This song is from their "Some Girls" album, which was released in 1978. The whole friggin' album is great! You need to add that one to your collection, for sure!
This album from 78 also had a song “Shattered” .That was the time of both Punk and Disco.I remember reading in a newspaper someone say that the stones came up with the greatest Disco song (Miss you) and the greatest Punk song (Shattered).A little generous but both definitely great songs.
When this was first released, the Stones faithful went ballistic that the band has gone disco. It took about 20 years to settle into their body of work. You don't survive 60+ years as a band without being influenced by the times. The original song was released on 12" single at 8 minutes long. The album version is an edited version.
Waiting on a friend and Emotional rescue! Also You can't always get what you want and She's so cold! Such great memories with these songs and of course Miss you!!!
Please consider Sympathy for the Devil and Emotional Rescue. Both are deeply funky. Miss You was such a controversial song when it came out but it was THUNDER in the underground dance clubs, with that nasty bass line.
Emotional Rescue is so unique. First time I heard it, I was walking on the street, and I turned towards a store that had the door open and the music was flowing out onto the sidewalk. I got pulled toward the door like a magnet.
They should do the Rolling Stones "Bitch". Great, upbeat song. Great horns like Jay and Amber like. Ignore the name, they just say "love is a bitch", not a person.
Yes!!! But watch the actual video that was made for Emotional Rescue! You guys there is a video of Miss You with the band from 1978!! Make sure y'all check UA-cam really good before just using the Audio vidoes please! Thanks!
I think this is around your tenth Stones reaction. What an iconic band. All their songs are fabulous and cover several different styles. One of their earlier ones was written for Marianne Faithfull, " As Tears Go By" which made it to Number 9. The Stones released this song and it made it to Number 6. It is worth a listen. Like The Beatles don't forget to check out their starting songs. Some real treasures there. Great reaction. Buckets of Maple Syrup love from Canada ❤️ ❤️ 🇨🇦🇨🇦
When this song first came out I heard it on the rock station and the DJ whispered "I think it's disco." That was considered a big No-No for the Rolling Stones back in those days. Fans went berserk over it. Rather silly looking back on it now. Good music is just good music, no matter what genre.
I have always loved the funk undertone of this song!! Those Bass guitar 🎸 runs are killer!! And the way Mick Jagger sings the lyrics is phenomenal!! The Saxophone 🎷and Charlie Watts 🥁🙏♥️ ... It's The Stones at their innovative best - IMO!! This song always gets my heart going and my blood pumping!! Another great reaction Amber and Jay!! 🙂 @RobSquadReactions
This is a shortened version of Miss You, edited for a compilation album called Forty Licks. They shortened a few songs on that so they can fit 40 songs on two CDs.
This is my all time favorite rolling stones song. I still remember as a teenager hearing it for the 1st time when I was in a local arcade all of us kids went to & I LOVED IT SO MUCH then & I still love it all these many years later! ❤️ 😍👄👅🪨🙏🎤🎶🎼🎹🥁🎸🎷
This whole album is an absolute killer, and if you want a REAL jolt, throw on track six, "Girl With The Faraway Eyes". Stones goin full-on Country, and doin it WELL! ✌😎
They even made disco-rock sound cool! "Emotional Rescue" was another great Stones disco-rock song! Also try "Beast of Burden" and "Shattered" from this same era! Awesome!
The Stones are iconic; I grew up on them. Here's a few requests: "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" (studio version), "Fool To Cry" live official video, "Time Waits For No One" (studio version). They're all great.
Wow! I was going through Marine Corps OCS when this song came out. The more extreme the experience, the more branded it is in your memory. AND everything connected to it. "Angie" is another BIG departure for the Stones, an acoustic ballad that is about the end of a love relationship.
excellent choice..the Stones are blues based but always lean into rock,disco, country, reggae and ballads..They, as Keith says, put the roll in Rock and Roll..
