  • I have good memories i guess .. And when I get older I bet those are the only things i will have. So I'll remember that comment @MrCagekicker ;)

  • Well life is bullshit I get picked on, my parents hate me ( I shit you not), and I have no friends.... But i still manage to have a smile on my face. XP (sry for the depressing comment, I'm just facing reality

  • thumbs up if you're listening to this in 2012!!!:)

  • I need those little yellow pills right now.

  • busque esa cancion por meses!!!!!!!!!!!!11

  • what a drag it is getting old.`I had partied so much from the mid 70"s till a few months ago. I was so dilusional I thought I would be a freespirit 21 yr old for life. I am now sober shocked and almost suicidal l!!!

  • @frank02111 dude, just because ya quit the partying doesnt mean that life aint a party, cause in the right circles, it is. dont croak yerself cause ya woke up, it may take some time to adjust to the light. just try to find the beauty in sobriety and in nature. read more, and maybe pick up some new friends.

  • @MrCagekicker thanks for the support it meabns alot !

  • @MrCagekicker Ya you are right I shouldn"t kick myself to the curb just yet for getting old and wrinkled,its just a fact of life. Well lets see Mick and Keith seem to have no problembo getting young hot looking chicks, I guess I must be optomistic!

  • @MrCagekicker Nice and kind comment, and oh so true. There are more that woke up after a very long time. Life is still beautiful, just like you say, take a walk on the beach, listen to the sound of the waves, enjoy music, talk to people, there are so many lonely ppl that would love a chat every now and than. There are so many nice things to do in life, you don't have to be sedated all the time anymore........Does not mean you cannot cherish some great memories, not all was bad.

  • @frank02111

  • This is the bass Rolling Stones song. Bill Wyman's bass still sends tingles up and down my spine.

  • "Kids are different today" - how true is it....

  • I love the cynicism in the Stones songs, it certainly is a ruddy drag getting old.

  • @nycpubsWhat a great tune. Lets spend a minute thinking of rstp78,nycpubs and superjumback!All the same sick,drug addict, Momma's lump of lard. I call him the drug mule. WHOA, lets hope he see's this

  • @kingslndflyr DUDE - haha, apologies. This is what happens when you work in an open plan office and some wise ass colleague jumps on your machine. Hard to prevent!

  • have you noticed that the songs by the bands a long time ago now, are shity but the songs when they were in ther prime are awsome.

  • @jtbrulz1 i noticed you're retarded

  • @jtbrulz1 the rolling stones still make good music, have you listened to a bigger bang?

  • :O rolon!!!!!!

  • remember when this song came out they knew todays reality we are good people we don't do drugs but everything the doc gives us in stead of pot

  • THE BEST BAND EVER.

  • great song for all generations!

  • This is about the early benzos...valium/libirum...in the 60's they were marketed widely and prescribed widely without much thought on doctors behalf...stress? Heres some. Works hard? Heres some. Busy schedule...heres some.

  • This was back when B Jones was at his best long before they where acting and sounding like niggers.

  • im 15 and love this.

  • I'm in addiction studies at college. Yellow pill sounds like Valium, but there was actually a barbiturate (very similar to diazapam) called Nembutal that was called mother's little helper. I don't think Valium was actually invented yet..

  • @asahearts1 Yeah, it's Nembutal. Nembutal is a yellow pill taken as a stress reliever. It's similar to diazepam (Valium) in effects, but belongs to a different chemical class (Valium is a benzo, and Nembutal is a barbiturate). Nembutal is also called pentobarbitone.

  • Next to Tumbling Dice and Star star this is the best stones song.

  • Fuckin' Bromazepam , now i go in hospital......fuck

    

  • That's pretty bad when a bunch of drugged up rock stars sing about the dangers of a medication that doctors throw out like Motrin.

  • it could be a real sitar. The video of Paint It Black has him playing one off on his own side stage, distanced.

  • @sydferret Brian Jones played a 12 string with a slide, and it was then compressed for that effect.

  • @sixsixseveneight I dont know how to verify it but that part....da da da,da da dah,da da da da da da dah......man that sounds like Brian pluckin his sitar.......anybody else out there have an opinion on this,or can look it up or something.....you could be right there six,but even if its keith,its still a great little riff:).......

  • the pills are valium. heh. Go figure. 

  • One time I overdosed on Valium....Apparently I went on a blackout and awoke surrounded by garden gnomes.....I guess the 12 blues + some mexican mud put me on a mission stealing garden crap...Go figure?

  • @DRGONZO714 heh, after those pills many people are on nicking spree. Weird. The most important thing is not to mix Valium with alcohol.

  • dead by 30. 4 months to go

    

  • Taste more cunts is an overdose.

  • love this ong

  • Another thought occurred to me and it's a "sick" one: Brian Jones will never have to worry about getting old. 

