope to pay homage and visit someday. Have me a "meat and three" at some diner, an RC Cola and visit the two studios.
Music sparks those dusty memories laid in the back of your mind.. perhaps you will only think of them a few more times before life ends.. childhood memories long forgotten ignited with a few words n melody.. then you think about where you are now and everything in between .. never imagining back then that this is how it all ends
🎶l remember my university profesor. When he told me..l knkw about depression. I dont put a gun in my head .cause l have wife and kids. This🎶great song was playing.🎶 .....and he was living with pain.
Always reminds me of when I had to pack my suitcase and leave New York to find myself and end a bad relationship. Was crying listening to this over and over, thinking I would never move on. Ten years later and I know leaving on that bus was the right thing to do. I found myself and built a wonderful life. R, I hope wherever you are, you're at peace and finally got sober. 🙏
This song knocks your bones, chips the heart & cracks the soul. The Stones at their best....
the memory this brings
Brings me back to a time when we were free. In our mind. Able to trust & love. When did we loose it all ?
Yes Marcia

Lost my dad at 40. This song was his favorite. Breaks my heart everytime I hear it. Alcoholism is not a joke and should be taken very seriously. RIP dad 1980-2021 ☹🕊⚰
I'm so sorry for you and your Dad. I'm struggling with alcoholism right now. I'm sitting here crying with a gun In my hand just want to end it all. I go thru this all the time. I was once sober for 3 years, but I just lost it all 3 months ago and haven't stopped yet. But I love you and understand. Please live on for your father.
ethyl alcohol is the most abused drug.
How are you doing James?🙏💜
I lost my dad to drinking as well, 4 years ago, it was his birthday a few weeks ago. I'm proud to say I am currently 5 months sober.
I lost my father at 45 to a heart attack, but he lived his life like he would die tomorrow. He loved the rolling stones especially, wild horse. That was 15 years ago and I still listen to this song and think of him. Miss that crazy man everyday.
I remember I was 5 when i first heard this song , my pop was doing woodwork in his garage and we started dancing , with me standing on his feet .. I thank him for my old and classic taste in music . Love you poppa ❤
Thank you for sharing such a precious memory. 💕
Same :D
This was my brothers wedding song. Loved his rolling stones for sure. Lost my brother last year and was a 40plus year fan. I'll keep playing the stones for you Bro...til we meet again
My wedding song also
So they played a death song at a funeral. Idiots
This song takes me back to being 16 and just starting to get to know my dad as an adult and not just a parents. It’s been 4 years since my dad died and it’s still hard to catch my breath!!! Everything changed.....wish I could go back to those moments with him! I miss you every day dad..... I love you more than you’ll ever know!
I bet he was a great man, i lost my dad in 2019 when i was thirteen. and i will forever love him and miss him.
He knows..

It's sometimes hard to hear this song.... Growing up watching my dad in the kitchen, drunk playing his harmonica and singing this song, he lost the love of his life, my mom... My dad never remarried.

Love is a once in a lifetime experience
One of the most beautiful, heartfelt songs ever written…. Hands down.
Lyrically as meaningful as poetry
Full of emotions and sadness
Easily one of the greatest song ever written and may very well be the stones's magnum opus
Absolute Masterpiece
This is one of my favorite songs! I love the lyrics! Everyone has their own story. Yes, music is like therapy.
The best therapy opens the gateway to the soul.
Jesse..my brother. They called me this morning and told me you were dead. I have listened to every song I could think of from our childhood. I am hurting so bad I can hardly breathe. I would give anything to hear your voice just one more time.

Wild Horses is a masterclass for anyone who wants to study how to write a phenomenal ballad. Simply put, the songwriting is just tremendous.
Only because you heard ir for the first time. Us Stones fans sleep to this.🤣🤣
If this song doesn't stir your emotions I don't know what will! fabulous song from one of the greatest bands ever.
