This song grows on you the more you hear it. It's like a drunken slurry mess and it's great. They have fun songs, serious songs, rockers, ballads...the Stones are obviously one of the all time greatest bands.
Yeah right, Al. Yesterday I heard this and it seemed too chaotic and noisy. But I'm hearing it for the second time today and already it's growing on me. I think there's something very Dylanesque about it.

@@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv the stones have done so many timeless masterpieces throughout the years im only 24 but the stones music will live through time forever and ever
This is one of The Rolling Stones' best 70's albums, and does not have a bad track: 1.Miss You 2. When The Whip Comes Down 3. Just My Imagination 4. Some Girls 5. Lies 6. Far Away Eyes 7. Respectable 8.Before They Make Me Run 9. Beast Of Burden 10. Shattered.
Same! When this came out, I was 11. It was on my birthday and my friend Bill Hall and I listened to this song over and over again, just to hear the "F" word :)
I miss the Stones when they were fearless. Mick's lyrics were as free and careless as his on stage antics - A beautiful thing! Shout out to Sugar Blue on the harp!
You mellow with age, simple as that. Also, EVERY great band/artist usually has a great run for a period of time. During that run, they establish a body of work, that forms the backbone for the rest of their career. For the Stones, it was 1964 to 1981. A 17 year run ain't bad at all.
I agree, but I also suspect that he sometimes hits the road in that nice new truck of theirs and cranks the volume up on some of the music he grew up on and says to himself, "Thank God I don't have to listen to that old white people's music." ;)
That instrument was a harmonica played by Sugar Blue, a guy the Stones basically got off the streets, busking. His harmonica work is all over the Some Girls album. Ron Wood tells in his autobiography that his jaw dropped when he first heard Sugar Blue play in the studio with them.
@@sandragray4598 He was probably paid standard session musician rates for his work. Just like they would've payed a Nicky Hopkins or Bobby Keys. Ron Wood also said that Sugar Blue didn't realize how talanted he really was.
4:08 Around the time this came out the Stones did Saturday Night Live, and there was a sketch in which Garrett Morris a TV talk show host interviewing Mick Jagger. He asked Mick about this line in the song, and then he asked Mick, "Where are these black girls? Do you have any phone numbers?"
As an old person, I was interested in seeing how you would react to this song. You reacted exactly like I did when I first heard it all those years ago. That was refreshing.
Just in case some of it got lost in the mix - Some girls give me money, some girls buy me clothes Some girls give me jewelry, that I never thought I'd own Some girls give me diamonds, some girls, heart attacks Some girls I give all my bread to, I don't ever want it back Some girls give me jewelry, others buy me clothes Some girls give me children, I never asked them for So give me all your money, give me all your gold I'll buy you a house in Baker Street, and give you half of what I own Some girls take my money, some girls take my clothes Some girls get the shirt off my back, and leave me with a lethal dose French girls they want Cartier, Italian girls want cars American girls want everything in the world you can possibly imagine English girls they're so prissy, I can't stand them on the telephone Sometimes I take the receiver off the hook, I don't want them to ever call at all White girls they're pretty funny, sometimes they drive me mad Black girls just wanna get fucked all night, I just don't have that much jam Chinese girls are so gentle, they're really such a tease You never know quite what they're cookin', inside those silky sleeves Give me all you money, give me all your gold I'll buy you a house in Baker Street, and give you half of what I own Some girls they're so pure, some girls so corrupt Some girls give me children, I only made love to her once Give me half your money, give me half your car Give me half of everything, I'll make you world's biggest star So gimme all your money, give me all your gold Let's go back to Zuma beach, I'll give you half of everything I own
I don’t think he ever sings “Baker Street”, it’s always Zuma Beach. I believe Dylan had a house there and he was getting a divorce at the moment, so Mick obviously must have known this and used the location for the song.
@@ArmandoMPR Yeah, I always heard Zuma Beach. It’s north of Malibu. I’m sure real estate prices are insane now, but back when this song was written, it was cheaper and less exclusive than Malibu.
The instrument that's hard to define is a "Blues Harp" which is a diatonic harmonica through a cheap microphone and little cheap amp turned up really loud so it distorts and sounds like a saxophone. It's called "Blues Harp" mainly due to Little Walter and Sonny Boy Williamson.
You should try “far away eyes” from this same album. Mick is hilarious in that one. Sometimes you have to pinch yourself that this dude was a bloke from south London
@@lewstone5430 That's not really Mick on those country songs..it's Hank Jagger...a long lost cousin who fled England in the late 40s just ahead of the law...not many people know this and I have said too much already....Cousin Lou
The original Some Girls album art was considered too risque when it first came out, it was altered to appease the censors. I still have that original album cover.
Ok you two, I'm a white boy and that was absolutely priceless watching you react. I'm glad You didn't get offended. I really do love the song. But I must admit, in 1978 when that song came. I thought Mick is a bit naughty here with these lyrics. Thanks for this. ❤😂🇨🇦
This is such a classic blues rock song. It’s spectacularly bluesy in its structure. After every lyrical verse we get a musical break. I read they just went on and on in the studio, and at some point Mick just called it and instructed the engineers to edit it into a song.