  • Thorazine. 

  • happy mothers day all :)

  • you can't die with benzos alone. trufax.

    on the other hand this songs old as sin, may as well be barbiturates. they were basically very dangerous benzodiazepines. sounds just as house wife ish as valium.

  • where are the lyrics you fucking piece of shit, cunt

  • @PubePuller1 good one mate, use your eyes

  • @ashfinn2018 I really try using my eyes, but still can't see them, did you write them somewhere cunt? thanks for replying so fast haha

  • @ashfinn2018 finally saw them, I'm use have them displayed on the video, anyways, don't take the hole cunt personal, it's the internet

  • @PubePuller1 he's right, its the internet!

  • @PubePuller1 got me

  • man this is great compared to the shit they play these days ...

  • @xXGam3r4L1feXx Trye, but there is good music out there if your the type to search for it. Look up RHCP live at slane castle and watch californication. The opening jam is awesome. But all in all the classic's ARE still around for a reason.

  • @xXGam3r4L1feXx Amen !

  • LOVE Brian's sitar on this 1 and Paint it Black....A new,interesting rock instument fresh on the scene back then...but the stones substitute it with keyboards in concert for some reason......

  • @porcupineinteruptus Probably cause they don't care for brian jones it seems. Its really sad but they hate him. They wouldn't be there if it wasn't for him.

  • @porcupineinteruptus they did that cz no one can play the sittar like, may he rest in peace, Brian Jones

  • @porcupineinteruptus I don't think there's sitar on this one, it's an electric 12 strings guitar (vox?) / and I doubt the intro of Paint it Black is played on sitar either (there's some on the verses and the breaks only)

  • @porcupineinteruptus Might be the cost of a good sitar and how difficult they are to transport. Also, it could be a lack of an extra bassist. *shrug*

    Early Stones (esp '65 '66) should be inducted in the rnr Hall of Fame as a separate entity.

  • @porcupineinteruptus just curious, did the Stones really use a sitar? or was it an electric guitar played through an effects box? either way it sounds great every time I hear this tune :)

  • @lvmaniak wikipedia says it is a compressed 12-string electric played with a slide

  • @lvmaniak 12 string with a slide sir

  • "Though she's not really ill,there's a little yellow pill"...........had 1 recently but they are blue nowadays"....;P

  • DOCTOR PLEASE...SOME MORE OF THESE... !

  • she is stressed...let go

  • ATTENTION Fans of The Stones! Please HERE ME OUT. I'm in a band. Were just trying to bring good music like this back into the world. we work as hard as we can. and we CAN NOT catch a break.

    Help us make Rock 'n"Roll the #1 again. Please take a small piece of your time to check out our independent Music Video for our song Red-Light Revolver. Let us know what you think. if you like it tell your friends about it. Good and Bad Comments are welcome.

  • What a drag it is gettin old, ain't that the fuckin truth Jagger and co.

  • @AcousticDiamondP

    It does help when you're fabulously wealthy.

  • @sweetcurmudgeon Well it sure takes the sting out of being poor and old.

  • @AcousticDiamondP your turn next

  • @6firebird6 It will all be our turn sooner or later.

  • @AcousticDiamondP Gettin old sure beats the alternative!

  • @AlexNeilEzell I make you right on that one, lol.

  • @AcousticDiamondP Except hes still in better shape than most people half his age. No one can match what he does on stage.

  • @JaysGOP Could not agree more with that comment my friend, infact I would go as far to say that I doubt there is anyone half Jagger's age who exudes the energy and vitality he displays when he is on stage.

  • Ah,......check your chemistry. That's diazapam, one of the benzodazpines, of which Librium was the prototype. No excuse for that kind of ignorance in the day of Google,.....unless you've been taking too many benzodiazapines, which been have known to make people cognitively sluggish.

    Any drug can be abused and benzodiapines have many beneficial uses. The sins of the pharmaceutical industry are much more in the area of their pricing than anything else.

  • Ah,.... first comment,......check your chemistry. That's diazapam, one of the benzodazpines, of which Librium was the prototype. No excuse for that kind of ignorance in the day of Google,.....unless you've been taking too many benzodiazapines, which been have known to make people cognitively sluggish.

  • Fucking La Roch who speculated how to fabricate a drug that made millons depended on them; addiction - and is called Valium (Benzodiacin). The executive physician/bioengineer exposed this crime by La Roch and went to the press; then he was threatened to be assassinate, so he escaped to UK, where he still is under police protection, as far as I have heard.

    La Roch should be paying huge compensation for the molestation they did to so many......

  • This song is about Valium. You will find your chosen form of reliance. They range from beer, weed, etc, and more gruesome from there on up. I do find it an ironic attack at the "older" generation at the time for doing the same or worse than they were blaming on the mid-60's youngsters...

