Marianne Faithfull - My Time Of Sorrow (1965)

[musael22]

She had to bear the projections of an entire generation. This is enought to fuck-up any of you.

So, giive her respect.

[hamptonwickster]

Ill cheer you up darlin . . . .

[BBQFanNo1]

Severe laryngitis, coupled with persistent cocaine abuse permanently altered the sound of Faithfull's voice, leaving it cracked and lower in pitch.

[iodinebabe]

Some people are pathetic. Just because she is pretty & 'virginal' looking, they assume that she has been corrupted into the evil underworld of drugs & sex! How misguided. Don't blame Mick Jagger or anyone else for her drug habits, etc.- she chose to do what she did herself. She was a well educated, I assume intelligent, young lady who wanted to live the rock & roll lifestyle & she is 100% responsible for the outcome of that desire.

[lauraleesleep]

@gabsylv You are the offspring of a corrupt society and it's disgusting. Take your sexist comments elsewhere.

[bwoyrough]

Does anyone have a copy of the documentary she did in Jamaica?? aired on Uk TV 1992 ish.... PLEASE message me if you have a copy.....

[visionbear]

IN VIET NAM SOMEONE SENT A CARE PACKAGE WITH A VINYL ALBUM WITH A PICTURE OF THIS BEAUTIFUL LADY . WHEN THE RECORD WAS PLAYED, SOME PEOPLE STOPPED WHAT THEY WE DOING TO LISTEN AND OTHERS CAME OVER TO THE SHACK TO SEE WHO SHE WAS AND LISTEN TO HER SINGING. A STUNNING LADY WITH SUCH AN AMAZING SO TOUCHING EMOTIONAL VOICE MAKING YOU THINK OF THE GIRLS YOU LEFT BACK HOME . I WISH WE COULD HAVE SEEN THEO PICTURES OF HER THEN LIKE I SEE ON THE YOU TUBES OF HER THEN .

"Life does not create who we are, it reveals who we are!"

[doncarvill1963]

@bermudaguy1 Well said!

[SluttChops]

Just persuing the comments and they are all so f***ing ridiculous. It's ancient history - for bother her and Mick. I am sure neither particularly care. They are both artists in their own right. It's annoying that every page ends up a discussion about her relationship with Mick Jagger - over 40 years ago! They've both moved on long ago. I suggest everyone else does as well. They both have careers beyond that point.

[moznico]

I don't blame my best girlfriend for my addiction. Nor do I blame my boyfriend of 8 years for our/my additction. They didn't say "Smoke this or you die" MY CHOICE to stop or not...No one should be blaming for another's problem.... : )

[AK8591]

who is Mick? Jagger?

[hujaqaa]

@AK8591 yes!

[diegopadin1827]

@AK8591

no, the mouse...

[MysteryMusic1000]

It wasn't entirely Mick's fault. Mick was actually the one who tried to help Marianne get off the drugs and rekindle their relationships. He actually tried to help her with her drug problems. Marianne was a grown woman regardless, she could make her own choices at that time. She would've found drugs another way, it was the 60s man!

Besides, Mick and Marianne are both great, amazing singers. Marianne still has a lovely voice and is still beautiful.

[MyTurtlePissedOnMe]

Shall I hit Mick now?

or later? (:

[katzinthecrib]

~Kick Micks face??? Are you for real Nightfighter..I think not...Life man..It's called Life!! This Lovely woman wouldn't be who she is 2-Day nor would anyone one else w/the tinyest bit of caractor..suck it up and learn..."What doesn't kill you Makes you stronger"...

One more tid bit pally said by 'Paul Newman'.."If you don't have enemies You don't have caractor."....Life my friend..Life!!!~

[tigercub1998]

and another thing:

SHE left HIM. its not like he said "goodbye your leaving with no money at all." i dont understand how she became homeless after leaving mick, but i heard he really wanted her back. so how exactly can you guys blame mick? maybe a bit of his is his fault, ill say that much, but you guys seem to lash out on him for more than he did in my eyes

[BlackMonk66]

@tigercub1998 Possibly more than a bit, but she's responsible as well. They both were using a lot of drugs back then and one sentence no one has ever uttered is "wow, frequent drug use has not only made you more intelligent, you're also more compassionate and sensitive." Anyway, she always speaks well of him.

As for her being "ok," I have a feeling that in 50 years, Mick'll be remembered as her boyfriend.