So much that I went and bought a guitar and started learning this song you’re right it wakes up your soul
I may be to young cuz im 14 and i might not understand the poetic side of this wonderful song but i know something
I will never stop listening to this song even when im gonna be an adult and understand anything
Found the beaty of the music there
I'm listening to them since I was 14 too. My dad loved them
The simple fact that you can acknowledge the complete internal emotional affect this has on people, especially your young self to make that kind of statement definitely proves you know a lot more than you're giving yourself credit for. My 36-year-old advice is to continue keeping an open mind.... don't forget this older, more sentimental, personal side of musical expression, always give new things a chance but never stray from whatever it is inside you compelling goodness and compassion! So many things will influence who you will become but if you stay true to what makes your soul feel good you will love you a lot more!
You are one your way 💚
Don't limit yourself.
Explore every genre of music, every era, every decade. You'll find shining gems in each and every category.
If you play an instrument, keep at it!! Even ten minutes per day, practice. There is a soul deep feeling about creating one's own music.
Interesting factoid: Evolutionary biologists cannot explain music, insofar as it having conferred any advantage to aiding our species' survival.
It is, simply a gift. I say a gift from God. 🎼❤️🙏🏻
I couldn't play this or any song around my father especially since my mom passed away because this was 1 of her favorite songs. My father was a very difficult man to get along with. When my mom passed away my father didn't want my help and didn't want me around (I was 50 when she died). I tried to help this stubburn man who i watched get very depressed and mentally deteriorate for almost 10 years. My mom passed in November 2009 and my father locked himself in his bedroom for 1 and a half days and i used a screw driver to open his bedroom door and found him dead from a heart attack in April 2019. My father was a very stubborn man and you could not play music around him and he would also complain to my mom about listening to any kind of music and my mom loved this song but she played it anyway, even though he was a hard man i do miss him but i miss my mom more and i'm gonna be 64 in the beginning of September..R.I.P. to my mom and my father 🙏 😞
❤❤❤
I needed to say this somewhere. I know this song was actually supposed to be about but it also inadvertently lines up with something totally off the wall different and serious as a heart attack with my life. My interpretation of this song helped me cope after my mom’s suicide. I am 20 years old and my whole life my mom had dealt with manic bipolar depression with suicidal tendencies as well as digestive issues so bad that she basically couldn’t hold down any food towards the end. Her bipolar issues made her lash out and be more self destructive and bridge burning than one could possibly imagine. When I was a baby my parents separated and my mom had my brother with some other guy and they had a custody battle and her mental issues caused her to lose. As the years passed she’d make friends, lash out one day, then lose them. We moved 16 times through it all so that made it worse for everyone. It was extremely hard getting by with her constantly yelling at me. It was hard to see the good things when they were all trapped in that cloud of bad. I knew how much she cared about my sister and I and she proved time and time again that she’d move mountains for us, but at that same time lay into us verbally on bad days when we didn’t know any better. It always stayed like that and her physical health kept getting worse. She went through a lot of relationships and finally it worked out perfectly with my stepdad. Around the time I was a junior in high school I was in a toxic relationship and the girl broke up with me at my birthday party. My mom really did everything in her power to help me feel better because I was in a dark place and she knew the feeling. The bad thing about when her manic bipolarity kicked in, she’d always hurl insults that cut to your core. We got into this fight and usually I’d just take it with a grain of salt and not talk back bc deescalation was the only way to deal with it but this fight was very bad. “it was no wonder why your girlfriend left... you’re not really depressed.... You’re the source of my depression”. I knew she didn’t mean any of it but it’s hard to understand how a mental disorder makes you say those things. She was only feeling worse and worse. Luckily I found a new girlfriend in an unlikely place and we have stuck together ever since, but my mom’s disorders were getting worse and worse and that led to the divorce proceedings with my stepdad. My mom and I had a falling out last summer and she literally showed up to my work and made an entire scene. I moved out and stayed at my grandparents for a bit. She eventually realized how heavy handed her actions were. She apologized and begged me to come back. I told her I accepted and would visit but I couldn’t come back because it was a really bad environment. Then she grew really attached to my dog who was still staying with her. I guess she saw me in him. Unfortunately a perfect shitstorm hit and he got cancer really bad and they ended up having to put him down. I didn’t even get to be there because I was out of town, but she was so broken from that. She begged me again to come back and I have to tell you that was the most difficult decision I ever made in my life. I said no but I’d still visit. Every visit after that she wouldn’t really talk to me and she was adamant that I hated her when really after everything we’d been through I loved her and I was only doing what was best. As the divorce went along she eventually found that she was going to lose everything from it. At this point her body couldn’t even digest food like her body was giving up as fast as her spirit. I was in my college class when I got the call from my sister telling me my mom told her goodbye. I raced to the house but it was too late. I won’t go into details but it took so much out of everyone. She didn’t even talk to me in the last 2 weeks and didn’t even say goodbye or that she loved me. I knew she meant it but maybe she couldn’t bring herself to talk to me. I know in my heart how much she loved me. We knew she was going to leave us but there was no stopping it. When I sit here at night and think about all the good with the bad and the fact that I can’t escape the thoughts of the last days and the funeral I turn to this song. The Rolling Stones have no idea how much this song envelopes the whole dynamic I had with her.