You guys nailed it - the Stones are probably the most playful big time band that I know of, possibly with Aerosmith coming in second since they aren't as big and were perhaps took themselves slightly more seriously. The Rolling Stones are such a great vibe, thanks for reminding me of that! I heard somewhere that in the studio, they just fool around and sound pretty bad a lot of the time (as experimemting and playing around probably should), and then suddenly they all get on the same page and magic just happens spontaneously. Producers and engineers just watch and listen in awe when it happens and they realize they are capturing THE Rolling Stones birthing another classic gem into existence. That's how I aspire to create much of the time - no effort, just play at let it come from the ether. Blessings to all!
Of course I saw the Rolling Stones sing this song at Angels Stadium back in Anaheim back in the 70s. The great Garrett Morris from Saturday Night Live was doing the news on SNL and the Rolling Stones were the guests and Garrett Morris asked “where are all these black girls you’re talking about?” lol
That instrument you hear throughout and at the end is an amplified harmonica, aka "harp" or "blues harp". It's a really groovy sound common in blues music. It's prominently planed on their "Midnight Rambler" too.
I really love the Rollin Stones, have for almost 45 years. Mick & I are almost exactly the same age, in fact. Their music is great, but a live video is a thousand times better. It just makes all the difference when you can see them making the great music you're hearing, especially Mick!
I had a pretty good idea Brad and Lex would like this song. It was just as fun watching your reactions! This is a song that needs loud volume and a great stereo to get the most out of it.
That line was pretty controversial when it came out. That’s probably why he sang it. And probably why the put movie stars on the album cover without their permission and then had to remove them. Controversy sells albums. Plus the music on this album is great. That helps too.
Arguably their best record. I love their Goats Head Soup record as well, my favorite songs Angie and Winter (Winter has always transported me outta here, real quick!). Fantastic reaction guys. A toss up what I like the most, the music or your reactions.
There is a great old Stones song that never made it on an album because it was only a track in a movie. Ry Cooder on a stinging slide guitar. The song is called 'Memo from Turner' very strong language references to sex and drugs.
The photo on the album cover was a take off on newspaper ads for wig stores. When some girls was released in 1978 newspaper still employed illustrators to draw the products they advertised.
One of the great Stones hidden gems. And it's a pretty fair effort to be a hidden gem or deep cut when it's the title track to one of their best albums!
Reporter: Why is the album named Some Girls? Keith Richards: Because we couldn't remember their fucking names. No saxophone in sight, only a bluesharp, played by Jagger. Keep diggin'!
Best reaction video ever...THIS IS A JEWEL!!! Thanks guys for having the nerve to do this...soo much fun..Peace, God Bless! p.s. if you ever want to hear them just bust lose and rock out, listen to "Rip This Joint" or "Neighbors" and please oh, please, do "Sweet Virginia"...Thanks Guys...enjoy the Stones...they are Jewels!
Believe me. Mick has the enjoyed the company of plenty of black women over the years! Not many performers can say they fathered a daughter (Karis from African American actress Marsha Hunt) 11 months before his then wife Bianca gave birth to one of his other daughters, Jade.
In reference to “the line”, Garrett Morris, on an SNL skit is giving his reaction. His one line at the end was something like “I just have one thing to say. ‘Where are these girls?’ I can’t find them.” SNL off the 70s, I doubt would do well in our modern PC world. I loved your review. The Stones did Miss You on SNL, and there were some interesting stage antics that occurred. :)
Great review guys. One of my farvorite Stones' album. Unbelievable. Friend of mine back in the day, when we were discussing our mutual respect for Bob Dylan's music. He replied, "Bob's a way of life"...that was thirty yesrs ago and I'm still a fan of Bob...same with the Stones. Old habits don't die, just fade slowly away.
This is an amazing album, start to finish. Saw this tour in 78, New Orleans Superdome. Opening acts that night were Van Halen followed by The Doobie Brothers. The Classic Era, nothing like it!🤘😎
They actually went back and changed those lyrics about "black girls." I went to a museum exhibition about the Stones. It was amazing.They had all kinds of stuff, from costumes and set designs to hand-written lyrics. One was a letter from a high school girl, very well written on some fancy prep school stationary, complaining about this song. The Stones replied, apologized and agreed to officially change the lyrics. It was all there.
Stones caught a lot of heat for that naughty line. Jesse Jackson and NAACP was all over they azz. They wound up changing that lyric on later releases of the album. Thanks for doing the original! I was in H.S. when this came out, my older brother burned it on cassette tape for me.
@@flyingburritobro68 That was a long time ago, so my memory is not the best. You are correct- On 6 October 1978, Ertegun met with Reverend Jesse Jackson, then leader of Operation PUSH (People United to Save Humanity) to discuss the lyric. The meeting ended with Jackson declaring the song to be a "racial insult" that "degrades blacks and women", threatening to boycott the record until a resolution was met. Ertegun concurred, saying, "It is not our wish to in any way demean, insult or make less of the people without whom there would be no Atlantic Records." After discussing the matter with Atlantic officials, who considered censoring the line, Earl McGrath, president of Rolling Stones Records, released a statement on 12 October on behalf of the band: It never occurred to us that our parody of certain stereotypical attitudes would be taken seriously by anyone who heard the entire lyric of the song in question. No insult was intended, and if any was taken, we sincerely apologise.
Brad's face was pure shock...worth every penny I spent requesting this song 🤣

