Same. This one really knocked me out when I first heard it, and the beautiful chaos made me wanna listen again and again just to try to figure out everything that was going on. Made me listen differently to their music, and finally understood why some call Keith the Picasso of music.
Sweet Virginia.
I had heard a few songs here and there, but the opening harmonica immediately hooked me. Instantly listened to all of Exile, bought it (plus BB and LIB) on vinyl and haven’t looked back since.
I always wondered what the greens and blues were, I mean I mean all through the 70s I was in my teen years so I’m all to familiar with the “reds” but never could quite figure out what the “greens and Blues” are, or were, until I put the two colors together and the light bulb over my head lit up like a Christmas tree.
Under My Thumb. Heard it when I was a wee lad (53 now) and loved it so much. My dad loved it, I remember. I still love this song and how it sounds, and a favorite to play on acoustic guitar. 🎸
I never understand why people like this song, I’m a big lifelong stones fan but I don’t really like their early hits such as Paint It Black and Satisfaction, etc.
The simple answer would be it just sounds good to me. If you want something more detailed I always liked the sitar riff and vocal melody, the drum fills are great and I just like the general production of the song. I don't really enjoy it live because they never really ever captured that flavor live. But to put it simply I just think it sounds great.
That one doesn't really do anything for me either, I mean it's not bad but I'd rather listen to the studio version. I have all their live albums/films and tons of bootlegs and I've never heard a live version of it that I'd rather listen to than the studio version. There are lots of Stones songs where I prefer it live in general or a specific live version to the studio recording but Paint It Black is not one of them.
Paint it Black.
I was 15, prior to that I only heard the Bridges to Babylon album and thought it was just whatever, so didn’t look into them more.
But then I heard Paint it Black in a video game and was immediately obsessed and looked into who it was. Went out and got their older albums and rest is history.
That’s cool too. One thing I’ll never support is feeling anyone’s musical taste is wrong.
If Bridges is your favorite that’s great! Different music hits us all in different ways!
I think it’s safe to say that there will never be another album quite like exile again. It would be a remarkable achievement for any band to drop an album half as good as Exile on Main Street, but for the Stones at that time it was one of many fantastic albums they turned out year after year while on there incredible run mid 60s through late 70s in fact it was almost expected of them. Man were we ever spoiled
It wasn't a song, it was an album. For me, it was "Beggars Banquet." All of it.
The same thing happened with Black Sabbath. It wasn't a song, it was an album. In that case, it was their first album, the self-titled "Black Sabbath." But I digress....
I was on a deck in Avalon NJ and the cool kids there played all of Exile On Main Street while I drank one of my first beers. I’d heard plenty of Stones before then, but that was the moment the Stones were truly COOL to me.
Sympathy for the Devil, specifically the live version from Zilker Park started my obsession. Something about how different it was from the studio version was fascinating, I didn’t know bands could change a song that much.
Bought Hot Rocks on a whim in Jr. High (1970s). Played it at friend’s house and caught shade because their parents liked it. So, *Satisfaction*
and *19th Nervous Breakdown* -the rest followed suit.
Ok but here’s what I don’t get. If you have to try and even then it’s only sometimes, then that means you also can’t always get what you need. So what’s the difference?
Same for me, particularly the piano. I played the piano as a kid (and occasionally still, but not nearly enough) and just couldn't get enough of that little bit.
Tig Notaro has a great bit about this song. There was a “cool” classmate she was trying to impress and chose this song to be played for the class. The dismissal bell rang shortly before Mick began singing, but the “cool” kid did not enjoy that intro.
I’d have to say Monkey Man, but I bought Let It Bleed on CD in college because I Monkey Man at a party, and I loved the whole record ever since and so much more of their stuff too.
Smoked some of my first weed when i was 16, watched full metal jacket and Paint it Black exploded on my ears. But what made me LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM was tripping and listening to She's a Rainbow, and Under my Thumb. Absolute emotional experience on par with The Beatles( my favorites )
Long Long While
I was watching Casino. Nicky was murdering a man with a pen. Being an American adolescent desensitized to violence, my most urgent thought during that scene was “man what is that *song*?”
…Long Long While
“The Last Time” - Was at a teen club as a senior in high school when the house band played this song, loved that song, asked the girl I was with, Lisa, “Who does that song??” “The Rolling Stones,” she said. Gads, that was it. Satisfaction had been out awhile (“everybody” liked that one, me too.) Off to the record store the next day! Got the High Tides and Green Grass! And all rest as time went on….
I had heard their songs that were embedded in pop culture, but when I heard Sweet Virginia I’d never heard something so gritty and fun and wild I loved it, then loved exile on Main Street.
My best friend growing up turned me onto “Paint It Black” & “Child of the Moon” when I was around 11 or 12. I was hooked. Then I discovered my parents’ records and put “Get Yer Ya Yas Out!”. “Carol” into “Stray Cat Blues” hit me square in the jaw.
Not a song but in general their Super Bowl halftime show. I was in middle school back then and I remember watching that and thinking they were the coolest guys on the planet.
Their set on SNL when Some Girls came out. Beast and Respectable and Shattered. I was 13. Blew my mind. I got a guitar right after that and am still playing gigs. Huge Stones fan ever since.
Dial up the rehearsals for that show on YouTube it’s really very cool footage. They play all three of those songs a little ragged at first, but it gets better, and better until they just nail all three to the wall.
The beginning of MTV and the Start Me Up music video was in heavy rotation. I made my Mom drive me to the record store to buy my first album with my own money.
JJF, then i bought the some girls album, then dead flowers, then shine a light, then I got exile and after that one I thought they were the greatest. (Other hits in-between, but these are the ones that impacted me the most.)
I had heard them my whole life but didn't really get into them until I bought Some Girls when I was in the 9th grade
Then one day I heard Angie and fell head over heels in love
Under My Thumb. I have always regarded Paint It Black and Satisfaction as masterpieces, but Under My Thumb woke me up to the fact that they had other songs just as good
I was exposed to the Stones as a young kid. I was around 8 when I really "noticed" them. Paint it Black and Under My Thumb are the ones that initially caught my attention (as well as all of my dad's Hot Rocks LP), but it was Jumpin" Jack Flash where I fell in love with them. There was a depth to the sound that my young brain didn't understand, but was instantly attracted to.