I sing this from her perspective: She always made sure I got the things I needed and I had a good Christmas. She was there with me through the hard times, even though she fought with me she didn’t mean it. She depended on me more than I knew at the time. Her mental demons couldn’t drag her away from the fact that she would always be with me.
“I watched you suffer
A dull aching pain
Now you've decided
To show me the same“
That was my decision to not return home. I still regret it but looking back I still don’t know what I would have done to stop it if I knew, because it was still going to happen.
“I know I've dreamed you
A sin and a lie
I have my freedom
But I don't have much time”
In her efforts to get me back, she tried to smear my name with my grandparents to get them to kick me out so I’d have to return, but they still knew better. It was childish but it was another one of those bipolar decisions out of desperation. She knew she didn’t have much time left with me because she knew she was getting worse, so she wanted what time she could get out of me. I regret not visiting more, but I didn’t know it would happen that soon while there was distance between us.
“Faith has been broken
Tears must be cried
Let's do some living
After we die”
Faith broken in that she took her own life even though she had formed a deeper connection with god towards the end. It left me feeling empty but it had been a long time coming and there is bittersweetness in that she is no longer suffering. Do some living after we die makes me pray that I see her again in the afterlife and I can finally speak to her when the abundant grace of our maker has restored her with a new body and cleared the demons that tormented her mind. I love her and I miss her and this song puts everything into words better than I ever could.
I'm so sorry
My mother has done a lot of the same. I let it ruin my life and my ex boyfriends life 17 years ago. I'm happy to know you didnt let it ruin your life.
❤️❤️
Glad you were able to tell your story. Wishing you the best.💕
You are a very wise young man with a very old soul. Your insight will get you through this game called life.
It's too bad my son could not see through my pain and how much I loved him.
His head was filled with God awful lies about me and I was out numbered and defenseless.
I am 61 and he is 31 the last time he spoke to me was very hurtful and I guess it made it easier for me to let him go. I could not fix what I did not break. That was over 10 years ago.....if he only knew the truth.
❤️🙏😢love you.
This is the first song I ever hear from Rolling Stones. Wow just wow. Guitars played beautifully!
my father passed away last august in 2019, this was the song that was played at the funeral for this was the very first song they danced to, I come back to listen to it and just think of all the good memories we had, and even though I can't find a true reason for why him, I just have to trust God's plan. We loved each other so much and I would do everything with him, and he told me that I was his favorite. I can"t seem to find purpose now but have to live life the best I can but am still so happy that he was my father for 13 years, even if that was short, He brought me so much joy and was so proud of me, but i wish i could hug him just one more time. I love hotwheels and he would always buy me a couple any time we went out and i put my favorite one into his coffin. I just pray for any one who has or is going through this and just know I love you.
❤❤❤
Played this for you at your service Sis, but you already know that. It's been almost 4 years and the tears haven't stopped.
I played this at my dad's service as well...6 months today....God it hurts.
God bless you both. We will see our loved ones again someday. They see us still, they smile for us. We should all smile for the ones who've went before us. I hope this message finds you both in good spirits.
My little sister her name is Amber and she passed away.. 💔😭.
See your name is amber as well and your sister died.
😩
When you hear Keith Richards sing and play this song on acoustic guitar....you cannot prevent tears coming to your eyes. Damn.
"Let do some living after we die."