It was a commentary segment on the news--not an interview.
That wasn't the only controversy either. Lucille Ball wanted her image taken off the cover.

As soon as I saw it was this song, I knew where they were going to pause the song. I was not disappointed. LOL!
Back in the day, they played this song and many like it completely uncensored on FM rock stations.
Yes they did. I played The Fish Cheer/I Feel Like I'm Fixin' to Die Rag on my college station in the 70s. Some folks weren't very happy.

Love this song, and what an awesome reaction. The Stones were one of my favorites when I was younger and I wasn't even born when they started playing.
One of the best Stones albums, not a bad track.
The killer harp work was from a one-time street musician named Sugar Blue, called by some 'the Jimi Hendrix of the harmonica'. Check out his work.
A good point about Stones shows. Looking back, often it was the songs they didn't play that made you realise how amazing their catalogue really is.
Mick underrated on the harmonica.

Great guitar in this song.
Check out their country song "Far Away Eyes", off this same album. Hilarious lyrics with a great melody in the chorus
Stone's concerts have like 5 or 6 hit songs that they always play, but mix it with lesser known deep cuts
There is a great old Stones song that never made it on an album because it was only a track in a movie. Ry Cooder on a stinging slide guitar. The song is called 'Memo from Turner' very strong language references to sex and drugs.
It’s on a bunch of compilation and greatest hits packages
It was in a movie Mick played in Performance I believe with Anita Pallenberg. Hope someone confirms this
The Girl with Faraway Eyes and Shattered are two more from this album y’all would really enjoy
Love ❤ the reaction!
Glad you could find the humor in this!
This album is full of bangers despite the racy lyrics of the title track lol 😆 brads face
Americans are so innocent, brought up in a censored world, This is nothing to The Brits its just expected and accepted. 👍
Once again the Worlds Greatest Rock n Roll band
I love this album! Far Away Eyes 👀
Thats why they were called the bad boys of rock and roll
Some Girls is the album that got me into The Stones, not a weak track on it!
Oh yeahhhhhhh .

One of the great Stones hidden gems. And it's a pretty fair effort to be a hidden gem or deep cut when it's the title track to one of their best albums!

He is a little slow maybe sheltered childhood. Raised well less street smart

Never changed the lyric on any release. They changed the cover as they had lawsuits from people who’s faces were on the cover without permission
@@flyingburritobro68 That was a long time ago, so my memory is not the best. You are correct-
On 6 October 1978, Ertegun met with Reverend Jesse Jackson, then leader of Operation PUSH (People United to Save Humanity) to discuss the lyric. The meeting ended with Jackson declaring the song to be a "racial insult" that "degrades blacks and women", threatening to boycott the record until a resolution was met. Ertegun concurred, saying, "It is not our wish to in any way demean, insult or make less of the people without whom there would be no Atlantic Records." After discussing the matter with Atlantic officials, who considered censoring the line, Earl McGrath, president of Rolling Stones Records, released a statement on 12 October on behalf of the band:
It never occurred to us that our parody of certain stereotypical attitudes would be taken seriously by anyone who heard the entire lyric of the song in question. No insult was intended, and if any was taken, we sincerely apologise.
@@flyingburritobro68 For sure though, when radio stations played it back in the day, did they not "Bleep" that line out?
Stuck the landing on this one, good job guys.