Angus and Malcolm Young of AC/DC occasional played with the Rolling Stones in 2003. These rare and memorable performances are very raw and fun to watch. Their version of "Rock Me Baby" is full of great solos and interactions between members of both bands. The Rolling Stones Live at Toronto Rocks With AC/DC - Rock Me Baby - 2003 (Remastered)
No matter what music was current, the Stones always brought their own song and sound to it. Miss You was in the time when disco music started. When punk came up they released "one hit to the body". Somehow they always adapted to their time without forgetting their blues roots. That's exactly what makes the Stones special ! Best regards @all from Hamburg (Germany) !
70s/80s Stones must-listens: "It's Only Rock and Roll" "Rip This Joint" "Dance Little Sister" "Rocks Off" "She's So Cold" "Hang Fire" "She Was Hot" "Mixed Emotions" "Between a Rock and a Hard Place'
Only the Stones could transition from the bad boys of rock to this genre. At the time I liked it and did not think it was full blown Disco because it had a story and a melody beside the constant beat. It also had Jagger in classic style singing with plenty of his own personality in the delivery. Pure Mick regardless of the beat.
Miss You was their "cross over" song into disco. It was considered innovative to do that. Many Stones fans were not happy about this song, but as a Stones fan I loved it! There is an extended 12" of it that was what they played in the clubs. They did another disco song that I love called "If I Was a Dancer (Dance, Part II)
Yes! So True - The Rolling Stones are The Greatest Rock n Roll Band of all time. Their allegiance is totally to The Blues. Keith Richard (his actual name is Richard not Richards) & Mick Jagger legendarily ran into each other on a train platform in London after not seeing each since childhood. They were in their late teens, early 20s. Both had Blues Albums under their arms (not thumbs?) Screaming Jay Hawkins, Muddy Waters, Little Richard (his actual name, not Richards.) And they knew it was Destiny.
Richards is Keith’s family name. Oldham convinced him to drop the s early on because it supposedly sounded more like a popstar’s name like that. He added back the s in the mid 70s.
@@ArmandoMPR Yeah? That's really interesting. Thanks! The story I always heard was his name was Richard but everybody kept adding the "s' so he just kept it.
save the planet for keith richards his autobiography is really really good & incredible ~ i listen to an audiobook of it with richards reading it as well johnny depp
This is actually my favorite Stones song! So funky and cool! Please consider "Gimme Shelter" and "Waiting on a Friend" also Bob Dylan "Positively 4th Street" & Lou Reed "Walk On The Wild Side" & "I Love You, Suzanne" 😎 PS. I love a good thunder storm too! 🌩️ PPS. Dr. Dre Remix of Miss You is 🔥 Keep smiling! 🎶💜🎶
Sugar Blue on harmonica on this. Stones have always been versatile: blues, soul, punk, country, funk, glam, english folk (if that's the right term), psychedelia, reggae, and here basically disco as much as anything else. The 12 inch dance single was clearly the best version of this song, followed pretty closely by the album version. The single is quite chopped up. still features the little falsetto snippet nod at the end to Barry Gibb/BeeGees, as this came out in 1978. What else? Billy Preston was annoyed at first that he did not get a writing a credit, suggesting Jagger took his idea without acknowledgement. (Preston and Jagger continued to get on fine and work together afterward though). Bill Wyman reportedly took considerable time to get the bass line just right, which does help make the song. John Lennon indicated he thought Jagger unconsciously took the song from his own unreleased track Lennon had played for him, titled "Bless You". Well, who knows really? The Stones have always benefited from the right people contributing to their songs. Theoretically, I guess we could have a Jagger/Richards/Wyman/Preston/Lennon credit. :) Also, the Stones here were the first legacy "rock" group to jump into disco. It was a huge hit on the charts, with considerable staying power in 1978. Rod Stewart ("Do you think I'm sexy") and The Kinks ("Superman") quicky followed suit.
Lets not forget that "Disco" as it is termed now, was 100% Black American music form. Just like Rock and Roll, and most other Western pop music. Why should The Stones be copying other British groups. They always copied Black American music, and they are again here.
I'm pretty sure you've already reacted to You Can't Always Get What You Want, but you REALLY need to listen to the studio recorded version (remastered 2019 ) in order to fully appreciate this masterpiece! The the choir in the beginning speaks to quality of this recording.
This was the Stones soaking in New York City of the 70's-punk, rock, and disco. And telling the world, "Stand back and listen to this. Yeah, we did that!"