The Rolling Stones 💎
So breathtaking
Aaron Drees my dads dying of cancer and my sister has been requested to sing this song at his funeral 😭😭😭
@@robinramos5402 I'm so sorry to hear that about your father. I will pray for u and ur family. What a beautiful song choice though.....when leaving this world and entering the pearly gates of Heaven.
What did he mean by that "lets do some living after we die"?
Reminds me of my Grandparents ♥️
The greatest song I've ever heard..
This was the best era. The 70s. Although I love the music from the 90s which I grew up in but my dad showed me what real music was. This was my dad's favorite stone's song. I miss you dad! Rest in peace! Maybe I'll be lucky enough to see you on the other side someday.
This song reminds me of my great grandmother who passed away, she passed away at 81 and she was a loving funny lady she was always so happy and she always showed up to every grand and funeral, and it was my turn to show up to hers. It was very heart breaking knowing i cant see her no more. She’ll always live in our hearts. 6/11/2024
This song makes me cry everytime. It just means so much to me.
❤❤
Every time I listen to this song I'm about to cry. It reminds me of my dad. I love you dad 💙
Mmmmmmm, what a brutally beautiful song. (my personal favourite by the Stones me thinks) Just Fabulous.
And Angie
This song is a hauntingly beautiful ballad one of their best. We are here now where wild horses couldn't drag us away. Thanks for this song Stones. But I also love it by Gram Parsons.
"I watched you suffer
A dull aching pain
Now you decided
To show me the same..."
So much of our humanity and inhumanity in those two sentences.
Best comment EVER!!!!!
Indeed!
My favorite lines of the song
New genaration here. Still the same feelings. One of the finest songs ive heard
Glad to hear! They will live forever.
Antonio , salute from Cali west coast baby don't tread on me Nor Cal roam free lands ! Wild horses !
Welcome!
@@Jim19833Welcome ? did you serve ? I did !
Agreed, also new generation!
She died of a stroke and watching her eyes and fear on her face was enough to kill me inside. I was completely helpless and than she let go and was gone forever. I miss my mom everyday.
🫂
🤗🤗 she is far from fear, pain, and loss. And she feels your love through time and dimension. ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻
Energy is neither created nor destroyed. I believe this applies to human consciousness, aka, our souls. I don't "know" any more than anyone else what happens when our bodies die, but, I have a feeling it's going to feel familiar, and comfortable, and like, oh yeah... I remember being here many times. Have you ever been having an intense dream, but when you wake up, you can't recall what that dream you were in mere seconds ago was about?? I dunno, maybe that's what death feels like.
All that having been said, I'm so sorry for your loss. May her memory be as a blessing. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Won tickets to the Stones in the 70's on choosing this song on a radio program. Huge great memories ❤
My mother loves the rolling stones. I think about her every time im listening to this song and miss her when ever i do. Im not sure exactly what the stones wrote this song about but i connect it strongly with the decision to get sober as an addict. You always tell yourself youre going to break free of your addiction some day but you keep putting it off until getting clean turns into a distant dream and you hope some day it will happen. The line "I have my freedom but I dont have much time" also makes me think about how the ectasy you feel from drugs only lasts a short time and it always catches up with you. It also makes me cry because it makes me think about my youth and how im wasting my time stuck in this rut. When youre young you feel you have all the freedom to do what you please but life is short and none of us have as much time as we think we have. -Andi
Not sure what you're on but, if I was able to get myself off of heroin and methadone, you can get off of whatever you're on. What fucks us up the most, is the mental shit. That much I do know. But keep this in mind, the longer you stay on them damn drugs, the longer it's going to take for you to get back to actually really feeling and thinking normal. I remember someone telling me that and sure enough, the years I spent on drugs was the same amount of years it took before I actually felt like a normal person. It wasn't a bad thing, cuz I was already feeling normal but I was just proud of myself not just for staying sober but for the fact that I almost forgot I did that shit. Just know the mental thing is a real struggle, so remember that. You're gonna have that anxiety and depression for possibly about a year longer. But just stay strong, think positive and if you believe in God pray to God to give you guidance and strength to beat It. If I could give my life story right now, I should have been dead, no bullshit. So don't EVER, EVER doubt yourself cuz I used to say the exact same thing you did. As a matter of fact, I thought I couldn't live without the bullshit. I couldn't handle my brain sober. Yet watching some RUclips videos on people getting off this shit and what they describe the emotions and feelings they go through. Cuz that's the thing that always gets us, it's the mental shit that comes along as our body's natural chemistry is adjusting back to normal. So hang in there stay strong because, you got this.💪
The only way to give up an addiction is to have a reality check.
