    Nicky Hopkin’s piano mastery makes this song superb - absolutely one of my all time favourite ballads. The way the piano weaves around the vocals and guitars is so beautiful.

      Absolutely. The acoustic guitar usually gets all the praise, and it is wonderfully done, but the piano is the heart of the song. I play piano so I could be biased. lol Actually now that she expressed how beautiful it is, while also being sad, it makes perfect sense. The guitar is sort of the sadness, reminiscing, the letting go. The piano is the love that is still there, the hope he is trying to give both of them, and the care he still has for her. A perfect match. I typically find most ballads sort of cheesy, but this one is so perfectly constructed and performed. And out of the dozens of fantastic Rolling Stones songs, this one always ends up at the top of my list.

      I’m in a cover band and we have played this a few times. I found sheet music that replicates what Nicky Hopkins plays & our pianist plays it to the guitar & vocals. It’s magic. Without the piano it’s ok but without the wow factor. Thank you for the reply.

      Nicky was great, he really could nail down a groove and feel for so many artists recordings but my favorite Nicky is live with the Jerry Garcia Band, Elvis’s drummer Ron Tutt and the Deads lead guitarist in a very casual bar band type of gigs. Jerry let Nicky stretch out all he wanted to and he fit so well with Jerry’s guitar. Lots live recordings, very lounge, folky jazzy blues rock jams. Nicky unfortunately was alcoholic and eventually Jerry had to let him go. The bottle took him, very sad.

    The Stones never tried to make any big concept album, never tried to reinvent themselves, or get caught up in costumes and such.
    They only ever tried to do one thing: Write one more good song.
    And they did that a lot, for a long time.
    They also never had dramatic announcements, played endless goodbye tours, or tried to make their success about personalities. They just showed up and always gave the audience what they were there for.

    The Rolling Stones are arguably the most diverse band in Rock N Roll history playing blues, folk, country, psychedelia, disco, funk, reggae, punk, gospel, and ballads, all while defining what rock n roll is.

    As much as I enjoyed experiencing these three Rolling Stones song with you these past few days, I cannot help but consider the immense library of amazing and important songs this band has recorded over so many years. Over so many decades, really.
    For a group that rarely if ever recorded purely instrumental tunes, and always had the same singer as a prominent part of pretty much everything they ever recorded, they somehow kept coming up with new songs that sounded new, that sounded fresh, and somehow even sounded different.
    They have a huge number of great songs, including many that were not necessarily singles but ones that fans all know from their albums.
    And they were album band, and yet also one that had huge singles year after year, and got a huge amount of radio play and other types of media attention.
    Albums like Aftermath and Between the Buttons are just packed with great songs that are somehow all different.
    So many huge songs that they made their first best hits album all the way back in 1966, and it really was a whole album of great songs. So was their second such compilation, in 1969.
    It really cannot be overstated how many great songs this band recorded in the 1960s, 1970s, and well into the 1980s.
    The first time I heard "Start Me Up", I loved the song from the first three notes, and was amazed to hear Mick's voice a few seconds later. All I could think was, wow, how can they just keep doing it over and over again, making new and great songs so many times over so many years?

    As a child, I'd hear this song and, though not understanding the lyrics, feel like I wanted to cry. I've always had a kind of fear of this song, and somewhat avoided it. I just knew, if I ever learned all the lyrics, it was going to hurt. I'm 55 now, and this is the first time I really listened to the song. I was right all along. For me, it's haunting beauty is a little too much.

    When my first real boyfriend and I tried to ride out his year in jail (late 70s Marijuana charges put him in jail) he'd write me and tell me everytime he heard Angie and You Wear It Well by the Faces he thought of me more than usual. When he got out, we lived this song, both of us crying because we had to let each other go for my own good.
    We were so young, barely 20 when we said goodbye but we remained close until the day he died when he was 40.
    Living the rock and roll lifestyle can be hard. When I wrote a song about him after he was gone called Ain't It Funny How It Turned Out one of the lines was "Angie on the radio would always make you cry"... when I listen to the cd that has that song on it, it almost brings me to tears.
    When I listen to Angie, it always brings me to tears.

    I am so glad that your Stones Weekend ended on a more positive experience for you, as you said you found a gem in Angie. I always love your descriptive language when you are really enjoying a song. Hopefully some of their more rock oriented songs will grow with you over time, including the two you have now heard, along with the many other great songs that you have yet to hear (they also have some bluesy songs). Angie was always played for one of the slow dances at my high school dances in the 70s. Whenever I hear an A minor chord played in isolation on an acoustic guitar, Angie almost always comes to mind. Particularly when the A root is arpeggiated first. Good to see that Angie made your playlist.

