The song "Black Limousine" is one of the few Rolling Stones' songs credited to Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood (though incidentally one of two featured on ''Tattoo You''). "Black Limousine" is a hard blues number (described as "fast mid-tempo blues of no specific nature" by Jagger) which heavily hearkens back to the Rolling Stones' earliest recordings from their ABCKO/ London albums. Using a heavy bellow, Jagger delivers his lines and spells out the growing rifts in an aging romance: On the lyrics, Richards said in 1981, "That song does have a more generous view of relationships with women... I guess, because the women in our lives at the moment have made a change in our attitudes toward it. I guess because everything that comes out from the Stones is just as it comes out... That's how we used to feel about it, and that's how we feel about it now ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
