Paint It Black - Eric Burdon and the Animals

[CrusaderDom3]

Love the Animals, but as for here prefer the rolling stones.

[GiovannaNYC]

Godfucking beautiful!

[rhaivaen]

Better then the cover the Rolling Stones did :)

[superjohn1658]

@rhaivaen The Rolling Stones Wrote The Song This Would Be The Cover

[BarrioPunkRock]

WHY DOESNT THIS GO LOUDER ?!?!?!?!?!

[neuron2003]

Once upon a time in the Valley of the Sun (Phoenix) there was a DJ on KCAC named William Compton. One late afternoon he played an extended version of Paint It Black. In the middle of the violin solo he wove in a Vivaldi piece, matching the key and time signature perfectly. Unfortunately for posterity, these live broadcasts were not recorded, or else you would have your mind twisted, turned inside out, and returned to you (eventually). I am blessed to have lived in that time.

Always thought the Animals version of this blew away the stones.

[Susrich]

Emotionally complex - super modern - rap - house - all in that song!!!

[Susrich]

Emotionally complex and paradox :D

Is Animals orginal performed this song or stones?

[Billman723]

stones originally recorded in 1966 and the animals did it in 1967.

[dieterhenrich]

The Stones of course!

[DerDervish]

who has made this song was it eric burdon or the roling stones ?

[CODESPEAKER12161992]

Eric burdon

[shahnmusic]

no i think the stones wrote it first in '66. and then burdon covered it in '67 with the animals, and in '70 with war

[francoisfeldman]

yeah!!!!! I was searching another good version and I see this,Incredible intro.

[JulianThomePictures]

Incredible voice

[selenio999]

thanks a lot for posting this beautiful song

[ageant01]

This version is just awesome, no other way to put it.

[neduddgi]

Oh, my God!!!!!! **********

[shestalou]

I am also a big fan of the rolling stones but I love this recording of paint it black, he always makes the song his own, instead of repeating what is already done.

[JulianThomePictures]

Brillant recording. You won't hear such things today again.

[ADVOCCCAT]

Right You are. But today still we can listen to the recordings from the past while the people in the past couldn't in any way listen to music now played. In this case we're better off.
