I COULDENT GET "LIES" OUT.. SORRY.

[@jackolson8775]

Glad you are doing better, man. ✌🏼

[@charlielinville1384]

Hey Man! Glad you're doing better. My fave song on the album is Shattered. Nice to see ya back. 👍

[@joeking6763]

Here is a perfect example of Gospel Music inspiring Rock and Roll. SISTER ROSETTA THARPE - I would love to have her guitar!!! - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aX-pqqqHmcp-idE

[@gaylemitchell5881]

My brother and I used to sit outside of a black church just to listen to them sing, we never thought our church music was WORTH A DIME

[@peterfields4801]

A stroke of genius on a superb album!

[@falcon215]

I love bands who aren't afraid to step out of their established genres and just have fun. The weird thing is, this is a really great song!

[@Amaberean]

They are MOCKING country music, God, Jesus, christianity, etc. smh

[@chickmcgee1000]

I’m 63 now, this song was always my favorite on this masterpiece of an album, a close 2nd is Shattered. I grew up in west central Illinois farm country, my father and I were hard on one another as we worked together. One day, probably ten years after this record came out, he chuckled and recited the first verse of this song, and said he loved it. It was one of those small yet big breakthrough things that saved our relationship over the years. RIP Dad

[@BoxerRick]

I remember when this album came out. I was a little kid. Every song was 🔥. I love Respectable, Beast of Burden and Shattered most. My sister in law even made a joke bout 9 year old me running round her house going Shadooby, Shaboody....Lol. The 70s was wild. God bless you. Keep Rockin and lovin life

[@lancevaughn432]

The Bakersfield sound, Western, ”Merle Haggard”, “ Buck Owens“, “Dwight Yorkam”. Rolling Stones, definitely get their inspiration from everywhere. I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield.

[@american_cosmic]

'Country' is the word you were looking for... this is pure, American bakersfield-style Country music!

[@pb68slab18]

Every time I hear this, I imagine the Stones doing it on the '70s TV show Hee-Haw! 😂

[@carollittle1059]

Hell yea, Stones!!Stones!! Been a fan since the British Invasion, never heard Mick trying to sing country.

Well ...... if you like this then you should also like - DEAD FLOWERS - MEMORY MOTEL

[@sheilastutz6436]

😂

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

Ronnie Wood on pedal steel guitar. Very country Western influenced. "Before They Make Me Run" with Keith singing, and "Shattered" are probably my favorite songs on Some Girls album.

[@gerhardbraatz6305]

There seems to have been this thing about British bands making a song that sounds like American country, sort of like the Beatles with Rocky Racoon.

[@Music-Is-Real-Love]

I totally adore that you follow along with the lyrics. It is so important with classic vintage music when words really DO matter, so much. Because this whole track is a story with comedy, the lyrics are very important. Great reaction!!.

[@stevepincombe3836]

You have to watch the official video of this when you have some time.

[@floorticket]

I was twelve and still living with my parents in the East Bay when I got this album in 1978. Probably bought it at "Banana Records" in downtown Oakland. I remember thinking the name-drop of "Bakersfield" on this song was pretty cool considering my mom grew up there, and we spent Thanksgivings, Christmases, Easters, Summers, etc., visiting my maternal grandparents at my mom's childhood home there on Alder street up until the early 1990s.

[@marymargaretmoore9034]

I'm from the East Bay too (Berkeley).

a little bleary; worse for wear and tear.... back in 1870... seemed like I was late for for like; at that time...funny, I was born in Lodi, raised Modesto, then Oakland-san Francisco...moneyball aint got nothing

[@zitawhirlock813]

Definitely a spin on country music 🎸 I grew up playing country music 🎵 Bakersfield is where Buck Owens made his fame, and showcased other up-and-coming country stars, like Merle Haggard and others! Thank you for showcasing this song! God's Best & Bless to You! 🎸🎵

[@ianhamilton2035]

One of my most favorite Stone's songs!!! 😃

[@davescurry69]

The Stones actually sound more authentic playing country than actual country artists. They don't do it enough.

[@agitatedmongoose]

Actually 90% of their songs between 68-74 were country infused within a blusey rock and roll that they absolutely perfected (really up up to 81 with 10 albums in a row).

[@ktwebbdevil]

I said before the entire album is great ,hard to pick a favorite but Far Away Eyes and Some Girls are up at the top

[@mikewarker4445]

I warned my doggie in heaven that you ll be singing along to this one. You can’t help it you’ll just have to sing along

[@suzymckinney9678]

I absolutely love this song! This is my favorite song from this album.

[@terenzo50]

Yes, folks, even the Rolling Stones are allowed to have a bit of fun from time to time.

