    I've heard others saying that this song was simply about depression, as you two are saying. But it's far more - the reason for his depression is grief, because his wife or girlfriend has just died, and he's watching or imagining the funeral procession:
    "I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
    With flowers and my love both never to come back"
    "... I could not foresee this thing happening to you..."
    "I've seen people turn their heads and quickly look away
    Like a newborn baby, It just happens every day"
    I love this song, and hate it. I lost my beautiful wife to cancer five years ago, and every time I hear it I'm reminded of how it felt. But I still listen.

      The only thing I knew about the song is that it was the (original) theme song for the late 80s Vietnam war (although technically it was never categorized as a war here in the U.S.A., since it was never voted on as such by congress) show "Tour of Duty".
      Great show by the way. Unlike a lot of shows about Vietnam from the 70s and 80s, it didn't portray all of the Soldiers as hopeless scumbags, but showed them as true human beings, with the complexities that brings. It did show the negative aspects, but it also showed all of the positive aspects as well.

    When I hear the line a bit into the song about "I see a line of cars and they're all painted black" (funeral) and then it talks about flowers, then the song makes sense to me.

    This comes from a time, 1966, when groups like The Beatles, The Byrds The Beach Boys and others, not to mention Bob Dylan were getting bored of the conventional styles of music they were playing, and were experimenting with different types of instrumentation and styles of music. Hence the use of the sitar, which had already been used by The Beatles on Norwegian Wood in 1965. This was a very fruitful period of music, and psychedelia was just emerging. The type of drugs they were using, e.g. LSD can not be discounted.

For a great example of this, listen to the Monkees' Last Train to Clarksville.

I've seen them twice in concert with the last being in Phoenix a few years back but man, what a wealth of music they have given us. Thanks for sharing. Peace be with you both.

    Rolling Stones played R&B covers early in their career, but they started writing songs... then the Beatles inspired them to branch out and experiment... In the 70's, they put out some of their most iconic albums & hits... 'Brown sugar' ... "It's only rock n' roll"...

    Ok, I’m going to give you a strong possible answer to the music in Paint it Black which also hints at your comment “a possible other country”. If the years are close, this could be the reason. The Beatles and The Rolling Stones were often (for a short span of years) compared in popularity. George Harrison was on a kick one year where he visited Pakistan/ Bangladesh. He was untwined there for good, in that he spoke out for the needy people there. In process, he made an album The color of the album was orange. I can’t remember the name of that album, but the music was like you heard in this song “Paint it Black”. I bet if you did some research, you’ll find The Rolling Stones did this number as their input to go along with the Beatles. So, sort of in a small way, copying what the Beatles (albeit George Harrison) had done. Not all of that album sounds this way, so you’ll have to look for the sound therein. Like I said all just a possibility.

    This song was selected as the theme song for Tour of Duty which was a late eighties show about the Viet Nam War and though the song came out during the war it was written in 1966 at a time when the war was just beginning to elicit intense reactions and over time it started giving the same kind of vibe as other songs like Run Through the Jungle, We Gotta Get Out of This Place, Reflections of My Life and For What It's Worth. It was a time when intense songs were all adopted to fit the mood of the war, even though the original reasons for them may have been something else. And it fit Tour of Duty very well.