Realize what you are doing to your mind and body internally .
Plan a day soon to make changes coz further down the line you will add 20 or more years onto life..
Ask yourself do you want to inflict this torment on yourself. It's hard before it gets any easier.
. Get support.
When you've gone through battles you have the heart and strength of a Warrior.
I agree w u 100%
It is so hard to get off drugs. I keep telling myself the same thing I'll do it tomorrow or tomorrow it was always tomorrow just go and do it it wont be easy it's hard but just one day at a time. I realize now that this post is 8 months old but I hope that u r doing good and off the drugs and moving forward. Much love and prayers 🙏🙏♥️♥️
3 simple words that will give you anything you want....
" Just do it" fuck your excuses.
My mom passed away a while ago but this song brings all those lovely memories back I had with her ,, miss u mom
Do read comments. Too many people expressing their deepest emotions. It is
the proof for a great song: more than making you feeling good.
very true, Joe somebody.
Beautiful comment
You can win at money or football or life in general. But when you've truly loved and lost. It's the meaning of life. Truly. Incredibly humbling and depressing and lord shall I go further... thank you holly gunnoe. Thank you for the heart break. I needed it , I needed the wake up call. And I'm both sorry and grateful for EVERYTHING. miss you forevermore. ❤🤯💍 to be continued....
Alan Worstell, I agree. Having your heart broken, especially from death, does make you more grateful.
No I would rather not have had true love. The pain is too much
For my brother who has gone to heaven. I love you so much and im so glad you’re not suffering anymore ... but man this hole in my heart sure is a deep aching pain... I miss you so much. R.I.P John feb, 17, 2021
I wish I heard this song when I was 9. Music 🎶 always helped me cope. Miss you dad R.I.P. I think about you often. You would be so proud of me. I have 4 beautiful babies and I am married to a man who loves me for me.
< 3
Im 65 , Love so so many songs.... So many genre,s of music... This is in my top 5
My big brother is on his way out! I am playing his favorite song for him.. R.I.P bubba
Lost my Dad to Cancer....A strong manly person...
This song is ours....
Amen
May your sweet Dad rest in peace...❤
I used to take care of a guy in the early stages of multiple sclerosis. He was in a band and they played this song all the time. I loved hearing them play as I worked in his house. Over the years the song has taken on more meaning for me and I really understand why it was his favorite.
This song reminds me of my love, he is currently battling cancer, every day he's well is a blessing. It's scary to think of my life without him. I love him so much. Thankful for meaningful music.
I went through this almost 4 years ago. He was my husband for 43 years. My love for him continues. Now someone has come on to my path my heart has opened up again I am totally smitten. I never thought ever this would happen. He’s not opening his because of pain and doesn’t more for me. It hurts so much we are happy to see each other. I woke up hearing this song. Have not heard this song in a long time. Could it mean something?
A fabulous ballad for the history of favorite bands....Still got it on stage, couldn't drag me away.....Keep moving forward, Stones.....
I don't know what to say other than this is one of the greatest song ever recorded by the stones. In there 70s and and still doing it
My grandpa use to sing this to my grandma.
It gets easier. Everyday it gets a little easier, but you have to do it every day. That's the hard part. But it still gets easier.
The Worlds Greatest Rock n Roll Band, hands down.
I will miss you bojack
No it doesn't my dear life gets HARDER & harder the older wiser we GET. Life's not fair!!! Personnaly I'd rather move on from this soulless place called the human race.
Love this! Can I borrow it!
jenny greer the quote is from bojack
I was 13 in 1971 when this song came out. Remember hearing it a lot on 77 WABCam. Here in New York City. I think it was either Wolfman Jack or Cousin Brucie, Disc Jockeying.

We know you loved the stones
Kris Karpen randomly scrolling through the comment on 1/20. It’s been a year and I just wanted to make sure You’re doing alright.
