I can't get no, oh no no no."
On 1969 Mick sings (and does not complain):
"Yeah, we all need someone we can bleed on
Yeah, and if you want it, baby, well you can bleed on me
Yeah, we all need someone we can bleed on
Yeah, yeah, and if you want it, baby, why don'cha bleed on me"
Is there a "blood pact" link?
I mean: on 66 all this poor boy could get was go back to home (or pub) with "no satisfaction"; on 69 it did not matter anymore and the "river" could flow without restriction...
Gross? (well, since 50% folks would yell YES, but 50% would keep mouth shut... Well, well, it is a matter for another place and hoour, isn´t it?).
Anyway, I think "Let it Bleed" marks the end of a circle (yes, I know it is a math/geometric nonsense, but it a metaphor) which starts on
"repression" (old ways) and ends on "liberation" (new ways).
(And if those three years was a time when the world (the old world of our granparents) was "ruining, burning, being broked for these hairy and dirty boys", I think it is not a simple coincidence.)
I mean, this song is the end of "teenage years" of RS: their next albuns (Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main Street) is much more "adults", musical and lyrically.
So, before the 66 dilemma, now this poor bay decides to accept the terms for obtain his "satisfaction" (in this case, of course, Mick is among those 50% who remains in silent agreement...)
This is why I think this music is superb: it brings an answer to a very difficult question: to grow up or not to grow up.
Is this the right answer?
Hey, it is just a music...
And for music (and art) any answer is better no answer at all.
I do appreciate analytical writing, but so much of what you get from academic writers is esoteric, unsopportable nonsense. It is a shame. There is so much you can write about art by just taking it at face value. You don't need to resort to creepy, psuedo-Freudian banality. I'll bet you have a masters in art? |

huh how about that. I went snooped around and you are right. Apparently he only plays on Country Honk and Live with me. Richards get the credit for all the guitar playing. Learn something new everyday! |

What the...? How dare you taint my birthday with such...well, poor spelling and grammar, for starters! :-) I believe you've also misquoted the lyrics somewhat, thais. Now, I can appreciate that, apparently, English is not your first tongue. I am envious of you to have this much command of another language, if this is the case. You put me to shame on that count. However, I fail to see the point you're trying to make, friend. |

I understand your point, but Fogarty's "bayou" accent somehow came from growing up in El Cerrito, California. I think it's more about your musical influences than it is where you were born. While I was born in the USA, my singing voice sounds more like a Canadian goose. |
