A bit sarcastic and unsympathetic toward the housewife's lot, if you ask me........what about all the drugs that Mick and Keith took to upkeep their lifestyles?
I know they're not finger pointing exactly, but this song seems to have a bit an undercurrent of "housewives don't really have it as hard as they think they do". I think I like the Stones better when they're not trying to tackle serious issues like this.
Love the Rolling Stones and always will! this is how God intended Rock and Roll to be! Not some pussy ass Justin Bieber crap! And I feel bad saying that as he is just a kid, but he sucks plan and simple…And I m German we aren’t too good about people’s feelings, try as we might sigh.
@DarkHeart135 Ah yes it is about drugs duh! I maybe German but I know enough about "The Rolling Stones" to tell you yeah its about prescription drugs..valium to be exact! Except then it was yellow today it is blue but same med...I am not trying to be mean but that is what the song is about.
@fodlrke, @MrVGSantanna - I think the very first punk rock song is Get Off Of my Cloud. It has to be - the irreverent lyrics, vocals, title, everything. Shouldn't it?
My childhood exactly...my mom took valium steady, even when she was pregnant with me. Back in the sixties, they were thought to be safe and wouldn't hurt unborn children...same with cigarette smoking and drinking. In fact, my mom said that right after the baby was born, they would bring all the mother's a cigarette and an ashtray...right in their beds. Funny how we survived....but we did!. .
@DaggettBliss i feel you but try being a child of your generation...living in you generation and you find out you father has cancer@the young age of 64
I used to get the 5 mg vallum tabs perscribed years ago upon my discharge and yea they were very Yellow in color. The Green ones are better they are the tens thow in a bag or two of dope and your in NOD CITY !!!
This is how it was then the docs prescribed Valium and dished them out like sweets when I was in my early 20's they were the cure all for everything at that time till 20yrs later there was a generation addicted to prescribed drugs. I'm generalising of course not everyone took them lots did though.
Ah, benzos won't kill ya, unless you take like 100 and wash them down with a liter of vodka. And hey, where's the Valium in the video? The round blue ones look like Klonnies. (I should know.) The white ones look like, I don't know, antibiotics or something. Ha, sorry. Great video for a great song, thanks for posting.
@captaindirtydick Kid? I'm 35 years old, Grandpa, and if you don't care, why bothering commenting? STFU and let me enjoy the music AND the pictures. That's what some of us do when we're watching videos. If you don't like it, go listen to your LPs.
@wildj611 I was kind of curious about the other pills were -- thanks for letting me know. I absolutely don't think benzos are a joke; they should always be taken under the supervision of a doctor and as much as I joke around, I'm careful with all of my meds. I'm terribly sorry about your friend. It really isn't common to OD on benzos, though, unless they're mixed with alcohol or other drugs.
@wildj611 This song was written way before the advent of Xanax. Also, the medications in Britain are at times not available in the US, or not the same formulation.
@Rapunzel676 And you're wrong. Benzos are no joke and they kill more people than opiates do. I just lost a friend who died in his sleep because of Xanax
@wildj611 You are very correct on this one , though. People are dying at alarming rates because of mis-use and make it difficult for patients to receive rx. for benzos when clinically called for. Doctors are becoming too scared to prescribe.
did she take them b4, during or after her 19th nervous breakdown? lol actually Barbiturates were used more than Benzodiazepines as tranquilizers or old school tricyclic anti-depressants in the mid-1960's when this song came out b4 it was known they can be more dangerous even deadly in an overdose especially when mixed with alcohol.
@busterbone Well said, my friend. These younger listeners are discussing the pills- which vary greatly in appearance depending on whether they are name-brand or generic, the strength, and other variants.
Dear DaggettBliss....I too can feel the 'weary'. I refuse to give in, in spite of the world full of an undue amount of turmoil now compared to when I was 17 (that was 1965) Ta Da!!. I keep on dancing too. I grab all the delicious music I can. It tells me I'm here to enjoy. I love what was then, and find the good parts out there now (mostly non tech) of music today. I was a dj and sang a bit on stage, it helps. This tune is just the bomb, I just loved it soooo much.
@blueticecho You're lucky they woke you up instead of hauling your butt to their ER. Sedation for MRI's is common, but self-medication is looked down on in most legitimate health care facilities.....
I got my first paper round to save up and buy Aftermath just for this song. After all these years it still sounds great. Wyman's bass sends tingles up and down my spine.
I LOVE THIS SONG!......want to know some juicy gossip about dave wyman that they dare not print in the magazines.....go to "i see red jimeapg" and read my 3 comments. regards.