So sorry for your loss, hope it gets better for you.
I never ever get bored listening to this classic as ageless as the "Rolling Stones".
When my other half died. I slept at his grave for months and listened to this song on repeat. Just seemed like the right song. 20 years later I'm 2 blocks from where you're buried. I don't have the heart to go no closer. And I miss him so much!! I love you forever until we meet again...
I am with you my husband died 13 years ago and I……. I am thankful we were married for 20 years but…😭😢
Makes me cry
My heart aches for you
For mommy
I hear you😢
Amazing song from 1971
I'm playing it on my acoustic every day and diffenitly I can't leave it
ME TOO.......
So so sad....thinking 'bout my boyfriend, died 2009 , 2 days before christmas. Our dog followed in 2016. I'm alone, without hope, without luck, without a little smile.... online on my own. This song....don't know - could only cry...
My husband and I bonded over this song and all the other stones songs when we were teenagers. It’s like we both can sing parts of this to each other. Horses have not dragged either of us away. That was 42 years ago. Tough marriage on me. But love remains. That’s all there is. Stones have great staying power also. ❤️✌️🤘
How have you stayed together all those years? Interested in hearing more?~!
Let's do some living after we die....MISS YOU, JOE...Your wife still, Pam
❤
I love this. Bless y'all.
JOE MOSCHELLA. He knows
@@raymondmanderville505 Thanks and bless you!
he's definitely waiting for you up there, take your time down here 😊✨
My grandma told me when I listen to this song think of her and play it at her funeral my grandma passed away on may 11th of this year how I watched her suffer a dull aching pain I was her caretaker in the end and now I’m here taking care of my siblings because we don’t have a mother and father my grandma played that role and now she’s gone and I feel all alone
Sorry for your pain
Hang in there. Its okay to feel alone sometimes or sad. Keep going :)
So sorry Nicole, I know the pain you feel, I have it too!
May He you the needed patience.
Hugs and love to you sweetheart..in time it will be easier..I know that does not help..but just wanted you to know..you are not really totally alone..she is still here with you..love
I remember when I would come home my grandma would just be chilling playing Candy crush and we would hang out and talk about music together I miss you so much grams thank you for everything I'll see you in heaven one day ❤️
♥️
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you've decided to show me the same
No sweeping exit or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
I know I've dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have…
Listened to this song my whole life, Listening to it while reading the lyrics and having Relationship problems...Wow!!
Im 13 and i love this music
Good! Nice to see young people enjoy some real music :)
You are wise, I recommend my Vice City opinions and observations video for more real music.
Keep listening young man!
You’re going the right direction with music bud
Keith’s backing vocal is otherworldly. Majestic song.
God Sam.. my sweet sister.. I miss you.. six years and I'm still just as lost as the day God took you in his heavenly arms.. say hi to oma for me..
LOST MY SISTER AUGUST 2020. MISS HER SO MUCH. WE STAYED IN TROUBLE LOL SHE WAS 68
Charlie Watts' drumming at its best. The most underrated drummer of all time but the greatest drummer of all time. RIP Charlie. Thank you for your great contribution to music by keeping it real. And for keeping the band in line.
Agreed! One of the finest songs EVER!
Such a sad song but yet amazing.
It is indeed. Bojack Horseman even used this song in one of their episodes.
P.S. Love your profile picture!
I love this song my mom and aunt got to see the rolling Stones in philadelphia pa in 1981 I was 6 at the time.
New favourite song. So glad I heard this by chance on the radio today.
When almost my whole school skipped assembly and first class, we went out to the apple orchard. It was April Fool's Day and this was blasting on someone's radio. This song will always make me think of that day.