[@Boatzilla2]

I like your TV preacher routine. Spot on. Hilarious. That line "So I ran 20 red lights in his honor. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Lord." has been burned in to my mind for ever. I think of it every time I'm driving.

[@laurad7803]

My favorite is probably Respectable then Some Girls. The whole album is fire. Great reaction!

[@sylviapotter6328]

😂 I can't believe you reacted to this song, my brother r.i.p. was listening to this song and when I heard it I absolutely loved it but no one at all play it, I always thought it was so funny.my favorite song off this album was always Shattered Thank you great reaction as always

[@issa-ce1wy]

With tha STONES ya always on the right side of life

[@davescurry69]

Biz, my favourite track on the album is the gorgeous (and hilarious) "Far Away Eyes". Closely followed by "Before They Make Me Run".

[@jamesmcnaughton9575]

Every song on this album has been my favourite.....all depends on which one is playing

[@brianspangenberg9598]

Was in high school 1980 hanging out at a house party drinking and singing this song lol!

[@andrewcolicchio766]

They came out with regular and a disco album! I remember.

[@wtfchuck9100]

[@pappystar1]

A must! " Hey Negrita " ...... Talk about mixing it up!😄

[@dordtonline5340]

Far away eyes is like to be stone or out of reality

[@kbennett3274]

Favorites from this album are this song and Miss You. Can't pick one because it's not the same genre... which says a lot about their talent. An "arrangement" to meet a "Far Away Eyes" girl who might take off with a truck driver if you're "late", has quite a different meaning to me than many comments here.

[@chipmusick682]

Oh God, that was so FUNNY...I'm so glad you get the Stones, this is about when all the televangalist(sorry) started falling..(.late 1970s) thank you so much...Peace Friend...Please consider "Let It Loose" or "Shine a Light" from Exile on Main Street...

[@myownchannel247]

It’s their version of a country/blues, always loved this one, it’s a bit funny and whimsical. I still like Beast of Burden best though ✌️

[@tradeladder146]

The Stones are British but Jagger singing in this Accent is hilarious. 😂😂

[@Scatherfirst]

Their last flat-out great LP. The Stones were a blues band. They became the greatest rock n roll band in the world almost by default.

[@ianhamilton2035]

This is my favorite on this album!!! 😃

[@cmortenson3647]

this is what's right with country western music.

[@issa-ce1wy]

Well, the WHOLE Album is amazing, fresh, kicks asses and showed the punks how to do it right

[@angelsolanot8053]

Beast of Burden and Far Away Eyes.

[@AlexanderSalazar-f8g]

I've always loved respectable, but not really a bad track on this album. Love it!

[@DavidGarvinTechnophile]

Good observation, that this is a mix of southern blues, gospel and country. The Rolling Stones were masters at pretty much any music they did. My favourite from this album? I think "When the Whip comes down" does it for me. Thanks!

[@blueyzblue6391]

'Faraway eyes' is that thousand-mile stare someone gets after a history of overindulging in cocaine.

[@margiemcpeak9304]

🎸💯 The Stones gettin' down with that "corny country" vibe! Lol! It's hilarious to hear this superstar UK band doing "The Girl With Faraway Eyes"! I needed a pick-me-up tonight & you provided it BizMatik! Thank you my friend! 🔥 ☮ ❤ 🎶

[@keithschofield1158]

My favorite Stones album is Beggars Banquet they have a different sounding songs sort of country rock factory girl No expectations Prodical son Salt of the earth all great songs

[@kima.4268]

My very first concert was the 1978 Some Girls Tour for this album. Anaheim Stadium, festival seating, 100,000+ people. Stones were 5 hours late. Peter Tosh opened (member of Bob Marley's Wailers). It was a long day. Too long, but a good show. I paid $12.50 for the ticket. I have not seen them since and would NEVER pay the kind of insane money charged now to see the Stones or any band with the exception of a Led Zeppelin reunion!

Me and a group of friends listened to this album for a day a half on Qualudes. We had problems making it to the turn table to flip the album on the other side.You know how the turn table would play over and over, in between we'd tell each other to change it to the other side,somebody, please crawl over there. We were stranded out in the boonies had to call my friends parents to come get us. We didn't know we were talking in slow motion, his mom said to him,look what you've done to Brenda! I looked at him and said, yeah, it's your fault !

Total Classic man. The Stones' last great album IMO.

I think Tattoo You is their last must listen if you’re a huge music fan that only has time for the essentials. “Heaven” from that one was decades ahead.

The Stones are a better country band than most actual country bands. So much so that I've probably listened to this song as much as almost any Stones song. It just does something for me.

