Brown Sugar - Rolling Stones

[@Diablo3838]

Probably THE best live cut of Brown Sugar!...Mick's voice kicks ASS! Truly, The Greatest Rock n' Roll Band in the World!

[@alomaalber6514]

it has been said that the Rolling Stones lyrics is like reading a newspaper or history book, this is one example, but YES, very danceable and some of the best percussion ever! The controversy of the lyrics but the beat has aged well!

[@JoeTufanoTheMovieGuy]

The Rolling Stones are gods! Arguably the best rock band on the planet! I was born in the 90's, but I listen to anyting my Mom, Dad, Aunts and Uncles listened to when they were kids, and I always will listen to the Stones as long as I live. My sister listens to all the crap they blare on the radio these days like Lady Gaga, Kesha, Justin Bieber, Jonas Brothers, and Miley Cyrus. UUUGGGGHHHH! If only some kids today were more open minded when it comes to bands like the Stones.

[@Tartaglia331]

Excellent playlist ! I was 16 in 1969 and was at they're free concert at Altamont and the Hellss Angles were in charge. What day that was. I came in from behind the stage and was right up in front of stage. These guys can still put on great show 50 years later. If you've never seen them in concert, don't miss your last chance. 50 years ! THE BEST !

[@tannerking8299]

11 years later, im 22 and just saw them last month. Theyre still rocking SIXTY YEARS LATER

[@ColonelClunge]

the fact that this only got to number two proves how good music was back then

[@cherrybomb2600]

It was #1 in L.A. for weeks. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@rebeccawagner4167]

I love Brown Sugar this song 🎵 is amazing 🎉🎉. Mick looks amazing in pink. He has all the moves🎉🎉

[@russelvpbqueenieign3152]

The Rolling Stones my favorite band EVER!!! amazing still , this happened 40 years ago and is an all time classic

[@Nicomagic6]

Jagger - the ultimate frontman. What a great voice.

[@71mansfield]

this was #1 in the UK on the day I was born.... always loved it!!

[@ssesf]

I remember listening to this song back in the 70s. I recorded my elder sister's LP record on my 7" tape-recorder. But over a decade ago I threw out all my 7" tapes as they "go bad", that is the magnetism on the tapes is passed on with time (not a problem with CDs). The Akai also got dumped. Fortunately, I now have KZbin when I want to listen to Rolling Stones' Brown Sugar!.

[@Sauceywalker]

I can remember when I heard this song a long, long time ago....I had been with a friend at her house and she was pretty sad about her life and I was helping her through some tough moments. She left...and I was still at her house, and she had music playing...when, all of a sudden, I heard THIS song.......and there, in her living room, all alone, I cranked this song up full blast and danced my ASS off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome feeling. I left her house with a ton of GOOD vibes.

[@gofigures2004]

Simply the best rock-n-roll front man, EVER!!!!

[@sth50100]

amazing still , this happened 40 years ago and is an all time classic

[@kevinhughes1659]

this rocks. this is the stones when they were at their absolute best--71"-72". they have a great sound on this live performance.

[@dmzabo3914]

Oh yes it is champ.

[@gterry4556]

kevin hughes live voical not music

[@noelmcmurray6147]

Recorded backing track and yes, LIVE vocals. Besides, bands couldnt set up all equipment and soundcheck etc. would be hours in between each performance...thus bring your backing track and sing it live. Think it was a union rule at BBC - could you imagine the BBC staff setting up amps, drums, gtr's etc and then getting sound desk EQ's ...nah! Wonderful live singing and performance from Mick. .... Then straight off to Villa Nellcote on French Riviera to create another masterpiece album; Exile on Main St. [those years from 1968 through 1975 IORR were truly their best. Thank you to Mick Taylor in a big way]

[@FunnyLittleChap]

woo hoo, such a brilliant song, from one of the best American bands of all time.

[@adnaruto25]

oh boy ! i completly agree with you , i always come back to the good old Stones ......

[@bupe007]

Long live the Stones! Pure dedication to the music! Greetings from Vienna, Austria

[@joyceeslillad]

I defy anyone to listen to this and stay absolutely still

[@PepperWhite62]

It should be a federal crime to put an ad in front of any Rolling Stones song on KZbin.

[@reginacrayton7249]

lol

[@RTT8001]

40 years ago this year, and still sounds as fresh and kick ass as ever. Amazing clip. They were the greatest band ever. Real attitude, not fake BS like today.

[@janmaessen9879]

I love the Stones for over 40 years now and it still is getting stronger.The best rock n roll band forever and ever ever ever....

[@Ben-xl7fq]

Great Song!

