@pillowsquish18 :)) Oh yeah, like i'll just snap my fingers and do it all again... Anna would've been superb in the remake of Marilyn's life, true, because she was Marilyn all over again, though i haven't seen Michelle Phillips in her new movie. See my nu Duelin' Banjos vid, considering how desperate i am for views and comments, ;) As some famous person once muttered, 'Why is life so cruel ?' The chap's name was / is Kamahl, the stage name of Kandiah Kamalesvaran.

[manfreadstraw]

@pillowsquish18 Lordy, where would we be without Wikipedia... Thank you !! :)

[23grilo88]

[manfreadstraw]

@23grilo88 Many thanks !! :) Great song too. Love Jagger's drawl... and Mick Taylor's beautiful lead guitar work...

[BaldersonSteve]

This song just started running through my head and I am glad I found this on Youtube. Hadda hear it immediately! Too good.

[TheBoosttube]

Love it!!

[manfreadstraw]

@TheBoosttube It's a pretty good track - thanks ! If I'd a known it was gonna be this popular, i woulda made it slightly better, but them's the ropes ! Thank you pal !! :)

[Ozzmaster2112]

Kinda sounds like Jimmy Buffet lol :P

[manfreadstraw]

@Ozzmaster2112 Yes i know what you mean, and hope Jimmy's recovered from his bad stage fall. Love Mick's laid-back drawl in this, classic !! Thanks again. :) Amazing how timeless this still sounds... 

[Ozzmaster2112]

@manfreadstraw

If he doesn't recover he can eat cheeseburgers in paradise :P

But being serious i really hope he recovers...

And the difference between goode and bad music: Goode music doesn't get old within a week :D

[manfreadstraw]

@Ozzmaster2112 Right on - thank you !! :)

[Ozzmaster2112]

@manfreadstraw

No problem :D

[52Mik]

Thank you so much for sharing this. Gettin hard to find these fabulous old songs anymore. This generation has got nothin on us!!!!!!!

[REDEYE420CHRONIC]

love this song :)

[manfreadstraw]

@REDEYE420CHRONIC Great you enjoyed - one of my Stones favourites too - many thanks !! I'm surprised it's actually so popular, lol.

[lamarridley2]

THOSE OL DEAD OPIUM POPPIES

[manfreadstraw]

@lamarridley2 "The tiny kidney-shaped seeds have been harvested from dried seed pods by various civilizations for thousands of years. The seeds are used, whole or ground, as an ingredient in many foods, and they are pressed to yield poppyseed oil." My budgie adores poppyseed, doesn't yours? Have a great Sunday.

[barefoot191]

GREAT song from a GREAT album from a GREAT band. Nice job with the video, thanks for keeping a song like this alive. I really love the lyrics to this treasure. In my opinion, this original version is second to none. No one comes close and I won't forget to put roses on your grave.

[manfreadstraw]

@barefoot191 Hey, very thoughtful of you, but do you want the grave number now, or later? Great song - thanks very much!! :)

[manfreadstraw]

@cosmiccrystal7 Thanks. :) 

[DjTaras1979]

what a great tune.........where did this music go other than being engraved in our hearts?. Its these moments that we look back and not only ask ourselves where this music went.......this music is still there we just have to find it again and forget what today has to offer regarding music. Talent is more than just about money - its a way of life for someone who dont know anythin else. God bless!! and see you at the next concert!!!!!!! :)

[manfreadstraw]

@DjTaras1979 Absolutely, i will be at the next concert, hopefully. Likewise, God bless and thanks, great you enjoyed! Btw have you seen Scorsese's film - on dvd now - of them performing in NYC at the Beacon? (Think that's what it's called. Excellent concert.)

[miamikid08sdad]

Whose the babe?

[manfreadstraw]

@miamikid08sdad Miranda Lambert - glad you enjoyed, thank you !!

[imaStonesFan]

Really Good video!! Love it.

[manfreadstraw]

@imaStonesFan Many thanks my friend!! :)

[Mahadeva108108]

this video is horrible. to predictiable. and clich'e.

[manfreadstraw]

@Mahadeva108108 Correct, it's ma tooth pickin' modus operandi to be predictable, clichéd, an' plain ol' ordinary ! I looked at one of your vids - good stuff, liked it. When they invade, don't forget, it's the intellectuals they round up and silence.

[Mahadeva108108]

@manfreadstraw

hahaha that is correct they will round up and silence the others. : ) you got any more vids youve worked on Id like to see them.

[manfreadstraw]

@Mahadeva108108 Erm, try the Loving Cup one, or Queen of The Nile / Blinded By Love one, but again very predictable stuff. Or try Sweet Black Angel for something slightly different. Actually i'm in fear of the invasion now, must run! :)

[SuperRolingstone]

@confio me pasa lo mismo  son los mas grandes de todos los tiempos saludos

[szaboa2]

[CONFIO]

[alleclipsed]

Is this the original?

[manfreadstraw]

@alleclipsed Yep, it sure is - hope you enjoyed !

[benwety95]

@NoRulesInNam

Sorry Man, I think Richard Clapton and Ella Thompson did the best version on Rockwiz

[manfreadstraw]

@benwety95 I'll check it out - thanks for that !

[IamNowJMAN]

Stones version is the best.

[manfreadstraw]

@IamNowJMAN I like this Stones original version a lot too... thank you !!

[szumwalt]

@IamNowJMAN townes is better

[NoRulesInNam]

Townes Van Zandt definitely did the best version.

[manfreadstraw]

@NoRulesInNam I take your word - i'll check it out - thanks!

[CONFIO]

I like Miranda Lambert

[manfreadstraw]

@CONFIO She's a pretty gal... ;)

[katdaddy511]

Sing



[manfreadstraw]

@katdaddy511 On the count of three...

[manfreadstraw]

@athousandthrills any idea who the real Susie is? only asking... i don't.

[manfreadstraw]

@athousandthrills i'm easy.. i'm not familiar with that version... so i stick to the original ;)

[depressed321]

@manfreadstraw Thanks for posting.  I like the stones and like the different styles of this and far away eyes compared to their other songs.

[TehRealSaradomin]

The dead flowers are dead poppies that are used to make opium and herion.

[manfreadstraw]

@TehRealSaradomin Hmmmmmm...... ok.

[dexydonovanroger]

@TehRealSaradomin herion?.....whats that.

[Dayniac4324]

Wow -- a great Stones song ... haven't heard this for a long long time. And a great video too !! Thank you manfread ... straight to my fav's ... many stars for you my friend !! hugs... Toni

[manfreadstraw]

@Dayniac4324 Many thanks Toni, wow, glad you enjoyed !! Like it when they play this laid-back style and Mick drawls like a true mid-west country boy... haha ! Thank you for the stars too - much appreciate it !! - manfread, xoxo

[Dayniac4324]

@manfreadstraw yeah ... midlands of the uk ! haha ! I was thinking he had a pretty good drawl on this one !! I really do like this song !!

[manfreadstraw]

@Dayniac4324 haha ! that'd be right too !! read in an interview a little while ago that he sees himself first & foremost as "a blues singer", but he didn't do his c&w credentials any harm in this either... so happy you enjoyed this one !! thank you, hugs - manfread

[zaaritha]

Great! Never heard before!

[manfreadstraw]

@zaaritha It's from their 1971 album Sticky Fingers which also has their hit song Brown Sugar track on it, and several other great tracks. Really love this album, Stones at their best.