This is one my three favorite Stones songs - which is really saying something because I'm a long time huge Stones fan. The other two favorites are Gimme Shelter which I'm pretty sure you've reacted to and the other one is "Time Waits For No One" which I hope you'll get to. This song has a great bass line that drives the song throughout to go along with the harmonica and their usual dual guitar melody/rhythm. Yes, the Stones have the iconic voice of Jagger - but they are one of the best bands ever for constructing a song with multiple things that mesh together - their musicianship is as good or better than any other band past or present.
@@jacqueline4514 Oh that's right. I'm probably leaving some stuff out. I think the Stones probably broke that ground first with "Miss You." Van Halen used to do KC and the Sunshine Band tunes live in their club days and there's a fairly dancy feel and groove in a lot of their rock tunes.
Don’t forget “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy” by Rod Stewart , “(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman” by The Kinks, “Goodnight Tonight” by Wings, and “Shakedown Street” by Grateful Dead
@@Itelkner I had no idea Van Halen did KC songs; that’s great! I wasn’t saying you are wrong by any means; please don’t think that; was just adding more to a fun list 😂
@@joemc1960 Absolutely!!! Do Ya Think I’m Sexy is the most Disco one of them all; one of the first records I bought with my own money. Disco still lives in my home and car ❤️
When I was a kid, I loved pop and dance music, so I really didn’t like the Stones. But, the album with this song came around when I was a moody 15 yo. I could see the value in this. Dancy, viby. I could sing along with it, too. Really appreciate them now, 40 years later.
I was a senior in high school, 64-65, when the Beatles were the rage. Then I heard "Satisfaction" and I forgot about the Beatles. The Stones are awesome 💥💥💥
Bill Wyman's bass on this track is just soooooo funky. Most of the time, when you think of the Rolling Stones, you think of Keith Richard's riffs, but this song is all about the bass.
Some Girls is a fantastic album. So many varied hits through their careers. That variety and constant evolution is what gives the Stones such tremendous appeal over multiple generations!! Keep digging into the Stones. Still gotta check out "Little T&A", Mick didn't sing everything done my the stones. Occasionally Keith Richards would drop a banger with a totally different vocal vibe. Give a reaction soon!!!
Hell Yeah a banger!! I always considered this song the Stone’s DISCO 🪩 song! ❤️. If you want to hear the COOLEST opening of ANY song, (my opinion), is the Stones’ MONKEY MAN 🔥🔥😳
Love this song for sure. But Amber “She’s like a Rainbow “ Not to many people will know it or request it but it very worth the listen even if ya just listen on your own, maybe type me when ya see me and let me know how ya liked it…. I will pay as soon as I can get the extra $s. Lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌸
A perfect disco era beat, led by the one-and-only Charlie Watts on his Gretsch drum kit, sadly passed away some months ago. And of course, there ara some blues licks in guitars and harmonic job, and by the way, there is a extended version of this tune, with a killer saxo solo in the bridge of the song. Very cool, guys, watching you reacting to a this fantastic classic.
I absolutely loved this when it was released.... I was 18 and had it taped, on cassette for the whole 2 sides!..... just me driving about in my little tiny turquoise mini clubman estate..... memories❤
They will DEFINITELY be touring their new album. Every time they have ever toured, people ask could This Be The Last Time (referring to one of their songs). But this tour could really be it! GO SEE THEM!!!
One of the Stones' best songs from one of their best albums. Try "Shattered" from the same album, but do NOT do the track 'Some Girls.' Trust me on that one. 😀 As for the blues, it was at the heart of the music of The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and so many more bands from that era. They grew up on blues music.
I can still hear this coming from the windows of multiple apartments in 1978 on KRQE while I was at the pool with all my friends. A 10 year old me loving every minute of it.
This is an example of some of the disco-influenced songs that a number of rock groups put out in the late seventies to conform to the times, this song from 1978, Kiss's "I Was Made for Loving You" from 1979, Rod Stewart's "Do You Think I'm Sexy?" from 1978, Steely Dan's "Peg" and "Josie" from 1977, Blondie's "Heart of Glass" from 1978, etc.