I have an extreme high tolerance to drugs. I don't know if it's my extreme slow metabolism or an immunity. I've took Heroin, Crack, LSD, LSA, Shrooms, coke and various pills I.E. Lortab, Percocet, Xanax, etc and none of them effected me.
The only drugs that have an obvious effect on me are Marijuana and Alcohol. Marijuana (indica I believe) puts me to sleep. I don't like port for that reason, but it's a great sleep aid. Alcohol is my choice. But, wippits tore me up before. Brain killer...
@texizgreat Those would have been black beauties,and yeah, they were given as diet pills! Then there were Quaaludes and all sorts of other mind candies,and it got a little out of hand after a while,people started having bad things happening..
Now it's all just boring antidepressants and they're not much fun no matter how well they do work.
@texizgreat Someone knows a little something but definitely not a lot of something. Methamphetamine is not amphetamine. Dextroamphetamine is stll scripted for dozens of reasons. Everywhere from kindergardeners to fighter pilots and astronauts. Methamphetamine is only scripted under the name Desoxyn and is far less recreational than dextroamphetamine or 'D-Amphetamine'
@ryanlewiz ....as a 55 yr old baby boomer who has been there since the beginning,and has dabbled continuously since 1969 I can say with certainly that YOU my friend,KNOW your drugs.Alot of people CLAIM to know drugs but I can tell from your post that you are highly educated in the do's and dont's of street/pharma's!!!!!!!Would love to have a conversation with you.
if thats the easy way out taking a pill!you are just letting your phyco-doc off the hook!cauz he can't hel[p-or don't have time to help you he has other people to scam and keep on a string!
Ya know, I really don't give a fuck what anyone puts in their bodies. I was sending a warning. My doc has me on so many sedatives that I don't know what day it is anymore. But I'm beyond caring, now. I'm gonna take them and drift through the rest of my psychotic life. They are not life savers. They're life buoys to cling to when I'm drowning and there's nothing else around. Now someone pass me a beer. Cheers.
who does care its all good.....differant tastes yes but all amazing IT'S MUSIC...creation...it's all important and wonderful....I RESPECT EVERY ARTIST HERE THANKS FOR UR AWESOME TALENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
@fascistbullygirl13 Valium's not too hard to find, but a lot of doctors don't like using it and its generics (like Diazepam) are cheaper. But I still take the "little blue pills", myself. But I agree about Ativan—or Lorazepam—whichever.
How did a discussion board about the greatest (in my opinion) Stones song turn into a day at the pharmacy, anyway?
@jestysoup WELL, simply due to the nature of the songs meaning I could easily guess ;p I'd have to disagree with you about the valium. As you stated yourself, doctors don't like using it. Diazepam is of course the generic name for valium. All of said drugs are old enough that much cheaper generics are available.
@jestysoup LMAO!! Cuz we're all re-living fond memories of our lives, or our mom's lives, or someone we know lives!! It's all good:-) No judgments here!!
like i said, dolts. there have been junkies for a long, long time. and junkie isnt a term just to refer to heroin addicts in particular. by the way my comment was sarcasm, since you couldnt tell. also i get my information from facts, like history, not from fictional movies. this could go on forever. im over it.
@Freyja1133 yes it can! it helps you focus on 1 subject instead of getting distracted you may see this as calming down. But if you drink some more youll see that your heartbeat is going up and your irritated.
I get the tens... no kids, just life. It's nice to be numb. It is a drag getting old when all your friends are no longer available due to kids, families, jobs, etc. "Mother's Little Helper" indeed gets me through the day. Oh? Is it that time again? I'd rather be working.
@viscerallyrepulsed ey were pill poppers back then... you'd learn this fact if you'd watch the movie Valley of the dolls which speaks of what can happen when one gets hooked on Dolls
@viscerallyrepulsed they were pill poppers back then... you'd learn this fact if you'd watch the movie Valley of the dolls which speaks of what can happen when one gets hooked on Dolls
They need to blast this song on the radio, because of people's recent OVER-ABUSE of prescription pills, funny how a song recorded nearly 50 years ago predicted a future of junkies.
sigh...its a magnificent song written about the 60's and the plight of the stereotypical "housewife." they were real and they existed when this song was written. they were also taking a lot of valium and a drug called librium. apparently 1 in 20 women were on one of these two drugs. they actually called the 1960's the year of tranquelizers. its not a song about stoner moms in the 60's but an entire era of miserable women self medicating just to be able to stand their lives.
A bit sarcastic and unsympathetic toward the housewife's lot, if you ask me........what about all the drugs that Mick and Keith took to upkeep their lifestyles?
I know they're not finger pointing exactly, but this song seems to have a bit an undercurrent of "housewives don't really have it as hard as they think they do". I think I like the Stones better when they're not trying to tackle serious issues like this.