[@lorettaplacentra2387]

Love the chicken dance in the pink satin suit ! Whoa brown suga !

[@unamckillen7125]

My college years distilled. Every party I went to we danced to this. Now I unpack the lyrics and, oh dear. It is misogyny distilled and possibly racism. Still can't resist it.

[@janetbird5004]

mauss1986 Why does everybody think every single song by the Stones is about drugs? I am not being sarcastic, just wondering. Mick Jagger, who wrote the lyrics, may have dabbled in drugs like most of the young musically talented occupants of planet earth in those days but for almost his entire career he has been a health nut. A junkie as a rule is not capable of "moves like Jagger". I don't get it.

[@mitchellspindell589]

My exact problem; how to confess this to my leftest comrades?

[@mitchellspindell589]

Janet Bird "Down on your knees" about heroin?

[@mitchellspindell589]

Janet Bird I mean, Mauss.

[@janetbird5004]

Good points - Mitchell Spindell I mean ! I think Mick gave up most of his misogynist ways along with the drugs. That, I think was a combination of huge ego and his badass persona that made him filthy rich. How much was image and how much was Mick is hard to say I guess. I never met the guy. Seems like a hell of a nice guy to me, all of the Stones do. It's like they still can't figure out what they did right !

[@DiedrichKnickerbocker1783]

I do believe this is the real deal rock 'n roll. Great stuff, classic even.

[@TalismanTImes]

I've been listening to this tune for a long long time, and I don't think there has ever been any other recording in History that has created as much long term controversy as this one has. People have been bodaciously fighting over this song's lyrics for well over 40 years now, hell it didn't take Moses that long to find the promised land. Here's to the next 40 years, I'm sure it will be just as interesting, this one never seems to get old.

[@michelneault7273]

Really like the sound of Keith Richard Guitar...

[@plunderedmysoul.679]

the best verion of this song ever i listen

[@SneakyJem]

I think this song made me love black girls even more

[@Frag-Drache-Offiziel]

Why? Its about Heroin, Boy😅

[@turockandar]

Ironically last night I was at Chris Jagger's concert and went out to dinner with him and his band before the show....so I am more in a Stones type of mind frame these days...there is music for all tastes for sure ...there are about 20 Stone songs I love with Beast of Burden high on the list---"There's one thing buuuube I don't understand...you keep on a tellin me I ain't your type of man...ain't I rich enough...ain't I tough enough..." brilliant:)

[@TheCornishCockney]

well said Sir ! i love the Beatles but the Stones WERE and still ARE the meaning of rock n roll.quite simply,the greatest band to ever exist

[@mikes2082]

Pre-recorded studio instrumental.....live vocals..... Mick A+++

[@mxz766]

One of the best

[@janescribner8258]

I know this may sound like a strange thing to say but I never hear anyone mentioning how great a singer Mick actually is! I guess we take it for granted but man ... what a voice!

[@The98Dude]

i was 14 when I heard this song back in 1971 and it changed my whole life. Stones have been the soundtrack of my life ever since. Newer was a better rocker, never is a better frontman than Mick fxxxing Jagger

[@daisies53]

Another great song and a favourite!

[@garymyers2995]

Exile on main street IS their best album.

[@stickyfinger7903]

Yes

[@DirtyOldMountainGoat]

One of the dirtiest, filthiest, most best rock songs ever!

[@ronbateman72]

This is Mick at his best ever!!!

[@postglasto]

Not necessarily my favourite song of theirs, but Mr.Jjagger is certainly at the top of his game in this performance. Love it.

[@lebarosky]

Oh and has anyone noticed that, over the decades, with all the competition and imitation and whatnot, this guy is still the greatest front man ever. Ever.

[@jordanhill5238]

He got that hat from back to the future part 2

[@richsheridan8759]

It's about a Jamacain girl. Richard

[@johngemmell1225]

+Rich Sheridan Correct...Mick Jagger loved his South American Latino women.

[@richsheridan8759]

Thanks.

[@beyonceschild]

Since when is New Orleans in Jamaica?? use your brain.

[@James-xg4wj]

@Dee Jones the song has nothing to do with slaves or rape in any way, you fucking idiot, it's about the girlfriend mick had at the time, who was a beautiful woman of color. idiots like you are why racism is still an issue.

[@brittbritt5613]

@@johngemmell1225 you do know he have a half black daughter lol so he didn't love south American women THAT much

[@GirlyEnglishGamer]

what a racist song it's amazing how many time I've listened to it without bothering to actually listen to the lyrics

[@kirillzapple]

70s are coming back, 60s 50s and all those crazy good times

[@userstk]

In my case, I was sixteen and had just gotten enamored with this powerful number when I went to a beach on the east coast of Korea with friends for overnight camping. One morning at dawn, the guys next door blasted this song from a portable boom box and started dancing to it. The ocean and the smell of summer morning, wayward youths and blaring Brown Sugar. It was some experience.

