I hear the sweet, sweet sounds of Heaven
Fallin' down, fallin' down to this earth
I hear the sweet, sweetest sounds of Heaven
Driftin' down, driftin' down to this earth
Bless the Father, bless the Son, hear the sound of the drums
As it echoes through the valley and it bursts, yeah
Let no woman or child go hungry tonight
Please protect us from the pain and the hurt, yeah
I smell the sweet
Sweet scents of Heaven
Comin' down (Comin' down)
Tumblin' down (Tumblin' down) to the earth (From the earth)
I hear the sweet sounds (Sweet sounds)
The sweet sounds of children (Ooh, the sweet sounds)
And they're praisin' (Praisin')
The land of their birth (No)
No, I'm not, not goin' to Hell
In some dusty motel
And I'm not, not goin' down
In the dirt (Yes, yes, yes)
I'm gonna laugh (I'm gonna laugh)
I'm gonna cry (I'm gonna cry)
Eat the bread, drink the wine
'Cause I'm finally, finally quenchin'
My thirst (Yeah)
You can't have a light without a little shadow, yeah
Always need a target for your bow and arrow
I want to be drenched in the rain of your heavenly love, oh, yeah, c'mon
Let the music (Let the music) play loud (Play loud)
Let it burst (Let it burst) through the clouds (Through the clouds)
And we all feel the heat
Of the sun, yeah
Yeah, let us sing, let us shout (Let us shout)
Let us all stand up proud
Let the old still believe that they're young, yeah
Sweet, sweet sound
Sounds so sweet (Oh, it's so sweet)
Sounds so sweet (So sweet)
Heaven, Heaven
Down, falling down (Falling down)
To this earth
I heard the sweet sounds of Heaven
Play me something, Stevie
I smell the sweet, sweet scents
Of Heaven
Comin' down (Comin' down), comin' down (Comin' down)
To the earth (From the earth)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yes, c'mon
Ooh, c'mon, c'mon, yeah, yeah
Hear the gods laughing from above
Of Heaven
Fallin' down, fallin' down to this earth
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Let me lay down and sleep
Heaven, Heaven
Fallin' down, fallin' down to this earth
I hear the sweet, sweetest sounds of Heaven
Driftin' down, driftin' down to this earth
Bless the Father, bless the Son, hear the sound of the drums
As it echoes through the valley and it bursts, yeah
Let no woman or child go hungry tonight
Please protect us from the pain and the hurt, yeah
I smell the sweet
Sweet scents of Heaven
Comin' down (Comin' down)
Tumblin' down (Tumblin' down) to the earth (From the earth)

Gaga meets The Rolling Stones was inevitable. They’re made of the same stuff. It says a lot about her that she’s up to them and it says a lot about them that they’re still this great. Sublime, I love it!
This is very nice
The Stones have put out a lot of schlock through the years but this really rocks. I gather that's Lady Gaga singing with Mick--wow.
Starting this off at 8. One of their best songs in recent years...

Thanks BillG for adding this. It’s very good
You go Lady G. Great to hear you with the Stones.
Watched A Star is Born again last night. I cry tears of joy every time you sing. Bradley Cooper is one lucky man.

Not your typical Stones composition, but pretty darn good
Just amazed they can even get out of bed much less put this together!

Play more tunes from this album. It is excellent!!
Crazy wonderful.
Great song...Bad mix for Gaga. Her voice is much better than what is represented here.
A solid 10 from the Portland (UK) jury!
The best song on this new album, IMO. Very nice!

Bravo boys! You might make a career of music if you can keep producing tracks like this, fer sure...
just wonderful!
Love it, absolutely love it. Lady Gaga, Stevie Wonder and the Rolling Stones! I'd give it a 10 if Charlie Watts was playing drums.
I also have to agree that this edited (5:03 instead of 7:22 in length) version has more cohesive snap to it.
Thank you RP, for the music!

I was wondering when this would make it to your playlist.
Inspired. Those voices were made for each other. Old guys rock!
