The young man walks to the church. He is on foot to the funeral of his girl. The cortege passes. He sees the hearse and the funeral wreaths. On the way he sees young women in their summer dresses and they bring back memories of the happy times they had. He hangs back, because he knows this is their final goodbye. People passing turn away, knowing not what to say. The final cars have entered the churchyard. He swallows back his grief and follows them all in.

I believe the catchiness reflects how many cope with grief - dying inside but putting on a brave facade.

It is a funeral procession. A song about loss. Adopted by veterans of Vietnam-with reason.

My dad used to hang around with Brian Jones and Keith Richards in the 60s. When he died, Paint it Black was one of two Stones songs we played at his funeral.

He's not just sad and depressed, he's angry that others are not feeling the same way.

Sitar. An Indian Sitar is what gives the unique sound

This song comes from a time when it was not socially acceptable for men to express this kind of grief. The Stones opened a door for men's mental health with a driving, hard-hitting rhythm and a melody that kicks arse! Oh, I should mention Mick's vocal delivery, so evocative.

The song is about the loss of love and profound grief and depression. You are hearing the sound of a sitar that sets the dark hypnotic mood.

For us old folks that is a flash back to Vietnam. It was used a lot during that time period!