@bamnibaum Yeah, but this song is about Valium, which housewives were getting addicted to at the time. It's actually a social commentary song.

Ativan's ok, Klonopin is wonderful, Valium is hard to find these days.

@fascistbullygirl13 Valium's not too hard to find, but a lot of doctors don't like using it and its generics (like Diazepam) are cheaper. But I still take the "little blue pills", myself. But I agree about Ativan—or Lorazepam—whichever.
How did a discussion board about the greatest (in my opinion) Stones song turn into a day at the pharmacy, anyway?

@jestysoup WELL, simply due to the nature of the songs meaning I could easily guess ;p I'd have to disagree with you about the valium. As you stated yourself, doctors don't like using it. Diazepam is of course the generic name for valium. All of said drugs are old enough that much cheaper generics are available.

like i said, dolts. there have been junkies for a long, long time. and junkie isnt a term just to refer to heroin addicts in particular. by the way my comment was sarcasm, since you couldnt tell. also i get my information from facts, like history, not from fictional movies. this could go on forever. im over it.

I agree it's one of their great early songs, but it came out a year after Satisfaction, so it can't be their best until the release of Satisfaction.

I got my first paper round to buy 'Aftermath' just for this track. After all these years it is still my favourite Stones track. I LOVE THE BASS!

@Freyja1133 yes it can! it helps you focus on 1 subject instead of getting distracted you may see this as calming down. But if you drink some more youll see that your heartbeat is going up and your irritated.

@jeroenvlas Not me, Jer... I had a nasty /life threatening side effect from Ritalin at the age of 11
it was ritalin that went to my ehart & sped my heartbeat up to the point that it skipped a beat
So in my case caffeine wouldn;t hurt me,it helps
there's another way that caffeine helps..I'm asthmatic& caffeine relaxs my bronchial tubes( lungs)

@jeroenvlas jer, I was put on ritalin because the family doc misdiagnosed the most recognisable symptom..A fast metabolism with severe hyperactivity

I get the tens... no kids, just life. It's nice to be numb. It is a drag getting old when all your friends are no longer available due to kids, families, jobs, etc. "Mother's Little Helper" indeed gets me through the day. Oh? Is it that time again? I'd rather be working.

They need to blast this song on the radio, because of people's recent OVER-ABUSE of prescription pills, funny how a song recorded nearly 50 years ago predicted a future of junkies.

Great post. How true! The Stones were so ahead of their time.

sigh...its a magnificent song written about the 60's and the plight of the stereotypical "housewife." they were real and they existed when this song was written. they were also taking a lot of valium and a drug called librium. apparently 1 in 20 women were on one of these two drugs. they actually called the 1960's the year of tranquelizers. its not a song about stoner moms in the 60's but an entire era of miserable women self medicating just to be able to stand their lives.

The person who clicked "dislike" probably had to grow up with the hell of a stoned mom on "mother's little helpers." I can relate...

The best Stones' song. There is a mistake in the description. This song came after 'Satisfaction'.