Love this song!! Danced to this song every weekend in my young days! Die hards called it Disco. Not really but dang it has a great bass line!! Bill Wyman 💜
The Rolling Stones are one of the best bands, having produced music across so much time ... something like 30 very productive years. They outlasted the Beatles, the Who, Led Zep, the Doors ... BTW, have you guys listened to any of Robert Plant's solo work after Led Zeppelin? He has a few good tunes. "Big Log" is smooth vibe that I think you'll enjoy. Jimmy Page joins him on guitar for that one.
Ironically in my mid teens I was a Beatles fan but in my 20’s and way beyond learned I actually must preferred the Stones and lost all interest in the Beatles. This is a great Stone’s song. This music aged very well.
As a Puerto Rican I fully support this song!
cool name too!
My mom's cousin's friend is a Puerto Rican and I totally support this song. LOL
Same 😂
Ha ha
LMAO!!
This is my favorite Stones song!
This song is from their "Some Girls" album, which was released in 1978. The whole friggin' album is great! You need to add that one to your collection, for sure!
If for no other reason, to play with the album cover! That was my favorite thing to do as a kid, I got yelled at a lot, lol
@@mjw1976 😆
Gotta agree! My neighbors heard that album nightly during that year!
Do the song, Some Girls
I was 18, loved my jeans and halters, natural faces and hair with a love for the Stones. What a time, right?!
This album from 78 also had a song “Shattered” .That was the time of both Punk and Disco.I remember reading in a newspaper someone say that the stones came up with the greatest Disco song (Miss you) and the greatest Punk song (Shattered).A little generous but both definitely great songs.

And I liked the disco sound allowed me to love them more
👏👏👏
They have tons of fantastic songs...sorry but to me this is not one of them! Get a surprise and go way back..UNDER MY THUMB , SHES JUST A Rainbow ....
I had the single, trying to remember, I think...Far Away Eyes was the B side.
Their response was basically 'We've done our disco song". File it.
If you haven’t already, the official music video for their song, “Waiting On A Friend” Is a really cool Stones song! Check it out👍
Waiting on a friend and Emotional rescue! Also You can't always get what you want and She's so cold! Such great memories with these songs and of course Miss you!!!
"Waiting on a Friend" is such a great song!
I totally second that 🤟
Please consider Sympathy for the Devil and Emotional Rescue. Both are deeply funky.
Miss You was such a controversial song when it came out but it was THUNDER in the underground dance clubs, with that nasty bass line.
Emotional Rescue is so unique. First time I heard it, I was walking on the street, and I turned towards a store that had the door open and the music was flowing out onto the sidewalk. I got pulled toward the door like a magnet.
The bass line carries the song! Killer bassline!

Man, that bass line gets me every time. Such a groove and a vibe.
One of my favorite Stones songs. I LOVE this band - The Rolling Stones ARE rock and roll.
At this time, Mick was hanging out at clubs in NYC and disco was the hottest sound at the time.
Mick was inspired to make this 70s dance classic.

The Stones loved the blues and they incorporated the genre into their music! Great song thank ya'll!
"Under My Thumb" is another great Stones song with a unique instrument providing the riff that you should try!
The Stones longevity is remarkable as are their songs ..
Yeah, it’s “disco” Stones, but it’s so much more just a pure straight up vibe. So so good! 🔥🤙
My second favorite Stones song short of only "Brown Sugar" which is their best song ever.
I thought that was HONKY TONK WOMAN.
This whole album is an absolute killer, and if you want a REAL jolt, throw on track six, "Girl With The Faraway Eyes".
Stones goin full-on Country, and doin it WELL!
✌😎
yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
and listen to ' shattered ' punk song ~ all on the same album ' some girls
@Hurricane was going to suggest same song. Excellent.
Hurricane - I found another believer! "Girl with far away eyes" is a killer. I loved traveling up the Ca coast listening to that song (and album)
This song played on an episode of Starsky and Hutch - the two main characters were dancing to it in a disco. Starsky even donned a white leisure suit.
They even made disco-rock sound cool! "Emotional Rescue" was another great Stones disco-rock song! Also try "Beast of Burden" and "Shattered" from this same era! Awesome!
