🎵 Rolling Stones - Angie REACTION

[@loristone9242]

My Daddy used to sit and listen to this song and eventually learned to play it on his acoustic guitar when my Mom divorced him and married another man. I was only about 7 years old, and didn't understand he was grieving the loss of his marriage and his family. Looking back as an adult, I know how heartbroken he was. Such a sad beautiful song.

[@jefflast9489]

For some reason , maybe its my headphones but you can also hear Kieth singing it too .

[@NYVoice]

1973 in the winter. Sat on a wooden fence at the end my snowcovered street with a Panasonic transistor radio when I first heard this. A treasured memory.

[@wickedmirage]

In 1984 when I was 16, my best friend was a another girl named Angie. She was 16, waist long blonde hair and tall as the summer was long. We did everything together, where 1 was found the other would be too. One day, she just disappeared without a trace. Weeks rolled by they could not find her. The 45 of this song was in constant play on my stereo as I cried and prayed they'd find her. Months passed and I got a phone call - it was her! She said "Baby - it's me! I'll be coming home soon." and then she hung up. They traced her to California, long way from Omaha, NE. She'd been taken by an Afghan guy. She was never seen or heard from again. That was 36 years ago. I still think of her, I still miss her and still song still brings tears to my eyes.

Angie is a metaphor for a heroine addiction that he was getting over. Go back and listen to the words again. It’s amazing. The Rolling Stones were masterful in their lyrics.

[@Mike-gn4un]

I think your right Keith was having drug addiction treatment and when he was starting to feel better wrote the track

[@user-he2rv4pq5k]

@@Mike-gn4un yeah, I think that’s it exactly. Amazing lyrics

[@paulrevere-e6y]

Richards wrote it while getting over his heroin addiction, it's not about heroin itself

[@paulrevere-e6y]

“I wrote ‘Angie’ in an afternoon, sitting in bed,” the Rolling Stones guitarist wrote. “Because I could finally move my fingers and get them in the right place again…It was not about any particular person, it was a name, like ‘Ohhh, Diana.’”

[@greggburke3770]

How is this for an absolute mindf@ck? Keith Richards wrote this song while about trying to say goodbye to his relationship with heroin. He used the name Angie to represent the drug because a sing serenading heroin was not likely going to be commercially successful. So when he writes, "With no lovin' in our souls, And no money in our coats" he was talking about how heroin drained him of feeling love and made him numb, and broke.

[@John_Chu]

Angie is David Bowie's ex-wife. At the time Mick wrote this song, he was very close friends with David and his wife. Maybe more than socially. Wink wink.

[@nthdegree1269]

Actually, Keith Richard's wrote the song. here is an excerpt from his auto biography "Anita was down the road having our daughter, Angela. Once I came out of the usual trauma, I had a guitar with me and I wrote 'Angie' in an afternoon, sitting in bed, because I could finally move my fingers and put them in the right place again, and I didn't feel like I had to s--t the bed or climb the walls or feel manic anymore. I just went, 'Angie, Angie.' "

[@isabelsilva62023]

@@nthdegree1269 Yes Keith came up with the title and wrote most of the song but it certainly is not about his daughter, in the 1960's there was no way to know the gender before the child was born.

[@mage1439]

@@isabelsilva62023 I mean, he said his wife was having her, presumably at that moment. It's not weird to think he could have put the name in there later, it's not as the band recorded it as he wrote it.

[@nthdegree1269]

@@isabelsilva62023 It started as a name associated with Anita his wife, Then of course his daughter's name is Angela. They may have discussed the possibility of boy or girl names and maybe that's what stuck with him. It's certainly not about David Bowie's wife.

[@magneteye]

Angie said she would find Mick and David naked in bed together often.

"AAAH -Angie AHHHH-Angie" I love Lexie's impression of Mick Jagger :)

[@jonsey156]

This is a truly beautiful song !

[@bobschenkel7921]

Among the few acoustic songs by The Stones, along with "Wild Horses" and sorta in "Dead Flowers", "Angie" was Mick trying to express his hippie, flower child, true rolling stone self. 'Nothing holding me down, I'm going off on my own path', that sort of thing.