[tigercub1998]

im a stones fan and this is what i say:

1. you guys cant accuse mick of messing up her voice every time. she was on marijuana before dating him

2. if you guys plan on retorting, please understand i dont hate her but eh..... shes ok :P (i said shes ok thats a good thing)

3. you guys who think there was misery cast on her from mick, they dated for 4 years. so apparently she must have been pretty dang happy with him

im not being biased or anything, all im saying is lay off mick please.

[jennyeverett]

how i love this song... <3

[kisshomedotnet]

Cute

[Catherineone]

I agree with Nightfighter as well

[drb7777]

I agree with you Nightfighter74

[MrNINTENDOJOE]

what did mick do help make her famous 

[kukukev]

the original Courtney Love...

[Floridays1]

Read her book.....quite an insight into their lives....

[Aldebaron9]

he didn't do anything that she didn't want to do...... she could have left at anytime......

[goldspout]

If you kick in Mick's face we won't be able to hear his explanation as to why he did what he did to her.

[videlli63]

There are worse things than being sadly beautiful. Marianne possesses more warmth than the whole bleeding lot who took advantage of her star struck youthfulness. I think that she has done quite well for herself. I saw the Stones in "80 and am an "Exile on Main Street" fan, but have way less interest in anything that they did in comparison.

[TheDavidjoy]

It was release time from the restrictions of the fifties and growing up after a war that had brought the U.K to its knees. England was swinging and everyone felt great. We thought it would all go on for ever and that we would be forever young. Of course that could never be. Anyway marianne was a child of the time and she at least lived life to the full. No boring job like some of us. Yep rock on beautifull girl.

[TheDavidjoy]

With hindsight maybe most of us would have done things differently. But hey there is no rehearsal we do what we do at the time. I do not remember the lovely Marianne saying she would have done it differently. It was a heady time and everything was new to try, no one knew then what affect drugs may have and I guess it was daring and exciting at the time. The adrenalin was flowing with all the excitement of what was happening. I never dabbled, but hey I was a scaredy cat so that was my reason.

[ExRhodesian]

What the hell she partied hard, I wish I had of, keep her legs together yeah thats sound advice. I should have cut my balls off when I was 15 would have spared me having deadbeat kids and spared those poor bastards who thought they would have a better life once whitey was gone. Yeah Marianne was hot and Mick bonked her and I stay awake at night babbling shit.

[19glitabug65]

well women should learn to keep there legs shut ''dont matter how popular/rich on either side (mostly butt ugly rich men(wankers)) i have no sympathy.. she did what she did and 99.9% of the time its beautiful girls with hidious men...even i wouldnt go with any man i didnt find sexy in my minds eye..money and fame wouldn't of swung it for me....she did what she did as well as the brain deadsthat followed her...simple as that

[TheDavidjoy]

@19glitabug65 Girls fall in love and if their heart rules then that is the way it is. Love is not a subject that can be learned. It is an emotion and choices are made because of strong feelings. Marianne is no different to any other girl in regard to this and I do not believe for a moment that fame or money mattered to Marianne. She obtained fame in her own right and I am sure that she came from a comfortable background. Her speech and pronounciation are perfect English, good education

[DancesWithJoy]

@TheDavidjoy One of her famous quotes from the sixties is in fact something to the effect that "I do not care about fame I just want money in the bank.'

[TheDavidjoy]

@DancesWithJoy If Marianne did say that then she was a very wise young girl, you cannot eat fame.

[TheDavidjoy]

@DancesWithJoy Well if Marianne did say that she was one wise young lady.

[19glitabug65]

well women should learn to keep there legs shut ''dont matter how popular/rich on either side (mostly butt ugly rich men(wankers)) i have no sympathy.. she did what she did and 99.9% of the time its beautiful girls with hidious men...even i wouldnt go with any man i didnt find sexy in my minds eye..money and fame wouldn't of swung it for me

[poorwhitetrashinc]

jimmy and jackie wow i like the gay shington version better though

[piratedjradio]

saqndi shaw

[sunchilde68]

im a fan of this sweetie...

[SmokinMo11]

Horse-shit about the drug thing.If mick had let her alone,she never would've gone down that path.She was as straight as an arrow when she met mick & he knew as he was lureing her away from her life what kind of pile of shit she was gonna step into.She didnt want him,so he got her hooked little by little 2 get her,& he did.This stories nothing new.If ya cant get em..get em hooked,then you'll have em doing flip-flops if u want.After he was thru w/her he left her w/NOTHING.Left her on welfare.

