Yeah (it has to do with Marlon's birth),'cause I knew we were going to have to go to America and start work again, to get me off me ass, and not really wanting to go away. It was a very delicate moment, the kid's only two months old, and you're goin' away. Millions of people do it all the time but still ...
Keith Richards, 1971
I remember we sat around originally doing this with Gram Parsons, and I think his version came out slightly before ours. Everyone always says it was written about Marianne but I don't think it was; that was all well over by then. But I was definitely very inside this piece emotionally. This is very personal, evocative, and sad. It all sounds rather doomy now, but it was quite a heavy time.
Mick Jagger, 1993
I played one of Keith's Gibson acoustic guitars in what they call a Nashville tuning. The guitar is tuned exactly the same way as regular tuning, but you use all first and second strings and you tune them in octaves. It's kind of like playing a 12-string guitar without the other six strings. That's the best way to describe it. I think I played a 12-string too. Keith played the electric solo on Wild Horses.
Mick Taylor, 1979
It's back!!!
This had once 207,973 hits, but there's no guarantee it'll stay long enough to achive that mass of views.
So watch it now or cry later ...

I can't figure him out.
He's like a nodding acquaintance and I see him most frequently in mirrors.
You'd overlook him in an empty room but he'd grab your attention in a crowd.
His full name has 13 letters; therefore nobody will ever find him.
He's a real nowhere man...
666 + 777 = 1443 / 13 = 111