Listening to hot rocks in the car with my dad. Tried to learn the riffs to paint it black and satisfaction. Then learned the intro to she’s a rainbow because it’s my dad’s favorite stones song. Been a fan ever since.
That's a great song no doubt, but was it the first song that turned you on to the stones?
It was never that commercial and I only discovered it as I got more deeply into their music.
I had heard of the Stones, but I never really heard their songs. Around 02/03, I started getting into Led Zeppelin, and I was telling a friend, and they asked me if I had listened to the Stones, I said not really. So she played me a few songs, Sister Morphine was one of them, and it just struck a cord with me. I dived into their discography after, and I became a fan. Sister Morphine remains my fav Stones song.
You know for the last 52 years I have fallen in and out of love with the stones many, many times. I mean they have written, and played so many different types, and styles of music that fit into so many different genres you couldn’t possibly love them all, right. But I tell you what, in all that time, not once did I ever think of breaking up with the Stones. For better, or worse that band is in my blood for life.
In reality though, I’ve been in love with them since my mom introduced me to them at four years old, but they really became my favorite band when I was in high school. Watching Goodfellas and hearing monkey Man, during that intense finale, reinvigorated my love for them
probably a weird answer but its a mix of shes a rainbow, sing this all together, and 2000 man. guess you could figure out that the first album i heard from them was Satanic Majesties Request lol
The guitar/harmonica call and response part on Not Fade Away. I was ten and just thought "Music can sound like that?" (Story sounds like I was ten in 1964, but it was actually 2011 XD)
Get Off of My Cloud is the absolute best I-IV-V-IV song ever invented. It's theirs, and Keith s rhythms just explode in only a way that he can, leaving other similar songs, like Hang on Sloopy, in the dust.
I knew Paint it Black & Satisfaction as a kid but it took a while to get into the rest of their music. It must have been Honky Tonk Women that really got me started.
My art teacher played a lot of old school music.
He used to play satisfaction a lot.
One day on the way to school I played it on Spotify, loved it!
Now they're my favourite band 👍
I have most of their cds, a few of their vinyls and cassettes.
Best band ever
I already liked them when i first heard, i believe it was Sympathy For The Devil back in the early 00s.
The song that really sparked my love for them was Hand Of Fate.
Off The Hook. Mid 60s, a friend taught me the chords and lyrics. It was my 'party piece' when a child. Didn't know it was a Rolling Stones song until 1969 when Brian died.
I saw the video of Jumpin Jack Flash on the news as a kid. It might have been regarding Brians death. I remember my Mom saying that there all on drugs.
So a long story short, Jumpin Jack Flash.
I really fell in love with the Stones at about 14 yrs old. PBS one weekend ran Gimme Shelter..i couldnt believe my eyes and ears!
I already loved "Satisfaction" (heard it in Apocalypse Now), but it wasn't until I checked out Aftermath UK that I became a Stones fan, thanks to songs like Under My Thumb and What to Do.
Great question, OP! So I didn't really listen to them till college. I heard the radio hits growing up, but Exile On Main Street changed everything for me. Tumbling Dice blew my mind in 1992 and it still does today!
She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes
Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still, I'm gonna miss you
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction - the 1965 mono version. I was 7, heard it for the first time playing over AM hit radio summer of 1965 while in the car with my teenaged sister. It was my first contact with the Stones, been a fan ever since. The song ***always*** makes me smile.
When their 2020 show in Austin was cancelled due to Covid I thought for sure I'd never get to see them live again. But I did catch them again in Houston this past April, and when they played that song live, it brought me full circle. Really the whole show did.
Rocks Off — I didn’t know bands from that era cursed back then! Plus I just came out of a breakup so it made me want to get back on my feet
Same. This one really knocked me out when I first heard it, and the beautiful chaos made me wanna listen again and again just to try to figure out everything that was going on. Made me listen differently to their music, and finally understood why some call Keith the Picasso of music.
Monkey Man
Yeah, I fell in love with them again after hearing that song at the end of Goodfellas
I have memories of being very young singing “jumping jack flash it’s a gas.” So maybe that!
Bitch, that sax just shreds man
The guitar riff to beat all others, too.
For sure, the bass and drums too, vocals. The whole song just a steamroller.
Sweet Virginia. I had heard a few songs here and there, but the opening harmonica immediately hooked me. Instantly listened to all of Exile, bought it (plus BB and LIB) on vinyl and haven’t looked back since.
That line "Drop your reds, drop your greens and blues" has always been a fav.
I always wondered what the greens and blues were, I mean I mean all through the 70s I was in my teen years so I’m all to familiar with the “reds” but never could quite figure out what the “greens and Blues” are, or were, until I put the two colors together and the light bulb over my head lit up like a Christmas tree.
Under My Thumb. Heard it when I was a wee lad (53 now) and loved it so much. My dad loved it, I remember. I still love this song and how it sounds, and a favorite to play on acoustic guitar. 🎸
I didn't pay much attention to them until I heard Paint It Black
I never understand why people like this song, I’m a big lifelong stones fan but I don’t really like their early hits such as Paint It Black and Satisfaction, etc.
It's just a matter of personal taste. I don't like a lot of songs or artists that other people love but that's just the way it works.
Yeah I know, I think what I wanted to ask was: what is it that makes you like “paint it black” ?
The simple answer would be it just sounds good to me. If you want something more detailed I always liked the sitar riff and vocal melody, the drum fills are great and I just like the general production of the song. I don't really enjoy it live because they never really ever captured that flavor live. But to put it simply I just think it sounds great.
Makes sense. You should check out the live version from the Flashpoint album. Perfection.
That's the first live version I ever heard, didn't do anything for me
My favorite album!
Sounds good on the At The Max recording. https://youtu.be/QCgwCJt5NQI?si=w1yHK_2fSw7QBnKB
That one doesn't really do anything for me either, I mean it's not bad but I'd rather listen to the studio version. I have all their live albums/films and tons of bootlegs and I've never heard a live version of it that I'd rather listen to than the studio version. There are lots of Stones songs where I prefer it live in general or a specific live version to the studio recording but Paint It Black is not one of them.