I love this song so much.. ♡
Rest In Peace:
Momma (2009)
Takashi (2019)
Patsy (2020)
Nanny (2011)
And others ♡
2021 and this song still melts my soul! To find that ONE, TRUE, LOVE after being hurt and let down so many times. Just to love and be loved before going to that Great Stairway in the Sky! What a Feeling!! ❤️♾😍
I began to cry as I was reading your comment & as your word's touched my soul I began to realize why this song was sent to me through messenger. My Love died on February 17 in my arms & my heart was hurting and for some reason I started looking through my messages & this song had been sent to me on the 19 the of February by a friend of mine that I haven't spoken to in a quite awhile. I asked him why ? He told me it was vision or something like that & he just couldn't explain it but he had too send it. I know without doubt my Joe had a part in that & comment confirmed it. Clarity is such an awesome Feeling or an experience that we've all have had. Even after Death wild horses couldn't drag my Joe away. Thank you
This is one of the most beautiful songs written so much pain and Emotion it's Lyrical poetry. I absolutely l❤ve this song I feel every single word . ❤
Stones have really deep lyrics. They touch my soul.❤
Miss you mom! NYE will never be the same. 😭😭😭😭😭
One of their best! Timeless, thanks Ray!
Just lost my soul mate ..this song kills me...we will ride those horses 🐎 together one day
This was me and my dads song...we’d listen to it together when we left alone. And now I am alone .RIP dad
My heart goes out to you Bob theres no words to ease your sorrow and pain. You and your dad had great taste in music . My son and I, listen to music together, great music. I hate the thought of you being by yourself at this time. Cry if you need to . Take one day at a time . Be strong and reach out for help. My thoughts are with you..
@@user-lp3tw9mp3b As Well as Mine are Also!
My heart goes out to you
THIS SONG BREAKS MY HEART ALWAYS
This song will always be amazing
A song that reminds me of some one who will always own my heart...he came into my life and turned my world upside down ...he was so amazing to me ...was...I miss you Jino ....you'll always be mine baby
Sorry for your loss, stay strong ✌
Great song of the early '70's. Brings me back to the start of my teenage years. I miss those days and the music of the times.
Forever The Rolling Stones 👀🎤🎧🎼❤️
Rolling Stones tour Philadelphia, Pa. July 23rd 2019!!!♥️✌♥️✌♥️✌♥️✌♥️ I know it's only Rock and Roll.....but,I like it!
For you Brad, you taught me the deep ness and feeling of music see you soon
This is a beautiful song and I find this to be one of the best of all time, and stuck to me emotionally so long. When I was 15, my friend died of heart troubles that he suffered with his entire life, then catching up to him at after 15 years of age. This was his favorite song, and he loved horses, even though that wasn’t what the song was about. Before he died, he said that he hopes that when I join him we both will ride the wild horses, dying minutes later. It hurts so bad to remember, but I love this song, makes me think of him more like a brother.
This song rips through you...
Timeless classic rock.
This song always made me think of my kids, now it's about my kids and grandsons ❤️💙❤️ Keith started writing this song about his infant son and it was changed into a relationship song. Most important relationships of my life are my relationship with my kids and grandsons.
rolling stones we are in this life ! You find a resemblance in any lyrics songs of this great band ..’
I haven't heard this in ages. You had to make me cry on Christmas day...😢
Chin up Cat ❤️
Michael I know you're in the best place there is. I love you forever my beautiful tender sweet man!!
Poetry put to music. Simply sublime
Knowing that this song was recorded in my hometown makes it fit just that much more!! Nothing like real music that comes from Muscle Shoals Alabama
The fucking Swampers. You've got quite a history in that little town of yours. Some kind of magic in the air, the river, etc. I hope to pay homage and visit someday. Have me a "meat and three" at some diner, an RC Cola and visit the two studios.
I'll never stop loving you, PUDDIN
...timeless classic.
Music sparks those dusty memories laid in the back of your mind.. perhaps you will only think of them a few more times before life ends.. childhood memories long forgotten ignited with a few words n melody.. then you think about where you are now and everything in between .. never imagining back then that this is how it all ends
Thanks for your sacrifice and patience with me and my short comings
🎶l remember my university profesor.
When he told me..l knkw about depression. I dont put a gun in my head .cause l have wife and kids. This🎶great song was playing.🎶
.....and he was living with pain.
thank you for publishing this with lyrics...wonderful song!
Always reminds me of when I had to pack my suitcase and leave New York to find myself and end a bad relationship. Was crying listening to this over and over, thinking I would never move on. Ten years later and I know leaving on that bus was the right thing to do. I found myself and built a wonderful life. R, I hope wherever you are, you're at peace and finally got sober. 🙏