[@davidnika446]

An ode to Thomas Jefferson?

[@johneaston197]

More a ode to Mexican heroin

[@Dean100able]

@joetufano719 Well good for you my man! You just keep on listening to the Stones because they are the best R&B band on the planet!! Glad to hear some young listeners still have a taste for the good stuff. I was born in 1967 and have seen The Stones live several times and believe me the don't dissapoint their fans. Happy trails to you......

[@OutkastedRadikal]

A band still making music for about 50 years like THE ROLLING STONES, is a gem hard to find !

[@turockandar]

The Beatles wrote circa 300 songs in only 8 years and revolutionized contemporary music...we tend to take this monumentous achievement for granted...in over 40 years the Stones have produced maybe 40 great songs but to find a mediocre Beatles song you really have to look hard...it is true that the Stone's good songs have more emotional impact and raw energy.

[@ETsonggalaxy]

The Rolling Stones have such an AMAZING rock sound like NO other Rock Band has had ever! Their sound systems are def A++++ I love this song so much! Edmondo

[@unsczombie]

I find it completely badass that rock and roll is still alive and well in the youth today!

[@crazytrain81]

My Dad and I agree, this was the best period of music for the Stones: Brown Sugar, Let it Bleed, etc. This is an amazing performance of Brown Sugar. Fucking epic!

[@TalismanTImes]

I'd say this song has one of maybe three of the best RnR sax solos of all times

[@betzdoodle43]

I went with my brother and his college friends from Tempe to Tucson to see the Rolling Stones when Sticky Fingers came out. It was the summer between my junior and senior year in HS. The tickets wer $6.00 each!!! Best bang for the buck ever. Talk about stardust in my young naive eyes. It was swell!!!

[@MountVicPlayers]

The Rolling Stones are without doubt one of the greatest rock bands ever.

[@kc2ulm]

Charismatic front man and great guitars-- vital ingredient

[@edbrand2788]

was lucky enough to get to see them at soldiers field in chicago on 7-7-77,journey opened for them it was fabulous my friends!!!

[@FanOfJanis]

Heck, don't let these people bother you, bro. Lessee: Greatest rhythm section in rock history. Greatest rhythm guitarist in rock history. Greatest frontman in rock history. Greatest riffs in rock history. Greatest balls-out rock in rock history. We could go on and on and on. The Stones are THE archetypal rock band: The model for how it's done. Say Keef live in 1979. He's way better than most people realize. But for The Beatles, The Stones ould be #1 and damned-near artery anyway.

[@GabeGuitarr]

I'm just so sad that nothing will ever be this great again. all the legends are in the past. nothing will ever be anywhere near as good (as far as music goes) anytime soon or ever again in my opinion. I've only been alive to see legends die. Michael Jackson, Kurt Cobain, and good music... At least classics will never die and the stones will keep on rolling!

[@TalismanTImes]

Many of their hits are not in the 60's, but later. The entire Emotional Rescue album in fact topped both the US and UK charts in the 80's. I also seriously doubt that most teenagers don't know who the stones are. Their last tour "the Bigger Bang tour" performed during 2005 - 2007 grossed 560 M which totally shattered ever previous record of any other artist, dead or alive, in any genre, anywhere in the world (and still stands). That does not go unnoticed even by the most dizzy headed teenager.

[@patrickbl8223]

I love this song i really do. I admire Mick & Keith so much. I even made a cover of this song, not cuz i think i am good cuz i ain't, but cuz i just can't stop doing it. Thx for all the good times Rolling Stones - I hope that i am able to see u next year.

[@meezerlover]

@williamsb99 I'm right there with you.....64! Looking back, at those days and all the groups that have come and gone, I like to think I was lucky to have been there to see these great groups in the very beginning of their careers. Amazing that Mick is -still- rockin. And he is older then us...lol The transistion from Motown music and the early rock and roll of the 50's to this was incredible.

[@tishmora6507]

One of the best live music performances ever Pre-recorded studio instrumental.....live vocals..... Mick A+++ "hear he whip the women just around midnight!" that part always make me :) lol!

[@Jaggerchick1]

I am old enough to remember sitting in front of the TV watching this after Tony Blackburn announced it, Long Live the Stones.

[@adonaldson618]

This song is brilliant! I love how Mick and Keith wrote about such a horrid, dark subject, and had people tapping their toes to it. One of my favorites!!