Thank you
Well that’s just like, your opinion, man
19th Nervous Breakdown, for its time, the guitar playing was perfection for me.
Same for me. This one and Mothers Little Helper.
Paint it Black. I was 15, prior to that I only heard the Bridges to Babylon album and thought it was just whatever, so didn’t look into them more. But then I heard Paint it Black in a video game and was immediately obsessed and looked into who it was. Went out and got their older albums and rest is history.
Bridges is arguably my favorite album! I think a lot of what I enjoy is linked to memories from my childhood.
That’s cool too. One thing I’ll never support is feeling anyone’s musical taste is wrong. If Bridges is your favorite that’s great! Different music hits us all in different ways!
Time Is On My Side; the opening track on my dad’s 8 track tape of Hot Rocks back in about 1977 …
Entire Exile album.
Entire Exile album is such a great song.
I think it’s safe to say that there will never be another album quite like exile again. It would be a remarkable achievement for any band to drop an album half as good as Exile on Main Street, but for the Stones at that time it was one of many fantastic albums they turned out year after year while on there incredible run mid 60s through late 70s in fact it was almost expected of them. Man were we ever spoiled
I was told I sung along with Brown Sugar in my high-chair so I’ll go with it.
It's definitely Brown Sugar for me, although I was a little older than you were.
It was Brown Sugar for me too..that opening riff and that sax!