[MrRedFredSaid]

@SmokinMo11 - yep. And then Mick left her when he felt she somehow hurt his image.

[anintals]

@SmokinMo11 she did leave him in the end tho...

[rmgj]

@SmokinMo11 Mick and Keith are great musicians and artist but also egotistic ruthless miserable pricks, excuse the language.

[sydsmith]

@SmokinMo11

I totally agree, Mick and his crowd ruined her. I was born in 1950 and we all loved her.  Hearing her now breaks my heart.

[galorist1]

I was always captivated by this gir/woman---utterly iconic in her singing--she brings back the 60's to me almost more than anyone else has. God bless her for her struggles--and her stick-with-it-ness. No one hurts us---we all choose our own fates. Praise her for what she has been and may she always be as beautiful as I believe she still is! She is timeless!

[kavazci]

It did mickeys career good, having someone with such talent (I'm a bloke, & personally to me, he looks like someone already kicked his face in).

[mandaltby]

Mick did not do anything to her, she chose to do dope, dope takes all of you

[TheCatgirl6]

Also her voice on this song reminds me of the lilting style of Paul McCartney's discovery, Mary Hopkin ("Those Were The Days"). Anyone else hear that?

[KaptKan1]

@TheCatgirl6 Another great "cover" by someone who outdid the writer of the song! Mary Hopkins also sang amazingly well with lots of soul.

[TheCatgirl6]

@KaptKan1 Agreed.

[lhr1967]

VERY NICE

[jillinva]

OMG when i was 12 i wanted to be marianne. still love her music though. at least the early years.

[1tonyota]

is that george carlin i hear at the beggining announcement.

[KaptKan1]

1tonyota, That's the Shindig announcer; George Carlin made a career of mocking guys like that, but at this time he was still an unknown, struggling comic.

[1tonyota]

i dunno george carlin started doing merv and mike douglass shows aboiut this time. his big thing was the indian seargant. and that voice sounds alot like his.

[chuckdee121]

I think Mick was very sad about her heroin addiction. She overcame so much, and really morphed into another sort of icon, and she still is alive and well, just not sweet and twenty!!

[ellesstee]

God she looks like Mary Hartman Mary Hartman.

[janiepdoodle]

good grief. a trained voice. public education, commitment. to excelence. participation. follow through...

[Ic1cle]

Sadly, her 'time of sorrow' was not far away.

[grabledl123]

Very unique even for the 60's. The picture of her on her first album is the cutest face ever.

[london2z]

Jimmy Page and Jackie DeShannon? What a combo! What the world needs now is a whole lotta love...

[12347771]

Legend is that that's Jimmy playing on 'Heart Of Stone' and the 12 string on 'Congratulations'.....either him or Big Jim Sullivan. I am the love child of Jimmy & Jackie at least when I gig.........

[SERUNAVIEJALOCA]

me encantaaaaaa que bella mujer marianne faithfull,mick jagger,thaj majal que buen epoca esa por diossss

my name is vanina im from argentina i like rockandroll

[KaptKan1]

Every song she sang in those days was PERFECT. What a beautiful voice she had then -- not to mention her face and figure, too!

[faustfee]

@KaptKan1 she struggled with anorexia and bad drug addiction, and now she's a woman who won the battle... isn't THAT great?!

[KaptKan1]

She's a fruit loop now. It's nice that she kicked the drugs, but she's still only a role model for How Not To Live. And it's so very sad because she was so talented in the beginning.

[TheCatgirl6]

@KaptKan1 So sorry to hear that, especially watching all this early promise in these lovely clips. She made "As Tears Go By" immortal.

[BlackMonk66]

@TheCatgirl6 Many would say that she surpassed her early promise. She's been a respected artist for over 30 years-more if you include her sixties material, which I think is underrated- and is far more musically adventurous than any of her contemporaries.

One way to measure success is not by how many fans an artist has, but how devoted they are and Marianne's fans revere her.

[TheCatgirl6]

@BlackMonk66 Yes; I am fascinated by the lives she's led, musically speaking.

[fntime]

@faustfee maybe, too little, too late.

[blueticecho]

ALRIGHT JIMMY O !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dylanzx9]

Not one of Mariannes best - even though it was written by Jimmy Page and Jackie DeShannon!

[viednato]

thanks to mick jagger

[Nightfighter74]

I'd like to kick in Mick's face for what he's done to her ... !

