How does Amber get suggestions? Discord? Cause girl, if you're into the "bad boy" side of the Stones, you really need to react to "Some Girls". You might want to do it on After Hours though ;) It has an instrument you love - lips sealed.

2025-12-08 01:00:20 +0000 UTCThere’s video of Mick and Keith from 1970 about a year before this song was released where they’re talking to Ike and Tina Turner about the song. They perform the song in its embryonic version and Tina is digging it. Ike? Not so much. We can debate the lyrics and the meaning behind the song years and decades later. But as far as The Rolling Stones go, I think they always had a great affinity and respect for black musicians and African-Americans in general. In retrospect, could they have done it better? I’m sure if you ask Mick and Keith they would say yes.

2025-12-07 03:29:11 +0000 UTCMy friends and I used to love dancing around to this song, yelling "yeah, yeah, yeah, whoo!". We had no clue what the song was about. The Stones have some real bangers with very dark lyrics.

2025-12-07 03:13:26 +0000 UTCLots of topics/subjects in this song, which had me and a couple of my brothers arguing about what the lyrics meant when we were kids when the "Stcky Fingers" album came out. I love the way Amber grooves to songs she likes, and I gotta say that "Brown Sugar" is now my new nickname for Amber as it is so fitting for such an amazing beauty.

2025-12-07 00:27:33 +0000 UTCTo be honest, I always thought Mick was crushing on women of color, I was oblivious about the heroin reference...

2025-12-07 00:24:27 +0000 UTCNew Orleans is my favorite city in the country. The first time I stepped foot on the soil, it screamed to my pirate soul. I know that my energy has existed in that place long before this physical body ever visited. And the old cemeteries with all the mausoleums... I fell in love with that place. 💜🤘

2025-12-06 23:03:17 +0000 UTCYes, there's a lot to unpack with this song. It touches on a variety of topics (slavery, sex and drugs...brown sugar is slang for heroin). In Mick Jagger's own words: "All the nasty subjects in one go. I would not write that song today." May he wouldn't, but is it okay for me to say I'm glad he did. Musically, this song is a banger. Not my favorite on the Sticky Fingers album, though. That honor would go to "Wild Horses."