[@bobschenkel7921]

One of the best songs by The Rolling Stones, it's the best of two kinds of music...Country AND Western! Mick is channeling the Bakersfield sound, not the Texas Twang sound, but it's all good, because it's just music man. I'll put in a vote for "The Girl With The Far Away Eyes" as my favorite on this album. It is a classic.

[@jackolson8775]

This is the only great band I never got a chance to see live. I did see them on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1964 and a couple other times.

[@derjogderjog8031]

You must watch the video for this song..without the video DOES NOT DO IT JUSTICE.....it really brings out the parody of this song..and is a take-off on religion...which I found quite on point...and the expressions on all the band members are worth admission...it is that good..MICK'S facial expression alone is a must see....The Stones originally started by idolizing many of the famous black singers off the south....muddy waters, chuck berry, howlin wolf,,,,and learned much about the blues.....in fact Mick would order these albums from America and that impressed Keith so much they got together....and when they hooked up with Brian the nucleus of the stunning stones was born adding Bill on bass and Charlie on drums...and has been total magic since... By the way after all years the Stones have received a bit of criticism for BROWN SUGAR LYRICS and nothing could be farther from truth....Once they started receiving some fame they were instrumental in getting some of these black artists or genuises on TV for first time as in those days there were lots of rednecks running tv stations.. In fact the Stones refused to play an event in the American south due to audience being segregated...and to the Beatles credit they did too... Moreover the Brown sugar lyrics use the word young girl and black girl interchangeable and the brown sugar refers to heroin...commonly called smack... BOTTOM LINE...Mick also idolized James Brown and would try to imitate his moves in early days until he hired his own instructor... There is absolutely no chance of Stones and most British 60's bands of being prejudice...Thankfully they were not growing up with some of the rednecks in the American South at that time...and they loved these black artists... Just go back and review the records and you will see... Kudos to Beatles as well

[@somersetcace1]

Really, it's a parody of the type of gospel country that was popular in that place and time. The funny thing is, it's incredibly good. Keep in mind, these are British guys imitating an American based subculture of the day as if they grew up in it.

[@827dusty]

This was flat out The Rolling Stone's take on a "Country/Western record theme. In Fact, they did an entire album in this Genre called "Country Honk." Didn't hear a lick of Blues in this at all.

Black gospel music had a ridiculous amount of influence on Rock. Find you some Sister Rosetta Tharp videos to watch. Her style of gospel created the basis of Rock of electric rhythm guitar playing. Her vocals and her Gibson SG influenced so many great guitarists and singers of all colors and races.

This was the one country song that made it into the album. They actually recorded a bunch of them during the sessions. The second disc from the deluxe edition of the 2011 reissue is basically a country album. I think it’s pretty fantastic. It would’ve been amazing if they had actually released it back in the day after Some Girls.

[@DrVonChilla]

Indeed....the LAST CLASSIC Stones album. It's the soundtrack to my late 1970s high school years. There is NO WAY I could pick a favorite track.....I hear it as one cohesive unit. 😄

[@mikecaetano]

Ron Wood plays the pedal steel guitar on this and does a bang up job of it too! "Far Away Eyes" was the B-side of the single "Miss You", which went to number one in the U.S. charts in 1978. Disco, rock, country all mashed together on seven inches of vinyl that sold for a buck! The blues feel is what the Stones bring to what otherwise was supposed to be send up of what in country music was called "the Bakersfield sound", typically associated with Buck Owens and Merle Haggard, in contrast with the music produced in Nashville, Tennessee. The opening line about Bakersfield suggests it along with the steel guitar licks punctuating the song. The Beatles famously covered the Buck Owens hit "Act Naturally" on their 1965 album "Help!". Remember "Honky Tonk Women" and what you termed "barnyard rock"? This is more or less an extension of that in line with a batch of other tunes from over the years -- "Dear Doctor" from Beggars Banquet, "Love in Vain" and "Country Honk" from Let It Bleed, "Wild Horses" and "Dead Flowers" from Sticky Fingers, "Sweet Virginia" and "Torn and Frayed" from Exile on Main St. The Rolling Stones were from London and part of the "British Invasion" in the sixties. But American music was their forte -- blues, rock, country, gospel.

You nailed the late night preacher show impression.👍👍 I remember those. They use to come on after midnight and only last about a half hour. We had an old couple who tried to sell you religious roots and herbs. Crazy 😄 That's a great tune, one of my favorites. It blew my mind the first time I heard it on the radio. Wasn't expecting that from the Stones. I'll have to give it a tie with Beast of Burden, for a favorite from this album. Glad to see you're feeling better Bizmatic. And great reaction!