[Ic1cle]

I'm with you there, my friend.

Mind you, Mick's face looks like someone has kicked it in already :-)

[estalling]

@Nightfighter74 She left her husband to be with Mick Jagger, quoted as saying "I wanted a Rolling Stone, so I slept with three of them and decided the lead singer was the best bet." She got what she deserved.

[sammy0630]

@Nightfighter74 You mean nobody has kicked his face yet?

[4SherylB]

@sammy0630 - Charlie Watts did once - Keith RIchards tells the story in his book "Life".

[metamorphosis67]

@4SherylB Ron Wood also recalls the same incident in his book though I don't know if he personally witnessed it or not. Mick said to Watts "Where's my drummer? Get over here right now!" in a tone more bossy & arrogant than joking or teasing. Watts punched his face into a plate of spaghetti & kept punching him & was going to throw him out of a second story window when Richards stopped him. He told Mick "Don't ever call me your drummer again, you bastard. You're my fucking singer!" ha ha ha ha

[Love60sMusic]

@metamorphosis67 Go Watts, go!

[GalaxyHorse]

@Nightfighter74 You can't blame Mick for the choices that Marianne made-he did not force her to do anything; just because she looks young and vulnerable here does not mean she was a victim-Marianne knew exactly what she wanted-she knew the Stones boys, she became angry at how Brian Jones was treated and gave a very emotional response by taking an overdose of Barbiturates. Mick actually tried to help her, but she did what she wished, and it is her own journey-she is great now, saw her last year.

[Catherineone]

@GalaxyHorse

Spot on

[tomclowe]

@Nightfighter74

Well said!

[CrankCase08]

@Nightfighter74 He lives on Richmond Hill, Surrey, England. It shouldn't be too difficult to find him. Hehe.

[onir27]

@Nightfighter74 She did it to herself... Why blame others? Sex, Drug, Rock n Roll was everywhere... On 10 November 1965 she gave birth to their son, Nicholas. She then "left her husband to live with Mick Jagger" and told the "New Musical Express": "My first move was to get a Rolling Stone as a boyfriend. I slept with three and decided the lead singer was the best bet." WHO RUINED WHO...???

[gabsylv]

@onir27 SLUT= a woman with the morals of a man

[wamij2]

hot chick ,,, great tits!

[yungjoca]

legend

[freakshowing88]

B E A U T I F U L

[chuckdee121]

Great song. This was also done by Gay Shingleton and is also FANTASTIC!

[jdowd]

sung just like the record? that was joke right? worst case of lip singing i've seen in a long time ... nice looking babe though

[dwpbike]

she sang it just like the record

[didyouknowimawesome]

wow, she's SO GREAT!!

[freakshowing88]

how'd u get to find her?

[didyouknowimawesome]

oh geez i've always known Marianne Faithful!

she is a total inspiration!

[freakshowing88]

same here bud : )

[didyouknowimawesome]

absolutely!!

[freakshowing88]

lmao!!

^_^

[freakshowing88]

THX FOR UPLOADING THIS!!

[KaptKan1]

This was a huge hit on the radio back in the day. It got a LOT of play, and guys like me were constantly calling the stations to request it -- along with all her other songs.

[chuckdee121]

The original version was done by Gaye Shingleton who hosted a british contest called Ready Steady Win. It was released in the states on Warner Brothers records, and it's flip was "I know you're missing her" also a Page/DeShannon song. The songs were arranged and conducted by Jimmy Page, and both sides are fantastic! I think Marianne's version is a cover, but also fantastic!

[skiporr]

This unbelievably beautiful chick cast her lot with Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones and a lifelong drug habit, soon after this release. Incredibly, she managed to come out of it alive and is seemingly in good shape these days. Really a beautiful woman, although her voice went south long ago.

[LizzyDouglas]

@skiporr: Personally I think her voice since "Broken English" is much more impressive than the angelic voice of her early years, that I also like very much, but listen to her "Trouble in Mind" and you'll understand at once what I mean.

Besides that all, Marianne was and still is an extraordinary beautiful woman, always loved her for her music and her beauty.

[skiporr]

I enjoyed the voice on Broken English more when it belonged to Janis Joplin...LOL In honesty, the voice of the early MF matched the face, or vice versa. It was a welcome relief to the alternative bands at the time, which were wonderful, just different than her. Good comment, lady!!!

[manmean]

Supposedly Jimmy Page wrote this for her.

[cassiedewolfe]

Love that song
