Paint It Black (The Rolling Stones)

The Rolling Stones: the band have had a big influence in the rock history and are still a big inspiration for ather big rock stars. Their most song are about how hard life is and always will be.

 

Pait It Black: the song is about a depressif man. They song is written how the man sees the world and how he want it to be. No coulors and everyting back (no good things, only bad things).

I like this song a lot. When I heard it for the first time it was like on understandable. But when you listen to with attention you wil understand it.

I think this song is still populair beceause it is easy to listen to and it has a clear subject (depression) and of course are The Rolling Stones very populair!

 

lyrics:

“Paint It Black”

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors any more, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by, dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goesI see a line of cars and they’re all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby, it just happens every dayI look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door I must have it painted black
Maybe then I’ll fade away and not have to face the facts
It’s not easy facing up when your whole world is blackNo more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comesI see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors any more, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by, dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes

Hmm, hmm, hmm,..

I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black

Yeah!

Hmm, hmm, hmm…
