THE ROLLING STONES - PAINT IT BLACK

Pete says: What do you say about this song that hasn't already been said? It's an amazing song which I remember hearing for the first time at the age of ten, and what an impression it made on me! Jagger's voice just cut through my soul, and that crescendo as the song builds and explodes! It's just brilliant. I'm not the world's biggest Rolling Stones fan, but that song ticks all the boxes and is a classic in my book. Every time I hear it, I stop what I'm doing and remember that ten-year-old boy mesmerised by it! Magic!