[@donnierichardson2309]

Love the Stones this song is off the Goat Head Soup Album the Album has many great songs on it

[@SheckyBeagleman]

I love Lexie's singing and mannerisms impressions of Mick Jagger. Nails IT! So entertaining! She got it!

[@howardbrown911]

This song and "Miss You" are my favs for the Stones. Such a sweet song about a breakup. The reason for the split seems not to be because of a lack of love, but because of the fights brought on by lack of money and the couples' needs not beig met. Such a wonderful song that reflects reality so well. Great music too!

[@Shootingstarcomics]

Naw man, Angie put a scratch on his Dodge Charger so he hit the road. Miss You is my favorite, especially the long version.

[@johnstjohn6658]

Mick Jagger wrote this song about David Bowie’s wife. Jagger was in love with her, not sure if Bowie knew it are not at the time, but after this song came out he sure as hell did! 😱

[@marialupinacci5283]

But It was also a rumor at the time that Angie walked in on her husband and Mick in bed together. So is the song about Angie or David? Lol

[@MichaelSSmith-hs5pw]

This is the only Rolling Stones’ song that I really love! It’s so sad, and just tugs at you, and brings me back, in a way.

[@michaelchristopher3845]

Keith, who wrote the majority of the song’s music and lyrics, said in his autobiography that the name Angie came to him while in Switzerland detoxing from his heroin addiction. “I wrote ‘Angie’ in an afternoon, sitting in bed,” the Rolling Stones guitarist wrote. “Because I could finally move my fingers and get them in the right place again…It was not about any particular person, it was a name, like ‘Ohhh, Diana.’”

The Stones defy definition. They can literally do anything musically. Their body of work with all the variations of styles and such is simply astounding.

[@OregonDARRYL]

They did every genre - and well - almost as if they are trying to prove no one even comes close to them. I think they won the discussion.

[@nealm6764]

Definitely a "We love each other, but this just isn't working, and we both know that it will never work" song. Those are the hardest, because if you are not careful and honest about things you can lose huge chunks of time to them. Years.

Rolling Stones "Dead flowers" and "Sister Morphine" are songs you should try that NO ONE reacts to. Continue to be trend setters, give them a try !

[@docbearmb]

Let me second that sentiment. No body, no band ever did a song like Sister Morphine. The highlight of it, in addition to Jagger’s dramatic singing performance, is the unparalleled slide guitar of Ry Cooder. Just haunting! And Dead Flowers is a outpouring of disdainful bitterness that only Dylan has ever come close to. I love it.

[@paulbugel2164]

I love when Lex imitates the singers.

[@UnexpectedTurnOfEvents]

When I was a child I thought that if they really loved each other it wouldn't have mattered that they had no money in their coats, but once I grew up I understood that sometimes my grandmother's saying "Quan ke mancia la minestra, l'amor al va fora da la fenestra" (when you don't have soup, love goes out the window) is true... Poverty can certainly take a toll on a relationship. When you have money problem you start arguing, and stress keeps you from appreciating what you have -- each other -- and make wrong choices, which then compound the problem. It doesn't have to be this way, but it's an all too common thing.

[@WindmillChef]

At the time it was rumored that the song is about "Angela Barnett", David Bowie's first wife when they were splitting up. This song is just crafted magnificently in its simplicity and Mick Jagger's vocal performance is epic, you live the sadness of a break-up when listening to this song, like you are there, so convincing is the way Jagger tells the story. You just never tire from listening to this song.

[@sarahzentexas]

Allegedly written about David Bowie’s ex wife Angela Bowie. They were all…uh…extremely close when they were young and wild.

[@mpmlopes]

This is not true though. On his autobiography Keith says the song was about his daughter Angela, but at the time he didn't want to admit it because he's "not the type to be writing about my babies and shit".

Actually in Keith Richards autobiography in 2010 he said he wrote the song after getting drug addiction treatment in 1972. He said it wasn’t named after anyone or about anyone in particular His daughter Angela had not yet been born (although her birth was imminent) but he didn’t know the sex of the child until she was born.
