Vinyl kills In your opinion what STONES songs have Brian written all over them. And not only ones he performed on but songs that possibly were about/or inspired by him.

Thank you!!!

Water Dragon Well, he didn't write this... but he reportedly lived it.


Heauton Timoroumenos
by: Charles Baudelaire

"No rage, no rancor: I shall beat you
as butchers fell an ox,
as Moses smote the rock in Horeb -
I shall make you weep,

and by the waters of affliction
my desert will be slaked.
My desire, that hope has made monstrous,
will frolic in your tears

as a ship tosses on the ocean -
in my besotted heart
your adorable sobs will echo
like an estatic drum.

For I - am I not a dissonance
in the divine accord,
because of the greedy Irony
which infiltrates my soul?

I hear it in my voice - that shrillness,
that poison in my blood!
I am the sinister glass in which
the Fury sees herself!

I am the knife and the wound it deals,
I am the slap and the cheek,
I am the wheel and the broken limbs,
hangman and victim both!

I am the vampire at my own veins,
one of the great loss horde
doomed for the rest of time, and beyond,
'to laugh - but smile no more.'

GerryS Dandelion, She's a Rainbow, 19th Nervous Breakdown, Miss Amanda Jones, Child of the Moon, Shine a Light (they've never said it was but it sure fits him)...a whole bunch of others.

(Back in the 60's my friends and I had a whole list of songs that we felt were about him.)

Glencar may have had a bit too much communion wine when he typed that. Lets cut him some slack and just assume that he feels terrible about posting that.

Cheers Glencar!

LOL

As long as no one mentions "Ballad of a Thin Man" as a song about "Mr Jones". Too obvious for Bob and lazy journalism on a par with the "Angie is about David Bowie's wife" crap.

Brian DID apparently think "Thin Man" was about him, though, but in the paranoid state he was often in, that isnt really surprising.