    Although I broke up with a girl who I deeply loved once, I don't think about that relationship when I hear this song, I don't relate to it personally. Maybe from now on I will.
    There was a time, 40-50 years ago when this song was not a classic from an earlier era, but when it was current and played on the radio and other media very frequently and this song stops you in your tracks. If it comes on while you're driving you turn the volume up, if the radio is on while you're working, as background noise, you change your focus and listen for a few minutes. Mick Jagger is perfectly on point in his delivery and the accompanying music couldn't be better, plus it is such an easy listening melody.
    The song is included in a few different Stones albums, when listening to the entire album I like the song on "Made in the Shade", I just like the particular mix of songs on this album.
    When I was barely 20, a kitchen worker, barely graduated from Culinary academy, I decided to immigrate.to America (from Europe). I left behind a girl who I met when she was 4 years old and I was 6. She was the sister of one of my best friends and, on and off, my girlfriend for all these years. I was over at their home so often that the whole family was practically my second family. She did not want to leave Europe or was scared to at age 19 (I think both). And while I've had a rich and rewarding life here in The US and still do and I have beautiful children, a situation that I wouldn't trade for anything, sometimes I do wonder if I did the right thing. It's a painful thought in ways.

      @@cornstar1253 I have the unfortunate duty to inform you that in one of Amy's earlier videos (was it Jimi Hendrix?), she stated that she would not get to DSotM this, the 50th year anniversary. RATS!
      My uncle gave DSotM to me for my 8th grade graduation present in 1976 and it's been my ultimate favorite album (despite me being an ultimate Beatlemaniac and a Ledish Zeppeliny nut) since then.
      I was 13 then, hearing "and then one day you find, ten years have got behind you..." so imagine my HORROR that the lyric must needs be read as "40 years have got behind you..."

    You need to review David Bowie. What the Beatles were to the 60s Bowie was to the 70s. He was the most rock and roll artist of my generation - the most innovative, the most exploratory, themost ground breaking, the most influential. You need a David Bowie series.

    I'm am a guitarist and I can tell you that the way the 2nd chord is played in the intro is quite unique.The E7 chord. First an e bassnote (6th string open) then high notes on the 3 highest strings ( b, d and e) and then (unique!!) an Ab bassnote on the lowest string 4th position. I could never have thought to play an E7 chord in that way. Playing it the first time this way was an absolute sensation. And stayed special ever since. Good job Keith!

(and all other songs you choosee to present for us in your very own way) There are so many other great songs worth listen to analyse by the Rolling Stones. Such as Gimmie shelter and Ruby tusday Tthere are an cover made by Mellanie Safka of Ruby tusday Keith Richard gave to her. Two very different versions of the same song, woth listen or compare to. But i do hope you would listen to more of the stones. And give us your thoughts about them and there music. After all they besides are the most influencial band that formed the music we are listening today. Together with the s c unholy trinety from the 70´s, Black Sabbath Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple

    Hey Amy. Last time I said I don't like The Stones, but I love Angie. I guess because of some slow dances in my youth. There is a dimension never to forget in Rock, opposed to most Classical: it's a music meant to have people to dance on. I invite you to have a good slow dance moment on Angie with Vlad. Best regards

    One of the benefits of the Rolling Stone's longevity is that they have created such a large and varied body of work. I often tell people who say they don't like the Stones to listen to something from a different era of their back catalogue, chances are that eventually you'll come across a song you do like. I'm a huge fan of a song called 'Moonlight Mile' and yet it sounds nothing like most of their hit songs. There are many softer and more delicate songs in their back catalogue which don't get the airplay of their upbeat numbers but half the fun is discovering the songs you didn't expect.

    • @pjtok7
      @pjtok7 Рік тому

      Agree on Moonlight Mile, one of my favorite Stones songs. 2 great ballads on the Sticky Fingers album, "Wild Horses", which is well known and got a lot of radio airplay, and "Moonlight Mile", which only Stones fans seem to have heard and for some reason got no airplay. Though I was pleasantly surprised to hear it both open and close a "Sopranos" episode.

      You Got Me Rocking is a great song which deals with Aging and losing your footing in life. I have listened to it more times than I can count. It’s not only a fabulously handled topic but it’s a great hard driving song. Give it a listen. Mick Jagger takes Aging on in a very direct way in it and it was written long ago.