From "Some Girls", probably my second favorite Stones album. Every song is great. "Shattered" would be another great song from this album.
The Stones are iconic; I grew up on them. Here's a few requests: "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" (studio version), "Fool To Cry" live official video, "Time Waits For No One" (studio version). They're all great.
Wow! I was going through Marine Corps OCS when this song came out. The more extreme the experience, the more branded it is in your memory. AND everything connected to it. "Angie" is another BIG departure for the Stones, an acoustic ballad that is about the end of a love relationship.
My hubby was in the marines from 79 to 83. He loved alot of their songs!
A unique cut for the world's greatest rock band. Bill Wyman's bass line makes it all happen.
Bill Wyman will probably never get his props as a bassist. His playing was the heartbeat and vibrance to their sound. Truly unsung.
One of their best IMHO. Funky.
"Some Girls" was released in 1978, when Disco was at its height. "Miss You" was the Stones' "disco song."
excellent choice..the Stones are blues based but always lean into rock,disco, country, reggae and ballads..They, as Keith says, put the roll in Rock and Roll..
The bass playing on the upbeat!!! Never before in rock!

All good songs
She's so cold. Love that one also.
"Brown Sugar" "Get off of my Cloud" "Jumpin Jack Flash" "Under My Thumb"....and on and on and on
Yes that was a New York musician named “Sugar Blue” playing harmonic. The story was Mick saw him playing on the streets in Paris.
Only the Stones could transition from the bad boys of rock to this genre. At the time I liked it and did not think it was full blown Disco because it had a story and a melody beside the constant beat. It also had Jagger in classic style singing with plenty of his own personality in the delivery. Pure Mick regardless of the beat.
A lot of disco songs actually had a story. Think of Gloria Gaynor and all the Bee Gees tunes!
I always thought this was more funk.
Whilst it's superficially different, this song always felt very signature Stones to me.
This is my favorite Stones song. I love the bass playing on the up beat.
When the Rolling Stones do disco, but still sound so hard. Also, it's one of the catchiest riffs ever, you'll be whistling this song all day.
🎸🤘
It's like Keith said, "You like disco? Step aside and let us show you how it *should* sound."
Disco made other bands worse. The Stones made disco kick ass.
Good connection made by Amber about Jim Morrison and Mick Jagger making their style so impacting
Miss You was their "cross over" song into disco. It was considered innovative to do that. Many Stones fans were not happy about this song, but as a Stones fan I loved it!

Was lucky enough to see them live in the sixties Fantastic
They are just so cool - your body just moves to their music and Keith Richards the way he plays guitar is just amazing ❤️
The Chambers Brothers
"Time has Come Today (long version)" !!!
Bill Wyman's bass on this track is just soooooo funky. Most of the time, when you think of the Rolling Stones, you think of Keith Richard's riffs, but this song is all about the bass.
Was just wondering if that was actually him playing.
This is one of the first songs that comes to mind when I hear their name. I saw them on this tour and they were phenomenal !!
Some Girls is a fantastic album. So many varied hits through their careers. That variety and constant evolution is what gives the Stones such tremendous appeal over multiple generations!! Keep digging into the Stones. Still gotta check out "Little T&A", Mick didn't sing everything done my the stones. Occasionally Keith Richards would drop a banger with a totally different vocal vibe. Give a reaction soon!!!
Use to skate to this when it first came out. ✌🏽
Hell Yeah a banger!! I always considered this song the Stone’s DISCO 🪩 song! ❤️. If you want to hear the COOLEST opening of ANY song, (my opinion), is the Stones’ MONKEY MAN 🔥🔥😳
Monkey man is awesome!!!
I like it too, Monkey Man is the only Stones we ever covered when I was still playing in bars. That guitar riff...
@@If6turnsouttobe9 That’s so cool!
This is technically disco, but it transcends the genre. The best song from the summer of 1978, when I was 16.
Sugar Blue is amazing on the harmonica!
That same disco era of the stones produced one of my favorites SHATTERED! I highly recommend it
Love this song for sure. But Amber “She’s like a Rainbow “ Not to many people will know it or request it but it very worth the listen even if ya just listen on your own, maybe type me when ya see me and let me know how ya liked it…. I will pay as soon as I can get the extra $s. Lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌸
The Stones could keep you listening for a very long time. Enjoy it all!