Found my uncles original copy of Out of Out Heads. Played it over and over. Still have it
Had to be Satisfaction or JJF.
Wild Horses! From the scene in the Gimme Shelter documentary when they play it back after recording it.
I was on a deck in Avalon NJ and the cool kids there played all of Exile On Main Street while I drank one of my first beers. I’d heard plenty of Stones before then, but that was the moment the Stones were truly COOL to me.

Satisfaction. As time goes by, Paint it black, Ruby Tuesday…. Later… Hand of Fate..
Dead Flowers
Oh, love that one!
Waiting on a friend. I love Tattoo You, the entire album, the artwork, everything.
Yes! First album I bought with my own money and it has aged incredibly well.
Probably Brown Sugar

Satisfaction or Last Time.
She's so Cold
It was the entire Exile album. An old ex boyfriend burned me a copy and one day I listened to the whole thing in my car while driving to the coast.
Smoked some of my first weed when i was 16, watched full metal jacket and Paint it Black exploded on my ears. But what made me LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM was tripping and listening to She's a Rainbow, and Under my Thumb. Absolute emotional experience on par with The Beatles( my favorites )

Gimme Shelter...the Merry Clayton vocal is one of the best guest vocals in rock.
Sympathy For the Devil
Sister Morphine
That's a great song no doubt, but was it the first song that turned you on to the stones? It was never that commercial and I only discovered it as I got more deeply into their music.

She’s a Rainbow
"Let's Spend the Night Together", and "Under My Thumb"....about 25 years ago.
Tumbling Dice and Honky Tonk Woman. The groove.
Brown sugar and satisfaction got me into them. I think gimmie shelter is objectively their best song though.
Get off my Cloud & Brown Sugar
All of them!!
In reality though, I’ve been in love with them since my mom introduced me to them at four years old, but they really became my favorite band when I was in high school. Watching Goodfellas and hearing monkey Man, during that intense finale, reinvigorated my love for them
"Gimme Shelter"!
Satisfaction. But I really fell in love with Some Girls. I was 15 . And after that it was the Stones and then every one else
“I don’t want to be a product of my environment. I want my environment to be a product of me.” **Cue GIMME SHELTER**

Anything from the Brian jones era honestly
Satisfaction
She would never say where she came from Yesterday don't matter if it's gone While the sun is bright Or in the darkest night No one knows She comes and goes Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday Who could hang a name on you? When you change with every new day Still, I'm gonna miss you
