In the song, his love has died. He wants to turn his red heart black (die). He wants to join her. He's not going to look at other girls. He doesn't care about sex. He doesn't want joy. He's in a dark place. His world is painted black without her. He doesn't want color. He wants to be with her. He doesn't want color, beauty, other girls. He wants to die. He wants the whole world to mourn with him---to be painted black...or that is how I always understood it.

Like the offspring the kids aren’t alright

This is truly a genius song. To me, it's a song about the horrible depression one would get after experiencing a really traumatic experience, like witnessing the death of a loved one, or in this case, the death of their soulmate. One would feel extremely depressed and would have feelings of wanting to die, to join them. Their whole world was once full of color and life, but with this traumatic event, their world has turned into a deep dark void. To any of you out there who have lost friends, family members, people that you love and care about, etc., you have my deepest condolences and my sympathies. Remember that you have people around you that will help you out. You are not alone.

Kinda akin to coming back from the Vietnam conflict. Which is basically what a lot of their songs were about - awareness of the evils of wartime propaganda.

When you lose someone you love, your whole world turns black. I went through it when my wife of 23 years passed away suddenly. Just seeing people happy makes you mad. Took years before the colors came back.

I've seen this one reacted to before.... bothers the hell outta me!

This song is also associated with the Vietnam war from back in the day, when our vets came home and what was going on in their minds and how the war messed them up. It's amazing how time and political correctness changes lyrics and their meanings. If you watch alot of movies/documentaries on Nam this song is usually played in them. This song came out just before the draft was getting started and guys were forced to go fight, many against their will. Then Vietnam Vets were treated like crap when they came home from the war and they've had to fight for all their benefits that they were promised. They had to fight more than one war in regards to Vietnam. This song for many Vietnam Vets is a theme song for them.

Man this is the most nostalgic song ever to me, coming home from school and dropping the needle on this record with my mom. I was addicted to this song.

Red is widely seen as the color of love. Black as the color of grief and moarning. Now paint that red door over with black.

Its not been the same without you. Hope you had a great birthday. Great reaction as always mr v 👍

The sitar in the back is just perfect !

Sometimes when you're really sad and angry, you can't stand to see other people laughing and having fun. Summertime is a bad time to lose the love of your life.

Welcome back, you were missed.Love the top you’re wearing. 😁

You have fun with your clips.. fooling us that you're just "high".. BUT so many times you listen and actually have the correct insight! It took me forever to sort out the dark song about mourning for a dead lover.. Sitting with the Fun "want to move" to music.. But you Got it right away! Congratulations on birthday and high subs.

I remember "Gimmie Shelter" being one of their most famous songs. Damn good one, too.

Great to see you!!! Awesome shirt! So close to 100k!! It's brilliant 👏

"Paint it.......me?" 😂😂😂 You are a trip bro. This song is funky as hell. I love it. Great vid

Hi Mr. V. I'm so happy your back. I saw you having fun at your friends place.missed you💕. I really like this song, loive the stones.😍

Try Rolling Stones - Angie - Waiting on a friend - She's so Cold - Sympathy for the Devil

The Hmms sound like they are repeating the verses: I see a red door and I want it painted black, no colors anymore I want them to turn black... You hear the words because they match the way the verses were sung, but since there are many verses the brain does not know which ones to assign making the words you are 'hearing' unclear. Another way to look at it, sometimes the guitarist will answer or mimic the singer by following the structure of the lines either in the solo or not; in this case instead of adding lyrics, since they pretty much said it all already, they just hmm'd the line structure. It also works to show the person is grief stricken and lamenting.

“Paint it Me” 😂😂 I don’t know why that made me laugh so hard!

Holy crap! The commercial that ran right after this had the Stones “She’s A Rainbow”! Now that’s irony.

this is nostalgia for me, "being bad" staying up at 2am on a school day to watch the vietnam war tv show that had this intro song and made sure mom did not hear and storm in and turn it off lol

this is a really good song. I find myself listening to this on days I feel a uproar of some sorts. Keep up the great work!! Much love from Gainesville Florida. 👽👽

Check out the clip from Apocalypse Now with the young guy played by a 14 year old Laurence Fishburne in the patrol boat when Satisfaction comes on the radio. still one of my favorite scenes.

Every time I hear this song it reminds me of my childhood it was the theme tune for tour of duty I use to love that programme

You were missed! Thanks for the Rolling Stones reaction! ♡

I could hardly wait till you got back!! You are the bright spot in my life right now. The song....I feel it exactly! I can't explain it but it is what I feel. Good to see your sweet lil face!

Yay! Glad you're back and ok. I was really starting to wonder if something happened and no one would upload to the channel to fill us in. Happy belated birthday!

He is singing about staring out a window at a funeral procession, hearse and cars going to the cemetery. Either his wife or girlfriend etc has just died, he is in a car looking through the window by the graveyard but can't make himself go with the others to the grave. Friends try to console him but can't relate to his pain. His heart shuts down going black and he wants the window and world to all go black too. He feels guilty when girls walk by because they are beautiful and remind him of the woman who died and he might be attracted to them

There’s a Spanish version of this song that’s incredibly awesome

The movie, “The Devil’s Advocate” (with Keanu and Al Pacino) ends with this song playing over the credits. It always makes me smile. 😁 (plus, I totally love this movie!) 💜

The Rolling Stones are awesome. This song is about a person overcome with grief due to the loss of a loved one. Unable to enjoy anything, bitter, and thinking a little about ending it all. Musically, it's super stylish, with pounding drums, humming, and a bit of Middle Eastern groove.

My favorite rolling stones song 💜 thank you for this, it's made my day

Happy Birthday man and it's great to have you back at it again.

Happy Belated Birthday! I hope you had a great weekend ❤ from 🇨🇦

I love your reaction. I never thought anout the song until now, I just loved the passion of the song. I think you're right, it's how you feel when life is going on around you and you're depressed and you just want things to be sad, but theyre not and everything is all mixed up. I think your words in the humming is their brilliant way of using what your brain already does. It blurs those two things....they know you know the words now so your brain already sort of years them when it hears those notes, but it doesn't actually hear the whole words because theyre not saying them. It expects to hear them, so it hears a faded version of them. #itsbrilliant I missed you!!

You don’t know how many times I have danced to this song 🤘The walls of the club where I went were really painted black! Love The Rolling Stones. Wait is it the first song you did by them? “Laugh I nearly died” “Play with fire” and “Sympathy for the Devil” are mandatory then. Mama told you so.

Haha you got me laughing rolling out of bed this morning from the start of your video. Bless your soul have a safe and happy New year. Merry Christmas.. ☮️,Vato from sac ca.

The Rolling Stones is one of the longest playing bands. They started in the 1960's and still rock to this day. Some think that the guitarist Keith Richards will actually outlive any other human on earth. It is amazing that he is alive today because of his earlier years lifestyle. I have also heard people make the comment that Keith Richards has 9 lives like a cat.