  • I must admit that I can relate to this song, though I'm not proud of the fact! Peace, BobbyK

  • Funny how this is the sixties. Now, mothers put their children on "mother's little helper."

  • It shouldn't be a drag getting old! I know I'm only 18 so I guess it's easier said than done, but I look at my parents, who are depressed about getting old because it means "they can't have fun", which makes them unwilling to go out there and have fun. Maybe the limitiations of age are more limitations of the mind than the body. Besides, age=experience=wisdom, well, at least for most people ;)

  • My favorite Stones song!

  • Ironically, its about Valium, and lets face it -- Valium's killed far fewer people than heroin, which the Stones would soon develop a taste for. Still, this song perfectly describes the prescription-addict, and it still bears listening to.

  • this song makes me laugh

  • BLACK BEAUTIES (speed)... shhh

  • i love this song, ty 4 the lyrics, btw, it's every, not evry (u cant spell lol)

  • @somonelse666 btw its ev'ry, not every(that's how the stones wrote it)

  • @32heyjoe srry, i didn't do much reserch did i lol

  • it´s funny cause this song is about drugs

  • Comment removed

  • @ilovepantera97 no shit

  • I'm studying the 1950s in history class, and how suburbian life affected women, and my teacher referenced this song. Yay for the Stones! :)

  • Still relevant today. Self-righteous suburbanites rely on pills to stay sane, then talk about how awful the drug culture is. Just replace valium with Prozac.

    The more things change, the more they stay the same.

  • This should have been (dr) HOUSE's Favorite song LOL...but he's not allowed to take PILLS on TV anymore...the DEA and AMA stopped his TV pill popping...UNDERDOG suffered the same fate in the 70's ..all his pill poppings were CUT OUT...what bullcrap LOL

  • reading all these post about pills and listen to this song reminds me sooo much of my Oxy/ Xantix days....

  • Theres a little yellow pill (Valium)

  • could hear this a thousand times and it never gets boring

  • ooooooooooooooook. wow. I love the Rolling Stones....the song is supposed to be ironic nd sarcastic....listen...really listen to the words. 

  • @lene2376 carisprodol/somas are the shit with a few beers lol

  • Finally some good heroine at the streets again...Still greatful for my methadone. Just call Dr. Brewer. (he has luckely lost his license now, that motherfucker). But yeah, I am an addict, and I am not ashaimed, not proud. It`s an disease. I don`t ever think I get well, so... Yes, I`d like a big box of Karisoprodol now. So dr. please. cool text. This song always remind me of ... drugs. And doctors. I am in withdrawal of clonezepam. Oh, hell. A drug I`ve never been very found of. Better than none.

  • @lene2376 I've been where you are....and yes withdrawal is BITCH..I kick in jail the worst place ever, now Im 6 months clean off of "H" and Oxys, I admit I crave it all the time, but its not so strong any more...But if I can get clean anyone can...You just got to want it enough, if you can be selfish enough to get into it you gotta be selfish enough to get out of it. best of luck to you man!

  • @TheVictorianorton First time it hit me hard was on a family vacation. I packed enough for 1 week, we stayed for 2. Imagine my panic at learning this too late. I dosed up when I got home, but I got clean a short time after. Been clean 2 years now, and there still isn't a day that goes by i don't at least think of it. I feel much more alive now. I just have to keep my mind sharp, and stay vigilant. I'll never relapse.

  • @nate556 good for you man!! I feel the same way...never again..I'll never numb life again! Im more content now then I have ever been in my life. :)

  • @lene2376 Than why are you listening to this song?

  • @lene2376 Clonazepam withdrawal sux ass, but at least it won't kill you. Stay away from the H.

  • @briant420 not to be a dick but you CAN die from benzo withdrawl seizures,sickness,etc. Heroin withdrawl WILL NOT kill you although you will want to die. 

  • Finally some good heroine at the streets again...

  • Eight people didn't take their pills this morning.

  • great song!:)

  • This isn't about Valium... this song was written in 1966, when it was believed you couldn't get a Valium overdose. This was about NEMBUTAL, which works like Valium and comes in yellow capsules.

  • Very insightful, like so many Stones songs.

  • benzos baby!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Actually this song is about a troll that lived in Mick's pants. The troll helped him when he was feeling bad. Many times it jumped right out of his bum and said "Micky please!Have some more of these!"(These) meant songs that were to be released from the little troll. Mick took the troll's advice and now he lives rich and famous. . Of course everyone will tell you its about pills, but its really about trolls. Its too bad trolls sold out and now they just roam youtube. They once had a purpose.

  • @kowtpr187 I see what you did there.

  • what's the little yellow pill?

  • @lankinator24 barbiturates (at least at the time the song was written)

  • @lankinator24 barbiturates

  • @lankinator24 a small big yellow pill

  • I just did 5mlg!