[@cherrybomb2600]

This song is so ingrained in my mind, & every time I hear it, it's better!❤ When the single came out, I listened over and over for hours before I turned the 45 over and listened to Bitch. So high on acid ❤

[@omarjosehernandezv.2809]

WOW,Mi banda favorita The Rolling Stones.Saludos desde San José Barquisímeto Venezuela.

[@tonymatheson8122]

A legend band to this day and never get tired of their superb rythym and beat, yet I'm getting older but I've never stopped enjoying their music - go the Stones

[@nerdtechstore2023]

perfect sounding band in the early years!!

[@milleroh]

I can almost hear the hatred and racist comments and letters that the Rolling Stones got after this tune hit. That's Jagger swagger! He wrote about what he felt and didnt give two shits about who would dissaprove. Love it!

[@cherrybomb2600]

Now, the Stones don't play it in concert and I am devastated!!! The climax of a Stones show is Brown Sugar!!!

[@anonymousmessenger23]

rolling stones are one of my faves :) why cant they make music like this nowadays..

[@neusacastro7323]

OLÁ que linda canção que lindo clássico que talento em uma só pessoa sem iguais amo todas são lindas uma relíquia para mim é um hino para meus ouvidos que lindo vídeo uma linda postagem obrigada uma linda semana Para todos

[@KaasKiller]

Wow, it sounds like their studio version, maybe better. Amazing!

[@Iamtheheatmiser]

why do so many people think this is one the greatest bands ever...Oh because they are

[@a2rodl]

I just learned reading Keith's book that the first line is actually skydog slaver, and refers to Duane Allman who was of course at that time the Muscle Shoals house guitarist and was there when they were writing and recording Brown Sugar... ah if only there were tapes of a jam of Keith and Duane playing together.

[@josesbox9555]

I would put Zeppelin up there with the stones but Im right there with you. One of the greatest bands ever.

[@FanOfJanis]

Totally agree with you! Heck, I've been thinking Mick was the greatest front man ever back in the 1960s. Yeah, I've been around that long. IMO: The Rolling Stones (especially in this era here) had the greatest rhythm guitarist in the business, the greatest rhythm section in rock history and, in 1970 once The Beatles bagged it, really and truly were The Greatest Rock Band in the World. Even Led Zeppelin and The Who, great as they were, cannot really claim this title. The Stone could.

[@plunderedmysoul.679]

the best version of this song ever..all the power...jagger amazing

[@norailiadis4244]

Love them both! somehow cannot make up my mind but the stones sure are one of the best!

[@TalismanTImes]

Definitely one of Rock 'n' Roll's all time greatest songs The lyrics make some folks cringe with embarrassment, others lash out in anger and a few find it mischievously amusing. To me it simply tells a story, probably part fact and part fiction, as all stories are. I really don't think the Stones were attempting to make profound social commentary here they were just writing a song, and a damn good one.

[@SmalltimeTopgun]

Man it pains me everyday that i was too young to comprehend how awesome it was that the stones played at the superbowl.

[@norjop]

This was my favorite Stones' tune in the 70s.

[@carlsusa6664]

Dirty racist song

[@MJPICKify]

@jimmydanpage 40 year olds were too young to enjoy the stones properly back then. Its more like the 60 year olds who were around for it all. I think what alot of us have realised is that this music was the best hence why we listen to it now and rave about it, 40 years on. Its the basis to all R+B, Pop, Rock that we have today.

[@kernriver1967]

God Bless the Dark Horse Tavern... Mahattan Kansas...1971 too much fun with the 3.2 beer and the Stones.. LOL

[@rolodexroulette]

this is their best live performance of this tune, please don't ever take this down.

How can anyone compare the Stones with the beatles ? 9 years compared with 50! You are so right dude !

[@BENJIMANBREEG33]

How could anyone be angry and arguing, while this piece of magic is playing?

[@Garoulic]

I Don't know your age and it doesn't matter to me. I'm a fan of four classic groups that you named and in my little opinion you can not compare ones with anothers. The times that ones lived are completely diferent to the others. And, yes, i've got listened enough of the full list and still there's no comparation between them...

[@麗蘭-w7l]

最高だぜ〜好きです🎉

[@FanOfJanis]

Okay, so maybe it's just me, but I believe this song is a contender for the best balls-out rock song ever. Lot's of great songs out there by The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Who, but at the end of the day, THIS is rock and roll, baby ... the way IT SHOULD BE ... down and dirty and kicking ass from here to The Promised Land! Second-greatest band ever? The Rolling Stones! To me anyway. Rock on, mo' fo's!!! Keef Riffhard for President!!!