A perfect disco era beat, led by the one-and-only Charlie Watts on his Gretsch drum kit, sadly passed away some months ago. And of course, there ara some blues licks in guitars and harmonic job, and by the way, there is a extended version of this tune, with a killer saxo solo in the bridge of the song. Very cool, guys, watching you reacting to a this fantastic classic.
I absolutely loved this when it was released.... I was 18 and had it taped, on cassette for the whole 2 sides!..... just me driving about in my little tiny turquoise mini clubman estate..... memories❤
A absolute summer song 🎵 it was playing every where you went when it came out
They will DEFINITELY be touring their new album.
Every time they have ever toured, people ask could This Be The Last Time (referring to one of their songs).
But this tour could really be it!
GO SEE THEM!!!
One of the Stones' best songs from one of their best albums. Try "Shattered" from the same album, but do NOT do the track 'Some Girls.' Trust me on that one. 😀
As for the blues, it was at the heart of the music of The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and so many more bands from that era. They grew up on blues music.
prob last good Stones album, sadly...but they had a gr8 run
Some Girls is an awesome song, but I doubt they could play it on UA-cam.
I can still hear this coming from the windows of multiple apartments in 1978 on KRQE while I was at the pool with all my friends. A 10 year old me loving every minute of it.
After hearing this when it first came out, my younger sister and I would randomly look at the other and cry "Whatsa matter whichu, boy???"
Love that!
This is an example of some of the disco-influenced songs that a number of rock groups put out in the late seventies to conform to the times, this song from 1978, Kiss's "I Was Made for Loving You" from 1979, Rod Stewart's "Do You Think I'm Sexy?" from 1978, Steely Dan's "Peg" and "Josie" from 1977, Blondie's "Heart of Glass" from 1978, etc.
The Stones “Waiting On a Friend” is amazing
Gotta do it
One of my favorites, too.
My favorite Stones song !! Saw them twice Voodoo Lounge and Bridges to Babylon tours !! Absolutely Awesome !! 🤘
One of my favorite songs from the Stones. 😃
Rolling Stones - Undercover of the Night - Emotional Rescue - Angie - Waiting on a friend
Yes, the Stones still perform, and more than that, they still sell out huge arenas. Living legends.
The closest I came to seeing them was "Stones at the Max" on Imax back in the day. And it was a thrill.
That's bluesman Sugar Blue on harmonica.
Love this song!! Danced to this song every weekend in my young days! Die hards called it Disco. Not really but dang it has a great bass line!! Bill Wyman 💜
Such a classic and a bolt from the blue. Nobody expected this from the Stones and still is hugely popular at clubs playing Soul dance crossover music
Awesome band!! “Satisfaction” is my favorite!!🤘🔥
When this song dropped it was played at every picnic, family reunion, school dance, etc..it was hot
"Can't You Hear Me Knocking?" is a fantastic Stones song, worth checking out...
My favorite Stones song 😃
The Stones last Number 1 hit. Was in 1978 right in the middle of the Disco era and Mick was a regular on the Disco scene.
The Stones do Disco. Lovely. Where is there current rap song? C'mon Stones, money to be made here.
The Rolling Stones are one of the best bands, having produced music across so much time ... something like 30 very productive years. They outlasted the Beatles, the Who, Led Zep, the Doors ...
BTW, have you guys listened to any of Robert Plant's solo work after Led Zeppelin? He has a few good tunes. "Big Log" is smooth vibe that I think you'll enjoy. Jimmy Page joins him on guitar for that one.
Big Log is a great tune. Its actually a really good cruising song.
Played by every band that played dance bars. What a great time to be young.
Ironically in my mid teens I was a Beatles fan but in my 20’s and way beyond learned I actually must preferred the Stones and lost all interest in the Beatles.
This is a great Stone’s song. This music aged very well.
"Shattered" and ""She's so Cold" are the best tunes by the Stones.
This song was everywhere in ‘78.
The clubs,the Stones ‘78 American Tour, college and high school parties, and on tv.
The Stones are the greatest.
